  1. Read my first post in this thread. haha it is vice versa.. ok thanks
  2. yea so i;m getting mixed feelings on putting the big boy in.. sooo hopefully i will find time tomorrow to take my btl out and wire it in series so i dont have to worry about frying the amp then when i get a day off where its nice too.. i'm gunna put in the big amp and leave it at 4ohms... but one thing: doesn't running 4ohms make more of a strain or your electrical.. or is it vice versa? idk
  3. haha good lookin out definately don't want to abuse that amp like i do my 250
  4. ok that would work thanks so i will be getting a 4ohm load, correct? or........ instead of ripping my btl out of the box what's your outlook on my other situation? (hooking up 2000) i just have to be very careful with the gain with my 2000.. my car should hold up for the time being? until i can purchase batteries i have stock alt., ac delco battery- nothing special, and big 3 in 1/0
  5. yes. the amp's been running hot lately. and before when it was ran above 1.5 ohms it would stay ice cold. so what's my bext bet? back down the gain? dont go past a volume of 19? or any other suggestions? just effin hook up my SAZ-2000 which is 1ohm stable? (the only downer to that is i don;t think my electrical is ready for it.. so idk thanks
  6. outside: 17 x 40 x 16 port: 13.5 x 3.5 x 5.5 or 4.5 the port numbers are rough since i'm sort estimating.. give or take on those number.. that's why i keep saying around but also no bracing and 1" mdf was used
  7. i see what you're talking about. why would the amp shut off output?
  8. do u think that this event is going to have a bigger turnout than the one in boston like two weeks back?
  9. yea the light only comes on when it makes that sound its a bitch because that only subsonic filter setting is for 30hz.. it's either no subsonic - or subsonic on 30 so any easy solutions?
  10. ok just did.. but i had to do it at 20 since it wasn't really doing it at 19 anymore (just sanded my ground in between time.. idk if that would do anything) but it was going it again at 20 and i'm pretty damn sure it wasn't moving 3" peak to peak.. i've seen videos of btl's flexing a lot and it didn't really look like that so now what? could it be that the subsonic being set at 30hz is preventing the amp to play certain notes causing it to make that damn popping sound? thanks
  11. ok the box is like 3.9 cubes and is tuned to around 33hz and the subsonic is set at 30hz because 30 is the only thing I can put it at when the subsonic is on I played the song at 18 and it didn't do it, so I moved up to 19 and it started to do it a little bit.. so I didn't bother going any higher so it's bottoming out right? and what did u mean by 50/50? hope I didn't misunderstand something ha so what's my best bet? hook up my saz 2000 and set th subsonic to 33hz? or is there another solution? and did I just do damage to my woofer? thanks! you're a huge help!
  12. need a better electrical to support my SAZ-2000D sitting on my bedroom floor.
  13. Oh yeah and volume was at 22 which is the highest i would play it at and not be worried.
  14. Ok well here's the scenario: I am running a 15" BTL off of a JL Audio 250/1 (not the v2 one). On the amp along with the power light and protection mode light it has a light that is labeled "low Ohm" with the little ohm symbol. This amp's lowest rating is 1.5 ohm. My woofer is wired down to 1 ohm. But i figured it wasn't a big problem. OK so here's the problem - just now I noticed that on a certain note of a song (Lil Jon-Throw It Up) the light labeled low ohm blinks. Then i noticed sort of a popping sound coming from the box. So i went around to the back and popped the trunk. Then i could really hear the popping sound. I believe the sound it coming from the sub itself and not the port. But i could be wrong. I could never hear the sound before in the driver's seat so i don't know how long it's been there. I have no idea why or what's causing this. Can any one explain to me what's the problem? Am i harming my woofer? Any trouble shooting? Thanks guys. If any more info is needed please let me know. I'm trying to figure this out before the morning when i go to work so please help me out.
  15. yea that's the second step if sanding my amp ground doesn't work.. i really hope i don;t have to do that, taking my deck out is annoying
  16. haha there u go.. running mine off around 300 watts of JL power and im amazed... and its soon to be 2000 watts of sundown power
  17. umm everything is the same besides the sub. and another thing different is that i tapped into the remote wire and attached the remote wire for my voltmeter to it.. other than that.. same same
  18. definately gunna get my ass out there after work
  19. never got around to sanding it because i thought it stopped.. but then i heard it again last night.. so i'm definately gunna try it out asap
  20. nah, just getting the settings straight
  21. thanks i'm still a little skeptical too.. i was going to put it in today but couldn't man up and just do it lol.. the weather sucked anyways and i got some other stuff done
  22. its called 'houston oiler' but nope.. 250/1 still so imagine what the saz-2000d is gunna do to it.. watch the flex in the other vids.. it doesnt all show though
  23. here's some more.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFkIbw_L3s8
