Bad box woes.
As long as the space between the port and the tailgate is the same or bigger than the port width it should be just fine. My BL is ported up with sub up and it sounds just fine iv actually tried it port back sub back and it wasn't near as loud that way. Only way to honesty tell what way would work better is to try it but i think in your case port up sub up should work out just fine.

Bad box woes.
For a mayhem the site says 3-5cuft. With a box 28x17.5x28 (wxhxd) you get a box with 4.325cuft after sub displacement you'll be around 4.115cuft. Also that's with a port width of 4" by 32" long which gives you 64 square inches of port area or 16 per cuft which is the general rule of thumb i believe. oh and that will leave you with a tune of 32hz. If you want go up to the full 5cuft which will probably give you the best results make the box 32x17.5x24 with 4" port width by 26" long. it'll net you 5.383cuft, 64" square port area, and a tune of 31.34hz

Got my icon today (pics)
looks great man. wish that happened to me with my 1200d haha

cant decide
yeah i figure for the price i can do two runs on 1/0 to the back and still be ahead.

cant decide
Ok im trying to decide on the wire i should get and i wanted to ask if any of you guys have tried them knu konceptz KLMX cable and like it. I also found 25 foot of monster cable 1/0 for 60 shipped i think im leaning for that unless you guys think the KLMX would work just fine.

fi good quality???
if you do get 2 Fi q's your most likely gonna need a battery or batteries an alternator and a good deal of 0/1 and fuse holders so do take that into consideration. i know alot of my friends think you can get a 5000w amp hook it up and go. not to say you thought that but im just saying haha

Which would be louder?
no need to get an attitude the w7 is a great sub but for the money you can do better in my opinion. id rather have a havoc or q before a w7. Not to mention the price of a w7 is out of this world for what your getting.

is a 18 inch ssd louder then 3 cheap 12's
Ever considered a SAE1200d man? nasty little amp for the money.

8 gauge speaker leads?
i don't really see a need but im sure if you can handle a soldering iron it can be done pretty easily.

1kw+ amp resistance with a poll!
why not keep it going haha gives everyone a good idea what all kinds of amps are stable at and the power they make. Sundown SAE-1200D rated - 1200 @ 1ohm said power - 1450 @ 1ohm I totally believe the 1450 it pushes the chit out of my fully loaded BL

depends on install is my honest opinion. buddys 3 eclipse Ti 12s don't hit or sound as good as my single 15 Bl and they should should better in all honesty.

Help with new box.
problem is im going to school in February and it all depends on if i can get a job during school. thus the reasoning for making the boxes now rather than later not to mention i wont have access to the nice big wood shop at my grandfathers living hours away at school.

Help with new box.
Well i can hear the Bl is reeking havoc on my box when it hits the low notes i can hear an air leak even with a monster port. Thing is id like to be able to have to option to move from one 15bl too two down the road. Question is do i build 2 separate boxes and just leave one out for now or do i make say a 8+cuft box and run one in it for now. I don't think that would work considering the port area would be to large for just the one sub right? Anyways i got a 21.5xin40inx26in (HxWxD) space to work with and i can barley manage it but i can get two 21x20x26 boxes with 4.01cuft after displacement and tuned to 32hz in there. what do you guys think i should do?

Dcon 12" prototype
Looks sweet wouldn't mind trying them out to bad im poor and they aren't out.

Need Opinions...
Mine sounds awesome and im right at a grand. Fi Q or Bl is a great choice with a saz1500d. Pick up a yellow top or a good kinetic battery and you should be set.
-
dCON prototypes are arriving today (Video page 3)
hmmmm.... 4 of these on my 1200d might be a plan. either way they look beefy for 3-400 watts that's for sure.

Wiring My BL
Im either gonna strap 2 1200's or get a 3000 Maybe 2 1500's strapped... Not sure yet... Someone wants to buy my amp from me lol SAE-1200's aren't strapable. Im pretty sure i read where you could with a max link. im unsure on that though but it was my plan when i get another bl and 1200d down the road.

putting togather a system for a friend....
To bad the budget isn't a little higher 15" bl or Q on a sae-1200d would only leave you 50 and running 0 gauge isnt cheap

help with front stage
Hey guys i just got my 2 channel am back from my friend who was borrowing it and now i plan on doing my front stage. Its an RF p5002 so 125x2@4 and 250x2@2. Id like to get a good set of components for the front doors, im able to fit 6x8 and 6 1/2s only problem is im on a budget of around 175 max. I guess the real question is what do you guys recommend.
-
help please.
Go the red top in the back today and fixed my under volt problem wont go below 13v now. Also got a little bit of tuning done but it seems like the gain on the amp is touchy. i dont get much of any output around 1/2 mark but at 3/4 its starting to clip and bottom out so i gotta find the happy medium. after i get my 1/0 wire and get everything wired up properly ill get some pictures. i will say though it moves some air my buddy was in the back seat and his hair started to stand up a little bit. i just wanna thank all you for your suggestions everthing has worked out great and im totally content with this setup.
-
help please.
