Fi Btl 15 Help
man, i wish my starter sub was a BTL! you do not want to use only one coil. it will not play to its potential. like Rob said, check to see if it is D1 or D2. what do you plan on running for an amp?

BTL
:bigclap: but whether it holds true....now that is the question! i never understood how doubling only gains 3dB... can anyone explain?

i am just afraid that i will lose the very low lows. other than that no other real reason

is 30 still reasonable?

the fact that almost no one is likely to steal a radio out of a '99 ford, is my reason. i am amping the doors, and tweets. so power isnt an issue. i just cant afford to replace anything if it is stolen. i am tuning to 30. no questions. i know why i am doing it. and if you think that all i listen to is one type of music, i have to call you wrong. and the fact that the woofers are 56 bucks, is no concern to you. i have heard those woofers in the same box i am having made. 4.0@30hz and they are excellent for my purposes. so no. i am not going to bow in and spend a kagillion on woofers of your choice. i have already decided this is alot of money to be spending on a darn near 10 year old car. if and when i get a new one, sure, i will upgrade from factory, and do all that good stuff. but not now. hell that HU is worth more than the car! Edit: sorry if i come across angry... i haven't been sleeping much, doctor is adjusting A.D.D. meds and whatnot.

i am just looking for maximum airflow at lower frequencies, while maintaining good sound quality. deadening is already accounted for... so in other words, really loud but sounding really good. i don't even know if thats possible really, i want to be able to show off, like have someone get in, and hop right back out, but i want it to sound excellent doing that. i have decided to go pioneer all the way, doors, tweets, and subs. maybe, eventually amps. (for now it's the Autotek) what i am still in the air about is the HU. i want to get the 08' premier, a little down the road, but i also want to keep it stock, so nobody says "hey fancy!! lets steal it!!" plus, the stock radio sounds decent, other than the fact that it is radio+cassette, no CD player. i don't think i will keep the rear speakers connected, just because i wont really hear them, and thus i wont need them. (plus, thats a bit of cash i could save on the overall project) this car is going to be a sleeper. i will keep as much as i can stock. no stickers, thats a dead tip off that i have something valuable in my car, only thing i have to do looks-wise, is vacuum it up, fix the scratches (some fag keyed my poor car, as if it isn't ugly enough as it is) and of course, wash and polish it. it really isn't all that bad for having 164,000 miles on it. Just went to go talk to my dad, and completely lost my train of thought. what ever, i think this is a long enough post already

really? what would you recommend I tune to? ~31? And you say Power-Master ... why?
-

A '99 ford contour. I already have the car, thats not a problem. Only thing i have to do to make it legal, is get new stickers, and a new windshield.

its set in stone. Two 1200w pioneer premiers in 4ft3 @28hz then maybe after i get a job some champion pro's this is my last idea. please remain constructive. this is for low frequency SPL amp will be an Autotek 1500D optima red top under the hood, a yellow in the trunk. big 3 anything else i need?
-
Wiring ?'s
not enough room in my trunk i would love to, but in order for me to get a custom box, i have to save up more than this current box and the three woofers combined. just not practical at the moment.
-
Wiring ?'s
oh i see....i just parallel? i was thinking it would be really confusing. thanks would i void the warranty on a sundown amp, if i ran it at 0.8ohms? not really into buying one now, much to costly, but for future reference.
-
Wiring ?'s
how would you choose to wire three single four ohm subs? likewise, how would you choose to wire five single four ohm subs?

(DSB) i have found something, i think i am going to stick with. i will be running them sealed, off of 800rms. my brother is giving me an amp, not sure as to what kind. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_8572_K...+KFC-W3011.html i have heard a pair on an alpine pdx 1000.1, and they sound pretty nice. sealed, with 1cuft after disp. i will be running 3 at 1.5ohm in a sealed box. i may eventually build a custom box myself, but that is to be done after new years, as i will be out of town for christmas

Denim, M5, or someone, please lock the thread. i made a mistake in my posting and i am beginning to regret saying anything. the more questions i ask, the more alienated i feel on this site. this should be a place for fun, learning, and sharing ideas, not ripping on the noobs.

second.. and did he say he was gonna steal wood from his neighborhood? no, no, the consturction guys are gone for the winter, and threw all the spare wood into a dumpster to be thrown away.

In addition to the fact that they dont give me all that much listening pleasure does anyone have any experience building hex boxes? i have to do it myself, as i can only afford these woofers without the cost of a box... http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_10314_...+15-PR12D4.html

"http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_14832_...+JH4510X2D.html" No. had bad experiences with MTX http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_3870_Kicker+DCVR104.html and http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_3872_Kicker+DC124.html No. Kicker's products may be good, but not to me, not for what you pay for them.

i really like the design, if someone can help me with dimensions on a hex box, i will happily build it. wood is all over my neighborhood, still in construction in some areas. also, i need help figuring out the effectiveness of the following: the three main subs facing outwards, like normal. then two more subs inverted, facing down into the box. my brother did this with his five memphis subs, and it hit the lows like no other. was it just luck? or is that truly effective?
-
nitro audio
yeah, my total budget is 300+s&h so 140 for the box, then ~50 for subs
