Posted February 10, 201015 yr Im looking to buy a FI 15". The sub will be in a jeep. Which application would be the best? I was thinking about the BTL. For the most SPL which options should I add? Also what type of amp should I be looking at? Im not trying to spend a ton on an amp. I found a nice Planet Audio thats 3000@1ohm. Me and a buddy will build the enclosure. Let me know!Also...is the BTL alotttt louder than the BL?

February 10, 201015 yr Author read here --> Attention NOOBS!!!! - SSA Car Audio Forumthen try and post againSorry buddy here you go...Im new to fi so im not so sure how much louder the BL is than the BTL....this will be in my daily so i just want something nice and loud. Im use to always buying JL products but im not putting jl in my daily. Im looking to spend no more than 700 for the sub and amp, i already have 1/0 wire in the explorer. My friend has a 12" RE SE in his jeep with a zapco amp im not sure which model and that bumps loud as hell. Im pretty much just trying to be louder than him. THe music i usually play is rap and old reggae with lots of low bass. So all in all im just trying to be a good bit louder than my buddy with the 12" RE SE's. I know i sound like a noob but i just want to buy the right thing for the right price. thanks in advance =)its a ford explorer 07 and i also have all hertz components powered by zapco 360.4 Edited February 10, 201015 yr by 4R!INGS
February 10, 201015 yr Author If you want very loud get the BL or BTL and port it.any suggestions on how much watts i should give it? if i get it ill wanna get the dual 2 ohm.
February 10, 201015 yr If you want very loud get the BL or BTL and port it.any suggestions on how much watts i should give it? if i get it ill wanna get the dual 2 ohm.There is no minimum amount of power to give drivers, it's personal opinion. Why D2 only?
February 10, 201015 yr just noticed your price range, i would recommend going with a BL in a proper sized enclosure built to Fi's specs-the reason why i am suggesting a BL is because the electrical upgrades for a BTL would be out of your price range

February 10, 201015 yr Never mind on the D2 question then, unless you want to buy a D1 and run the amp at 2 ohms to increase it's lifetime.

February 10, 201015 yr i would say btl cause it is louder of the same power and gives room for expansion. to answer about the power the bl 1000 with all options around 1500. the btl 2000 stock

February 10, 201015 yr Author no i havent purchased any amp yet. that planet audio amp would still be plenty at 2 ohms correct?
February 10, 201015 yr I think it would be more than enough for you if you do the installation correctly.
