[iocca 0]

so i just bought a jl 1000.1 amp and now im about to buy a fi 12Q. which voice coils should i get and how should i wire it? the box im going to build is 22"w-9.5"d-14"h sealed with 1.186^3 net air space in my tc. sorry for the noob questions, im not very good with wiring.

That amp is rated to do power from 1.5-4ohms right?

Thanks!

Get which ever you want then. A dual 1 ohm sub would be best in case you ever want to upgrade to 2 of them.

Dual 1's in series will be fine..

Thanks!

For a single Q, you can either get the dual 1 and wire in series or dual 2 and wire in parallel.

do dual 1 and wire to 2 ohms. if you wire that amp to 1 ohm it will absolutely drain your electrical, not saying you shouldn't upgrade anyways. But from past experience that amp runs best at ~2 ohms more than ~1 ohm.

It puts out the same power at 1-4 ohms.. how would it be any more draining on an electrical system?

i got a dual 1 ohm sub, now like i said im wiring illiterate, does anyone have a diagram of how i should wire it to my jl1000.1. also is that box going to be big enough? (22"x14"x9.5" exterior using 3/4" mdf) its going to be sealed. should i go a little deeper? maybe 10" or 10.5"? thanks in advance, i really wanna get this box made tomorrow or the next day.
