    Sold my Current system this pas week, along with a old fender amp, and cashed in some savings bonds, brought me out to 1124$ I have spent about an hour to 2 hours picking out what I'm gonna get and I've pretty much narrowed it down after looking over multiple options and I've finally got it down pat! Subwoofer: Fi BTL 18" fully loaded Amp: Massive Audio P1500.1 3000W Class D Pro Series Amplifier Capacitor: SPL CP5.0 5 Farad Capacitor In all left me with 179$ which, I honestly didn't think I would come out with that speaking shipping etc. So, I'm hoping to use that to buy a box or have one made, so tell me what you think!

    im looking to change my setup. if i go the bl route, my box cuft will be 5-5.4cuft total including port area. if i go btl route, the box will be about the same total. they will be powered by a zx2500 which in the birth certificate says 2700 (if that matters) now i want to know which will be louder. this will be for daily use in my dodge charger. i currently have 2-15" L7's sealed in a 4.2cuft box and it pounds, but i just want to change it up. plus, i have a feeling that i can get louder than it if i go the FI route. thanx im also open to other suggestions.

    Ok i was building fiberglass console for my 12" BL to be run off saz-1500d. Now I havent even taken anything out of box or used any of it yet, and probably trading vehicles this weekend. Now I will be putting stuff in 97 expedtion. My sub is BL 12" with most options except spl and flatwind. I have plenty of room for whatever in this vehicle, so i will probably sale the 12" BL. If i wanted to run some 18" Q's, how would 1 saz1500d run both of them, or should I just get 2 BL 18s with 2 saz1500ds? If i didnt already have my amp, i would just buy 3000d. I have kinetik 1400 to go up front and 1 2000 kinetik now for the back. Let me know any other suggestions also. thanks

    Good evening all! What frequencies does the SSD12 with copper coils play the best? I have it in a 1.5^3 ft sealed box and I'm not sure what to set the subsonic filter and the low pass crossover at? I'm powering it with a soundstream rubicon 702 which also has another kind of feature, hawkins bass control. I think it's a combination subsonic filter with booster. Any advice would be great.

    okay guys, i am fairly new to the whole subwoofer thing and i need a bit of help getting myself started. First off, i need to know the differences between duals (1) (2) (4). My friend is helping me with most of this, and he tells me that i need subwoofers that come in a dual 4 ohm coil so he can wire them up to 1 ohm. I am planning on getting 2 12" Subwoofers, either Soundsplinters rl-p in a dual 4 ohm (if i knew what that meant) or the Fi Q's, but i'm having a hard time figuring out if they can be wired up to 1 ohm. Whether i get the rl-p's or q's they will be both placed in the same exact sealed enclosure, and will be wired to an elemental designs amp that is running 12…

    Hey, I am new to the forums and car audio and general and have a couple of questions. Firstly I have a budget of about $1000.00 for a sub/amp/amp kit/box. I am planing to pick up either a Fi Audio BL12 or the Q12. I am planning to on matching either sub with the US Amps XT-2000D http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseac...Product_ID=5309 Anywho, I listen to rap and house, and I just want an upgrade for my daily driving. I understand the Q has superior SQ, and the BL has superior SPL. Which sub would be ideal for my listening needs?? Also theres alot of mods you can have with the Q and BL that I don't understand that I would greatly appreciate some clarity on... For the…

    Hey guys, my BL came in today and i hooked everything up. Im using a 4.97ft^3 box tuned at 29 hz, and also an orion xtr 1000. Everything sounds fine, i just want to make sure how to play it in order to break it in properly. I did crank it up for a few seconds to see how insane it is and my ears are still hurting, which led to a blown fuse in my distribution block, which was a 60A(please comment on that) The dust cap also gets pretty warm but not hot, im not sure if thats normal. I will also admit that i am a complete idiot and should be shot becasue i drilled a hole through the rubber surrounding, i found out later that the holes were not lined up on the rubber surroun…
