    box design for single ported E8

    You could use aero ports and put them outside the box.

    which battery?

    Stinger makes a good battery, if you can afford that.. go ahead. More to the point though, there are more batteries to be had for the money that are just as good and possibly bigger. Check out the SSA Store for the Powermaster batteries that are there, you get a discount when you add them to your cart.

    anyone got an iphone 3g?

    I've got a G1.. which coincidentally has some of the same apps as the iPhone. You should check out Shazam. It'll listen to a recorded song and then analyze it and tell you who sings it and what album its from. Bad ass.

    Power Up Grade With Maxx-Link

    Sure it's possible, but before I ruled out that it wasn't helpful.. I'd check the phasing on all of your wiring and components.

    I wouldn't expect very much out of any amplifier you buy for $10..

    New Mag box recommendation?

    Indeed. 1 cube sealed. If he intended to get loud, there are other woofers he should have chosen.

    Power Up Grade With Maxx-Link

    Any Maxxsonics dealer should be able to get you one. IIRC, they're not that expensive for what they do. http://www.maxxsonics.com/corporate/news_0...f_MAXXLINK.html

    Perhaps the IA Death Penalty or the Ascendant Audio Havoc

    Batteries..how many

    Any idea what the stock alternator produces amperage wise? And you'll need to give us an idea how the 3000D will be wired... because if you plan on running that thing at 8 ohms.. you'll be fine

    Replacing Magnent on a Fi BL 15"

    You'll have to send it back to Fi. It has to be demagnetized to be repaired. Unless you have the proper equipment to do that, I wouldn't try to fix it on your own.

    jl w6 or bl

    oh you too.

    jl w6 or bl

    What don't you like about the W6's that has you wanting to move on? Just for reference's sake, the W6 is seen more as an SQ woofer where the BL is a ground pounder that sounds ok. Certainly not in the same class as far as quality of sound and power handling go.
  14. If you haven't already upgraded your stock battery, I would do that first.

    Need a little help....

    What kind of space do you have for the sub? Exact measurements please. Also, what does your front stage consist of? Blending with the sub is certainly a major issue to sounding good. And lastly, your budget is enough to buy the amp. Not amp + woofer.

    8" sub, need some help

    The Soundsplinter RL-i 8 is around that size, a little taller. It'll handle 500w, but it doesn't need that much. It wants around .5^3ft sealed.

    head unit suggestions

    It doesn't have USB and that was one of your needs.

    wtf is wrong with your pants/shorts?

    wiring amp to bl 18"?

    We need to change and/or delete that tutorial, there is a lot of misinformation in there... Write up a new one! Just make it n00b friendly.

    (3) saz-1500s on 8 subs???

    Sounds like a good plan

    (3) saz-1500s on 8 subs???

    Three amps just doesn't work. You'd have to drop two subs. Either wire four subs to each 1500D at .5 ohms, or sell both 1500D's and buy a 3000D and run it at 1 ohm.

    Custom W7?

    Because they won't do it. I'm sure Nick or Scott can elaborate further, but from past posts asking about W6 recones, they will flat out tell you "no, go to JL".

    (3) saz-1500s on 8 subs???

    We're going to need to know what impedance your subs are. But I can already tell you're attempting to make this more complicated.. Just run one large amp.

    head unit suggestions

    Indeed, but they are even more expensive. Cheaper ones that I find somewhat appealing are as follows Alpine AVH-P5000DVD Clarion VRX585USB Kenwood KVT-719DVD Another option is the Alpine IVA-D105, but you'll need the KCA-620M USB Adapter.

    Custom W7?

    iirc, recones from JL are stupid expensive for the W7
