Alright guys please don't hate too much, i found this audiobahn h2300hct amp on ebay and im pretty sure its what im going to get. It does 1200 rms at 2 ohms, and thats what id be running. Unless you guys could help me out and tell me of another good priced good amplifier.. im on a big budget im bout to move out of my current house. I blew my sundown 1200d running it at .25 ohm :[

I really didnt even consider that, but i wouldn't even know what to do, or what to look for? I was running it at .25 so what would probably be the problem?

Yeah i stated in my post i plan to run them to two ohms, i know it wasn't smart of me but i didn't understand at the time that they couldn't draw one ohm from it. Im just really getting a replacement amp, i think this amp would be fine at two ohms, and would be able to produce atleast 600 watts. My budget is really 300, if i go 50 more i think id just get the audioque 2200d, but idk id like it cheaper than 300

soi have a sundown1200d wired to 1 ohm to two ixl twelves does this mean im strappin half an ohm load? Do you think the ixls are under any pressure if it is?

If i were to get two 12 ixls and push them with a sundown 1200d, would they be louder than if i were to just purchase one and put the full 1200 watts to it? Also this may be a dumb question but a friend of mine's dad is gonna build me a box, and if i were to make 1 cut out on one side, later on could i add another cut out to the other side? Its gonna be a sealed box but i was wondering if that would mess the frequencies up and stuff. thanks

Okay guys, im actually going with the BL, its been a tough one but its the one that i think will fit my needs. Im getting a 12. Which options should i get for it to be a daily driven machine. Also, i found out one of my friends dad can make me a box so if you guys could help with a box idea? Also, how should i face the subs since they'll be right behind my seat? Up or facing the back?

I've been trying to decide for weeks what i wanted to do for an audio set up. Im pretty sure i have it figured out. Im thinking about ordering it all today or tomorow, so i could use some fast help. Im getting the sundown 1000d and 1 12'' FI sub, i would go fifteen but i don't think i could fit it. I'm stuck between the FI ssd, or fi bl. I listen to mainly rap, and heavy metal(alot of double kicks and what not) so its a daily sub. I like boomy deep bass, i don't care so much about higher notes but the better one could hit them the better. I was also wanting to ask about enclosure suggestions, im not too worried about loosing all my space in the back, but if possible i want some room. If not at all, and you guys think i could fit a fifteen please tell. The vehicle is a 96 chevy s10. If anyone has done this with an s10 please post a picture. Ill go out and get the dimensions of it.

Good choice my friend. My friend has two of the 15's and I must say that they will happily handle everything we have given them. What are your max dimensions? All three sides please... PS - I know nothing about how sealed sounds The max length is 40 inches, i'd like to save a few if im only gonna have one sub. The width is about 12, but if i made a bass it could be wider. The height doesn't matter much i just don't want it like going all the way up to my rear windows. Should i get a 15 instead of a 12? Like if i get sick of bumping could the 15 handle low music, my friend was telling me something like it wouldn't beable to hit the low lows or something i don't know. I just want the best bang for my buck you guys know! In the near future i plan on putting another q in, so with that in mind do you think two fifteens could fit in my truck haha..

So, you guys sold me on the q again, congrats! haha and with that change came with an amp change. I am now wanting to get the sae 1200d to run 1200 watts to it if the bp option really pushes it to 1500 watts. How does it sound in sealed boxes? If it sounds well i may just get a 15 and get a 2.5 cubic feet box. Could that fit in my truck?

ughh haha i just want a system im so tired of the research! Im pretty set on FI, im willing to put what ever options on it i need to to get it doin what i want it to thats not a problem. I did look at the havoc looks like a good sub but im so sick of going from sub to sub lol. So the qs what you guys are saying? Buh ill have to use a ported box so it has to be bigger right? I'd need to build the base. My friends urgin me on a bl. I was considering the q as the first fi sub, but then saw what i guess apeared to be alot more than what i thought of bad reviews my bad haha. I was however lookin at the sundown audio 1000d(the amp i want) plus a icon 12d sub? UGH!! hahaha

I was condiering the q, but then on this forum i've been reading a few bad things about them. Like the magnet cracking. Im lookin for a durable hard hittin sub that'll last long. Unless they were comping theirs. The ext cab is like length:35x width: 11(Comfy). If i were to build a base tho because i have an obnoxious hump back there i could make a wider box for sure.

I have been flippin back and fourth between subs for a good two weeks just drivin myself crazy. I have finally decided on RE. I can't quite decide if i want to go with 1 15'' SX, or two 12'' Ses. Either way ill go ill probably get an amp just to match the rms, maybe two hundred more, so that being the 15 is 1000, and the 2 twelves are 1200 total, HELP!!

Its internal i believe, each chamber as 1.20 cubic feet of air space.

I took a look and measured my sub space and i don't think i can get a 15 :'(. So now i am forced to go with the 2 12 res. Big question tho i am now looking at boxes and was wonderin if the mounting depth on them is 6.5, would it matter if the boxs depth was 7.5? or would it throw it off?

guys, i don't really want to wake people up at 2 in the morning. I just wanna be able to be that guy. I don't care about impressing other people i want my own personal preference, now i went to one of those threads and tried to throw info down as quickly as i could before work, here ill go back to both and rephrase everything. I have had two set ups in a previous car(honda accord) They were both ran by the same h2300 hct audiobahn amp at different times. I had 2 12'' alpine type rs, and 2 12'' audiobahn aw1206ts. My current budget is probably a bit shy of 600. The vehicle this all is going into is a 96 chevy s10 ext cab. I havn't heard alot of other systems but lately i've been hangin with my bud who has a four door car with one 15'' audio q? It pounds like a beast atleast to me.. I think im shooting for more SPL, but i also want a little SQ. I've heard good stuff about RE only over the internet, but like never if i ask any local person, so i am asking you guys, 2 12'' RE SE, or 1 15'' RE SX. I will be runnng the rms wattage nothing over. I was also wondering which was the best way to face an enclosure, with subs up, towards the driver, or towards the bed. thanks if you guys help this time...

Also, i listen to alot of rap with slow low ass beats, gangsta stuff. Im pretty much decided on a hifonics brutus amp.

I just wanna have some bangin bass that wakes you up at 2 in the mornin. I've had two audiobahns gettin pushed with 2400 watts, and i miss it. I have an ext cab s10, with the 15 i would hope to gain room, but i think the box needs to be 3 cu. ft? So i just really wanna know which subs gonna pound harder for the longest. Which setup would be louder? Maybe a suggestion on how to face a box in a truck cab?
