Good or bad?
just because people on a website say they may not/dont sound good doesnt mean you will think the same as them. you may love them but i would def. build/get a box built to their specs. or you could try and sell them as a package deal for a couple hundred and get a sub you would feel more confident in.

Looking for a larger sub to replace my two 10's
i say build a ported box for the subs you have now and then see if you want anymore after that. could save you money, and if you still want more it will give you more time to save for a new sub(s)

wiring subs to amp
it doesnt matter, both + and both - meet inside anyways so there is really just 1+ and 1-. they put 2 there in case you have two subs, resulting in split power between the two if you use both. or other various wiring configs.

Daily driving sub stage
remember, with the right electrical the 3kD can possibly do more than "just" 3k watts, so either way you will be happy with the xcons

Daily driving sub stage
just because you dont meet the exact rms rating, doesnt mean the subs aren't going to be moving a ton of air. you will do fine with a pair on a 3kD.

Need to talk to Scott
be patient. they have a big ass business to run. they cant answer every email they get every day. they have a set time each morning/mid afternoon to do it. just wait before you e-mail everyone on the team. you WILL get a reply. its worth the wait. and the more patient you are, the easier it is on them. the less emailing they have to do=more time to build your custom sub

Btl 18 power handling..
first thing you need to do is install a voltmeter and see what your voltage is at to see if you really NEED the alt. maybe just another battery will do, if you're sticking around 2k (which i recommend)

Battery terminals?
Yeah I've also come to the conclusion that they suck. So what don't you guys like about them? Compression fitting? Or don't they tighten enough around the post? They dont tighten up on the post and if you try to give it half turn more it strips. X2 i stripped both of mine, have diff. screws in there now and they seem to be fine. but they still dont get eight enough it seems... i definitely wont buy them again.

Soldering Connectors
the way ive done it, and have seen it done is put the connector on the wire, crimp it enough to hold it in place while you work. then put in on something to hold the wire still (you will need both hands) and start heating up the connector and inside wire-best to make it all one temp. after a bit start putting the solder a little above the wire on the connector, so it *drains* down in between the wire strands and forms it all into one big ol' chunk of metal like that guy, but he didnt heat it up beforehand so it all pooled on top, it looks like
