    Tahoe Round 2

    I don't know the model numbers off the top of my head. The two I blew were the rectangular horn. The other two are the 90* conical ones. They all use the same motor.... Eminence Horns. I had them crossed over very low.... I believe in the thousand-ish range. I'm still not sure what I was thinking, but they popped pretty quick. I have them crossed over at 5,000 now and they have the ability to hurt and make you cringe without going pop.

    I seriously envy you. You could sell those BNIB and make a profit if someone wanted these in a hurry

    Sundown vs. Fi

    Gotta love beefy 10's. I miss my hdc310's

    How did you guys find SSA???

    I know it's expensive... but if your the type that likes extremely intense, absolutely insane bass, a BTL will be a great introduction to Fi for you.

    New Setup, Need Help!

    LOL it really isn't about what I want. Although if you get the X it will save you alot of money and keep you on budget. 15" X and that US Amps Xterminator I link'd. Bam. those 2 together will give me a good system? Yes. Put the X in a box around 4 cubes tuned @ 32hz. Get a KnuKonceptz wiring kit here. Headunit is your preference. I prefer Kenwood. alright man, im trusting you. ha shit better be going hammer. lol You will be reasonably happy with the x15. I have 2 of the x12's and they do great for what they are.

    High Output Alternator Question

    I vouch 110% for DC power. I have only seen 1 person have a problem with their service/products in the three years I have been on this and other forums. (I have a dual alt kit from them and love it)

    Tahoe Round 2

    Forgot to post the box for the seleniums. I mounted some horn loaded tweeters in the sides and front. Had to put new diaphrams in 2 of the horns... they told me they didn't like having a low xover (they blew in about an hour). And the box; Also a better view of the way I am mounting my amps.... if I just had 1 extra inch I'd be in much better shape. Everything is such a tight fit! The wires have been organized, I just ran out of time on the first day.

    Can someone from DC Power Contact ME!!!!

    I'm glad to have had a good experience with DC..... besides receiving my dual alt kit without any instructions, I got my order in a VERY timely fashion. They even sent me a larger alternator than I ordered for no cost. I called DC about 6 times while I was installing and someone answered the phone EVERY TIME. I would recommend DC to anyone before I saw this thread..... even though the parts are completely custom, 2 years is too long to wait and if I was DC I'd just provide a refund and throw in some free product. Sometimes companies go through issues that will eventually be resolved. Don't worry, in the end you will either have your money or have some alternators. Are you calling them? If so, what are they saying? If you really are getting serious about it... (I would be over that much money) send them a certified letter giving them a reasonable time frame to send the product, or if you don't receive the product by that date require a full refund.

    BTL N2 people

    I never once thought Fi forgot about me or was taking my money and not giving me a product.... I just hate waiting, so I'm one of those people that ask for an update every other day. Fi makes the best product on the market today, which is why I don't mind waiting for it.

    Btl update

    I hope to have these a few days before christmas.... it's looking less and less likely.

    Btl update

    Can we get another update... because FI is going to start giving me grey hairs pretty soon. Are we still on for shipment by tomorrow if I ordered like ~3 weeks ago?

    1500D V.2

    Get the largest wire that the amp will take.... I've never purchased an amp kit, but just make sure whatever you buy includes everything you need! (the proper lengths, fuses, etc.) (1) RCA's (2) Power Wire (3) Remote Wire (4) Proper Fuses (amount varies from setup to setup)... upon further thought the 1500 may have fuses in the amp, but you will still need one on the battery side (5) Speaker Wire... you can use the largest the subs will take I highly recommend the 100% copper wire from Knu.... good product, fast shipping, good support.
  15. I explained it to someone like this; It is by far more important to upgrade your alternator before getting higher capacity batteries. Batteries are only a temporary fix. Think of it this way... You have a container (batteries) that holds 1000 gallons of water. You have a pipe (alternator) filling the container at 250 gallons per hour. With the flood gates (amps) wide open you let go 1500 gallons per hour. Your going to run out of water quickly with the flood gates (amps) wide open, and in an electrical sense you will be getting unhealthy voltage drops before the resovior is empty. If you bump up the water source (alternators) you solve all problems.
  16. He could likely talk to someone like DC power and get a dual alt bracket.... just put a standard 4 prong oval gm alt as the second alt and separate it and a bat bank just for the system. One thing I've learned.... doing electrical properly is almost as expensive as the subs/amps its powering.

    how do u use the 2ohm x4 on amps???

    I'm not sure if you mentioned what amp your using.... but I'd likely ignore the rms on mids / highs. I'm using a Sundown Audio 50.4. It's running; 2 Polk Audio Component Sets 2 Polk Audio Coaxials 4 Selenium 6.5's And 3 Eminence horn loaded tweeters The amp pushes the speakers to their max.... to the point where you wouldn't want to turn it up anymore.
  18. holley2346

    Time for new speakers, help!

    I love my polk audio component sets.... I have them in the doors, and kicks. They were a perfect matchup for my BTL 18.

    Btl update

    I got confirmation from FI that these should all be shipped out by the coming up Tuesday. They had countless molding issues, and that was the cause of the delay. I've been riding around for the past few weeks with a empty 20 ft ^3 box in the back of my truck with only door speakers to listen to.

    IA Hairtrick Action

    I saw this in person... all I can say is BJ has some crazy highs on the outside too for sure
  22. holley2346

    Just making sure my amp will be okay without this

    It's been in its own amp rack separated from the sub enclosure.... maybe hitting a bump hard or something did it. Thanks
  23. I am undergoing a rebuild, and took everything out of my truck to check on everything. After opening my amp I found this zip tie broken, I don't foresee any problems forming from not having it... but it had to be there for some reason. Will my amp be alright? Thanks!
