    I have two 18" BL's with all the upgrades and the daily option. I proposed to put them in a wall (around 8cuft per sub) and power them off a Trutech Hammer each (1.5kw per sub) Now I've managed to get my hands on a 5kw amp and was wondering how much power can the BL's realistically take without dying on a daily basis ?

    Hey everyone, I'm pretty new to this car audio thing, but I've been doing alot of research on what subwoofer I should get. I have a Alpine MRP-650 amp, and I was concidering buying the SSD12 sub. I have a ported box already built, to what I believe is the right size. I was just wondering if the sub will be under-powered. I would be buying the Dual 2-Ohm sub I believe. Thanks for any help

    I just sold my 15" Q and am looking at going back to a dual 12" setup. I liked the sound of the 15" Q but truthfully wanted some of my trunk back and it seemed to lack a bit on the higher frequencies. I'm looking at running a dual 12" setup with 1.1 ft^3 per sub running off a SAZ-1500D @ 1ohm. I'm looking at the SSDs now but want to get your opinions on them in this setup and any options I should possibly get. The 15" Q had the BP power option and was in a 2.6ft^3 sealed enclosure. I'm looking for most SQ since with the 1500D it'll get plenty loud for my daily driving needs. No competition or anything like that. Thanks.

So now i have to look into these two amps. since i got a universal fi bl 12, i can go one ohm or 2 ohm right? so here are my 2 amps to decide between Run a jbl 1400.1 at 2 ohms or Run a hifonics bxi1608 at 1 ohm please give me some feedback on what would be better THank you

    Ok so I only had enough money to buy 1 FI BTL 15" so my plans are to buy a cheap 30 dollar prefab box until i can order the other 15 and then make a custom dual 15 sub enclosure. Besides reinforcing the prefab box so my BTL doesn't blow it apart will i get better bass response from a bigger box? Thanks-Blake

    hey, i have a question, i have one mtx 15 inch 9500 in my truck now and my lease is up and im getting a suv. i want to have a set up that is spl and as loud as possible. so my question is- will it be better to get one more 15 9500 and get a dual ported box and toss it in the back or go with 2 18inch fi btl? I am new to car audio, this system i have now is my first. so alot of things im new to. put the cost aside, im willing to pay a good buck to get a LOUD system i've noticed theres alot of companies out that make subs just as good if not better then the few ive heard of, mtx,jl,kicker. and i figured if meade uses the 18 fi btl there has to be something special about…

    I sold my Q to a buddy of mine about a month ago, and he just blew the leads on it. How much is a D2 recone going to cost shipped to 16365? I've never reconed before, is it that hard? (I've already sent Nick an email with no reply, I do understand that you probably get 100 a day )

    Maybe someone could give me some useful advice. I have two 12w6v2s in a sealed box powered by Planet Audio class D 1250 wtt amp dropped in a dodge stratus sedan. I want to upgrade to Fi 12" Q. My question is, does the FI Q pound harder than the w6v2? I know the w6v2 has a slighter higher spl db than the Q, but the Q can handle up to 1000 RMS as oppose to the 12w6v2, which can take up to 400 RMS. I am planning on keeping th same sealed enclosure I have right now. But I just want to make sure the Q will hit a lot harder than the w6v2 before I take this step. The w6 gets loud, but I'm just looking for something LOUDER. Anyone who has heard both subs, I would appreciate you…

    I just got my new fi 12 inch btl intalled. All I can say is wow. I heard that the it gets super low, but I can't believe how hard the bass drops on a single 12. I have a 2.5 cubit foot port box tuned to 32 hertz, Hifonics brutus 2608 amp, and Kinetic Hc 2400&1400. This is all in a 2007 FJ Cruiser. This woofer takes a beating like a champ.

    I'm a really big fan of low bass tones (e.g. "Bass I Love You" or "Late Night Tip"). Would I be able to notice a big difference in the deep bass production between the SSD 10 and SSD 12? The only reason the 10" is even an option is because I already own a 10" sealed enclosure and I would like to avoid making/buying a 12" enclosure.

    Im sure these are pretty much a toss up but to my calculations the AA Havoc has a higher VD rating and therefore would yield more output.. So Im wanting others peoples opnions as well. Im not quite sure what the specs are of a BL with Flatwind and cooling option so I used the specs from the homepage to compare. Also the system is going to consist of 4 12's on 2kwatts if not a little more to each driver.
