Questions on enclosures for the BL 18"

[lamchop_8 0]

I plan on buying 1 18'' Fi.BL with these options:dual 2 ohm,cooling,flatwind coil,daily option.Hooked up to a US Amps MD1D thats 1200 rms at 1 ohm.the BL's handle 1000 rms do you think the bl can handle the whole 1200 rms from the amp?I love loud bass but want it to hit low notes as well so what should i tune it to? With a ported box from 6-9 cubic ft. BTW just for a lucky guess how much db will I possibly b hitting will it be over 145db possibly 148db-149db.is that loud? Please answer all my questions.

P.S. I found the US Amps MD1D for just 209.00 is that a good price or is it the base price? 210.00 is my max im on a budget.Also how good are US Amps from a 1/10? Are they better than Kicker and Hifonics?Also whats the best kind of mdf wood for subs? to my knowledge 3/4mdf is? but I heared people on youtube talk about 21mm and 18mm mdf are those better? If so which one? and is the q louder than the bl because with the bp power for the q it can handle 200-500 more rms than the bl.

Thanks Guys:)

The Fi.BL is being shipped now and i want to know how big 10 cubic ft. is.because the specs says 5-10 cubic ft. so i was going to get the enclosure built to 10 cubic ft. Is 10 cubic ft. good for that sub for max bass and Hitting Good Low low notes or should i stick to the 7-8 cubic ft. range??

P.S.:Space is not a option so you dont have to ask that?These are the options:dual 2ohm,cooling,flatwind coil,daily.

How much inches wide & tall should the port be for this monster????

Thanks Guys:)

theres no way to tell what db youll hit, youll find out when you get it all set up if you go to a comp, as for the bl it can take 1500rms + a lil more. 1200watts would be a good match for it. 3/4 mdf will be fine. and no the bl will get louder than the Q
