  1. Finally added acouple batteries to my system. Just picked up some small sealed batteries from a local battery shop. They help alot, I dont drop below 12v now.

    Also used all Knukoncept wiring. 1/0 ran to the back for the batteries and 4ga to the amps. Very Flexible wire! The 1/0 can be wraped around your finger!

    Made a small video of some sub shots and flex.

    I love the second song of the vid, thats *6 12's by webbie* right? awesome setup tho!

  2. Ah... The new 1500 amps.

    Have you compared them to the old Silver case ones?

    I have the old style on my 18's.

    I agree with the too little port area statement.

    16 cubes is a bit big unless you are running low power.

    But, I'm pretty sure those 4 1500's on the 2 18's will get the job done.

    BTW, why not just get two of the 3000's?

    They are two of the 1500's in one case.

    Well Rusty said they do well in 8 cubes so unless he ment 8 cubes for the 2 thats why i was thinking of going 16.

    The reason im running 2 of them strapped is because i hear that the 3000 has alot of problems running at 1 ohm but those 2 strapped ran just fine at 1 ohm the whole time i was home never got hot or anything.

    The old 1500 silver case was the one i had in there originally with my old setup and they ran fine, for some reason this one seems to have alittle more *umpf* to it, only way to discribe it. But i listen very carefully and thats what it seemed like to me.

  3. well at the moment i only have 2 videos on the box in the pic that the subs actually tore apart!! but it was taken right befor i went and got it metered.

    My next setup will be 4 audiopipe 1500.1d amps and 2 18" level 5s in a 16 cubic foot box hopefully if i can fit it in there, tuned low for a groundpounder type setup.

  4. Well as the topic states, ive only posted a few times on here so far so i thought i would introduce my self.

    My name is Derrick im 21 and currently serving in the ohio national guard ive been pretty much active duty my whole military career so far since i got deployed right out of AIT.

    I drive a 1998 Acura Integra GS-R with the B18C5 motor swap in it 5 speed as well.

    Now for the Audio setup i have currently

    2 level 4 15" DC audio subs with level 5 voice coils.

    1 Kinetik HC2400 in the back and a HC1400 i think in the front *dont remember got it put in while i was on my pass*

    2 Ap15001D Audiopipe amps thats at 1500 watts at 1 ohm

    Dynomatted the trunk just once

    Power Accustic 5" touchscreen head unit

    8 cubic foot box tuned to 43hz but thats changing when i get the 18s!

    Thats in a 6 cubic foot box tuned to 35 hz and the subs were just dropped in. * im #4 in the pic* but i hit 146.9 befor i left when they were not even broken in.

  5. thats the whole thing, i dont want to deal with a dealer because im overseas on a deployment ! I personally would rather deal with Rusty since he sold me my lvl 4s.

    I mainly just need a price list, ill call and place the order here soon, im dead set on 2 18" level 5s

  6. I have 2 15" lvl 4 with the upgrade lvl 5 voice coil and i put 2x ap15001d's on them. 1 per sub and they handled them just fine at full but im upgrading to level 5s here soon most likely i just dont know when.

    edit* forgot to mention i hit 146.9db in a integra hatch befor they were broken in hardly at all! thats with termlab on the front window
