  1. unfortunately db-r has no 125.2's in stock right now =[ i was thinking about buying one as well due to me needing one and the outstanding customer service Chris gives. They do however have 100.4's in stock, but they are more expensive than the 125.2's that you can get from woofersect
  2. check out www.madisound.com here's one Eton 4-200/A8 Symphony, 4" Mid/Bass with Aluminum Former from Madisound the mid-bass ones aren't their own section so you gotta search a little bit to find them. Don't expect a whole lot of midbass from a 4" though...
  3. Correction on my last post, i don't know where to put the LOW PASS. not the high pass. My mistake. So can someone help me on what to do with the LOW pass? thanks
  4. According to the How To section here, you aren't supposed to leave the speakers hooked up while measuring the voltage
  5. In reference to Phi, i thought using bass boost increased the chance of sending a clipped signal? i know that a filter won't send a clipped signal if i made it seem that i thought that. CrazyKenKid: Your information on the Gain remote was extremely helpful. I was wondering if one canceled them out or how they worked together but now I know! But I don't seem to exactly follow the info on the High Pass. I got that it can hurt the sub and not to put it out of manufacture specs but that's about it. ha. Sorry, i bet what you said probably makes sense to some people but i just can't grasp it. Maybe if i get more detailed, you can help me better. I have a BTL in a 32hz box built by yours truly. I have absolutely NO CLUE where to set the high pass. OH, the box is about 7.3 cubes if that helps. as to others, I know how to set subsonic filter. I know how to set gain with a multimeter (wish i had an oscope ) and now thanks to CrazyKenKid and Phi, my remote question is solved!
  6. I know WHAT a lowpass filter is. I said i didn't know where to set it. My question was if i set the lowpass too high, can that harm my sub? And i already knew about the SSF but thanks anyways!! And i just wasn't sure whether the remote was for Gain or Bass Boost. I know some kicker amps have a remote which is for bass boost and i know most other amps are for gain. I just wanted to make sure i had it right. I apologize for wanting to make sure i had something right before i send a clipped signal to my BTL. It's just i've had so many issues and so much bad luck with my set-up. 1/2 my fault, 1/2 bad karma i guess. Just now-adays i take things 1 step at a time and double check everything.
  7. Two quick questions that are really easy but i can't seem to find. Is the remote that comes with a SAZ-3000d for bass-boost or gain? I think it's for gain but i want to be sure before anything bad happens. Also, i have read what to set the Subsonic filter too, but what about the Low pass? Is it just a "whatever sounds better to you" thing? Or will setting it too high hurt my Sub? thanks!
  8. Well is it a daily set-up or a comp set up?
  9. sweet!! looks like an awesome ride! i would like to do one of those... all the trails near me are wooded and forest areas so it would be nice to switch it up. Looks like you ride suzuki eh? and is that a KTM i saw in the beginning?
  10. I'd just like to say i love your amp rack install and how it looks inside your car! I think it's badass. I'm interested to know about the fans as well. I was going to install some myself but making them fit and look nice adds a certain level of complication. Good luck on your heat issues! Sweet install
  11. Frostedflakejake replied to 85mag's topic in General Fi
    How do you know the sub isn't clipping?
  12. That's a pretty badass box... you make that yourself?
  13. Cool car =] i got the same in a 2004 only with different wheels. Good luck on the... transfer? ha
  14. Hate the red and black bowtie on the back. i think it's cool, but i sure as hell wouldn't even pay 1/8 of what he did for it.
  15. well what do you want out of your setup? what are you max dimensions to work with? are they championship series or championship pro series?
  16. Ha yeah i feel you on the best buy. but not only did they have my 9886 but they were willing to meet internet pricing! i was rather impressed. And hey, if you think you're in love with the thing and you read alot of credible reviews, then personally i would buy it. But personally, i would probably regret it. ha. It's just like me and my BTL. i bought it solely due to youtube videos and some reviews i've seen on here. I have no idea what the thing is going to sound like and i'm afraid i won't like it! I would have felt much more comfortable checking one out first! So if you can, i would advise you to do the same!
  17. ha that's what i was thinking Shizzz, i was afraid he might have been a serious competitor and then i would look like a fool.
  18. I agree. I think it's more beneficial to buy a really good set for the front and keep the back stock in comparison to have an okay set in the front and an okay set in the back. Another set in the back won't change the sound for you as much as you would probably like. And what tweeters are you running that sound busted? are they in the front with the type s or in the back?
  19. i would love to know how he's powering all those. i had two of them as my first install. oh i remember the ol' days
  20. I would definitely try to check the head unit out physically in person. it really helped me choose which head unit to get for myself. Personally i think it's worth a drive to a local shop or best buy! Unfortunately i have no experience with that company so i can't help you out in that manner =[ Best of luck!
  21. If you have that second one and a D2 FiQ then you are wired at 4ohms! so about 850 or 900 watts which is good! Now, what head unit do you have? and what is your gain set to on the amp?
  22. Subwoofer Wiring Diagrams, One 2 ohm Dual Voice Coil (DVC) Speaker which one is your setup? It kind of sounds like you're at 1ohm but i can't tell for sure
  23. WOAH. i couldn't be more confused. ha, is it a dual 2 or a dual 1? i would love to help you! if you could click on this link and look at the two pictures and tell me which one you have i would be able to tell you what resistance you're at. Subwoofer Wiring Diagrams, One 2 ohm Dual Voice Coil (DVC) Speaker and remember i, and everyone else, needs to know if its a D2 or a D1 sub. Just becasue the pictures say its at a certain resistance doesn't necessarily mean that that is the case for you because those diagrams are for a D2 sub only. What head-unit do you have?
  24. I shipped it out using the same foam and stuff that i got it in. Hopefully it's sufficient! The only thing is the box is getting rather worn, so i used quite a bit of tape. But all should be well! Thanks!
  25. Yup! Chris and db-r are some great guys that are able to put up with ignorant and frustrated people (like me). Definitely a good company to do business with! And i would love to buy a sax125.2 off of them! Hopefully they will still be around at db-r when i get the cash! for chris helping me out!
