The box is going to be the limiting factor if he's able to do 145s.

Scott, you know you got to show pictures. Of the ZJ and "other rig". On topic. My dad has a 81 CJ7. 4inch suspension, 3inch body, 38x14.5. 500hp AMC 360. Rear locker, front TruTrax(spelling), and 4.56 gears. Its his baby, that everything I drive it something breaks and he wants to kill me. I want to upgrade axles and do a coilover long arm conversion, along with some other things. But that's down the road.

Yes. Care to share? Or at a later date? Too early to share yet as it is not solidified quite yet. I don't see the cooling changing, but until it is in production, I am not going to say anything as of yet as things can always change if we feel we need to. Total understandable. Being this way seems harsh, but it actually protects the customers. Which is a good thing.

I've built a box with glue and brads and within a hour I was listening to it. I never had a problem.

I personally would go with the Havoc and 1000rms amp.

Doing a box with the sub firing down, with a false floor, it will give off a bandpass effect. Which could be bad if it gave off the wrong tuning, it would throw off the whole response of the sub. If your worried about the sub touching other stuff you could always try a 4th order bandpass. It will yield similar results of a ported box. Then you won't have to worry about what my other part of the post says.

Stupid question: If his alts are done and have been forever, and you're just waiting to complete the brackets......why not ship the guy his alts (more than likely the most costly part of this transaction), and DC Power contract and pay for someone like tejcurrent, another manufacturer right here on this forum, to build the brackets? It seems like this would go a long way towards completing the transaction on a pretty timely basis. At the very least, this would put the biggest chunk of change back into the OP's hands by having a tangible product in his possession. Then the only thing left is the bracket, which if another manufacturer such as tejcurrent can't produce on a timely basis, it's less of a refund that would need to be made by DC. And the OP can be on his merry way finding someone who can build a bracket for him. With all of the machine shops in the US, and another manufacturer right here on this forum whose explicit business is building alt brackets, I can't believe this isn't something that could have been completed at least since the start of this thread.....much less nearly 2 years. I totally agree. Personally if I was a company, I couldn't hold a persons money for two years without product. There are to many other options to for brackets these days, and 2 years, that's crazy. I couldn't wait that long even if I haven't paid upfront. I don't know how in the world you let them dick you around this long. I hope this can get settled. I always thought DC was a good company, but regardless, this isn't right.

I'm not if this has been stated or not, but does it having any special CNC cooling? Or anything of that sort?

The Dual 1 sub cannot be reconed to dual 2. Also, they just changed the design from two slugs to one. I don't think you can mix the two subs. They might be close, but still, I wouldn't suggest it. Just search around the forums, I'm sure you can find a good used one. Only problem with that, Over time, Q's suspension changed. Some had different spiders than others. that could possibly be a problem. This is where Nick or Scott could help you the best.

Any updates?

I'm not 100% but I'm sure it could be fixed. Try contacting Sony and see where they lead you.

For some reason I can't edit my post, but I didn't choose these 5x7s, they was already in here when I bought the truck.

But my point was if I'm going to upgrade, I want something good. As far as what I have now, I don't have to upgrade, their not terrible but if I didn't have any bass, I couldn't listen to it.

Your welcome. Next time look around, and maybe even search. Heck google, how to get amplifier gains with DMM and I'm sure something would of came up.

Just contact Nick at Fi/AA. He will lead you in the right direction. I actually have a few laying around. If you can't come up with nothing I'll see about getting one to you. But try emailing Nick first.

You spelled which wrong... Unless you want a witch line driver... But I've never heard of that. But a line driver is pointless unless sorry headunit output and or 4 or more amps.

I can hear it enough, I hate really loud vocals. I don't want anything louder than what I got. I want something different than what I have. Its just to plain and raw. I might wnat something that's impossible to get. I don't know. But I need something better than I have.

Guts?

I don't have my front speakers on a amp? And I've been upwards of 148dbs, and could hear the music fine. They need to reply but anything else can be said. I do 148 on music in lower 30Hz and even I can't hear the music sometimes. Was that 148 a burp? 149.3 burp. 148 music. Peak. My port score isn't much higher. Lol.

2 years??! That's crazy. Regardless.

That's gay Nick. But fair enough. I'd wanna keep a few protos as trophy's.

I'm going how stuff works stage. I'm researching everything I can at the moment. Maybe after CES, I can ride up and hang with you for a day, and you can show me some stuff.

No offense, but why did you post that question here? What FI sub has single 1ohm coil? Heck, what sub in general has that coil configuration?

They are aftermarket, but nothing special. Without bass, I cannot listen to them wide open, they hurt my ears. Lol.
