    I decided to change the "sub-stage" in my truck from that single 15" in that ported enclosure that just never seemed to sound right to two Fi Q 12" in a dual chambered sealed enclosure. The enclosure has about 1.5ft^3 per chamber. The two subwoofers are without the BP option and are being powered by an AQ2200d amplifier.(2200watts@1-Ohms). Hopefully sending each Q with around 1100watts. The subwoofers are DVC 1-Ohm, wired in series to 2-Ohms per subwoofer and bringing a 1-Ohm load on the amplifier. The first Fi Q 12" has been bought and so has the AQ2200d. I plan to order the second Fi Q in a week. What influenced my decision for this subwoofer stage: 1. The Q's performa…

    I am waiting on a reply from Nick. I don't see to many people reconing an ssd. How much is a recone kit for an ssd. I need to change to D2's instead of my D1's. I picked up another Zapco Studio 500 and need 4ohm a woofer. Can it have the copper coils and or the flatwound coil on this go around with a stock motor? Is it a kit or just a cone? you know, does it come with glue and shims to locate the coil in the gap, thats sort of stuff. thanks

    My first sealed box for my 2 Q15's was 4.4ft^3. It sounded perfect. Now I have 4 Q15's sealed in 8.6ft^3 (after displacement). It is a little less then half the doulbed volume of the dual sub box. I assumed that my roll off would be nearly identical to my first box, or my tuning would be slightly higher, but it is actually opposite. It peaks at 35hz +/- but rolls off quickly above 40hz, as if the box is too big. Could it be possibe that the specs need to be adjusted do to box size or the amount of subs used? Maybe because it is all a single chamber? Because if this, I am considering doing a box that is about 10ft^3 with 4-5 4" round ports tuned to 34hz. That woul…

    So i built a box and everything was lookign good. I ordered two 3" port tubes. I tried to put the box in my car without the face board on and it fit. However with the front board on it did not. I had to therefore inset the board changing the demensions of the box a bit. The box demensions are now 25.5 X 17 X 16.75. How long do my 3 inch port tubes need to be to achieve a tuning of 33hz. The woofer i have is the 15Q so displacement is .19 cubic feet. Thanks for the help.

    I just ordered the 15" Q along with the Sundown 1000 amp. I have had the Ascendant Audio Atlas 15 for the longest time. I thought to myself, maybe it's time to move on, so I did. Saw the awesome deal on this site for the amp, jumped on that. I did have one question, I was looking at getting some 0 gauge wire. Looking at KnuKoncepts wire. I just need to figure out the fuse size. What size should I get? I was leaning towards like 150~200A Thanks Sunny

Im sure your just super busy but wanted to see if you happen to get a chance to build it or ship it out. Paypal address was [email protected] .

    Sup guys this is just another thread on my box problem that has been solved finally. Most of you guys probably saw it before since there isn't a crazy amount of new threads everyday. Anyways I thought i'd post some pictures of the new one since everybody lovvvvves pictures haha. Should be in the show off section I'm guessing, but a BTL is going into so oh well. So tell me what you guys think..I hope this isn't a pointless thread but it probably will be lol. Lata This is my former thread where I discussed the messed up box that I paid $300 for. http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...showtopic=28637 Check out the major difference.
