    Shipping Help

    is there a way i can request a different shipping company.. I would prefer not to get UPS to. I have had problems with them in the past and am not impressed it will be a 15" BL going to Canada. Please let me know.. if its UPS i might not be able to buy this product

    15" BL Power Handling

    thnx ! i just want it to be noticeably louder than my 2 12" MTX Jackhammers which are getting 250 RMS each.. do you think they will be ? and LAST questions for you lol ... my budget allows for eathier just the cooling option or the Hyper pole and Flatwind.. Which one would be best for power and life span ? well the hyper pole option comes included with the cooling so check the cooling and flatwind ive done a lot of research and i heard the aq1200d is a very good amp.. is that true ? anyone know of any problems with them im guessing i can hook that amp to 1 ohm with the BL ? and i believe i get the D2 for 1 ohm ? yes thats a solid amp for the price..correct buy a duel 2 BL I was just wondering what gains should be set at on an amp with getting full RMS output without clipping or ruining the amp and or subwoofer? THNX!

    15" BL Power Handling

    Hey guys Im set on buying the 15" BL the options im looking at purchasing is the Hyper Pole and Flatwind Coil and Daily im looking at getting the Hifonics Brutus Bxi1610D amp which puts out 1200 RMS at 2 ohms and 1600 RMS at 1 ohm. I would rather have it on 1 ohm but can the BL with those options Handle that power Daily with no problems.. I wont be blasting it full too much. If not then i guess i gotta settle with 2 ohms but i heard Hifonics RMS is underrated? I have stock electrical with Alpine Deck and a oversized Capacitor with 4 Gauge wire. Dont know the measurements but i'm going to put it into a ported box thank you !

    15" SSD Handling with BP Power

    well i have the capacitor now. i got it for free but its really good. I noticed a bit of a dfiference but when i have money i will install the Big 3 and replace the cap with a yellow top. 2 ohms = Dual1 am i correct ?

    15" SSD Handling with BP Power

    Power handling is install dependant. As for what is best, what are your goals? LOUD... i think im gonna order a 15" BL and throw 1200 RMS at it at 2 Ohms. Ported box with my capacitor and in the summer going to do the Big 3 upgrade just want it to be noticeably louder than my current 2 12" MTX Jackhammers that are getting 250 RMS each. In a sealed box The BL is the right choice for that, maybe a good agm battery instead of the cap. Do the big 3 as soon as you can. im looking at runnin the cap and getting the Big 3 ASAP! and when i got some spare cash im gonna invest in a yellow top to replace the capacitor

    15" BL Power Handling

    since you have to ask then run it at 2 0hms but it will be fine on 1 ohm as well if you set your gains right and can control the volume knob. Check out Audioque AQ1200D for amp alternative as well. would the sub last long if i just turned down the gain and volume on the amp at 1 ohm ? or would it be more beneficial if i just had the gains and volume up and set up on 2 ohms.. at 2 ohms you need to order Dual 1 ? am i correct yes the sub would work just fine if the gains are properly set....<double read that...but i would suggest also getting the cooling option on the BL also. if the gains are set accordingly it will be fine. I would just get a duel 2 BL and wire it to 1 ohm ohhh ok... I guess i will just find out the proper gains settings for that particular amp! thnx.. Would the bass booster blow the sub if i turned it on every once in a while.. im still debating if i should play it safe at 2 ohms putting out 1200 RMS or just take a chance with the 1600

    Help Please

    hey guys! i would appreciate some imput from everyone here k so, right now i got 2 12" MTX Jackhammers with a sony xplod amp.. It pounds pretty hard but i've been doing some research, and im set on getting a FI 15" sub and a Hifonics amp.. But I've got a few questions - Is that $90 difference that i would be spending for the BL be worth it over the 15" SSD? (BL with Hyper Pole and Flatwind) (SSD with copper coil and BP Power) - Im looking at just a one sub setup, so do i order Dual 1 or Dual 2 ? the amp at 1 Ohm puts out 1200RMS and 2 Ohms is 900RMS would i hear a big difference in the BL over the SSD. Thnx guys!! Appreciate it

    Help Please

    thnx for the help with the dual 2 and im liking the cop turner lol, but would i hear a large difference with the same power going into each sub ? is it worth $90 ? or should i use that 90 for a better box and to get tuned cant dual 2 only be set up to 1 ohm though? im not sure if want to use 2 ohm or 1 ohm. and does 1 ohm lower the amps life time?
  22. DCarter

    Dual 1 or Dual 2

    can a dual 2 also run 2 ohms ? i know it can run 1 ohm
  23. Whats a good amp that puts out about 1000RMS on 2 ohm for a cheap price thnx for the help! stupid budget
  24. im getting an Fi sub... if the amp is expensive, the SSD if not expensive i want the BL... just 1 15"
