The Dalton

While driving my amp turned off and inspecting it I found that all four fuses on the amp were blown. What all could have possibly caused this?

my remote wire was a little loose but I don't think that it draws enough to cause all four to blow.. I was cranking it up pretty hard so I don't know.. the fuse from the battery didn't blow. I replaced them for now but I still have no idea what caused it. Thanks for the reply though

Thanks a lot for the response... I'll just deal with the silicone until they shred apart lol.

Screwdriver slipped and I poked a medium sized hole in the rubber surrond. I have it plugged up with silicone right now, but I was wondering how much it would cost to fix if I shipped it back to you guys. It's a 12" SSD. Thanks.

ooh ok.. sounds like it'd be pretty expensive then. I thought they could just replace the foam surrounding and the cone without messing with anything else.

My zip code is 29150. The only option they might have is the copper coils. I don't think I did anything else. Yeah if it isn't horribly expensive I'll get you guys to fix them. I do like my Fi subs to look pretty, lol.

I bought 2 12" SSD 2 ohm DVC subwoofers about 4 months months ago. I finally finished the fiberglass box three days ago. Anyways, I'm using the Sundown Audio Mono 1500W rms amp, and as my cousin and I were looking over it we realized that there was no possible way to get two 2 Ohm DVC subs down to one ohm with that set up. We'd have to do 2ohms which would only be giving me half the power from that amp. My question is, what can I do about it? I emailed [email protected] 2 days ago and I haven't gotten a response so I was hoping the forums would be a little faster. Is there any way that I could ship the subwoofers back to you guys and get the dual voice coils changed to 1 ohm? And if so how much would that cost and all that? Thanks for any help -edit- Also, the subs have never been hooked up, if that means anything.

at 2ohms each sub would only get half the watts than they would at 1 ohm, Just wanted to get all of what I paid for from the amp

It would definitely be nicer to have the .5 ohms, the electrical upgrades would cost around $250 at least for my car though. I might just do that, I'll have to see how much it would cost to get or even if it's possible for them to switch out the voice coils.

Wouldn't that put the amp in protect mode or just blow it up?

Yea I emailed you guys, thanks for the quick reply. That is the set up I'm going with, as soon as I transfer money to the checking account in about 10 mins I'm ordering both.

Hey everyone, I'm new to the forums here; first post. Let's see, I have a 1986 Camaro Iroc. I'm building a box to fit in the well of the hatch(if anyone is familiar with these cars). I do not think I have room for a ported box, the design for the box yields a little over two cubic feet. So basically I just need help on what subs to buy. I've heard, and it seems like, that Fi is a quality brand so I'm pretty sure I want to go with them. Anyway, I'm looking between two SSD12s or one Q15. I have had two DB Crossfire 10s before and one 15" solobaric Kicker L5 in my car before. When I bought this car I had to get rid of the Kicker in order to be able to store the t tops. The Kicker 15" didn't hit notes above 60hz at all really, so I'm not sure if I should get another 15(Q15).. do they do well at higher notes? I'm looking for low end bass but it was kinda embarrassing to hear the speaker just hum barely at 65 hz. Anyways though. My real question is is would the two 12s be better than one Q12 OR Q15? I've always liked 2 subs better but I don't know the real difference. I have slightly more knowledge than an amateur I'd say so yea I don't know too much about all of this stuff. With the Q15 I was planning on getting the Rockford Fosgate T10001BD but I'd probably have to get a bigger one.. like 1500 rms for two 12s right? All opinions and advice I'd appreciate, thanks.

Is that with or without any of the options.. I'm just asking if I would need any of the options if I only got a 1500 rms amp. Also, where would I buy a sundown 1500d... I've heard them mentioned before but a google search doesn't really show any official web page or anything.

Ok, what about all the options on the ssd? What are they? I know what the BP power is but I don't know if I should get it.. I'd have to buy a 2000 watt amp with that right?... with the BP option each of them would be around 1000 rms or so?

Thanks for all the quick replies. The 2 12s sound good from you guys' advice. Just to make sure though, 2 of those would sound better than 1 12" btl.. cause it seems to me that I could get 1 btl with a ported box(seems like everyone likes ported better) and it alone would have 400 or so more watts rms than the 2 12s for less money. Sorry about all the questions, as you can see I've got some stuff to learn.

Well the box is going to be funky shaped.. on the parts you can't see anyway. Have you ever seen those boxes that just look flush with the well or w/e.. That's what I'm doing. Something like this That's about 2 cubic feet.... I have enough room for 2 12s, 1 15 or maybe even one ported 12, like the btl I'm just trying to see what would be the best out of those.
