Doctor Q

i ordered all my stuff yesterday so now i just sit back and wait... it should all be here by next weekend im hoping so i can install it fri/sat/sun ill letcha know how it sounds then

right now i really dont have much time or know-how to do anything so ill just stick with the pro's for this install and maybe do the next myself... im going to ask the guy if the price is negotiable.

Both. If i wanted just loud i'd be gettin a BL Ported... also im not sure i have the money right now for speakers.. that is my next upgrade though.. probably this upcoming summer or right before the summer.

at first i had the same feeling but this isnt just a custom box like the dimensions.. itll be flush with the rest of my trunk and they'll match the carpet almost 100% if not 100%..... it will look kinda like THIS except it will be 1 15" hole.

thanx but for two reasons im going with the 9886... one im not using the money to imprint the 87' which is its main feature and two, i can get the 86' from a place that has great CS and gives me the wires and harnesses and everything. also on a side note. does anyone think i need to do more than just the Big 3. im really tight on money, but then again i want it to work well and if i have to i can spend a lil more to make sure it works.

ummm not yet.. i was but now I AM A get this see how it sounds and if i need to upgrade the rest of my stuff later when i can accumulate some more cash.

Ok so this is probably not the best place to post this but i needed a final "ok" from some people who know their stuff and i know most everyone on here does so that is why im asking. I am ordering my stuff, probably before the 24th since there is a sale on the amp i want, and just wanted to make sure im making the right choice and wont regret anything and that this will work... This is what im buying: - 1 Fi Q 15" 2-ohm (im assuming DVC so i cant wire it to 1-0hm?) ($304) - 1 Sundown Sae-1200D amp wired to 1-ohm ($310) - Alpine CDA-9886 ($300) - KLM 1/0 Amp Kit ($53) - KLMX 1/0 Silver pwr. wire. 10 ft. for the "Big 3" ($18) - Streetwires 12-gauge speaker wire 25 ft. ($42) And then the guy at the audio store is making me a custom box. It will basically shorten the depth of my trunk and big one big wall with the sub in the middle and then on the other side when i flip my seats down i can get access to my amp. 2.6 Cu ft. sealed... box is about $300-350 Does this sound good? Is the box a good price? and am i missing anything or should i change any of it? Thanx for the help guys... im looking foward to poppin my "Fi cherry".

EDIT: mistake.. check my other thread..

Like i said before i didnt mean to put a 10 gauge kit upp... i thought it was a 1/0 gauge.. and its going in a Volvo S70 like i mentioned before thanx for all the respones... and about the SQ comment.. yes i want nice SQ but i also wanted a lil SPL and i thought a 15" sub like this would provide both espeically since it is in a small sedan.. if its not loud enough later on i might get a ported box made

oh haha i didnt realize that was 10 gauge i thouth it was 1/0.. sorry bout that but yeah i know i need atleast 4 but i was going to be safe and get 0 so there was one at crutchfields and then there is one at knu that i looked at but the knu one was 52.99 and then RF at crutchfield was like 21.00 and they are both 1/0. Also, how much subwoofer wire would i need? EDIT: also how much power cable for the Big 3 do i need (also id do it in 1/0) i was thinkin maybe 10 feet? or 6 feet might do it? Its going in a 1999 Volvo S70

sorry i made two posts.. the first time it said it didnt go through so a mod can delete one if they want... anyways..........

I've been researching car audio for awhile but just now became a member here but so far this is what i have in mind for my system.... - Fi 15" Q sealed in a custom box (dont know size yet.. 2.6?) $274 - Sundown SAE-1200D $310 - Alpine CDA-9886 $299 Then i need wires for my amp and my sub... i was thinking of getting THIS for my amp and then use THIS for my subwoofer? Does that work or should i do something else? Also i would need to buy some extra 0 Gauge wire to do the Big 3.... Anything else??? Thanx in advance, Alex

and why is that? im looking at a 15" Q because of trunk space but why would the BL be the better choice most of the time...
