    I have a question about subs to amp wiering???

    Yeah just use one set of speaker terminals and wire your sub accordingly so you can get either 1 ohm or a 4 ohm load. Check out subwoofer wiring diagram to help you if you dont know how to wire a sub to a certain ohm load, heres the link: http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp Select quantity of subwoofers and voice coil impedence and get started.
  2. You sound like you know from experience bro ... had you head up any guy's rear end lately ?? Only one I've been close to is my wife for 15 years ... The op was just asking for suggestions, You are being very rude in your statements. You sound like you are a smart guy, but your moderation skills suck ... You are the only moderator that uses profanity on just about every post ... That prorfanity and the female on you signature just looks bad for SSA ... I don't see how you get away with it ... Your funny. The op was asking for suggestions on something that will give him no benefit to use therefore the recommendation is simple, none. Considering his topic title it was only fitting to point it out. Witch Voodoo/snake oil etc have no place in real audio. Amusing that you take offense and have to then attack me, note I only go after the subject at hand and don't have some emotional response to it but you have to go and point out how you feel about my moderation skills. As for the profanity that is a direct quote are you recommending that I edit it? Fuck that. we should have a grown up section and kids section here since people get offended by you ///M5

    Pre-Build for the 97 MALIBOOM!

    Your cool in my book man, nice post man . Now are you planning on putting some of the box in the trunk as well to get more volume for your enclosure? I can see that helping you out with more airspace to make a correct box.

    Pre-Build for the 97 MALIBOOM!

    I got to wait 7 months for this, dang . First of all stop crying and getting emotional, noboy cares how your gonna pay for it. I guess they stopped making jobs when you got one, haha your hilarious. Actually the people who posted wanted to post here that is why they posted what they did . Second there are rules and regulations to post and your not following them what so ever. Third of all if you would of read the rules, it will tell you to take any and every response you receive in your thread whether you like it or not. So dont come on here getting your panties in a bunch. Personally all the post you made are ridiculous and getting worse, no offense but 6-15"s is not going into a Malibu walled so face it. But if you want to try then go ahead no one is telling you not too, some people who actually have more experience then you are just lending you a helping hand thats all. I say go with it since it is the only way to tell if you can get it to fit with the proper airspace and the right amount of port area. Just throwing as many subs in a car as you can with a shitty ass too small box wont perform like less subs in the right enclosure that will help them shine. Nobody cares about you being a noob or not or if they know you or not, shit you dont know us either so what does that mean . On this forum take the information that is given to you and use it or dont but dont let emotions get in the way, that is not what we are here for. Thanks and cant wait for the build log.
  7. x2, seen them used a lot when I was at school in Florida. The perform well and are good amps, they just dont have a sub sonic filter on them which wont work in my application.
  8. I heard they were ok for the price but no personal experience with one myself.

    12" SSA Dcon

    Try sending Mark a pm as well, he should respond to those as well for a quicker response.

    Will this box work?

    I would try and post your available dimensions on here so someone can help you design an enclosure, I wouldnt use a box that is designed by RE Calculator.

    4" Coiled BL option now on site

    I ordered 2ea Loaded BL15's with the 4" voice Coils on 12/2/2010 and 12 days later there's no sign of them even shipping out yet... ????? Anything Holding up the 4" BL15's from being produced? They've been backed up to hell dude. You're not the only one that has to wait to have a sub custom built for you in-house. I ordered my sub circa november 13th and didn't get it until yesterday, yet I have to say it was certainly worth the wait. Have some patience, Scott and Nick will get it out to you. Finally someone who ordered a CUSTOM product and understands they arent the only one in the world who has heard of Fi Car Audio. Be patiend Fi is not gonna steal your money, when your order information is updated it will show on your tracking. If there are any delays or hold ups Fi will make a thread and contact everyone individually.

    Of course Im not sure lol....Im gunna get out there today and give us dimensions to play with........... I was being sarcastic, your not going to fit them in there (at least try and be realistic about your goals). Its not about fitting the most cone area you can in a car wall or not, its about fitting the most cone area in the right enclosure. Seems to go over your head everytime someone tells you that, are you just trying to be cool. If you want to make a wall with 6-15"s then get a bigger vehicle buddy.

    PSI LMS ULTRA

    TC Sounds is a good company, been out of the game for a few years and came back earlier this year with the re-emergence of its subwoofers back in the market. Very good product with great reviews online, do a little searching as this is not the only car audio community online. As far as PSI some people have issues using there products because of he said she said or what they did in the past which wont be discussed as it has many times before. I wouldnt mind using them as I see they are having good success with recones and making subwoofers, some will try to sway you to stay away well most on here will tell you to stay away. I wouldnt let that stop me from buying a subwoofer I really want just because they reconed it or someone's personal feelings or emotions about the company, not how I rolll. Just look online and see reviews on both companies and make an informed decision. You cant get the original sub right now and it is has some upgraded parts to increase the power handling among other things for a cheaper price then how much the original would cost. Just my .02

    Sundown 1500d v.1 and 1500 v.2

    You didnt see the lack of fuses or smaller size when comparing the amps side by side or the thread about the differences in between the amplifiers.

    PSI LMS ULTRA

    Wow what a thread to start, if your interested in the sub the best person to talk to is the person selling it since he knows more about the sub and how it performs then the users on here. If I had room to fit an 18" in the trunk I would go for it. What is making you ask this question besides it is a good buy, that is subjective and a personal decision in my eyes. Now if your looking for it to fit your application then please ask another question with more info that pertains to you so we can see if it fits your goals or needs.
  19. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_27292_RE-Audio-VLX-1DE.html ----- Sub amp, a few more watts then you want. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_27296_RE-Audio-VLX-4150X.html ------ Im looking at the 4 channel as well unless I get another Sundown 125.2, what you thinking of letting your 100.2's go for? You can pm if you dont want to clutter up this topic.

    18" Subwoofer Dilema!

    dont you understand about it is all in the install, nobody can tell you what you will be happy with unless you have the same taste or use the same ears to listen to music. Flip a coin and choose or buy all three and get back to us with a review on what you preferred.

    Turn the bass off before you damage your speakers, that is why it is getting distorted. Dont use bass boost period, more power is always better then bass boost. Pictures man, personally I would bridge the amp to the components and keep the gain turned down and if you feel as they can take some more power than turn the gain up some, but clean undistorted power will make the speaker sing.

    Hove's Rebuild #3

    Check back on page 2, the oxygen audio speakers that are pictured on that page. He has a pair of crescendo super tweeters but at the moment he is looking for something smaller before he installs those.
