Subwoofers / Speakers

whatsup, i got my new viper 1200d in and when i open the box my jaw dropped, its such a sweet amp. i went into the garage and made a simple amp rack out left over wood. turned out pretty good wutchu guys think? maybe ill get a spot on SI's website in the demo section!

hey whats up everyone. i finally got my money for my amp which is going to my mag d2 15. my question is should i get the bx1000d or the bx1500d. the sub is in a 3.3 ported box tuned to 32 and its in a daily driven car. if i go with the bx1500d am i gonna always have to worry about blowing the sub. ive noticed that alot of people are giving it 1500 watts but i saw that nick said that if these subs were rated like other subs it would be 1000wrms which is why im just making sure which amp to go with. thanks alot

my first post... i never heard of the magnum before and for only 350.00 why not try it out... and if i dont like it.. sell it... no problem there... i like to explore new things that many people dont anyways especially car audio.. when someone says "whats that" "how many subs you got in there" that right there is worth every buck i put into it... but to the question... i'm pretty set on the magnum 15 so whenever the next batch comes in... please let me know... 1. i really like the memphis amp because of electrical issues but i can't decide on which one?? the 16-mc1000d or the 16-st1000d??? anybody know if there's any difference??? 2. will 1000 watts be able to really g…

i want to run my amp at 4 ohm bridge (because that is all it is capable of)... so if i were to get two 12 d2s mags would i need to get a new amp or would it be ok for me to wire the sub at 8 ohm and run it like that?

we get to send in our old crappy subs and get a price break for buying thiers hehehe =) worth a shot heheh

This is my first post here so wassup. I'm tryin to upgrade from my Kicker CompVR to a MagnumD2 12" but i need to know whether or not they come in or can you order one in dual4 ohm. I have a Kicker 600.1 amp and i wanna use the whole 600w on the D2. If someone could help me out. Thanx.

im working on a stealth install. so hewres my situation, the way im doing my doors is im taking off the carpet, mounting the speaker and puting the capret back over. it was designed for midbass aplicatuions becuase carpet shouldnt harm like 80-300 herts to much but hows it going to effect the upper midrange of the 302's if i buy them>?

what would you get? I want something that can scare my friends, will be mounted in w holecab early ford bronco. I'm going for dual 12's just gotto find out which ones for amps I figured i would get dual hifonic brutus 1500, one for each so I can run 1 ohm I'm not going to compete, but I hate the damn sound of my single 12" lanzar (yeah ) hitting the max. I want it loud, but I like the bass to be tight. as much if both as possible I like what I read on the forums about the magnum, but I have a friend competeing here, which says W7 for live

i just wanted to know how long a 15" magnum can last at full excursion

okay i will be getting everything that's in my room installed either today or tomorrow depending on the shop's availiability. but i would really like to know how to stuff my box with polyfil. i went to wal-mart and found that they come in pillow shapes like 12 x 8 or somethin and they are different sizes. now am i supposed to just buy a couple of those and cut them open and dump what's inside into my box or what? i have a 2.3 cubes sealed box after displacement. how many of these things should i buy? now this question should probably be somewhere else but hey i'm using stereo integrity products so i thought i'd just get all the help i can at once. since i will be getting…

Showed off the 302s to a friend who is running an entirely Alpine Type-R setup. He was quite impressed... I believe his exact words were, "Wow, now that is clarity." His Type-R components sound pretty good, don't get me wrong, but they most definatly weren't equal to the 302s -- and he agreed with that no arguments. The Type-R tweeter sounded somewhat shrill in comparison and the midbass capability wasn't anywhere near the 302s. And, of course, since he had no EQ you could sense the mids rolling off in his car, where that wouldn't be happening with the 302 midrange. Steven, I need to track you down sometime you can take a listen -- you might end up wanting a set!

yeah..the box was made by fine custom works, and is 4 ft^3, tuned to 32 hz. i didn't take any excursion porn pictures...im still only running it with a crappy power acoustik 900 watt amp with the gains turned down low, but it still gets so loud and stays so clean. my old subs (don't laugh, audiobahns) sounded like crap compared to this. when i'd turn them loud, i'd hear popping and it sounded terrible. these sound so much better. im surprised at how good the sq is on this 15"...i always heard that 15"s were a little sloppier than 12"s, but they definately are not like that at all.

Alright ... dual Shiva's ... amp = Arc 1500D-R. Right now they're firing upwards in 1.25 cubes per driver. I'm pleased with their performance, but I personally think they can do a bit more. I've tried 1 cube per driver, 1.25/driver, and 1.5/driver all sealed, with and without polyfill. I stuck with the 1.25/driver with polyfill just because that's what sounded the best to me. I've also tried 1.75/driver ported to 24hz. Wasn't too bad. Keep in mind they are firing upwards. It's a Chevy 2500HD ... big truck, four door, custom center console ... woofers in the back half of the truck firing upwards. Bucket seats in the back if you can picture it ... the console divides…

well i have fianlly taken some pic. of my new ride and the install that we did. its not finished yet but its a start. let me know what u think thanks

Spring break + Coronas + Wakeboarding + 95 degree weather + topless women = Heaven

here are some of the pics i snapped over my break

Ported box is around 2cf tuned to 30 hz,sealed 1.2cf all after displacement

Its for spl only. I have about 6.5 cubes to work with, its for 2 15'' d2s. I want it ported and tuned to 45 hz. i want massive port area and have 14 inches of depth to work with. Any help will be appreciated, i want to put up some big numbers for SI!

post your complete set up (subs, amps, box details) and the car its in. I want to see what everyone is hitting. Also if you know what kind of set up the guy is using who hit 150+ withtheone 12 let me know

just a desperate attempt at trying to find a 15D2 that someone won't be using. I got all excited cause someone PM'd me offering me a New one, but by the time I got home from work and replied it was sold. arrrgh.

of a box.......how do i measure...from the long side or short side..or do i average it? btw, this is being done for the look. i do have a square side to this box, but i want to save it for something else oh yeah..it's going to be a slot port... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

I need a class D amp for my mag15 (since I can't find a PPI PC2350). I am looking for 1000-1500 watts at either 1ohm or 4ohms. I have a PG Tantrum 1200.1 but it sucks my elec system dry and I want to get a Class D amp to help out on my elec system some. So if anyone has any recomendations please add them here. also: FS: PG Tantrum 1200.1

i've heard a few recommendations on box specs for the d2 12" original claw basket 12"... how would it fare in a 1.63 cu^3 tuned to 36hz?

so to my suprise my 12" d2 came in the mail today. It was scheduled to show up on tuesday. (Thank you FedEx!) anyways i wired it all up, my jbl 1200 at 4 ohms, so 600 watts, just to see how it does and play around with it. sealed box, 1.6 cubes after displacements. well wow, this sub is very very accurate. its so quick. and its suprisingly loud off just 600 watts. i cant wait till i wire my jbl up to 1200 watts which will be in a day or two. Pics will be up tonight as i dont know where my sister is and she has my cam. side note - i didnt hear any ticking noise for most music, but i played a bass song that plays low to high notes and it seemed i heard a kind of rattl…

you should come out with some speakers for DIY people. like some 6.5 o 8 inch midbass drivers! ive heard lots of cars with nice systems, but getting your midbass to match the sound of your sub is really hard. and in my preference i think it sounds really nice when your sub sound matches the midbass cuase it sounds more fluent. i would def buy SI midbass stuff to match my sub, long as you dont bust out that 230 bucks per driver stuff that makes us all poor hehe. i dunno thats just been running through my head today
