Most of the people I have seen on youtube with BL or BTL in a s10/sonoma, have their subwoofer firing up, and the port also firing up, with the port on the drivers side, sub on the opposite side. 32hz is a good tuning too.

I have a BTL N2 18" in 8 cubes (7.5 after displacement) tuned at 32hz. Hits hard and low! I have the amp turned down to 2000 watts, my amp will do 3000 watts and a little more since I have good voltage. The sub is laughing at the power im giving it, even though its at RMS, still sounds great never the less. Try tuning to 32 or 33hz!

(Ported obviously) Enclosure tuned at 32hz be great,you will love your BTL, it will shake the crap out your car. Buy some sound deadener to deaden your trunk. I hear this stuff is great, the price is right too. It wasn't out of stock the other day but now is since it was onsale.25 sq. feet for $59.84 shipped, should be in stock in 2 weeks. http://audiotechnix.com/

Very true, I bet Gopala would, but hey, taht would be giving Fi more business since he would have to buy a new re-cone! Or less business when this dumbass blows the N2 and goes around telling everyone that Fi sucks because "my N2 blew with no fault of my own". "People told me that the N2 wouldn't blow" Does Fi Audio even ship out of the U.S.? This guy is supposedly from Malaysia.

Buy the 1 12" BTL, then later add another 12" and buy another Hifonics amp and strap them together!

AQ2200D Irun an Audiopipe ap30001d @ 1 ohm (Turned up 2/3 @ 2000 watts) . The 18" BTL N2 slams, My buddy has 2 15" L7s with a custom built box. funny thing is, my box and his were built by the same shop! He has 4000watts and 2 15s. My 18" that is tuned at 32 hz. kills his!

I may be young, I really respect the Cerwin Vega Strokers, I was going to buy 2 12" Strokers ('10 models) they were beast, but then I went with a Fi BTL N2 18 lol.

Looks stealth, nice find Twisted, seems to be a lot of interesting stuff at your work.

Im tuned in, when you get the Crescendo and use it for a bit, tell us how you like it. Crescendo is supposed to be coming out with new amplifiers soon, so im thinking about ordering one up.

I was going to order the 3000D months ago but I think it had been discontinued. I am really interested in how these amplifiers will perform!

I cannot say anything about the fords, but my family and I have driven GMs forever. If maintained correctly they can go to 250k. If the Chevy was a work truck and towed a lot, then it might end up needing a new transmission down the road. I currently drive an '02 GMC Yukon Denali XL (127,000 well maintained miles), I have had nothing wrong with it ever, except a head light blowing out =D. I would not buy any ex-work truck or any vehicle that looked like it hauled/towed a lot with 100,000 miles, just because the transmission most likely would go later on. (Friend's '05-06 yukon 2500 with 160,000 miles towed mostly all highway miles, tranny went died, nice new one costs them $5000-6000 last year). Had a '98 suburban SLT 1500, Mostly highway miles, rebuilt transmission @ 112,000 or 115,000 miles, then at 125,000 miles August 2010, had to replace waterpump, radiator, and rebuilt the A/C system. Everything but the transmission was expected.

What kind of vehicle is this going into? Stick to Fi's enclosure specs, 12-16 inches of port area per Cubic Foot. So, an enclosure that is 3-3.5 cubes after displacement of the subwoofer and port should work fine. I am tuned to 32hz (18" BTL) and it sounds pretty good, port facing rear and subwoofer firing up 9to the roof in a yukon xl.

Totally agreed.

So true, im 18 in school and have the same woofer in my yukon. Hope it slams just as hard as mine!

Wow looks great, how big is the the T.V.? (*for size reference) The enclosure makes it look tiny

8 gauge to sub (raptor wiring) and then 0 gauge ground and for amplifier, and all 0 gauge under the hood! 2000-3000 rms to 1 18" BTL N2 @ 14.4 volts tested!

It would help a great bit, I got away with running a mini sealed 12V battery to help power a Soundstream 2000 watt amp, and a 4-channel amp. I think my stock alternator was 105 amps, kinda small. But my lights did not dim due to using the extra battery. (now i have a Ohio High Amp Alternator)

how about Q ??? Buy both, try them in different applications in your vehicle. That is the only way I can say it. My BTL sounds amazing in a GMC Yukon XL, but I cannot tell you how it will sound in whatever you drive.

Choose the BTL N2, with cooling option, HiXm coil. After playing mine for a week, it made me appreciate the art of hand built subwoofers,since it could hit super low, but at times really show some sound quality. The N3 is not for music, strictly for SPL!

I have an Ohio Gen. Alternator,thing is a beast,easy to install,never have had a problem with it,defiantly worth it!

Try to get a 15" BTL,enlosure designed to 5-5.5 cubic feet tuned @32hz, im tuned at 32 hz (18" N2 BTL,7.5 cubic feet after displacement in a yukon xl) It hits the lows well and still sounds good with reggae,and alternative rock music.
