    My final decision

    My APX 12 plays music just fine. Just turn your subwoofer down and you wont have a problem.

    1998 Chevy Lumina low-end build

    Funny story I have the exact same car lol. It's a pain in the ass not being able to fit a box bigger than 32"W x 16"H isn't it. Stupid trunk lid hinges

    2 15" Q's or BL's

    4 loaded BL's could take 6kw all day long. Mine takes 1500 and is begging for more
  9. Put more power @ those 3000's. Those crunch amps are garbage, they are extremely power hungry and will not do rated power. I had the same amp on a single 3002SPL in a 2 @ 40hz box and did a 138.1. You were probably giving each of those pioneers 300-400wrms which is not near enough for those woofers. I switched out my amp with an Audiopipe 1500.1 (giving my pioneer 3002 ~1500wrms) and did a 140.1. Those things will take every bit of 1kw each with no problems. The Mag 12 may be louder with that amp, but if you gave the recommended power to those 3000's I'm almost positive they would be louder than the single mag. The mag's do get quite loud though. With (2) 12" Mag's though i'd say you'd murder those 3000's in output and SQ.

    Just ordered the BL 15's

    I love mine in 3 @ 35. Going to do a little more tuning today and probably get a couple vids.

    BL 15 build

    Got around to building the box today for my BL15. Anywho on with the good stuff... Overall I'm really impressed with this thing. I like it alot. I will carpet it later I just wanted to get it in and start breaking it in. It wangs . --edit-- The 6" Aero is in the box as well. It's not sealed

    woot! finally broke down

    well i been lookin at the BL 15 for a while now and I decided to grow a pair and buy one! Placed my order, hurt to look at the receipt a bit but it'll be worth it! my 6" PSP port should be here shortly too ;P
  15. Well after just about worrying myself to death, this bitch came. Initial impressions, the packaging could be a little more sturdy as my sub shifted a bit but besides that, i am definitely impressed by this thing. Build quality is excellent, nice & stiff ready to be broken in. I can't wait to give this thing the business with 1500w. Absolutely beautiful specimen if I do say so myself. The pictures just don't do it justice... anyways on with the good stuff! Whats this? sexy? oh yeh so sexyyyy Will it be loud? Oh yes, it will be loud

    Scott (and the rest of FI), you're the man!

    Yessir, I can't wait to get a box together for this thing. I'm hoping it will be a nice little daily driver

    Scott (and the rest of FI), you're the man!

    I will definitely get build pics up when i build. I lost my digital camera so I'll have to borrow my brothers when I get around to doing it. I want to get it done this weekend but it might be a lake weekend. I can fit 3 cubes the way I want the woofer to sit. Will 3 @ 35hz be good for this thing?

    woot! finally broke down

    oh pics will definitely be provided as well as vids / reviews when its all said and done. I'm not worried about it being late so much as it not coming at all. I just hope one of the little UPS f*cks didn't decide to take my sub home with them .

    aero ports

    I know for a fact that it saves space in the box. IF you want a 3 cube box, instead of building it 3.5 ft^3 box (for port displacement) you can build a 3 cube sealed and attach to the box. I have a 4" Aero on my Pioneer 3002 and I like it alot. I'm excited to try out my 6" Aero that I ordered today

    Magnum vs SX

    The SX's get pretty loud but so do the magnums... I had both woofers (altho the magnum was a 12") I also had a 12 SX, I'd say the SX maybe had the magnum by a hair in SPL but i'm sure with testing and whatnot either of them would be a winner. 1kw rms to either of them is going to make them wang!

    REALLY loud daily?

    A pair of Alpine Type R 12's and a TCAB box with 2500w rms would give you 150 daily....or really really close to 150.
