So do you have a new system? If so, you might want to bump it up to 8 or even 12 ohms, they work way better in that range. I think.

BAN??????? Why? Don't take things so literal... lol its funny you say dont take things so literal. its a joke."haha" Excited to see this thing!

Oh don't get that confused, I've still got waaaaaaaaaaay too much to learn. Sorry, but I've never heard a BL in person. The BTL sounds and performs amazing (lows = sex), but I've seen BLs take a pounding and they seem to do fine. Maybe somebody that's heard both in person can chime in and give you a better answer. Good luck

I considered these as well.. Can they take 200 watts more than rated power daily?

Doh! Switched my numbers. I meant to ask if his was 2 ohms, and if so he would have to get it reconed to 1 ohm. My mistake OP!

Thanks for the link!! I haven't seen those.. Hmm................ 2 10s in a sealed box is sounding pretty good

I bet it would. We'll see.. SD? Do you have a link?

Hmm so I could run 2 E8s at around 250 each.. It's an idea. The two SAs ported at 2 ohms is starting to appeal to me a little bit more though...

That's an idea. Hmm.. You don't think the E8 could handle ~500 watts at 2 ohms?

My enclosure was ported at 32 htz ... Why you want sealed ?? Mainly going for SQ. I don't want this enclosure to get too complicated.. I guess I could do a small ported enclosure. Maybe I'll go with an enclosure where each side is isolated from the other, each with a simple slot port towards the middle. That'd be pretty easy and would probably sound good. I wonder if I should do sub forward with a cage or sub up...

Thanks for the replies guys. Do either of you know if the SA-8s like sealed enclosures, and if not, do you know of any other 8s that perform excellently in them?

I have an 18" BTL and it'll get loud without a doubt. You need to help us help you by telling us your space limitations. I'm assuming you have the space for 2 12" BLs simply based on the fact that you're considering a 15" BTL. Short answer: 2 12" BLs vs. 1 15" BTL on the same power: I personally would go with the BLs. Is your sub 1 ohm DVC? If so, you're going to have to get it re-coned to 2 ohm if you'll be running a second at 1 ohm. If you haven't seen this before, be sure to utilize it when needed.

Here's the space I'm working with. I'll take some dimensions tomorrow; too dark/late right now.

I'm thinking about doing a sealed setup under the back seats of my truck for days that I need my back seat. Do SA-8s like sealed boxes? I have an AQ2200D, so if I'm not mistaken, I can run a 2 ohm setup at around 550 watts per sub. Goals for this system: Sound excellent. Not looking to break windows with this system, I just want it to sound great and get pretty loud. I have my 18 for getting loud. I would just like to have some bass for the periods of time I need my back seat. SA-8s might not be my best option. I could do a pair of 10s or maybe even 12s. I don't want to spend any more than $400 for both subs and box materials. Any suggestions for what would work for me?

dB-r Electronics There's a link to the amplifiers Ohjay mentioned. I've heard nothing but good reviews about dB-r. Good luck

I know!!!!!!!! Here is the e-mail that he replied with this morning. Re: Amp Return From: Michael Stephens <[email protected]> Add to Contacts To: Burke Sellers <[email protected]> My amp technician that we use is on vacation this week, I found out Wednesday, so I will have an answer the first of next week, I do apologize for the delay, thank you Michael S On Thu, Jun 2, 2011 at 4:21 PM, Burke Sellers <[email protected]> wrote: Any word on the status of my amp replacement?

Looks great man! Tuned in

Thanks man! I want to get somewhere near your level someday

Michael @ AQ told me I would have a definite answer tomorrow. He said they "let go" of their technician (I'm assuming he means fired, as I don't know why he would word it like that if he had gone on vacation or something), and he was trying to see what all he had finished/resolved. Maybe I'll have a new, functioning amp by next week

Northern Alabama here right in Huntsville. You guys are a good little ways away from me. Car looks good

Somebody's not utilizing the "MultiQuote" option to raise his post count Just kiddin My aunt owns an egg as well. Sunday we made pizza, and yesterday 2 butts. Talk about delicious. I love that thing.

Looks good man, I'd go for it

Thanks man! I love your setup. Yeah it was crazy.. Oh well. Maybe I'll get my new functioning one soon. Still bugs me that I got the ONE malfunctioning amp haha. Thanks man! I don't really have room for an 18 either

Amp was shipped back to AQ today at the tune of $51.45 Maybe I'll get my reimbursement and new amp soon.. Brother wanted his amp back, so obviously I obliged. I'm bassless
