    Perhaps an Adire Tumult or two if you can find them?

    What did you tune your previous box to? If more than 22 hz or so, that may have been a problem.

    I don't want used really. I've had a lot of adire gear. I don't need anymore.

    The tune was in the low 30s. It was crazy peaky.I wanna stay will sealed for ease of box design also.....

    i can use whatever as long as it performs with power and ohm load i have. i've considered everything from one high powered 10 to a stack of 18's........ but i've been out of the game for so long that i have no idea where to go look....

    so i haven't been on here for awhile since been i have been extremely busy with my new house, puppies, and building my currect truck but now that summer is coming around it is time to relax, open up the windows and blast some tunes. so here is my question.

    i have a behringer 2500 for my sub duties in my home theater. i'm looking for a sub or subs that handle music well in a home theater application while sealed. i've tried ported applications in my house and with vaulted and peaked ceilings it makes it way to "peaky" and was not to my liking at all for all kinds of music. so what subs should i look into for a floor firing sealed applcation. size isn't a concern and i'll build the box myself so i can use whatever internal space. i'm just looking for an overpowering sub stage to keep up with rock and rap with my current 7 speaker ht set-up since i usually use all speakers in 7 channel stereo mode when cranking the tunes and working around the house.

    thanks for the help in advance hopefully i can order something this week since it's driving me nuts with no low end grunt at the moment

    actually, i think its actually my sub now thats sucking. to chitty of sub and to high of tuning. it should be putting out more output for the power its getting. hopefully i don't pop the sub haha. i'm lost now i played a lil john song and it was louder then chit. change songs with a different tuning and it thorughs it into clipping or has crappy output

    so i finally hooked up my new yamaha 661 with my new behringer ep 2500. just used my sub out to an rac to an rca.xlr adapter. just temporarily hooked it up to my ported kicker til i decide what ht set-up i want. now here's my problem. there is almost no output from my sub, with much more power then my speakers i can't even hear it because when i turn it up my new ep2500 almost instantly goes into clipped and kills the signal. any ideas? i'm such a newb to ht it hurts

    ive seen no problems with my short use of irragi's but that is if you can get ahold of him and get what you want. also fuse everything imo. not at 400 amps is it really a fuse since you'd probably burn your wire long before hand, but you can get anl fuses from 250-400 amps

    imo if he was going for every tenth he wouldn't be using 2 guage wire or a 165 amp alt when they make like 400 for those jeeps, hell i was gonna put a 300+ into my 96 cherokee and i didn't give a chit about the meter. get some 1/0 and pull the stock chit off. it's ugly and has asmall guage on those jeeps anyways and mine had some piece of chit termianls and terrible crimps from the factory. or if you need that tenth that may or may not exist use two runs of 1/0 for extra DBZ, or better straight bus bars. and yes i'm being a smartass

    i'm just using for subs and i only need 1600 watts out of it. also i'm gonna use the adapters they have at guitar center when i pick it up. they have some sweet ones and thousands of types to choose from. as for the fan being loud i could care less as it won't be any where near me. as for a "preamp" i'm not really gonna use a strictly pre amp. i'm gonna steal the sub output signal from either my NAD receiver or my new Yamaha 861 reciever i pick up for x-mas. thanks for the link on the adapters thou. hopefully there is a bridged mode on the 2500 so one input source feeds both channels.

    I'm not upset or anything. I just laugh how people say one product sucks then compare it another that costs atleast twice as much. It better be twice as good for twice as much. As for performance what do you mean. If its behringer or a damn crown they both out the power I want. I don't need any crossovers or filters, I don't need a fancy name or buttons. I just want power and the behringer can do that just fine IMO.

    Sorry I guess next time ill spend hours searching online for used goods that cost twice or five as much without a warranty, have to pay shipping, rather then drive 2 minutes from my house for brand new, cheaper, warrantied goods that do the same exact thing.

    Sorry end rant

    so i was bored today and went to guitar center to play with some eq's and some of the rack amps and tower speakers i could never afford. well i remembered i want to look at the behringer ep2500 to power what i want for subs in my ht. i talked with a pretty cool actually knowledgable guy. asked about the amp. said he didn't have any in stock and went and look at em online. http://www.guitarcenter.com/Behringer-Euro...544-i1145402.gc , so we talked alittle bit and he pulled them up on the computer to see if any other stores stocked them locally, there wasn't but he found this. if i was willing to wait a week behringer would mail one to the store for $199, $150 off no questions ask. how could i turn that down. my amp should be here next thursday or friday. so just to figure out what adapters i need and i'll be ready to pound the walls. so if you guys want one and your guitar center would order you one they are 199 :)
