Home Sub (Scott please help)
Isn't touchy..just isn't ready for release with blueprint, if you need it fairly soon a polished Q woofer will work.

fi btl n3 surround ripping
Regardless...it is moving too much. That surround runs out of gas at 35mm, you run out of space from the spider to the top plate at 33mm... Something way far wrong. Most likely the screen print on the end of the amplifier case that has absolutely no relevance to the potentiometer that is the subsonic filter. If you spec 2% parts on something you very well may get 20% parts..which isn't a big deal...right? Here's why it is a big deal and why overseas manufacturing sucks due to them using "equivilant parts" and you not knowing what the heck they are doing. Difference in 20% and 2% variance parts? Few years back the JL 1000/1 even admitted in their manual that the 25Hz end on the subsonic filter was actually 16Hz and the 45Hz end on it was 60Hz. So if you get somebody's cousin that has a billion 20% variance parts and he cuts you a deal to buy all of them for 1/4 of what the 2% variance part guess what you get? The 20% ones! Because..they save money that way. However, your 40Hz "setting" on that filter could be 20Hz..because you have no idea how off it is..the only way to check it is by putting it on a scope, or by doing it how I told you to do it. The only other thing that could potentially be wrong is your box tuning is way off because you didn't subtract the displacements.

Home Sub (Scott please help)
We'll have the HT stuff rolling for blueprint in the not so distant future.. Sounds like you need a Q to me, but..depends on what kind of box you plan on putting it in.

Fi 18" BTL N2 looks different than my other N2 18"
American basket vs. Chinese basket. The cooling technology is the same inside of the motor.. If you sit down and do the math you'll figure out that the surface area of the 12 small holes vs the 3 larger holes is actually within a gnats ass of each other.. New basket only has 3 holes...that's all it needs to vent around the top plate.

fi btl n3 surround ripping
Put a tone cd in..play on tuning, click down 2 tracks, go to half volume or so..roll the filter on the amp up until the sub stops freaking out. The only way you are going to snap a surround is by not having a subsonic filter set properly, or you are playing far below tuning.. It's like driving a new car without brakes into a wall..speaker is stupid, does what you tell it to do..just like the car with no brakes.

Recone Glue
No dude that is not an epoxy, if you mix it you are going to have a fire and burn yourself. It is CA glue. The black stuff is the glue, the clear is the activator. You put the glue on, hold the object down and lightly spray it with the activator...there is no 'ratio'. We sell things like this and recone kits with the assumption that people understand how to use them..

so im putting subs in my 1965 mustang....
He doesn't need a Q with that amp..it'd be fine with an X. It's what 120 bucks? Machined and built in the states in house..and isn't imported. Call me a nut job for paying more for something that's Chinese but eh whatever lol

btl recone flatwound coils
No..the Dual 1 coil is a semi flattened (in the high xmax) the dual 2ohm is completely round. The true flat wire is a short coil and knocks xmax down by 10mm.

Update on 2 12" Q's sent for recone?
Yep got it!

Rival Subwoofers .. beast subs

Update on 2 12" Q's sent for recone?
4th of july holiday man..we haven't been here. We can go ahead and fix the one broken motor and recone the subs now that it's taken care of. It will be late this week at the very earliest.
-
question about the universal option on the BTLs
When you only ever plan on doing dual 1ohm coils and never changing.

I need a 15" BTL N2 D2
4th of July man..we've been out since Thursday.

How do I pay with a credit card?!
Impossible to do that with the way that shipping rates change daily.

Selling it on ebay? What the hell? Send me that information. That is not allowed period.

10 months, still no recone or response
I could have sworn that we had you taken care of because we just built you a new BL and sent you a new sub...I thought at least..as does Scott. Please email me all of your information (Name, address, email address and phone number), we'll build up another one and send you a brand new one out. We never heard anything back from you again so I just assumed everything was taken care of... Definitely want to get this taken care of ASAP.

When are the new SSD subs gonna come out?
If you would like to pay 600 dollars for an SSD with SSD performance we will gladly make them..nobody wants to do that though, so it is not feasible. We tried every possible combination we could to salvage doing the neo motor..it simply makes no sense to do it. Aside from that you are not really gaining anything with neo other then saving weight and it looks a bit different.

btl recone flatwound coils
High xmax coils are not flat wound. Flat wound coil makes a btl have 18mm of linear travel.

Email me your order number that you were emailed. Looks like I-XXXXX/00. I'll figure out the easiest way to go about it! [email protected] Thanks!

SSD's sealed
Should do fine, I would not suggest getting the flat wind coil if you plan on going sealed.

Only thing I can tell you is measure and do the math...2 dimensions is not going to be able to give you a volume figure, you need to know the depth that you can work with as well. Hop on www.the12volt.com there are box volume calculators on there that will help you determine how much volume you can fit.

Enclosure info is here: Cut sheets are here: Odds are if you didn't hear back about a specific enclosure your email is in a spam folder..many people have the bad habit of using no subject at all..sometimes we don't get it. You could also always ask the question here as well if it is specific to something that is outside of what is available in those other two threads.
