    Alpine iDA-x200

    Is that the one without the CD player? Pretty slick little unit.

    Ready to buy/Bl or Q series

    You're going to be throwing 3kW on them... so get the BL fully loaded. You'll be happy with it. Step down to a 2kW amp if you want to run the Q's.

    My first setup

    Looks good. Now you have to decide on what type of box you're going to build. Ported or Sealed. Although with your listening habits, you should be leaning to the ported route.

    Which mids and highs are better?

    All of the speakers you've listed already have tweeters with them. Stay away from any coaxial speaker that advertises "3-Way" or "4-Way" or higher than that. You want a simple speaker that is a 2-way coaxial. Start a new topic listing the current issues you have and then give us a budget and the space available for upgraded speakers.

    what's everyone think

    If you want something that "knocks", you should be using a ported box.

    Help

    You need to adjust your port lengths. The first one should be 3-4 inches wide. Length depends on the tuning.

    Like a red headed step child It splits the power. If it was equal power to both subs, you would have a 3.2kW amplifier. If you want more "boom, boom" then give the ported box a try. Fi has ported box specs stickied in the Technical forum. Also, if you have the room, just run both of them ported. They'll be getting more power to each sub than if you ran just one ported.

    I'd do your best to read this entire site http://bcae1.com/

    amp too powerful for sub?

    Turn the bass boost to off. Then set your gains correctly.

    Help

    The debate between ported and sealed enclosures depend entirely on your listening preferences. Not your friends. Not ours. You could still use the amp on that sub wiring it to 4 ohms in a ported enclosure. Deciding which enclosure is important though. What things, if any, don't you enjoy about your current setup?

    FI BL amp Suggestion

    Budget? Electrical? Voice Coils on your BL's?

    Amplifier load?

    It doesn't matter on that amp.
  17. johnecon2001

    Amplifier load?

    Entirely depends on the particular amplifier and the goal of your project. Unfortunately, there's no cut and dry answer.
  18. johnecon2001

    current draw

    Amperage draw depends on voltage supply available and ohm load. Both are reactive so no real way to calculate them.

    Amplifier load?

    There's no disadvantage or advantage. Ohm loads are to help you wire your subs to something your amplifier and vehicle electrical can handle.

    We need reviews!!!

    Really? Go buy them both and review yourself.

    I fail to see why you need to spend $30 on an adapter... http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.c...FTOKEN=15436526

    I can't take it.............

    Because going here was too hard for you?

    Buy a monitor that already has a composite input. Most of the Dell's already have this option.

    icon 15: ported or sealed enclosure?

    You listen to Rap and Reggae. 33hz is perfect for you. I already listed a length.
