  1. Post edited w/ cut list.
  2. Because Aluminum Coils can handle much more power. Here's a 3D model of an enclosure for those drivers.. i have the cut-list around here somewhere Box is 8 cubes NET with around 135 square inches of port tuned to around 36 hz. Port is 6" wide Final box dimensions: 45"W x 20"D x 24"H -- with a double baffle Top/Bottom (3) = 45" x 20" Side L (1) = 19.25" x 22.5" Back (1) = 45" x 22.5" Side R (1) = 18.5" x 22.5" Front (1) = 38.25" x 22.5" Port 1 = 12.5" x 22.5" Port 2 = 3" x 22.5" **** It is your choice whether or not you want to put a 45 on the inner port wall (the 90 degree) so that airflow is better throughout the port **** Port 2 will be mounted on the SIDE of port 1 NOT on top of port 1 (this is so that the first part of the port is still 6" in width -- port is 6" in width
  3. No details
  4. Thats right! Welcome to the family haha
  5. I was expecting twin turbos haha I love that color and truck! Real nice job. What was the price on the rims? What brand are they? Come with the rubbers?
  6. Oh yeah, the box.. OMG NUTZ! No details yet though haha shitty luck. I live in AZ so rain is like a third nipple, we never get it and always want it.. but once its here we're kind of worried
  7. Arizona should love this lol
  8. I have respect... well, maybe lol (2) SMD 18"/15" ( whatever fits, thats what we're figuring out now ) (2) Sundown 4500s/AQ3500s Leaning towards the 4500s
  9. The Gang Signs make this video a fail. Do you have stock interior speakers? Also, why does it seem that sub woofers make people turn into OGs? hahaha I was shootin the video and those dudes showed up so I figured i'd get um in it. lol Not stock speakers. Why do you ask? I was wondering because the vocals were lacking, yes.. its a video of the system and i know it could be misleading. I like your wood skills. 4x6's aren't great, they don't have good midrange. I'm in the process of working on that. Thanks on the complement. That was my first curved box. I'm planning my next build. It'll either have flared ports and/or curves in the box to get more airspace. I showed my brother this, he has a single cab and is stumped on how to fit a nice system in it, he like the center counsel. Also, if your doors are like mine.. you could jack my idea on the front stage check my log. Could you PM me the dimensions of the boxes behind the seats?
  10. Enjoy.
  11. Today i went to my truck to take pictures of the space i have to work with behind the seats and i said fuck it i'll take a video for the guys on SSA and also to show the room i have even more It was hot as hellllll so i didn't take time to make the video good, i just kept shooting. I haven't previewed it yet lol.. hope its good! Processing in YouTube now..

  13. Don't get the PDX4.100 Get the PDX-F4 Because i like to make things complicated No, but it's easier on the amp if it's 1ohm instead of .5 so.. thats why. AQ is the winner.
  14. yes, steve at FI wanted to go in a different direction than nick so they branched off and steve started his own brand Ascendant Audio, the companies are completely unrelated regarding owners and employees, but the technology is very very similar, if you look at an fi q vs an AA havoc you will find them very similar. both use teh same surrounds and spider structures, i have seen both and the build quality on both drivers was superb I currently run 2 Ascendant audio havoc 15's in a sealed enclosure, they slam pretty good, but they sound incredible both teh fi Q and the Ascendant audio Havoc are designed for sound quality first and loudness second, it does the first VERY well, and still manages to do a damn good job on the second. the havoc is alllmost as loud as the fi bl to the ear, but the bl shaves a few more db at the meter. The mayhem is ascendant audio's answer to the FI BTL, overall i would say they are an even match, though i would still choose Mayhem because to my ears they seem to hit the higher bass a little harder then the btl, but below 45 hz for both subs it is a dead heat. the SMD series is jsut insane, that's all i got to say about it, i don't have another sub to really compare it to that i have actually heard before, but if you want to ask me " is it louder then the btl?" or "does it beat the Mayhem?" the answer will be "yes, deffinately" That guy proved in the same post that he has absolutely no knowledge of woofers or the company that makes his woofers. His post = Well yeah.. we all know that lol but i just love reading that the SMD is amazing, makes it easier when i send the money out for two lol

  17. True, I wish Alpine made PDX amps that do 4500krms + as many filters as AQ
  18. Check my sigggg, he does bomb work.
  19. Are you kidding? There are way too many options without budget. You can go with any decent brand and can get two 2ks or a 3.5-5k amp. I think we're going to go with the AQ3500, and no.. i wasn't kidding
  20. AQ3500... hmm, I think we have a winner. Keep the suggestions coming if possible.
  21. Leave budget out of suggests guys, thanks. All amps are accepted
  22. Me personally do not like threads like the one i am making currently.. but i just need suggestions for my brother. He's getting (2) 15" BTLs for a 99 Dodge Dakota RT. I need amp suggestions, either.. (2) 2k amps that can be strapped OR (1) 4k amp The amps can be around 2k or 4k. We've thought about AQ2200 and SAZ-4500D Thanks, BanginGMC.
  23. whats wrong with a fmod? X2 ///M5. I'm sure you have a good reason for staying away from them. also can anybody recommend a half way decent external crossover. I really just need a high pass crossover because the amp im using already has a low pass on it Try Alpine.
