  7. What do you mean by short? If there was a short the fuse in the engine bay should blow.

    MTX Jackhammer 24" Square Sub

    I won't touch another MTX woofer. Their amps are fine though. And IIRC years ago they were dogging square sub woofers in an effort in advertising.

  12. Fi is not a dealer based company, strictly direct. Their sister company Ascendant Audio is the dealer based one. http://www.ascendantaudio.com/
  13. All the amps linked include shipping and the highest one is $350 The eduh is 295 + shipping. You'll pretty much end up paying the same amount as the eduh going with the Sundown and end up with a better amp and better customer service.

    FI Q or BL

    More then likely you want the BLs. You can't look at them because the are updating their site for the new 09 versions.

    Sealed or Ported

    Your going to be right at the minimum space requirements for a ported enclosure tuned to ~31-32Hz. Dimensions would help.
  16. Some amps won't let you run below rated, it will go into protection right away. I've ran an MTX 801d at 1ohm (stable at 2) but it would go into thermal protection in a short amount of time. IMO it isn't worth it sell it and buy a amp designed to run at the load your looking to run.

    Sealed or Ported

    How do you know what the displacement of the port is if you don't know how long it should be?

    12" Flatlyne Review

    Sorry I don't really believe in videos, they just are not an accurate representation of the equipment. That and I don't have a good camera for videos.

    12" Flatlyne Review

    Ordering process and packaging. I posted in a topic at SSA asking if they were available in D4 coils because they only listed D2 the places I looked. Nick told me they could do D4 and to email him if I was interested. So following various threads here and other places I decided to go with the Flatlynes because I like to be different and not to many people have them. I emailed Nick(Incriminator) on the 22nd of December and got a reply within a half an hour. I sent payment 10 minutes after I got a reply and an hour after that he emailed me and told me they were added to the list. After all the holidays he emailed me on the 5 of January and told me they were going out that day and I received them on the 7th of January. Upon receiving them I was impressed by the outside of the package, fragile tape and stickers letting the handlers know to be careful with the packages. I like the foam cushion protecting the top of the woofer and the woofer was in a plastic bag as well. The motor was sitting in a half box lined with foam to prevent it sliding around. Each woofer also came with a little care package consisting of a sticker, pamphlet showcasing their product line up and mission statement, a user manual for the woofer consisting of wiring diagrams, enclosure recommendations, and warranty info, and a disclaimer sheet explaining hearing loss and the air driven cooling used.

This driver is heavier then it looks, shipping weight is 30lbs and I believe that is all driver. I couldn't imagine the top assembly being more then 5lbs leaving about 25lbs for the motor. The surround on the sub feels to be really heavy duty just from the feel of it and I punched through some of the mounting holes which was a little resistive for a tiny screwdriver. The cone appears to be very rigid having a smooth feel to the back and a textured fiberglass feel on the front. The dust cap on the driver is very tasteful not flashy(which I like, not a flashy person at all). The dust cap is also very shallow not a big convex shape also referred to as boob cone. The drivers suspension is stiff only moving about a 1/4 inch when pressing firmly. The driver has stitched leads which is a nice touch and the coils all measured in spec of 2.8 per coil. The ADC is an interesting feature on their lines which raises the basket about 1/4 inch from the motor assembly. Playing the drivers free air you can really tell it works, just playing a 30Hz tone for a minute at ~75watts the motor seemed a few degrees cooler after playing. That means the coils should have stayed cooler then without it. And last the motor assembly, it is about 8 & 1/4 inch in diameter with a top plate of 1 & 1/4 inch tall, about 1 inch tall magnet, and a bottom plate that is about 3/4 of an inch. Almost forgot about the beautiful "black chrome" finish on the motor.
