Subwoofers / Speakers

Simple question here how much can a vvx 8" handle? I know it says 400rms but for those who own them would I be able to put lets say 600rms for daily use? And how good are they?

I am thinking about finishing up my system with a new sub setup. I have moved from the overpowering bass to appreciating all the ranges of music. Right now i have a 12" SSD copper coil sealed. It sounds great but am wondering what other choices I could get for greater SQ and that could get lower. Would stepping up to a 15" sealed Q or Icon dig lower and sound better? Playing with a 1000rms. I want the sub to compliment and add that lower depth. Mids are Sea Excel's with Sea tweeters.

I've got a 2000 Dodge Dakota Club Cab. I was wondering if anyone has any idea how much air space I can get under the rear seats? I don't have a problem ripping out the jack holder, storage tray, etc, but I really don't want to do any kind of modifications such as lifting the seats and such. I did find a Q-Logic enclosure for a single 8" sub that is .35 cubic feet. I know that MTX makes Thunderforms (or whatever they are called now) that hold 2 10's, but I'm having trouble finding what kind of airspace they run. These were just for references. If I can make it work I will build my own enclosure. The thing that worries me is finding a GOOD sub that will fit. I'm loo…

i was searching ebay looking at what was out there and came across these link lanzar is not a company i would normally even look at but these look like a solid daily pounder for cheap anyone have any exsperience with them

Can you guys give me some recomendations for good component sets(2 way)/amp combination? I am looking to spend around $600.

Hi all.Im wanting to replace my 2 type r 15's with 1 18 or maybe 2 different 15's.I would like to just have 1 18 so I was wondering what would be a good 18 to replace my 2 15's?Right now I have a clarion CZ 200 head unit, and a Autotek 1500 Street Machine amp.My car is a 1977 oldsmobile Delta 88 and my subs are in the trunk and thats where the 18 would go also.I was thinking about the FI BL 18" sub.Im not real familar with any other brands so any suggestions would be appreciated.Thanks. EDIT: Forgot to mention I would like the single 18 to be louder than the 2 15's

If I put a 6.5 rms 100 watts and a 3.5 at 45 watts on the same channel would the wattage add together or would I over power the the 3.5 trying to power the 6.5. The 3.5 are for location. And they are both 4 ohm loads.

So I run 2 Pioneer TS-W3002SPL's and now one sub has a horrible mechanical noise at low Hz Cycles and overall chopped and screwed music. I know i fucked it up but is there any specific reason why my sub is broken. They are 1000 RMS subs and I was running them at 300 RMS off a Sundown SAE-1200d at 2 Ohms so the only reason could be massive clipping. One of the subs is still fine though and I don't want to ruin that one as well. What happened and is there any way to fix what I did?

now i've heard that tweeters are very tempermental. i've heard stories of them conestantly blowing due to WAY to much power.... now upon thinking you could just hook up a crossover and restrict the power? right? also with the current engineering of the 6.5's and 6x9's is it even worth it to put in 2 or even 4 tweeters? (two in the front pillars, two by backseat passangers head). also the V-MAX cerwin vega seem like a good deal for about 50$ you get the 2 tweets and a crossover or in that case is it better to go with a higher end tweet system (if one is needed at all) and spend the extra 40$ per pair? my current system (after getting some things) 2 alpine type S 6x9's in t…

What do you guys think about jbl component speakers? I been reading up on different brands and all the reviews that I read, I have yet to read a negative review

so im thinkin about getting a single btl 18 or bl or even a q. i heard of people having to run seperate batteries and new alternators and running more wires. will this really be neccasary? my truck is just wired for a amp and all that right now

I'm looking for one 18 i can give 2500w. I wanted one of the new BTL's but I messaged Fi and they told me they were in the process of moving and so production is a little slow right now. Any suggestions on something comparable? I currently have DC Lv.4 12's (love them) running off 2 Kicker SX1250.1's. And my price limit is about 600. Thanks.

would anyone know of what my options would be for soft parts for a power acoustic mofo 124x

Currently own 1 Fi BL 15 and I have been looking into competing. I have been doing some reading and a common limitation for the lowest power class in USACI, (1-600watts at 4 ohms? best I could find: stock 1, street beat 1, etc.) is one 12", two 10" or 3 8". Feel free to correct me and my stupidity any time! If I was looking to compete in said class(es), one 12 seems to be the cheapest route, so here are the options I have found for my budget, (whatever I can get for my BL + less than $100) 1: Used DC level 4 XL, (dual one) for ~ $290 (should I turn into dual 2? is that possible?) 2: Just the motor of the level 4 XL (send it into PSI or something and get it rebuilt?) …

ive been lookin into buyin sum subs, and ive been lookin at a 15" Fi BL with a kicker zx1500.1 amp (maybe an 18") or i was also lookin at getting 2 12" kicker cvx with the kicker zx1500.1 im lookin to get loud with decent sound quallity which set up is better overall, and which will most likly get louder when put in the correct enclosure thanks

I built a sub box as big as i could to hold two 18's in my acura cl.i run a 1200w hifonics brutus and it slams.But the speakers supostu have 6cft of air .the box only has 6.4 total inside air space. Is there any way to make the subs work easyer.By adding polyfill ,porting,or any other methed.i dont want to build a real intriqet box considering my trunk only holds about 13cft and my box should have 12cft.Any help would be appreciated.

Not a big box (a single 12 sealed Subzone wedge). How much to ask for shipping???

Hey everybody i have a quick noob question how would you wire a dual one ohm sub to 2 ohms?

Im thinking of purchasing the SA 8 v2 D2. But I dont want to lose my whole trunk I have a Forte Koup and only want 1 8'sub. would this work and be satisfied with its performance?

Someone local to me has an enclosure for sale with 2 ten inch oz audio subwoofers in it. They are a red cone with yellow writing in them. Does anyone know anything about them? I can't seem to find anything. All I can get is info on the matrix elite, power, vector(purple), and old superman logo sub's. Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm looking for something that sounds good but doesn't break the bank. They will be getting 50-60 watts per side. Zapco i-6.2 http://www.woofersetc.com/p4965/i62--Zapco-65"-IForce-Component-Speakers.htm Image Dynamics CTX65CS http://www.woofersetc.com/p6201/CTX65CS--Image-Dynamics-65"-Component-Speaker-System.htm Or if you can recommend something else better in that price range. Thanks

ok so i've currently got a single RF power HX2 15 on a saz1500. problem #1 its got a blown coil, problem #2 its currently in a sealed box im pretty sure is to damn small. the reason for the small sealed is i had to work with the wood i had layin around to make it fit so i could use my back seat. previous box was 4ft^3 ported tuned at 33hz. now im almost certain i dont have room back there for 4 cubes ported if i reconed the sub with upgraded coil and suspension. so im asking you guys for suggestions on a setup that will get loud, low, and move some air while sounding good in the cargo area of the 93 mustang. still plan on using the saz1500. been looking at and liking the …

I purchased a pair back in '08 and used them for about 6 months or so and then took the box out of under my seat to make room for a hunting trip and never put it back. Going to sell them but can not remember nor find the specs on them. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks.

Been out of car audio for some time... and now, with my new car... I am addicted again I was able to pick up a set of Boston Z6 comps for dirt cheap (yea Craigslist!). And have them hooked up to an old MTX amp, don't even remember the model, that I had laying around. Since these are 3ohm and I have them bridged to the MTX 4chan... the MTX doesn't like it. I don't think I ever had an amp get that hot. So I am looking for amp recommendation to power these hungry things. Any ideas? Thanks!
