    Quick question

    When I purchases the subs, what will it show up as on my bill? Like will it say "FI car subwoofers" or something else?

    Quick question

    Lol, I'm going to buy for my fiance and we both use the same credit card and I wanted to give i to her for our anniverisy and I'll probaly be at work when the biill comes and I just wanted to surprise her, she has been bugging me for this for awhile so hopefully it wont say "You're finace has been waching internet porn" or something like that on the bill. So really, will it actullay say like "fi car audio subs"?

    Kinda lost with something

    I added 2 optima yellow tops to feed my SA3000D. I still have not completed big 3 as I will do this when I get my HO alt. To answer your question, without the batteries voltage drops were dangerously low. After adding them I get fluctuations of .5 volts at full tilt. I would at least add 1 battery with at least 50 AH. But I would add as many as I could as long as I had the space and funds to do so. I don't know what kind of vehicle you have, but as long as you give the alt time to catch back up you should be fine until you do upgrade to a HO alt. Well i have a vw jetta so im sure your SUV has a higher alt. so i would have to buy the batteries? do i connect them directly to like the subs or amp? maybe i should just have the local dealer install everything for me =]
  4. Im getting 2 12 BL subs and the saz 1500d sundown. Now i may just be getting just one sub for now cause of some money issues but wil end up getting another 12, can i hook up just one sub for now to the saz 1500d amp or no? I do not know shit about this stuff. thanks

    Kinda lost with something

    Sure you can, but you missed the main piece of information we need. What voice coil configurations did you order? D1/D2? The result that would best fit you is to have 2 subs with 1 ohm coils. When wired correctly you will end up with a 1 ohm load. But you would have to run at 2 ohms or at .5 ohms if you only had one hooked up. I did not order yet, and im glad you told me that. and to the other poster, Im sure i will be getting the other sub. Just another question, when i have both subs set up and everything, am i going to need to do any upgrades to the car, i know the big 3 is a "must" but what about the alternator? or the battery? I want to be able to push them to their max potential. If i need to upgrade the alternator, do i need to upgrade the battery? or can i just get a yello top optima battery just for the amp/subs? thanks a bunch
  6. Well for some reason my power winodws and my interior lights are not working any more so im guessing its my battery because i was away for 4 weeks and i came back and it was dead but wahtever, so im assuming my battery is like shitty but i wanted to get a new battery anyways so if i get a new battery would this help me out in the future for my 2 bl 12's and sax 1500d amp? i plan on getting a optima red top oir should i get a yellow top? i just need a new battery in general not just one battery to power my amp im going to get this done within the next hour and hopefully they change the battery for me thanks also could i just use my old battery to power the amp ? or do i not need any other batterys if i get an optima

    Will this be a good set up?

    Just two BL 12's and saz 1500d and thats about it oh and my highs amp idk how many watts it is honestly i forgot. but when i get the extra battery do i replace the extra battery with my stock battery so all my electrical is hooked up to the new battery then use the stock battery for the amp? i originally wanted a new battery in replacement for the stock. ?

    Will this be a good set up?

    So idk but i guess this is what im going to buy. two BL 12's along with a saz1500d amp Now for the features Ohm:2 P Chamfer:? Cooling: Yes Daily: Daily I Heat ring:? Universal? So the ones with "?" what should i do? and everything else seems good? Other then that i would need a box and some wiring... and i guess the big 3 upgrade?

    Will this be a good set up?

    x2, get the dual 1 ohm subs and wire them in series up to 2 ohms each and they will see a final load of 1 ohm(the saz1500d is one ohm stable so you will be set). Okay thanks, Seeming how i may need to upgrade some electrical, i plan on buying a new battery for my car, what kind of abattery should i go with? i heard optima red tops are good, would this be good enough to power the amp and what not? or would i have to get a HO alternator also? Thanks

  13. Okay, So i have a 2001 jetta, i dont know how big my trunk is and i suck at math. I was orignally going to get 2 12's btl but everyone told me that i would neeed to upgrade my alternator and the big 3. is this true? so my other option was to go with the 2 12's BL, but i dont know if i would still need to upgrade anything electrical. but either way, i would perfer to get the btl but dont have enough money to get a new alternator and the big 3 okay, now either way if i were to go with the btl or bl, what would i want to configure the woofers too? like this list thing Ohm: P Chamfer: Cooling: Flatwind: Daily or SPL: Extreme Lead: Universal: Dustcap: i would be using this daily, so i asuume i would do daily, but everything else.... wtf does it mean? and waht kind of amp would i need to power this and where would i get all the wiring? Thank You P.S How do 2 12" BL sound? do they get loud and hit low?

    Please. Please help me out

    Just be careful with this, most of the time the problem isn't space available in the trunk, it's the size of the opening into the trunk and if the box will fit through the opening. If it won't, your only option is to build it in-trunk, but that's more effort. So how... extactly do i find this out...? lemme guess... theirs some sort of math involved huh?

    Should i go with this?

    Well the user Jacob helped me out A LOT and i wanna thank him. but i like to know other peoples opinions too Alreaday have AF HU and AF Speakers Going to get 1) 1 15" bl 2) saz1500d 3) big 3 upgrade 4) amp kit 5) RCA wires **What kind of fuse would i want to get along with the amp kit?** Thank You
  16. tripphxc

    Should i go with this?

    Thats weirdd. What are you saying you have a 300 amp fuse right by the battery with 1/0 gauge wire...? are you insisting of giving it to me? =] what upgrades did you have to do? like the big 3, alternator? another battery?

    Please. Please help me out

    Well right now my budget is $900. i do get a pay check every week so ya it will be adding up. but i think this is what im doing so far 1) One 15" bl 2) saz-15000d 3) The big 3 upgrade 4) This amp kit http://www.knukonceptz.com/productDetail.cfm?prodID=KFX-PK0 5) RCA Cables http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.c...tnumber=181-656 Jacob helped me out a lot And once i have all that, i may or may not need to upgrade to a new alternator I mean im not in a rush to put everything in like immediately. I just want to get a decent system

    Please. Please help me out

    Well heres the thing.... I was thinking about going with 1 15 but either way... i would have to upgrade the big 3 and my alternator right? cause if i go for the 1 15... i might as well just get a btl...? and would 1 15 be able to fit in my trunk with a ported box i assume? i think its 13 cubic feet so here are my options i guess A) 1 15 either bl or btl B)2 12 bl Now with which ever set up i go with... i HAVE to do the big 3 upgrade AND a HO alternator.... correct? thank you
  19. tripphxc

    Please. Please help me out

    Exactly, that's why im here asking questions. Okay, well i decided i will just go with 2 fi bl 12"'s So in order to power them i would 1) need to get an amp (could someone suggest an amp for me) please 2)the big 3 upgrade (someone told me they could do it for $120) is that too much or does that sound right? 3) get a separate battery for the subs/amp or what ever AND get a new alternator? or could i just do either one? thank you
