I currently have a Q12 in a 1.35 sealed enclosure powered by a Cadence TXA-1000d. It sounds really good right now, but I cant help but think this sub can handle a couple hundo more watts on a constant basis. Am I right that it can handle more or is it just wishful thinkin?

Cadence TXA-1000d. I was clipping it so bad the felt underneath melted and the dreaded tinsel slap reared its ugly, obnoxious as hell self. So, I grabbed some new felt soaked it with some spray adhesive and showed that tinsel slap whose boss! Now, its all peachy and kicks mucho a$$! I just wish I knew the true rms of the amp to set the gain to the max w/o clippin it.

Not that Ive noticed. Does the sub start makin funky noises when that happens?

What about an analog one, I think I have one of those layin round somewhere. If that would work would you be so kind as to describe that procedure so I can get this set up right?

What about the use of the remote bass knob?

What would you suggest set them at?

Thats probably what it is because, depending on the music, my voltage drops can drop considerably. I'm waiting for some extra cash to purchase a HO alt and do the big 3 which should definitely help my chituation

Yup thats the amp. My first one was DOA and they sent me a new one. I have the gain set at about 80% and the bass boost at abt 50% on average. Would a clipped signal cause it to get hot? The reason I ask is that my system drains the hell out of my electrical system. So, when the voltage drops, it sends a "dirty" signal, correct? If thats true, would this "dirty" signal cause the sub to get hot? I can't afford one o those and I wouldnt know anyplace that would have one to use. Any other suggestions?

I have a Q 12 in a sealed box powered by a Cadence TXA-1000d. I'll listen to some bass heavy music for a bit, then when I get wherever I'm going I will check the sub on occasion and the cone is pretty dam hot! what would be causing this?

The amps are a Phoenix gold R8.0:4 and a Cadence TXA 1000d and it drains power really good. So, I could probably get away with the big 3 and maybe a 200 amp alt if the big 3 doesnt do it?

I currently am running 2 amps, 1 for comps and 1 for sub. It totals 1300rms. So, I would need about a 130a fuse as a estimate, correct? I'm gonna upgrade the big 3 and get a HO alt. I don't really know jack about amps and all that. My question is, can somebody help me figure out what size alt to get? Would a 200a be sufficient? I drive a 97 Exploder 6cyl and I think the stock alt is 95a. Any help is greatly appreciated

Yup, we just happened to have an old one that we used to sell, my boss just let me have it for free.

So, I went out and tested the amp a little. I put the black one on the ground and the red on the power wires and the dial went farther left than it already is? wtf does that mean?

Yup, I just got one. What should I check and what am I looking for, pardon my noobness but ive never used one o these before.
