Simple solution...get another Q

What would you put in it?
Sub layout would probably depend for me on how the amp rack/rest of the system was laid out...the only two Fi products that I'd consider personally would be the Q or SSD.

External Fuse Question
That fuse is designed to keep the wire from melting in the event of a short. As long as it's properly sized for the wire, you don't have a problem. You could run a lower amperage fuse (assuming there's nothing else drawing power, there isn't a front stage amp?) but *never* a higher rated one...

15 Fi BTL in a Cavalier?
I'd say raise your budget for the amp. What have you done to the electrical system to support 3kW?

Welcome to the IHoP
A typo is one thing, we've all done those. Habitually missing the language is something else...

Welcome to the IHoP
you're going to be an EMT? Hopefully yes. Getting the Basic cert. isn't very useful, but regardless how my interviews go this fall I'm taking the class. I'd like to end up with higher level certifications, but we'll see.

God dammit, it's I'M GOING TO. He posted build pictures of it. Shitty material, but it's not a prefab.

Freestanding subwoofer Amp
Could always just build a rack...not that difficult.

"A Basic Guide to Crossovers" and other things
I thought it was a little oversimplified and generalized in places, but OK.

Just sayin Hey
You aren't "underpowering" them at all

Considering a Transmission Line build up
For a subwoofer line, PVC generally isn't very practical. "Port" lengths are too long, so unless you're considering a 14-foot high straight pipe like Nelson Pass used I'd go the slot route. Although few things are as visually (and sonically) impressive as a sub pipe that's over two times as tall as you and is flat to 13Hz :drools: If you're even thinking about a TL, http://www.t-linespeakers.org and Martin King's http://www.quarter-wave.com are both required reading.

What's your budget? They mean the same thing.

Welcome to the IHoP
I remembered you did that, I might be asking for advice when I start EMT-B in September

Welcome to the IHoP
It'll buff out. Nice pants BTW.

Considering a Transmission Line build up
Polyfill works as the stuffing, how much you use is determined by your ears and what design you use...it's one of those things that you need to build, stuff, listen, adjust, re-stuff as needed.

Welcome to the IHoP
Interesting stuff...in no way affordable, but maybe there's a future market... http://www.tapeproject.com/

Welcome to the IHoP
Pictures look fine, maybe a bit overexposed but stopping down should take care of that...

BL components
I've heard that before, and I'm really curious to know why they specify that...doesn't seem like anything would be stopping those woofers from going lower, unless they wanted to save themselves from a lot of warranty repairs from people getting stupid and trying to play 40Hz material through them with absolutely nothing done to the doors...
-
BL components
I think you're looking at it the wrong way...you need to be concerned with the front stage going deep enough to allow a somewhat-smooth transition to the subs. Either of those sets would sound great given the proper install. Which takes time to do...
