  1. Goal and "list" don't at all match. Absolutely idiotic to choose power before the box and goals.And without both of those NO ONE can help you "pick" So My goal and list do not match ok. Now you have confused me? I want to build a car audio system. I do not want to build something that I can walk in off the street pay some guy and in 4 hours its installed. This is my first serious build and all I asked for is some assistance in choosing my equipment. So I won't choose my power yet and I will get my box size for you so I quit making bad decisions. Sorry for waisting your time I just wanted some help.
  2. I hope this helps. Goal - can't really say exactly at this point I just want to build a system for my daily driver. Budget - unknown, not unlimited Purchase/System list: -Alpine HD-137BT -big 3 upgrade -2 15's FI either SP415 or the BL(This is why I got on here to get opinions to help with my choice) -Cresendo either 3500 or 5500 (still to purchase depends on which sub I choose) -Replace car interior speakers (Need to look at still) -sound deaden interior of trunk and car(Already purchased just waiting for warmer weather to complete) -Build box myself -Battery upgrade Box size - I have not build it yet waiting on sub choice(This is why I got on here to get opinions to help with my choice) should be between 6-8cuft of space available. Hopefully this information will help.
  3. BL sub not neo unless somone can change my mind thats why I am asking these ??????
  4. I am going to purchase some FI subs. I am looking at 2 15's. I have been looking at the Sp415's but have been seeing alot of people have been going with the BL series. Now the BL N series is the neo mags which increase the cost. this is for my daily driver. I like my music loud. Here is some back story to where I am at. I went to a shop that took good care of me 10 years ago but all they wanted to sell me was JL audio. I think that is great equipment. Just not wanting to follow the heard. He sold me an alpine HD-137BT Head unit, 4 gauge amp wiring kit, JL 500/1, Arc Audio ARC 12d4 sub in sealed 1.25 cuft box. I have added polyfill, and had to turn up bass boost to get sub where I felt like I enjoyed it. Now I have turned bass boost down due sub noise during long low notes. My original thought was to go with 3 arc subs on a 1200.1 arc amp. However I will not be able to build the correct box and still be able to keep radius to fit those subs. SOOOO on to two subs and why I am I want the 15's. Can everyone chime in and explain what I would expect to hear in differences between these two models either the BL or the SP415's?????? As far as amp I am looking at the cresendo or sundown with power between 3500 or 5500 models??? I will be building my own enclosure by looking at the requirements for these subs It will need to be between 6-8 cuft??? depending on when I size trunk to what I can fit realistically. trunk opening is 34 inches x 15.5 inches and trunk depth is around 40 inches. This will be my first ported enclosure so port dimensions with getting it to the correct frequency have me confuse to what I need per factory specificaitons????? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. I have been leaning towards the SP415's but after looking at cost I could save quiet a bit if I go with the BL's. Just let me know your imput will be greatly appreciated. I will make these fully loaded which ever one I choose. FYI
