    Fi vs RE

    I'll go with the 06 XXX cause I never can afford them. But 2 Q should be a good contender.

    New Setup

    Just wondering...if changing the VC confic (let say D2 to D1) do we change the coil or the motor? Isnt a standard recone will do it? Or its not even worth doing it compared to buying another one.

    Do the BLs poend the lows

    if you have the power, I would say 2 12 BTL wfully loaded and see it gets low. why didnt consider the Q?

    Totally downplayed FI

    My so called reputable shop only recommend MTX because he's carrying those brands. When I told them I heard the Brahma, he said ohh.. that sub is crap. Wait until you hear my MTX8500 in SQ setup. I can waith to rebuilt my box so I can show him my so called unknown Q with his MTX.

    Q18 or the BL18 with options. Both can do bassrace and daily. but if you want to add another amp then 2 BL 18 wil do. Why dont you sell your amp to me and get the BTL 18 with the SAZ3000. single sub and amp will surprise ppl especially when others with multiple subs and amps.

    Q dustcap hot....

    This happens to me several times (actually everytime I turn up the volume). Just playing like 10-15 mins and I could smell the VC. When I touch its hot (not to the point where you can cook eggs with it) but just wondering whether I am killing the Q slowly if not quickly. the amp also runs hot but amps are made that way (thats why they have heatsink). Is my sub ok with it or is it with the low voltage and high current thinggy... thanks Wynold

    Is this type of setup possible?

    Can the Q runs at IB setup in the first place? If yes than how much power will it be for IB setup?

    Q dustcap hot....

    No clipping... already scope it. No distorsion either. So its either: 1. overpowering (which I doubt I would because of my puny aleternator) or 2. the amp trying to get as much current at low voltage. If its no.2, any idea on how to get it fix? Alternator upgrade?

    BL or Q?

    BL is actually not a poor mans BTL. The BL was for daily street bass. Not many will go driving around daily with more than 2000w+ on their sub.

    Q dustcap hot....

    Havent measured it yet but last time when i'm using 2 CVR with 800w voltage floats around 13.6v. But now I'm sure it drops lower. I dont have any tool to measure how much watts actually produced. My batteries is rated at 70amp. So I can assume I overpowering them?
  16. Btw Meade maybe after you done playing with the BTL, can you put one Jackhammer in there and just to know that its crap anyway.

    Congrats to tejcurrent...

    did I miss something???
  18. That little kid sure can do wiring installation. I bet he's better than me. The amp look sick though.

    Q dustcap hot....

    my amp is this http://ampguts.realmofexcursion.com/Blaupu...rning_Desire_2/ Since this amp is a bit overrated (rated at higher voltage) combined with my stock alternator, I wont see the power as stated. Sub does hit hard, but not distorted. Before this I own 2 12 CVR and the sub reach xmech so I had to turn the volume down... if that related though. With my current alternator 60 amps (I know, going for upgrade) I dont think I would see 1000w let alone 2000w. Sub is wired in parallel into 1 ohm load.

    Voice coil

    didnt a price of a recone is almost similar to the Titanic MKIII???? Buy a new one dude.

    Bl vs. Alpine X

    Type X is sexy but the BL has more muscle. So I vote for the BL by just looking at it. But if you really want my opinion I would say the Q will win because I had one.

    Did i break my sub

    Dont know about home setup but last time I played hard with my Q15 with 50 cent candy shop and half way through the song, suddently everything went quiet. So I panicked, turned off everything and parked my car. Left the car for a while and turn up everthing is ok. Took the sub out and everything is fine. Seems that my voltage it too low and everyhing been but off of power. Dunno if its related but just feel like telling someone LOL.

    Q15 Enclosure Help

    How about this Outside dimension 33 wide 17 tall 20 deep with port dimension at 30hz 3.5 wide 15.5 tall 32.75 long Does it sounds right?

    Q15 Enclosure Help

    thanks man Actually I used these programs http://www.subwoofertools.com/forum/ported-box.asp which I found it not flexible enough. If you try to key in 34 X 18 X 22.75 @ 30hz you will have crazy port dimension. Just wondering what program do you use there. I have tried tons of programs but all of them gives me different result. thanks Wynold

    Fi reviews

    I recalled back in this forum someone said the Q was reviewed by CA&E. Anyone knows about the score or even better a copy of it. Also with the review of the mags. thanks Wynold
