hey guys i just ordered my FI BTL and since i know they are swamped with orders im in no hurry to build a box. i would rather take my time and do it rite. i just need some suggestions on how big to make it and maybe a design. measurements for my vehicle are 44.5x17.25x33 and its going in a 2006 king ranch expedition. its an 18'' btl and i would like to tune the box to 32 htz oh and i have a hifonics bxi2610d and am ordering a DC power HO alt i have 2 yellowtops with lots and lots of 0guage if i left any info out let me know, still kinda new to the forum

I went to acoustic edge in Houston. I looked into many other schools before making my decision. Acoustic edge is by far the BEST school to go to if you want to go to school for car audio. Also their was a guy who went to that school in Florida at acoustic edge with me. He said the installer institute in Florida was worthless and he didn't learn anything. As for getting a job after school. It is encredibly easy because shops are calling the school every day looking for people coming out of the school. If you want to go to school for this go to acoustic edge. Acousticedge.com stereoschool.com also if anyone has any questions about the school don't be scared to PM me. I will be more than happy to answer them

Thanks for all the info guys helps a lot

So the welding wire 0/4 is ok to use for runs from main battery to secondary battery? Rite? And can you use the 0/4 for a big 3 upgrade

Thanks

Does anyone know a good place online to buy 4/0 guage wire from?

Ok alright. Sorry again. And I need 25 posts to buy anything?

I'm sorry Im not trying to sidestep any rules. What am I sidestepping? I'm only asking so I don't do it again. And I don't want to cause any trouble on the forum

Thanks for the links krazykenkid

I'm in Houston tx. If you could get that 3000 for that great of a deal I would buy it in a heartbeat. Haha

Well I think they are like $600 new (correct me if I'm wrong but I was looking for one used for under $500. If I can find one under that it would be great

Wow a 3000 for 374?!?! That's awsome haha

Anybody have one for sale?

I'm looking for a amp for my Fi BTL 18(ordering next week) and I think a saz2000d and a BTL 18 would be a nice combo.

Can I still place a preorder?

True. My bad guys. The box is ported and it's like a total of 4ft^3 to be honest with you I don't know what it's tuned to because it was one that a friend gave me, he didn't build it though he bought it. That's why I said it was just a crappy box, cuz it's a prefab. I do however plan on building the Box for the BTL and I can't wait

My L7s aren't in any special box. It's really shitty I just never built a box because I knew I was gonna upgrade

Ok. How much does yours cost and will it keep up with a second battery and the sundown 2000? Reason I ask is because 1 I'm not familiar with HO alternators and 2 one of my friends said the only alternator I should go with is DC because he claims no other companys are good but I find that really hard to believe haha

Perfect I was just about to say I think I'm just going to get the 2000. Because it's not that much more expensive. In your oppinion what brands of HO alternators are good and work well?

Well I am an SPL guy but what I Ment when I said I was looking for clean sound is like for example i have 2 kicker L7s and they are just loud like they don't sound good to me. I want SPL but cleaner if that makes sense and one of my friends had a BTL and I really like how it sounds. But I'm trying to spend under 2000. I already have all the wires and fuses and a secondary battery so I am pretty confident that I can get the BTL and the amplifier for under 2000. What do you guys think?

I had one other question. Where is a good place to buy the sundown 1500? I know that chris with DB-r is a great place to get them but I was just wonderin if their is anywhere else. And the BTL I just get from their website?

I guess I'm looking for a good setup that sounds clean and isn't just a bunch of loud bass like the setup I currently have

That a very subjective question. There is a lot of factors to determine "how that would sound". But if its done right, it will be very loud if thats what you are looking for. Why are there 2 posts of the same thing. No bueno dude. I don't know why it's up their twice. My bad I didn't mean to post it twice. I guess I should have asked if The fi btl and the sundown 1500 are going to work well together. Like is the sundown 1500 powerfull enough for the btl?

Hey guys I'm new to the forum. I'm thinking about getting 1 Fi 18" BTL fully loaded and a sundown 1500. I was just looking for some feedback on how that would sound in a 2006 king ranch expedition
