What would you do 4 15's of...

Recommended Posts

So, I have been debatin on a lot lately what to go with on 4 15's.....Q, BL, BTL. I love lots of vibrations and tons of SPL, so not real sure. My wife who rides with me a lot loves lots of vibrations to, but onlike my current truck, actually wants to hear the music with it...lol. I have no exp at all except watchin video, but you obviously cant tell from that. So, what would you guys suggest. For this install, money is not a very big issue....but like anyone, the more I save in the end the better, lol. Lookin for you guyz' ideas and input.

If you haven't read my previous post, it is going in the bed of a truck with a blowthrough.

Through this out before any posts hit, would 4 BLs allow for both of us to be happy. Give me a good chunk of SPL and give her the SQ she wants. In the end though, I will be hooking up all the knobs and fun stuff to control it, so we could always turn down the BLs. Anything is gonna be a big jump from my 2 12" RF P3s.

cool man, sounds like a good set up. im going with 4 15" in the bed of a nissan p/u ext cab dont know what kind of amps yet an havent decided on a camper shell or tonneau cover. btl will be the subs though. about 2kw to 2.5kw to each!!! should easily put me low to mid 150's. what kind of amps are u going to run them with?

If I get BLs or Qs, a RF4000 for all 4

If I get the BTLs, then 2 RF4000s for the 4.

Again, it all depends. Hopefully I can find the answer through peoples ideas or suggestions to make me and my girl happy. If I can use somethin like a bass control knob and drop the subs way down when she rides, then that is what I will do. Kinda new to this, so I am not 100% if that works the way I think it does though.

Dude, I think I know you....anyway. I wanted to say that I am goin throught the exact same problem right now cause my old lady. She says she wants it to sound "pretty" and the money I save by getting Q's and saving on power I could buy her something nice...lol. Anyway, I hope you get your answer, I am curious myself about this one being I am now in the same predictiment.

Hmmmm. By what u say your location is and that metal malicia avatar, I am assuming that is the same one on your back window of your truck, then yeah, I know you. I also remember the past incident we had...........anyway, back to what I was about to ask. Is it possible to set it up to where you can control how much power your subs are gettin by using something like a bass knob, this way she can get what she wants and I can listen to it the way I want when she isn't in the car. Or should I just go with something like the BL or Q.

Or as embarrassing as it sounds, I havent even noticed the SSD, what is it really used for and would it be a better choice, even though the answer is probably no.

Personally if you want it to sound good and get hellaciously loud when you want it to, I'd do the 2 rf4ks on 4 BTLs.

Your h/u should save multiple user equalizer presets. You can adjust it with the bass the way you want it when YOU listen to it, then have another setting with the bass all in the negatives for her. This is what I did for my g/f, she barely wants to hear bass at all. Some amps come with a bass control knob, I personally dont like them-but you might.
