    So i'm interested in purchasing one 12" BL subwoofer but don't know what to select for the options. It will be going into a 2008 Nissan Altima and being powered by a Clarion DPX1001.2 and the specs are: 250 watts RMS x 2 at 4 ohms 450 watts RMS x 2 at 2 ohms 500 watts RMS x 2 at 1 ohm 1,000 watts RMS at 2 ohms in bridged mode i am just wondering if someone could help me figure out what i would need to select for Hyper Pole, Cooling, Flatwind etc. This would be a daily driver and not spl, and pleas correct me if i'm wrong but would i need a dvc 2 ohm sub wired to 4 ohms and bridging it at the amp would bring it down to 2 ohms right? need anymore information, just let me kn…

I'm going for spl, i just want it to be loud. also i look at 2 ssd 15 is a slightly smaller box then recommended. what are you suggestions/recommendations ?

    I have been building boxes for sometime and I notice that a lot of boxes have the same concept but are built a little different. When I build a ported box for two subs I normally direct the air out of the front (depending on the application) of the enclosure with a divider between both chambers. I have seen some enclosures with no divider coming out of the front, just a big hole. Does adding or taking away a divider give off a different sound? I also add one in the middle just to make the box more rigid. I am building two ported boxes for a van. Would it be better to port it in the front like I have been doing or to go another way. I would think that by porting it …

    I was on a plane from Montana and landed in Vegas so I could drive home to California and thought I would drop by and see where Fi was so I stopped at barnes & noble to get a thomas guide so I could find the location of Fi. I found it, but being the monday of a holiday weekend, I didnt get to see much. I didnt think Fi would of been there for the holiday so, it wasnt any loss for me to try driving through Vegas anyway. At least I know where it is now if I happen to swing by in the future. I'm sorry if this was a teaser, but I thought some might enjoy reading about what I did.
