I was originally talking to Scott about a Q 18 in my h/t setup, but I have a chance to get a used SSD 15 instead. It needs reconed, so I was just wondering about the best coil for the recone, and a few questions. I was planning on asking for the copper coils with the recone, but I was just wondering if it would be best with my setup.

I was goin to use one of the following plate amps with it, so around 500rms at 4 ohms.

Bash 500

Dayton 500

At the moment I'm leaning more towards the Dayton, but I wasn't sure if it was worth the price difference.

Also could you recommend a good box size and tuning? Scott told me 20ft net @ 20hz for the Q, so I was thinking around 15ft net @ 20hz for the SSD, but wasn't sure if it would be optimal. Thanks a lot for all the help, I'm sort of a h/t noob so if there's anything I left out please let me know.

Thanks!

Okay, so copper coil and dayton amp.

Only question is, for the h/t setup would the 12-16sq inches of port per foot still apply? Thanks.

I would figure the same rules would apply, if u used the SSD instead of the Q.

I'd still do 20cuft tuned to 20hz.

But I don't you need 12-16sqinches, cause it would be this giant long port.

Now, I don't know exactly how much you need. But I doubt its really gonna effect the performance. Since, you really don't need it to be "that" loud.

the box really is recommended to be around 20cubes! Jesus!

For port- you can use 2 6" inner diameter ports 21.6" long per port.

Or, you can use 56.5sq in of port.
