    Help picking out a system

    i hear ya, i wasnt looking for a competition setup, just something that makes the music more enjoyable, i listen to the same type of music but mostly rap/hip-hop I did a lot of research and i came up with the BL instead of the Q... It sounds amazing and will be louder than the Q by a bit. I got 1 15" and it does the job. When i give a demo, let me tell you they are all in shock. I would say get a 12" or 15" BL with a box tuned to about 32-35 hz. As for AMPS: I would recommend the aq1200d, as thats what i have and have no problems with it at all. Comes with a bass knob controllin the gains as well as clippin indicator which has not gone of yet Im sure you will get plenty of opinions like audiopipe, sundown and what not, they all make great products i guess it just comes down to the power and money. BL with options can take about 1000 - 15000 RMS if done properly HEADUNIT: I love my alpine CDA-105. Its got plenty of controls and like i said my amp has not clipped even on good volume. once again you will get many different opinions. Go with Fi, and you will not be throwin the money out the window

    im happy with how it sounds just want to make it more sturdy. And wondering if it would change the sound. its a 15 for the record. I think i might need to make a new one but just had unexpected payments for the car

    hey guys, hope you all had a good weekend ! right now my BL is facing the rear and box is only out of .5 mdf because its all i had at the moment, but now im planing on puttin another layer on the sides,front and and top. Will that help with deepness and loudness? I know it stops the box from flexing a bit but dont know what that does for sound. as for the box facing rear, im planing on turning it around and hopefully sealing it off by putting two cut outs on the sides (one on each) going straight across. To fill in the gaps, is gorilla tape good ?

    im also gonna try it facing inwards aswell as the port, the port size is much larger than my current box so im hoping for lots of air !

    yeah i understand the power, i dont blast it much and i understand it lowers the power handling. Its a loaded BL and only a aq1200d on it for the time being. In regards to the subsonic filter, im going to have it on 30hz to be safe, i know perfect is 2-3 under the hz of the box but i wanna be extra careful since its my baby lol

    it should get a bit louder, i was just making sure it could handle 1500 or a bit more rms it seems like it wants more !

    New Box Help

    hey guys, i currently got a Fi 15" BL with an aq1200d, in a 3.3 cubic foot box tuned to 32 hz, it is a crappy box made out of 0.50 mdf because i just wanted the system in lol. I know this sub can get much much louder. How does a box just under 4 cubes (3.78) tuned to 35hz sound to you guys ? also with gains down could this sub eventually maintain an aq2200d ? I would have gains set so its pushing about 1500rms thnx guys !!
