Posted November 27, 200717 yr i got a quick question. Can a 15'' fully loaded BTL handle 3,000 watts rms for a pretty long time?
November 27, 200717 yr Yes, if you properly set your gains, and you get the proper cooling options.No, if you totally FUBAR your gain settings and have a stock BTL.But either way, its your call if you feel comfortable doing it.
November 27, 200717 yr Tuning and the subsonic filter are key in most applications. We have people with more power, but know the limits and have things dialed in correctly. At the same time we hav epeople with 2000W tuned to 45 with their subsonic filters off or too low that kill subs mechanically when they try to play some ultra low bass tracks and the subs try to jump out of the baskets.Set up is key.I wish we had 20 more Nicks... he is small enough to send in the BTL crate (with a little food of course) so that he can tweak the knobs and dial things in. Then youd just send him back and we would shoot him out to the next customer Sorry Nick... one can dream
November 28, 200717 yr do all amps have a subsonic filter?Nope, but you can buy in-line filters like Harrison Labs FMODs if you need one and your amp doesn't have one.
November 28, 200717 yr Author what frequency should i get there is only a 20hz and 30hz.. or should i get a fully adjustable one?
November 28, 200717 yr An adjustable one probably would be better, since your box will probably vary, but I have no experience in these matters, so I'll leave it up to the vets.
