    Ok I have been very curious about PPI since DEI came around, I know very little about the amplifers, and even less about their new subs, so to start with I was wondering about the DCX subs, I talked to Shane a little and he suspected that these are very similar to the Orion H2, just some different internals and soft parts, possibily some motor (DGM), the thing is that the rattings for power specs are lower than the H2, so that could justify the different parts, anyone know anything about this sub?

    this just in, just found out today when i got some new h2's in, they changed the surround to a foam style surround that is taller. I was like wtf, whats this all about, and emailed my buddies at tech support to find out. my questions: whats the deal with the new surround on the h2's? any advantages? Reason for design change? They seem to look like they will allow more excursion, but thats all from looks. shane his reply: More power handling, and greater excursion, 32mm now ohhhh, cant wait to test!!! got someone testing at sbn, hehehe. will have pics soon.

    I had planned on getting the edi 6500 comps and a nine.2, but I decided at this point I should save up some money for my next car then get whatever I want. In the meantime though my stock speakers are NOT cutting it. They are the cheap stock ones that come with a 98 jeep grand cherokee. Are there any cheap coaxials that I can just run off my h/u but will still sound half decent? I just saw these powerbass ones on ebay and I'm thinking might be alright. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...5762139690&rd=1 My friend has the comp version of these which he paid 160 for (dumb*ss lol) and they are decent for the price. Any other sub $50 coaxials you can think of that will …

    Right now i am rocking out the mid-sized sealed. But, i was looking to upgrade to a ported. can someone give me some help with a design, max dementions: W-35" x H-19" x D-25" it would be mdf. i built my last one and it came out great. I can do most stuff with the material (perfer it to be simple, so i don't have to spend weeks after school on it) I want to keep a lot of sq, but bump up the spl, i know that i will loose some of the tightness, but this would just be a second box anyway, you know, just to have, and for a project. if you needed to know, i have a Viper 1200d. -Travis Anyone know where to get some good black box capetting?

  8. I just saw the Scion XB commercial that shows what looks like lower end Lightning Audio subs attempting to "throw down." What's the deal with commercials and TV shows trying to demonstrate subs "tumping" ... and it's always less-than impressive? If they had a new or old Mag in place they'd have themselves a much better commercial IMO.

    im running two idq12"s svc 2ohm sealed(1.8 cubic) powered by one xtant 1000/1. the subs are very responsive but tend to lack low end. i listen to mainly metal-tool,korn,slayer. some of their stuff has low thump that my subs are not picking up. these subs are in the back of S-10 ext. cab-the box sealed has the subs facing up toward the roof. i dont have room to run booth subs ported-any other types of box designs or eq settings i should consider? polyfill? i used to run 2 10" mtx 8000 in a downfire box for that truck and i got more lowend and louder bass from that set-up than my current system

    that I am already wanting to try out either a new Mag, or a Rl-p, or w6. I have only had my mag for, well actually almost a year now, damn that went by fast. but I think its just from reading all the damn forums of people getting new subs it makes me want a new sub or two. well, I am definatly waiting to see the new SI sub. I love my Mag so much I am sure it will not dissapoint. I also think I am going to go back to the 3 12s configuration. I like the 15 but something about the 3 12s I miss.

    So, I'm been itching to build. But I still cant come up with a good design for the Uberwoofer for HT use. By HT use, I mean an F3 <25 and a lowpass ~40. Action movies. heh. Any way you slice it, no more then 600rms to throw at her. Thinking BIG Ported (although it's not easy to hide in a liviing room). 6.0ft^3 net, (3) 4" aeroports, tuned to 20hz. Gives me a nice knoll around 30-50hz, flat ~25 - 30, and an F3 around 18. -or- Maybe a dub tuned BP? 6ft one side, 2ft the other... small peak from 22-30 then steep roll off till 42ish on the high side and a low end f3 of 19ish. -or- A... nah, I dont have room to make a proper horn. I don't like TL's much. At least, I didnt …

    Hey guys! Like the title says, I'm getting a brand new setup on a new car, but i'm not too familiar with subs and amps. I stumbled upon this site (an awesome site by the way ) and learned so much already! So now I turn it over to your thoughts and opinions! Here's what I'm looking for. I want a 12" sub in a sealed box. I want a good amp that works very well with the sub. I don't want to loose too much trunk space (need to fit my mountain bike in there.) I've been leaning toward the rl-p after everything i've read, but I'm not sure if I should wait for that new D2. I would like to get the sub in a week or two. I want something that sounds good and hits hard and low, b…
