Subwoofers / Speakers

Is there a 1000w sub that is all around better then the Fi Bl in its price range? Post anything you may have had experience that you think would beat it in output and sound quality. This is just to see whats in my league or better.

soo... i have since sold my 18" XCON and saz1500 since my alternator could not keep up at all. i will be getting a 320HP from DC. and maybe upgrading to a 270XP if that doesnt do enough for me. so, here are my plans: keeping my headunit (Kenwood HD545U) going to be using 2 SAZ-2500D's for which ever substage i go with. i know i will need to get a ton of SDS (sound deadener showdown) not quite sure on my front stage yet. i would like to stay passive. i dont have much room for custom fabrication. but i would like to keep my Hertz hsk165 components. maybe somehow add an additional set? if i go this route, i will get a Sundown saz100.4 Where i need opinions is my substage!…

Solved the problem by selling the MX & buying a mag again I bought another mag, turns out it was my exact same mag i had owned before mx. It got damaged(cosmetic) in shipping. packaging could have been better. but i'll live. No more mechanical noise at least woot. here is the difference

About a small XBL^2 Full Range driver, capable of replacing a tweeter, and playing down to about 300Hz? Sound like something you fella's would be interested in? I know this has been long anticipated for some, including myself... I was thinking one day... Why wait? I have been contemplating having something like I described built.. And starting a little business of my own. It would be small scale, but if I could garner some success from it who knows. Their might not even be room for someone else out there! But I would like to know the interest level before I start throwing all my money into it. So let me hear it! Yes! No! You are an idiot! Tell me your thoughts Jord…

I have a buddy who is about to make a purchase and would like a w6. He's wondering if the 13w6 is worth the extra $90 on egay. I don't have any personal experience with them, so what do yall say? Were going to go with either the JL spec sealed or ported, whichever sounds better on the amp he bought. What do yall with experience have to say? Any help is appreciated. Randy

4 8" sa-8 on a 2ft^3 tuned to 32hz on 1500 watts or 2 10" aa chaos in 2ft^3 tuned to 32 on 1500, Just want to know if it is worth to buy 8s

I am planning on getting a Fi Q or a Fi SSD. I am getting a 12'' I am pretty sure. I got a Autotek 1000.1 amp coming in the mail soon. I an aiming for LSQ but I would like some decent SPL as well. I dont wanna break the bank. Does anyone have any personal experiences with the Q and SSD? Please let me know. Thanks!

which one is going to be best for daily ground pounding ??? sorry i do the comparison threds?

about car: hud: alpine 9831 amplifier: aq 3500.1d 1 stock alt 75A + second alt 100A 1stock bat + 2 deepcycle & 0awg cable box will tune to 32hz, space 5cf is not a problem. music: rap / hip hop / dub step; with low hits It will be used daily, and occasionally in the other box for SPL competitions. I do not know what choice is better: FI btl n2 fully loaded daily variant or AA Mayhem 15' Both are the same specs, same reputation. What choice should I do ? Or wait a few reviews about FI SP4 speakers ?

The sub box is 2.0 cubic ft per sub tune at 34hz with Sundown sa 12. I've heard that with tunning below 35hz your lpf should be around 80hz or below! Any truth to that? And shouldn't the lpf slope play a part say if 80 hz was best is that with a 12db slope or 24db or does that even mater?

I know this thread is a teaser because we don't have the pictures uploaded yet, but as of last night we finished up our latest HT. The system includes a Denon 7.1 receiver, Denon up-converting DVD player, Panasonic 1080p HD projector, HDMI cabling, 20 Hidden Audio transducers, 124" 16:9 screen, Lutron automated lighting, MX900 remote, 2400 watt amplifier, and four BM 12's ported to 30 Hz in a 12 ft^3 box. The neat thing about using Denon receivers is that the upper models (this customer has a 987 model) have a 7 band EQ per channel, where each channel can be EQ'd independantly or the same EQ setting applied to all channels. The receiver is also super user-friendly and v…

I recently blew my sundown sa 15. Cause i abused it. But for now i just want something that with good sq but you can feel the bass. So i think I AM A get 2 alpine 12 inch bass line subs. Anyone know anything about them? Ill be giving them 500 rms. from a hifonics brutus 1200 d

im just about ready to pull the trigger on a Focus Hatch and im really debating putting 4 18" MJ's in it (sealed). ive been wanting an SQ leaning S Q L setup for a while. The enclosure however would have to have 2 of the 18's firing up and 2 firing down. Does anyone know if this style enclsosure would even work? im not too framiliar with wave cancellation and other technical aspects but im just trying to get a feel if this idea is plausible. its this same concept however I would be building the box myself: http://cgi.ebay.com/4-HOLE-10-CHAMBERED-CO...1QQcmdZViewItem ALSO ive searched just about every MJ 18 thread on the forum and im still trying to get more feedback on ho…

In a thread i started earlier i said i was looking to get an icon for my subs, but now that im very close to having the money to have the system put in im starting to lean towards the kicker comp vt for my subs. I was wondering if anybody had any expirence with these subs and if they are worth the money. If i got them i would get 2 twelves and a kicker dx 1000.1 to run them and they will be going behind the back seat of my single cab ford pickup.

Ran across a website that makes speaker pods for my vehicle. (03 Tahoe) http://www.customspeakerpods.com/Front-Door-Speaker-Pods-for-65-Speakers-GM-01-01-01-A.htm Has anyone used these? Price isn't bad at all. The different aiming of the speaker may be a plus. Opinions, comments?

I spy a few of these on e-bay this morning! $175 each! I understand they are also a LMT design! Good price! I might pick one up and check it out! BTW anyone know why in the Book headings for Eclipse it say's a 4ohm SVC... In the specs it says 3ohms DCR(?) DRC(?)

selling my 12" ssps wondering if any one was intrested down in southern california

Ok well I had this all wrote and and stupid me closed the tab out when I was looking up some info. So I shall start again. Overview: Ok, I'm planning on getting back into audio (not that I left for long). My past installs have all been geared toward being the loudest possible. My new plan is to try and make my setup geared toward SQ. I'm thinking about doing a 3 way active front stage. I still planning a sub stage but that is not what I'm worried about. I'm just not real sure on how exactly to get my front stage up and running. Now that you have an idea on whats going on, on to some questions. I plan on piecing my front stage together instead of buying a "kit" o…

Pretty much as the title implies.... I've got a 2004 Yukon XL, and I'm updating the entire system. Just replaced my alternator with a 253amp model from a 3500 series pickup (factory option! bolted right in!), will shortly be wiring up a second 1000cca battery. Dual 1/0 runs to the rear, fused at both ends. Currently only running (1) amp, and old Lightning Audio 1001.d @ 1 ohm, will be swapping that out, most likely to a Skar RP-1501.D. Two Powerbass S10-d (dual coil) subs in a 2.7-ish cu ft box built into the rear quarter panel. Tuning is way too low, probably about 24-25Hz. Factory speakers in the doors and rear pillars, will soon be changing them out - probably doing a …

Heres my video of my SI MAG. This video has been Highly compressed so you can download it with ease, the trade off is lower quality, if you want i can upload the full quality version, but it is a very big file. your choice(both are the same videos just 2 different hosts): http://www.megaupload.com/?d=U95WZNWV order of hearing Bun B - Inauguration Young Jeezy - Hypnotized Akon - I wanna "love" you SI MAG 12" Zapco Reference 1100.1 @ 1 ohm modded so i cant tell you for sure exact wattage but it should be around 1400-1600 watts.

Would you guys be kind enough to recommend a pair of good tweeters... info. Budget- $200 - $250 for the pair Would be connected to a single channel with 160W rms in parellel, 2 ohm load (active). (sax 100.4D) Prefered, (but not limited to), to buy tweeter with x-over, hence gives me the option of going active or passive. Thanks.

I found a 15inch zcon sort of locally for a good price but I dont have enough experience to tell if for sure it is. I will post the pictures of the sub, just dont want to get burnt as its a good deal and kind of seems as if someone could pass it off as another sub. From me comparing pics, the surrounds are the only thing that stuck out to me in the pics between all the ssa lines. I am on my phone now but will post pics when I get home. There is no pic of the dustcap and thats what has me wondering about it.

Ok I am planning on getting 2 Fi BTLs Dual 1Ohm, and running them to a Sundown 3500D, but I seen the Mayhems and started thinking, I know you cant really hear the difference, but Im looking for the most, should I get two Dual 1 and run them to a 4500D? the box will be 2.5^3, 32-34hz IDEALLY. Electrical will be big 3, not sure if I 1 or 2 XS3100s, should run around 13+V(you get the point), 220A HO alt. Budget : $7500, gotta love the army bonuses.
