I been trying to get rid of mine as well, definitely in the way.

voted, Im not a fan of a lot of upgrades but its not my board.

Exactly how I feel about my 15" Icon, one of the best sounding subs I heard and owned but it doesnt give me the output I desire. Cant wait to recone it to an 18" and use it as a home theatre sub

If so then I am better bridging the amp and not splitting RCA's. Didnt think of the voltage. hmmm maybe someone can answer that. I am running Rockford T2652s up front and would probably just add another set. I think by running splitters you will decrease the ohm load from 4 to 2ohms Do some research and you will find out splitters do not change the ohm load, only adding/deleting speakers can change ohm loads and wiring configurations. Please be advised with what your saying as other people read this thread for the same answers, we dont want any confusion or misinformation. Maybe he should be the one asking questions....LOL Here is my amp specs BTW. http://www.sonicelec...-PDX-4.150.html Naw i doubt it since he is the one who claims to hit a 150db with 2 Icon 12'' and a AQ2200d but couldnt provide evidence when i asked, not that guy. He should do more than ask questions, Im glad he is trying to help but you gotta know when you know something and when you dont. Read under the controls section here and it tells you no y-splitter is needed and one set of 2 channel rca's will be enough to run all 4 channels. You just have to put the signal setting on the right feature: http://www.crutchfie...tml#details-tab

You can adjust that with your head unit. You must not understand my question at all. I'll give someone else a shot at it. Thanks I understand you want all the signals to be the same.Do you want to use the second amp channels to run a sub?Do you have a sub amp? No you dont understand what he is asking and no he doesnt want to use the other 2 channels on his amp for subs. He wants to run two sets of components to his 4 channel alpine amplifiers, he wants to know can he use one set of 2 channel rca's with a y-splitter to turn the end of the rca's going into the amp to a 4 channel set. You can but Ive heard you loose some signal/output by using y-splitters so I would just keep the front and rear rca's plugged up unless your amp had a 2/3/4 channel switch. Front and rear will send the same signal

Nice

isnt relevant at all, would probably have similar issues as well but thanks for your input

Elite.1 and .4 look like some new amps i want to play with as well as the components.

Bracing trumps mutiple baffles anyday especially if braced properly. If it was an issue im sure Steve would of built it a different way, he hasnt half assed anything yet.

Somebody has been doing work I see, looks damn good Steve

2-15" Zcons and if Im correct a Crescendo BC3500D unless he upgraded to the BC5500D like he planned on doing.

Either way, your still resorting to a rudimentary method for comparison. Pretty sure that's all he's asking for, is a basic comparison, like, what to expect? Is it worth doing? Why does it seem you are posting only to be negative and try to make yourself seem more intelligent, where you are actually doing just the opposite...still curious how you think comparing output of two amps on same load at assumingly same voltage is apples to oranges.... Bro he does it all the time, post bullshit at first then when you call him on it he is the expert. This could of been answered 8 post ago if you would actually try and help. First post was clear as day in what he needed to know. Mjmarovi to answer your question it would be in some one else's setup, every setup acts different. Just becuase someone has great success with a SAZ-3500d vs an IA40.1 doesnt mean you will and vice versa. Even if the SAZ-3500d does better numbers spl wise you will never know which amp put out the most power at the lowest distortion percentage.

I was waiting on the update, cant wait to see how you compare/contrast them to your previous subs.

No issues so far, i know a few people on floridaspl who have one and love it. They have a cheaper active deck out as well, I just cant remember if it does thre way or not.

x2, those guts are purrrrrrty

Still using the DC 2k or more power, that tall surround is pure sex. I cant wait to see what Jacob got up his sleeve for the nightshades with the new baskets.

That sub is beast mode, i wanna try some zv.3s myself. Forward firing and sealed off i assume?

Never just want you to be funny for a change thats all. Enough of the clutter since this isnt my build log.

For your gold sticker. Sorry try again, next time have some humor involved with your stale popcorn.

I never bought into the hype

2 Nightshade v.3 12"s sound yummy, how will the ones for music application differ from the standard version?

Sounds like you got some fun ahead of you, cant wait to see what you come up with.

Nice whip, I always had a thing for town cars and Im jelly of your trunk volume.
