Don't get the mofo's...trust me...you'll be disappointed in them. I used to be an installer for quite a few years, and the power accoustic stuff just doesn't last, and never handles what the claim the ratings are.
Now then, that being said...
Pioneer Deh-7700mp headunit
Rockford Fosgate Power 6.5's in the front and rear
MB Quartz tweeters front and rear
1 10" Alpine type-R firing forward for mid bass
2 Treo Engineering CSX 12"s firing rear in custom designed slot port enclosure
1 Treo Engineering SSXD1500.1 amp powering the 2 Treo subs...rated at 3000w-rms@1 ohm
1 Orion cs500.5 5 channel...powers the Alpine 10 and the Rockford 6.5's
1 Treo Engineering ssx125.2 2 channel powering the MB tweeters
All signal fed through an old rockford powered crossover
All power wires run in 0 guage, sub wires run in 8 gauge, speakers run in 12 gauge
Rewound alternator that puts out 250amps...run through 2 150amp breakers and fuses on every amp.
So far max recorded DB at a local audio competition was 161.3db...could be alot more but space is limited and i think i'm going to sell most of it as it weighs a ton and makes my car very slow...

Sherwoods? damn...i used to run those clunkers in the early 90's. As for the specs, it's all in the box and the tuning. I've been building systems for quite a few years and honestly those treo's are incrdible...i'd run them against anything orion, JL audio, MTX, or any other big name has. They're efficient as all hell, and the amps are underrated like crazy. But i'm done with the audio scene...it's too overrated and too flashy anymore, besides the fact that i have a 60% hearing loss because of listening to them for so long. Save your ears...go fast instead ;)

Re: audio systems people
 
I try to do both lol read my sig :P Yes that run was with the entire audio system intact. Hence the reason for such shitty 60' times on slicks lol. Can you say ass end squat?@!! Recently I am getting back into the audio show scene and thought the hell with going fast. Its plenty fast for my likings and I listen to my tunes way more than I visit the track or street for that matter. I definatly dont need any speeding tickets :)

The Sherwood btw is one of their rarest amps ever made. Infact you probably wont even find any info about it anywhere. Its an AX-6275 5x35 watts RMS and 1x100watts rms. The sub channel puts out almost as hard as my 750. Mind you that was old school 12 volt system specs so its more like 50x5 and 200x1. The DTS controller is an analog to digital converter for surround sound and it works damn good for movies and what not.

Basicly it sounds like my orion 5 channel which weighs in at 50x4rms and 300x1rms @12.2v. Supposedly with the newer CES rules for classifing amps is supposed to bring all the specs and ratings back to what they used to be years ago. Unfortunately most amps are still rated peak wattage and at 14.4v. My old Memphis audio 1000d actually had ratings on it for 12.2, 14.4, and 16v for those who had the capability to run higher voltage systems. For the money they're a really decent amp with a decent power output, most of the time you can snag one for under $600 as compared to the $1400 price tag of the Treo's mono-block. If you're getting back into the audio scene, take my advice and at least look into the Treo's subwoofer line. No frills, but excellent quality and sound and if you can find a dealer for them you'll actually be surprised at the costs.

Re: audio systems people
 
I would but I myself am an installer. We build our speaker "tubes" inhouse and carry our own brand of custom designed speaker made by Bumper. Hence TM Rush Bass Moniters. They do slam pretty good but not the cleanest sounding sub I will admit that. They are a pure SPL sub. the store owner is gonna give me hell for running my 2 Orion H2's lol. I love SPL but I miss the deep bass. 150 DB is plenty in a daily driver IMO. Since we are off topic heres a look at our shops old school 164db demo truck. 4 Earthquake D3's are pushing the subs. Thumbnail pics to keep it small. click them.

This the tubes we build and sell. 15,12,10,8, and 6. The 6's suprise everyone that hears them. Can easily outdo may 10's lol.
