    Jl Audio W6's

    Contact JL Audio and see how much they'd recone them for. Then figure out how much they sell for when not broken. Subtract the two and you have your answer.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Man why am I so HUNGRY? I came home to take a nap (got off work early, at about 3:30, wahoo) then got stuck on browsing the net and reading all the stuff on here. Now it's 6:30 and too late for a nap.

    NOOOOO!!!!!!!!! You should hold onto it until I buy a house in about 2-3 years, because I'd buy it off you then. haha.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    I had a girl's parents do that to me, I think I was 17 and she was 15. I didn't talk to her much after that but rumor was that she got an STD from a dude at a lake party like two months later and got into drinking and drugs. Great call, parents. I was one of the most responsible teenage boys you'd ever meet. I hear she's married now and doing better, so that's good. But I can't say I totally blame them. I'm sure I'll be overprotective with any daughter I'd have, too.

    Quad Stacked Magnet

    But they also made a dual basket sub as well, so that should show what influences their designs sometimes. Even triple basket subs One thing a double basket sub could be useful is to prevent spider deflection by having 2 spiders spaced far apart. oops you're right, it was triple basket, not double. If you're going to overdo something, I guess overdo it by a lot!

    My name should help you figure out where I live
  10. no its actually rated at 1500w. fi underrates it on the site. so im actually putting an extra 300 on it. the bl is in between the q and the btl (RMS ~1500) If they publish the numbers on their site, don't you think it's what FI wants it rated as? Where did you get this "actually rated at 1500 watts?"

    Fusing your subs?

    It's a marketing gimmick basically. There's no guarantee that the fuse will blow before the sub does anyways. Plus you can still blow the sub mechanically, the fuse has no bearing on that.

    2 cubes or 2.5...any different?

    That seems illogical since larger enclosures have higher efficiency. Smaller boxes have a larger peak which may make them SEEM SPL oriented.
  15. I'd buy the 1200 and save the money. Plus less chance for problems.

    Confused.

    How are we supposed to help you if you don't tell us what sub and voice coil configuration you have?
  17. The tunings won't change just because you have a different sub, the box doesn't care what sub is in there. The net volume will change a tad because of the different displacements of the sub and that'll affect the tuning, but it will be negligible.
  18. Yeah you really just need to learn to listen for stress. If this is in a trunk it makes things more difficult because you can't hear the distortion as well inside the car. You have to open the trunk and stand behind it a few feet to hear it well. But also, it may not have been the installer's fault. You, after all, have your hand on the volume knob. If they set the gain on the amp with the head unit on volume 30 but you turn it up to 40, you're going to have problems.

    hey, there are a couple of us from Kansas. What city/town are you in? I have a '98 Explorer as well.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    I have zero desire to live in any city larger than Lawrence (80,000). Maybe that's because I grew up in a town of 20,000 and it took 5 minutes to get anywhere in town. Loved that. This 45 minutes to go anywhere in a big city is for the birds.
