I have 2 TC-1000 8" subs. 1 working fine. the other not responsive to power input. When pushed by hand, the cone still moves up and down. So just wondering if theres a build house somewhere that might be able to check it out and if possible fix or recone the sucker. any suggestions?

Sweeeet!!! Can't wait to try out those PRs. right now the G5s are temporarily in a sealed prefab box with no PRs and they sound awesome. I hope they'll be even better in this box. I'll post pics as soon as the box and PRs arive.Where are you getting the PR's from? I want to see some videos of this.
The PRs are the Boston Acoustics GTR12s. Heres the only video i can find on youtube:
I've never seen a box where the PR is the same size diameter as the active driver. Normally the PR is larger, or there's more of them.
I don't have much experience with PRs. Just going by what Boston is reccommending in their manuals.

Ya man I see alot of cases where lets say the FI Q sub is 279 shipped. Someone will try to sell it for like 200 plus shipping which would be like 230 hell id rather just spend the extra 50 for newDo you think $200 shipped for Fi Q 12" 1ohmDVC is reasonable?
how long did you use them... who installed them and how hard hard did you play them.... and where is your gain at on that amp?
Used for a month... I installed it in a sealed 1 cu ft enclosure and then a 2.0 cu ft ported @ 32hz.... gain is 1/4 from lowest setting on a Diamond Audio D31000.1 amp
yeah thats worth it:D
I'm selling. Just wondering if thats an appropriate price to sell.

Could buy a new amp.it would be cheaper to buy a new Q since that amp is 1000w x1 @1ohm

Yes, the D1 coils will fit fine in the D2 gaps. The D2 gap is the "universal" gap that we machine to.Not a problem on getting a kit for that one to match another... get new leads with the kit to match the new sub as well.
Thanks,
Scott
Can this be done with a Dual 1 ohm Q? I need a dual 2 ohm now since I got a new amp.
Ummmm, Nope.
Guess I'll be underpowering it at 600w

So the requisites you need are:- 150w power handling
- 4 ohm load
- price/budget?
- sealed box or ported?
Yes> the RMS is 150watts
Yes> 4 ohm load
Price is open
Sealed enclosure
10" sub preferred
Subs I have been looking at are the 10" ID and 10" IDQ
Any others I should consider?
0 - 150w power handling

The EXL line from CV is solid. Outside of that I cannot comment due to no play time on them. Sundown has planned an SAE-50.4 I believe, but if you are in need of something now, I would gravitate towards the Kicker ZX 350.4. Top mount controls, good power.when will that sae-50.4 come out? i could wait

cool thanks for the replies so far. I found a cheap Cerwin Vega 4 channel on ebay (http://www.cerwinvegamobile.com/EXL400.php). does anybody have experience using their amps?

well first i had an ed nine.1 on it and it sounded like poo. Then I borrowed my friend's Diamond Audio D3600.1 and it sounded clean and it was only giving out 400w@2ohm. Thanks for the feedback. I'll be looking at something more around 1000w.

I'm going to buy my gf some components because the speakers in her car sound really crappy and bugs the hell out of me. I need some suggestions on some good sounding 4 channel amplifiers that can be purchased for less than 300. Can either be a authorized dealer or ebay. Any help would be appreciated.

I have a 4 channel ED amp that when bridged to run as a 2 channel amp only takes one RCA Cable as a signal with no ability to fade the signal from left to right. When I made a negative review on their website, they don't even post it. I've always wondered why every product they sell has an amazing list of good reviews (4 to 5 stars).Im gonna go out on a limb here and say its user or install error.
btw... i hooked up an old Eclipse 4 channel amp right after and it performed as expected so all wiring was correct.

picture this... a four channel amp... set to 2 channel... only one RCA cable connected, not a pair, JUST ONE... a signal is sent to both left and right speakers... How is that possible?

heres a review on diyma by mr. xhttp://www.diymobileaudio.com/forum/showth...ighlight=13av.2
Wow a positive review. Obviously he was paid off by Ben and the evil forces...
Even though Ben runs the company i dont support him personally because i dont even know him(although ive spoken with him a few times). I do, however, support the products they(there are other great people working at ED) make because they have all worked for me flawlessly in the past as have other products from Fi, DLS, Alpine etc which ill continue to support.
I just wonder how many people here have actually used their products...ie amps, drivers, and have legitimate issues with them? By "legitimate" i mean hands on, not oh i heard from so and so on the forums blah blah blah or from my buddy so and so. If you have had problems that were handled unjustly then i agree to avoid their product as would I with any manufacture, but i would not go around flaming a company online like a teenager.
This isnt aimed at everyone in this thread. Some of you seem rather professional, while others seem to follow the typical 12v mob mentality.

What is the lowest amount of watts to feed a 12" Fi Q and still get decent/good performance? I'm shopping for an amp and want to see what my options are.

Does any1 have a 12" Q in a sealed around 1 cubic feet? I want to know if the q will get loud in a sealed. Im thinking of replacing my 2 JL 10W7 with 1 12" Q or maybe I should just power 1 JL 10w7. The 2 w7s take up my whole trunk and i just want to get some of my trunk back. I have enough to put a Q in a sealed enclosure but have around 1.5-1.7 cubic feet for ported. My amp does around 800-900 watts at 4 ohms or 1600watts at 1 ohms so dual 2 ohms it is. Should I just keep 1 of my jl 10w7 and port it? Will that sound close to a 12 Q sealed?My 12" Q is in a sealed 1cuft enclosure. It gets plenty loud for me. All I had to test it was a cheap Radioshack sound meter which maxes out at 126db. The sub did max out the meter and now I'm wondering how loud it actually is.

at least play something that really shows off the excursion like a test tone CD around 35hz and below.
