B-Rich

You know, I am currently torn between the two BL and Q. I am not looking for the highest decibel levels, but I wanna move a lot of air. The BL has only 18mm Xmax, the Q has 27mm Xmax. Thats 9mm more than the BL, it should move more air, have more SQ and take the same amount of power Right? Thanks for any input.

I love this thread, you know you are an audioholic when... You spend every last dime on wires, the battery in you flashlight runs out and you cant afford any new batts. Its 12:00 midnight and you are wiring your system in the parking lot of an apartment complex by candlelight.... In a rain storm. FTW!

Well he wouldn't get statutory if he live in Nevada, at least I heard their limit is 16 there. You could mix the other comments together, A dildo, glued to a subwoofer, in a box...

I need to know the magnet diameter of the current model BL and Q. I am thinking of upgrading my subs in the future and would like to use my current box and need the mag OD. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

tuned to 33 hertz.

I use this calculator. http://www.carstereo.com/help/Articles.cfm?id=31

Ahhhh, my first love.... not the girl, the JBL's! Pics in my old apartment.

do yourself a favor and ditch the power akoustic amp and pick up a real 4000rms amp cause the akoustic isn't putting out close to 4000....also I'd get a high output alternator and do the big 3 Please don't insult me by believing that I believe that the Power Acoustik amp really pushes 4000 watts. Do you think I would put 4000 watts to 1200 watt worth of sub? I bought the amp because it was cheap, not because it could push "4000" watts. This was kind of a budget build. I have all the wire to do the big three, I just don't find it necessary with only 1200 watts right now, and I do plan on getting a HO alt, I'm watching one on ebay right now...

Sounds great, I thought it would hit harder than it does, no hair tricks or anything but it pounds pretty good. Thinking of upgrading to to some 12" Q's in the future, in the same box. I've got the Pioneer TS-D690R's hooked up to a Kenwood 500 watt amp in and they scream! I'll get some vids in later. I don't know how ***** ***** and all those guys handle those doors they make with all that treble, just the 6x9's i've got are ear piercing.

I was thinking of spraying the port sometime, I was just in a big hury to here the subs. I live in Owosso, get on M21 and head east and your there. I will post a vid sometime in the next couple days.

Here is my install of 4 Fi X12's. Not any pics ome building the box, I was kinda in a hury but I have the finished product. Installed in a 1990 GMC Sierra ext cab long box, KnuKonseptz 1/0 gauge wire from batt to dis block, 4 gauge from dis block to amp. All 8 gauge inside sub box (I know, it's over kill.), Box is 8.2 cu ft after all displacements, port is 6.5"x16.5"x19.5" deep, tuned to 33 hertz. I will be installing Pioneer 6x9's and a Kenwood amp that I have. The head unit is Kenwwod. The amp is Power Acoustiks "4000.1". All stock speakers for now.

It happens. Cant wait for the build log as I wanted to see these in a good pic when they were on sale. If you dont like them after the install, you know where to off them at. Actually, I'll be installing them in a truck very similar to yours. 1990 GMC Sierra 1500 ext cab without the back seat. You can just imagine it's your vehicle if you want .

Got them in the mail 4 hours after my post, I feel like an idiot now. I will post pics and a build log in the next couple days. Yeah, I ordered all the X12's, great looking subs. I wired them to 8 ohms and hooked them up to a small 100watt house amp, sounded great for not being in a box yet.
