    That is the dual 1 no additional cost. wise ass's, what options would you recommend for street A, currently each one will be seeing 2200 ish watts, later on when the 3000d comes out they will be seeing 4400 ish watts each.
  2. the motor/ magnet structure is almost the same width as the cut diameter. The only downside's to the 10" btls is they don't play music very well, if at all from what i heard. I might for the beginning of the season run one 12" btl with a 1500d per coil @ .75 ohms, than eventually run one 3000d per coil (if it comes out this season) to a pair of 10" btls. Nothing is final yet. Testing will commence shortly (will be purchasing my first 1500d this friday)... Although a DD or audioque are being considered as well.
  3. I know Jacob, Scott and I are in talks for a pair of BTL 10"s.

    bump for the price on .75 ohm coils?
  5. nice score!
  6. ill be honest, even though i'm a Dodge baby, born and raised, I have always wanted a 300zx.
  7. That's like saying Fi is Re because the brain behind it is the same. So many things are shared in this world whether it be sub woofer soft parts or amp boards, or computer brains and suspension parts from other manufacturers.
  8. Actually i would debate that whole-heartedly. Chrysler has been an American staple, and unlike Ford who has been going under since the 60's, Chrysler has re-invented itself several times over and over. Chrysler did the mini-van, was working hand in hand with many many cars. In 95 Chrysler introduced the neon that was the most powerful, best handling car in its class at the time. Which dominated road racing into the early 00 years. Reintroduced the neon in the srt-4 form, and re-invented the muscle car philosophy in America. The fact is, only once chrysler started its come around did Mercedes buy it. Than Mercedes has been driving chrysler into the ground to further tarnish the reputation of the company before it could sell it. Dr. Z is hated in Germany for his love of Chrysler cars "because they aren't German" 2003- Srt-4, magnum, 300... all huge successes. Mercedes input- the crossfire, failure.
  9. really liking it, now you know you want to sell me that 300zx!
  10. sundown, ftw... can't wait for the saz-3000d

    same price? as the dual 1? thanks in advance.

    scott nick or sean, is it possible to get the btl 10 in dual .8 ohm voice coils??? I'm using them strictly for street a burping.
  13. the bad news is, you are only pushing 600 more watts, for a total of 2200. Not that its not a lot or anything but doubling the power is 3 dB's, so you are talking about 1.25 dB gain theoretically. And not only are you pushing more watts, you are drawing more current.
  14. Jacob, are you gonna be making a 10" nightshade???, lol.
  15. Jacob, like all other amp manufacturer's uses fuses for a reason, to help to save the amp in the case of misuse. Some amps can do more than their fuses add up to, internal capacitors etc... But if Jacob put 60 amp fuses in their, than anyone who was trying to run the amp @.5 ohms and didnt have the electrical, well lets just say that even with the 40 amp fuses he had to end the .5 ohm coverage.
  16. I would set it as low as your front soundstage can handle. like 63 or 80 hz.
  17. hatch
  18. twice as many amps, equals twice as much current draw. Did you set your gains with a dmm??? what are your box specs?
  19. wire the coils in series (down to .5 ohms per sub) and than wire the subs in parallel to get a final impedance of 1 ohm

    hey scott, how much would it be for a pair of 10" btl's built for street a, with dual .8 ohm voice coils (so i can run them at .4 ohms each)... you can email me a quote or pm it if its easier my email is [email protected]

    currently negotiating with an amplifier company about doing comps for spl, I have no problem buying a burp woofer, it just means that i will be building multiple boxes and buying even more fi subs
  22. audio-neon posted a topic in General Fi
    Today I met a guy (goes buy oldschool on termpro) who does like 155.9 with two twelves in db drag. Well personally I wouldnt want to compete with him *street b* so i was looking at doing a street a setup but i have heard that the 10" btl's are not musical that they are just for burps only. So a few questions: 1> How musical are they??? 2> How much power can they handle??? (looking @ 2000 watts right now) 3>Would doing one 12, or 3 8" be better???
  23. phase shift is 0 or 180, localization occurs at around 100hz, its when your ears can determine the source of the sound.
  24. two sundown sae 1000d's is $450 go to the sundown forum to read all about it.
  25. There are quite a few people here running 4kw watts to their btl's daily, but as scott, nick and sean will tell you, its all in the enclosure, i would not put 4kw to a sub in a box that is on the small side. Personally I think you should just do one 18 in the trunk first and utilize all of the space, make the box on the bigger side of Fi's recommendations.
