Oh damn, are those the subs that best buy was selling? The ones with the neon that look cool as hell?

How do those sound? Can they get loud at all? I've been looking into subs recently and was wondering how low they can get and how they sound.

Yeah they are. Ive got them running on 750 watts between 2 amps and the stock head unit. They actually hit really hard for the money. I bought them off a friend for $60 planning to upgrade to alpines later to match my door speakers but never found the need for it. I'd reccomend them to anyone.

Awesome, I might pick those up and give em a go if I can find some for cheap. I was looking at alpines for mine. Type R would be what I'd get, but I can get Rockford P3s that can hit about the same for cheaper.

But hey, good to know they're alright for the price. Nice Riv too. I don't normally like the baby blue color much, but it looks nice on our cars.

Wow, I love that gunmetal gray color! AA has the same paint, I think. The Cadillac crest and wreath on the roadmaster is a little much in my opinion, but you can still call it a bully without it. The front end of that car looks intimidating, with the trapezoidal grille and headlights.


Is that a red interior on the Riv I see? Also, where are you in NY?

Im from Catskill, about a half hour south of Albany. I saw the LVD thread and definately plan to show up.

Also, sorry on the red interior, its black. I was going to include some interior pics but I need to clean it first razz

But it looks like a gray unless your nose is on the car, then you can see all the different colors they use.

Yeah, mine's the same color as AA's. I have yet to see another Riv that's the same color as ours, which I love. But I've seen green, gray, and a little bit of a coral pink type-color in certain lights when I look at it.

Anyway... slate green ftw!

The Rivs seem to change colors in light for everything but black. Some of them are pearlescent and others are metallic, but lots of the colors come out at night if there's light around.
