Looking for a sub
You'd have to get a fully loaded BTL to stand up to that amp without damaging it. I would also go with a Dual 1 ohm woofer and wire it to 2 ohms so you only send 3000w to the thing.

hooking up an extra batt
You could, but it would provide you with less than optimal results. And the fact that you're even thinking about putting an extra battery in means you probably don't have a small system. I know you have 2 15" ICONs. What did you wire your car with already? Edit: yeah that fuse block will work fine. Edit2: you don't need to fuse the 1/0awg coming off the second battery into the distro. Stop editing your post damnit.

After workout food/drink
Hmm, I was with you until you said 9pm and light. My workout ends at 6, and I usually get something high in protein. Or I grill a steak and have a leafy salad.

Home Audio Subwoofer Suggestions
Look into some Kef Audio stuff on ebay or at a dealer. Preferably get them the PSW2500. You'll be happy with the results. I am (I have two)

hooking up an extra batt
4 awg can only handle 150a max. So fusing with a 300a fuse isn't going to work for you. Also, stay away from AGU fuse holders for this application. They only go up to 80a. You'll need Mini KF/ANL or ANL. Grounding all to the same spot is the CORRECT way to ground. Putting amps and processors to different spots is where you run into problems. Run two runs of 1/0awg from the front battery. One for the positive terminal (fuse it on both ends) and one for the negative. Then run the unfused distro off of the rear battery negative and connect the amp grounds to that. Buy a fused distro that can handle 150a fuses for the Positive connections off of the positive terminal.

hooking up an extra batt
You guys are really starting to complicate things. Front Battery: Make sure you do the big 3 with 1/0awg here. Run one run of 1/0awg to the back batter from the front positive terminal to the rear positive terminal. Fuse at both positive terminals. Rear Battery: Run one line of 1/0awg from positive terminal to FUSED distribution block. Distribute and fuse as necessary from here to amps. Run one line of 1/0awg from NEGATIVE terminal to UN-Fused distribution block. Run your amp ground back to here. ^ Un-Ghetto, perfect world way of doing things. You can also add a run of 1/0awg from the front battery negative to the rear battery negative for lower overall ground line resistance.

Problems with my system
No, that's not really the plan. You need to swap his amp into your system. You're not just checking to see if the sub is bad, you're checking to see if your wiring is bad as well.

Amp to power first build
No you really don't want to "bootleg" it. What's your budget? For clean power, you can't overlook AudioSource AMP series amps. They're not SQ beasts, but they put out. http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cf...tnumber=302-600 http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cf...tnumber=302-601 http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cf...tnumber=302-603

cd or ipod?
I didn't know that. If my cd player had Zune control, I'd buy one. Unfortunatley, iPod and Myspace rule our country. Facebook too. And Calorie counting.

Help need sq sub
BP power just enables you to run a tad more power to the Q. You don't need that for SQ.

question on impedance loads on old school us amps
If it lists N/A.. that means not applicable.. meaning NO. Not stable at 1 or 2 ohms.

You can see both terminal blocks in the first picture.- Reconing an Adire Sadhara sub?
That looks more like a Brahma than the pictures of the Sadhara..- RL-P voice coil change?
You could only hook one channel up to the sub... Why not just sell it and get an amp that produces the power you need at 2 ohms?- Reconing an Adire Sadhara sub?
Nick, it's one of their home theatre subs. About four feet tall, cylindrical wood tube, 18" in diameter. The sub was a 15" IIRC. The whole setup was passive, you had to externally amp it. Suggested power was between 300 and 800 watts.- SSA ICONS!
How 'bout that pole vent eh? That should provide some comfort on cold, dark, lonely nights LOL- Sub Choice?
You just have to be careful. Not all amps on ebay are bad, and you're making them out to be that way. - Reconing an Adire Sadhara sub?
