Subwoofers / Speakers

I recently purchased 2 10" q10 and wanted to know what would be the best box for them to fit in a 2012 ram quad cab

i forgot i had this and found it in the closet. its got a small crack in the cone. what should i do with it. would it be worth trying to get someone to recone it? tried testing the coils and im getting all kinds of numbers sitting next to my icon thats waiting for a box to be built

i am about to buy this little monster read good reviews on it but also looking for a good amp to pair with it

Will low voltage to the amp cause it to blow the main fuse? Wrong section!

I have 3 Soundstream Exact10's (Love them btw) Each one has its own issue. Now Soundstrem doesnt carry a recone for this sub. I'm new to the whole reconing thing. So I dont know where to source parts and materials needed Is there anywhere that I'd be able to get one or one that will work? Any help/suggestions greatly apprecited

Well, I thought I had my mind made up on (2) AQ HDC315-As. But now I'm seriously looking at a pair of DC LV4XLs (15s) Customer service is definately a big factor and they both seem to have it from what I have read & by talking to the owners. Then they both are very close to price & can both take comparable power (I believe). These would be used for daily & VERY FEW comps. I do know it is mostly installment that determines which will sound better so I guess that's not what I'm asking. Just which do you guys suggest? These would either be powered by (2) AQ2200Ds, or a single SAZ-3000D (also very close in price, it just mainly depends if the sale is still g…

ok guys i am currently running an active frontstage setup with 2 mli 6.5" and 2 infinity 1" dome tweets. it is decent but when i turn on some hard deep bass they cant keep up with the btl the bass drowns out the music part of the song and not so much the words i am starting to build my next project for 2 18" btls so what i am looking for is some ideas for my current setup and my future setup with 2 BTLS i am runnind a sax-100.4 amp for the current active setup there really is no budget atm money is ok right now i just really want the music and vocals to come in real clean when i want to show off the BTL and full tilt thanks an advance guys. again i apprecheate all your g…

Well I currently have a solox 18 and I know that they are two different subs but I got the opertunity to pick up an 18 that hasn't been used for a used price and then I figured I would purchuse another to even it out. I understand that the 2 subs are totaly different. The RLP's will see about 1200 rms. I know thats a little over rated but I figured in the 4 months that I have owned the solox I have cranked it 2 maybe 3 times for about 2 seconds a time so I figured I would be pushing it but should be ok. I would install them in 10 cubes at 27 hz in a dodge ram extended cab. I think that they would sound good and still get pretty loud but would they get louder than the…

i was thinking about getting a 18inch btl, i do not plan on entering competitions i just simply would like to have a system that hits hard (really hard), sounds good, and lasts a long time. i have a 4000 watt hifonic brutus amp, if this is the right sub for me what options should i choose, or is there a better sub, if so which one?

Anybody know of any shops in Fort Wayne, or surrounding cities that does subwoofer repairs? I can't seem to find one.

My buddy just sold me his SSD 12's already in a ported box at about 6 cu. He poked two holes in the surround of one speaker, I knew of this prior to buying them from him. I'm wondering what my options are. I do not want to re-cone it myself, I would like to send it in. However, he has had these subs for quite sometime, I'm almost positive the warranty has already expired. ANY SUGGESTIONS???

alright im looking to get 2 18''s im working with a crossfire xp2400, and up to 18cf i want it to be good quality and loud n low 28-30hz...im thinking the best subs would be 2 XCONs. anyone have any suggestions??? or are these the right ones:) ty for the help!!!

Hey guys i have done some googling and looking around but i cant find a good enough answer to my question... Its it ok to invert subs when mounting them? The general feeling is due to the low frequencies it is ok but at what crossover level does the sub being inverted affect performance? I was thinking of mounting my IXL 10 inverted to protect the cone from occasional lose crap in the boot plus the motors look really sexy :clap: However i cant help thinking that the motor structure must effect the sound quality as the air wave is being impeded by the Basket Anyway if you guys could give input that would be great I was thinking something like this with 2 IXL 10's *This i…

Has anyone ever used these Vifa A16CG-21-04 6-1/2" Coaxial w/Audax Tweeter 4 Ohm? Im thinking about using them in the rear door of my blazer. I will be using them with my sundown 50.4 http://www.parts-express.com/pe/pshowdetl....275&scqty=2 Thanks

Yup..finally ordered my crescendo 5500... Just a few more weeks and i cant wait..... Very customer friendly guys.....

I just got a Fi Q12, running 1000watts from a memphis 16-PRD, and i really need new front speakers, from the stocks. Since the bass is so powerful, i need something that will blend well with the sub. I have a 2007 honda accord V6 EX-L. I am looking for a set up that will sound fluent and smooth with the sub. I am looking to spend around $400 for an amp and a pair of speaker. Do i need anything else to get the front speakers working, (Rewiring, new cables, anything?). because i am on a budget and i really want my setup to sound good.

i have 2 rockford he2 10s i have a banpass box and a rockford ported box whih should i use and i have a jl 500/1 will that amp power these subs and if so how should i wire the subs to get max performance

I'm looking at getting a new 18" sub right now I'm debating a hdc318 and a fi q 18. I have a zx1500 amp so looking to throw 1500 watts at it. I want a sub that will play low as well as get loud I use to run a pair if 12" re se's that did a 144 legal on tl so I want new set up to beat that any ideas I. What to get? I also have concidered a bl but they aren't in the website yet and I need to order sub by monday.

I wish I could enter this forum under better circumstances. I was taking a my 15 Inch Fi BL out of the box and I poked a hole in the surround. I need to know how to repair it or if I need to get it reconed. I have a few pics on my photobucket. http://s293.photobucket.com/albums/mm58/JoeTheChessMaster/ Any info would be great.

In my introduction thread, i had a few set ups for my dodge intrepid that I had in the past and the present one that I do have. My new project is my suburban ls What I am looking for out of my subs is just something that is really hitting hard and worth my money. my thoughts have been -four 15 in subs -two 18 in subs (fi btl's) the amp i plan on running on any set up will be the 2500d orion i am really interested in the Pioneer Premier TS-W8102SPL. has anyone ever that sub as a set up or know any good information about it? i just need some ideas and some knowledge on what will work best for me.

i have rockford fosgate phase one 12 inch subwoofers 8 of them in a 16 cub ft box im trying to get them to hit low and hard they do hit very hard and loud!! but when the songs go to the low bass it drops out they are ported 6 ports 4inch by 3inch deep the ports are all on the front side with the subwoofers thats what rockford gave to me they say that will tunes them to 37hz but it sounds like they are tuned to high and out put around the 50hz and lower drops off and i dont get that lower end that shakes the car and flexs the car just trying to get my point across on what kind bass looking for please help me

Please correct me if I'm wrong. Does polyfil slow down the air in the box and make a sub sound as if it is in a larger box? So say I have a pair of 15s and they require between 1.5 cubes per chamber and 2 cubes per chamber each sealed. Say I put them in 1.5 each, could the appropriate amount of polyfil in each chamber really make them sound as if they are in 2 cubes each?

Im upgrading to 1200 watts soon, so ill either be getting a new single fi bl or q or maybe a second ssd. If i get the second ssd, the new box will obviously fill pretty much my whole trunk. I have a ski hatch that allows air to flow freely from the cabin back to the trunk, and my current setup is noticeably louder with the port open (sub back, port back setup). If i build this new box for 2 12s, would it be smarter to leave some room around the edges of the box and leave some room between the back seats/ski port and the box to continue to allow air to flow into the cabin or should i take advantage of every possible inch of trunk space and forget the whole ski port thin…

Picked up a dual behind the seat truck box for $50 for my crewcab f250. its made for 2 10's with (so they say) 5.25 mounting depth and .75 cubes per side. The amp ill be using is a t5002 putting out 900-1000w @ 2ohm bridged. I looking at the SE SR10d2's they have a 5.25 MD and say they work in small enclosures and the ID10v3's with the 5.25 as well. When the box gets here and if I can mod it to fit something deeper maybe 5.75" so the IDQ10v3's or maybe step up to SR12's or the IDQ12v3's might be an option. both say they will work in that small of an enclosure but im looking for real world opinions. (also can always add polyfill, probably will anyways) so basicly How do th…
