Right on, got it now. Thanks

Really don't feel like paying 20 bucks for a foot at local audio store and not really into buying scosche wire, that industrial stuff is good, I already have a 3 ft strand I probably will use as ground, just need some 10 ft strand probably to split up to go to the alt exc. Also need some connectors, I might think about getting that 2 gauge off that site, thanks man.

How about just some insight and responses? Thx.

They are out of 1/0 and 2/0. I would need something to hold 200A+, right

Thanks, so proceed with some monster kable 0 G? What are those female connectors that you can put a male connector on the cable and connedt them without using the actual wire into a female connect? Sorry don't really know how to explain it, but where could I get some of thosee what is a good site to buy 0 G off of as well as parts/ terminals, fuses?

Would like to buy a Q motor and a 15" basket so I could throw the extra soft parts I have in it. I am using Fi soft parts for the recone. I have an extra Q Fc D1 I would like to build this sub for myself and give my pre-09 to my buddy for xmas. What would the pricing and shipping look like for this motor, basket, and some glue? =/

I could cook breakfast on my 801s amps after lots of bumping on a summer day

Why 18s? I'm sure 15s would suit your desired frequency ranges just fine..

I go as far back as 801s. I had two of them each powering type R 15s

Hifonics goliath 3000xd and 5000s too I think are 1/2 ohm stable but you'd need 4 batteries to power one.

It seems to be working fine in my old Q. And what is "clicking old Q recone". There isn't such an option, unless its just the bp?

I've come across flawless used equip. But I wouldn't purchse unless I knew somone didn't abuse/make mistakes with hookups. Can't do that too often these days, people are stupid.

Mmats! Just say it!

My old school mmats d300hc has great sq, never gets warm and I'm running it daily @ 1 ohm below its reccomended impedance . What do sundown amps have in competition with this amp as far as performance/efficiency?

Produce I would imagine..draw=?

How would you figure this out? Ac/dc / ac/dc? Running a mmats D300hc in a 2 cu. Sealed enclosure. Not supposed to run the mmats below 1 for daily driving, so want to know how I'm doing so, is this the cheater amp its made to be? Drawing lots of current lol, voltage drop. Don't want to dmg the amp, rewiring it to 4 and making a larger ported I guess.

Thanks, that explains a lot. I'm worried that I'm damaging my amp bc its unmodded, but in the same aspect, should still have the safety feature..amps draw 1400 + @ 2 ohm.

Mmats D300hc

If you go with a sealed enclosure give them more power =)

Agreed. I say get dual 2s and run them bridged @ 2 ohm. Get a mmats d300hc and you won't need another battery for the 1400W it throws=)

If you have that much power I would keep it smaller, or just use the cut sheets on the tech forum section. My Q shined in a smaller sealed enclosure than the box I made via the cut sheets on the forum.

It will work. The new recones are better with the way the tinsel leads are fed in between the spiders. I think they give you the option of flatwound or copper with the Qs

Make sure you fuse front and back battery. A and L fuse 160 A+ in front and distrib block or same fusing in rear

Go to ficaraudio.com click on tech and look at the info for the Q. Cooling options give you more power handling. I would recommend them esp. In a sealed enclosure. I think the air in there gets warm. They have cut sheets for a sealed enclosure in the tech section of this forum.

Hey guys, I have a recone for a Q I wanted to see if I could just get a Q motor and a 15" basket..how much would that run me...not worried about how machining time..or..do you have any compatible motors tc, re, or anything that would have enough depth for this coil?
