    Difference between 15" and 12" sub

    Yes, if your ssf isn't set correctly and you have the volume turned up too high, it will probably kill the sub.

    Difference between 15" and 12" sub

    It can play as low as you want it to, but a subsonic filter will help control your sub below box tuning.

    FI BTL specs clarification

    First of all, the kicker mono amps are not 1 ohm stable, which is why they rate their amps at 2 ohms. Second, if you did have 2 subs running off one amp, the power produced from that amp would be evenly distributed to each woofer. So in this case each btl would see approximately 1200 watts at 2 ohms (not taking into account impedance rise and other factors). If i were you, i wouldn't jump into this big of a system right away, maybe start smaller and learn more about what kind of things go into a system like this. Just my opinion though, not saying that it's law or anything.

    im new to car audio and need some help

    ahaha, oh man. probably should've done just A TINY BIT of research.
  5. It's probably not good to try and cram a btl in 1.75 cu ft. The btl is not the sub to use in this application since you can only use a ported box for them, and since you don't have the room you might have to downgrade and do a sealed 12 or a ported 10. And the tuning on the box is definitely on the low side at 26 hz, as fi reccommends 32 or 33 hz optimum.

    Sealing enclosure

    Any specific brand? I heard there are some types that give a certain vapor that can damage metals. Is that correct?
