  1. Yes rears arent needed anyway, sell rears and put funds toward amp for comps. Hopefully removing the rears solves your issue.
  2. The infintiy speakers are 2 ohms and even they say when wired into factory wiring they are a true 4 ohm load. Most head units i know only do 4 ohms per channel. Did you just install speakers, head unit or both?
  3. Post seems confusing, went from four 18"s to a 12" to a 24 ". What are you exactly needing your front stage to blend with? Ideally a pair of under dash horns and large midbass driver usually would work with multiple subs or high powered sub setups.
  4. Running at .05 ohms is the dumbest thing you could suggest someone to do. Im hoping you meant .5 ohms Yes...I did Good catch..No biggie, just dont want anybody reading this and getting any ideas for more power.

  6. This can be answered with a quick google search. Why not just ask this in your can you model my subwoofer thread instead of making a new one? Simple answer yes.
  7. If it's for a daily setup, running at .5ohms will do more harm then good even with a good electrical.
  8. What I posted came right off the SQ website. I didn't say it was right or wrong.Cool story bro, i didnt quote you man so no need to seek my approval.
  9. Like stated before subs dont need a break in. Taking it easy on a subwoofer will only further delay the soft parts loosening up.
  10. Glad to have you Jesse.
  11. Yes recone them to dual 1s, otherwise naw man. Check this page out for future reference: http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp?Q=2&I=22#results
  12. Its simple really, what you added changed how things sounds. So troubleshoot that. I would suspect the amp, 60 bucks for something used like that could end up being too good to be true. Hopefully it isnt, if its the amp then you wont know since you don't have anything to test it against. Thats why i recommend taking it back to the shop regardless how long you are gonna have the car for.
  13. Some people are helping and others just confusing the matter. OP I hope its something simple and you get it situated. Who installed it for you? Your best bet might be to take it to Columbus Audo where you bought it and have them troubleshoot it.
  14. Just run the speakers bridged since the amp does 150w x 2 @ 4ohms bridged, a little headroom and no channels unoccupied. Win-Win What speakers do you have?
  15. Do you mean one speakers bridged to two channels each or 4 ohms or one channel per speaker at 4 ohms leaving two channels unoccupied?
  16. Size does not make a woofer SQ or SPL.

    Wow bro, how do we know whats best if we dont even know the subs? Quite simple actually, add up all three subs rms totals. Find out what ohm you are running and see what amp fits the bill.
  18. http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/topic/63299-enclosure-pricing-for-2015/#entry1096452 I would try Trevor as he will save you some cash and has extensive testing with the 10" Icon, his enclosures look amazing. Cant wait to try one myself.
  19. Yep 1-1.5 ft^3 @ 29-34hz, subs displacement is 0.12 ft^3.
  20. "We have also upgraded the Q1-2200D.1 to the new version the Q1-220D.2" Should say, Q1-2200D.2 at the end of sentence. I noticed it's wrong on the website as well, just a heads up fellas.
  21. Do your seats fold down at all or is there a ski-pass section/pull out arm rest for the back seats that leads into the trunk from the cabin? Yes a 4th order bandpass can be an option in a trunk car but i would usually only do one on high powered setups with multiple subs or box taking up the whole trunk not allowing adequate air flow. Another possible reason for a bandpass would be if your cars' gas tank was behind the seats. With you having a single q I would just recommend building a ported box to manufacturers specs and see how it treats you. If you build the box shouldn't cost more than 50 bucks. Would be the cheapest option. If really wanting to gain output from the trunk, remove rear speakers from back and leave open. You could also try firing the port and sub forward, sealing the trunk from the cabin. If a 4th order bandpass is your only solution right now then do like 95honda said and do your homework. Dont pick just random ratios, try to understand what you are doing. Just my .02 and good luck
  22. So when will this useless thread come to an end, 5 pages deep with no means of coming to a conclusion. People trying to explain things to someone who doesnt care to get it or just cant get it. This is what happens when you feed the trolls, they keep coming back for more.
  23. This, Autozone rcs's worked wonders for me in the past as well.
