What are the zx amps?
-
Ok thanks for the help. How are the JL slash v2's able to produce the same output at 1.5-4ohm?
-
I have one JL 12 W7, it has a single 3 ohm voice coil. Is there any way to change or trick the sub into playing at a lower impedance for more power, say at a 1 or 2 ohm load?

I was always under the impression that it was best to ground to the frame in the shortest distance possible? But your saying if I ground the cap and amp to the 2nd battery in the back I may pick up a little? I am not going to run the ground for the 2nd battery all the way to the front battery, as I had a hard enough time running the first wire where I wanted it. I think I may upgrade the ground wires up front and move the rear amp and cap grounds to the 2nd battery and see, as I am getting a little clipping. I have a question though, on only one particular song, a bass comp song with very low notes, the amp will go into protect mode, but I was watching the cap's voltage readout, and it never dropped below 12 something volts. Could this be because of grounds?

Guys, heres a few pics of the build I just finished for my brother in his expedition. Its 1 18" BTL fully loaded with a AudioQue 2200d. I built the box my self, it is 7.9 cu/ft. at 32 hz. I also ran streetwires 0 gauge as well as installed an extra optima battery and cap (cap was left over from previous build, so decided to install it) Like I said, I did the install and built everything myself for him. He is pretty happy with it. Here's some pics and a quick vid, let me know what you think. Thanks, Dan.

I'm still wondering about this, thanks. -
Help With Designing Box For 1 Btl 18

Guys, I have been playing around with RE's online ported box calculator and pretty much have it all figured out. . http://www.reaudio.com/speaker_box/LPort_Box_Calc.html I have a question though. The calculator gives inputs for 2 square port lengths. My question is, does the port have to make a 90* turn in the box? I am able to get my desired frequency with only one port board and no turn internally, but I'm not sure if the turn is needed or not. Thanks, Dan. -
Do you have a local decal shop? I have been able to take decals and have them copied and up sized before at a local vinyl shop. Nice GSX BTW. I have one too. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/members/pr..._tsi-37955.html -Dan.

Help With Designing Box For 1 Btl 18

Alright I'm pretty set on using those dimensions of 36"w X 20"h X 24"d, and I don't have excel so I can't play around with the calculator. How do I go about figuring out the port size. And do I use a round port(s), or built it vented? -

Thats correct the amp is a AQ 2200, and yes, the BTL 18 is fully loaded, and no, we really don't plan on putting more power to it later. Where can I find this amatt's calculator? Thanks, Dan. -

Yeah I know that. 48x20x36 is 20 cuft. I was doing some messing around came up with 36"w X 20h X 24"d, seems like a good sized box, but that still equals out to 10 cuft. Now after the displacement of the sub, and port(s), whereabouts would that put the cuft of the box? -

Alright I have some measurements now. I have 48" wide x 20" tall x 36" deep. I say 20" tall b/c thats just about where the glass starts, and don't want to obstruct the view out of the rear window too much. And I say 36" deep, but I am leaving my self about 8-10" extra space for my extra battery, etc. So there ya go, 48"w X 20"h X 36"d is the available space. Thanks for the help fellas, Dan. -

Thanks, I'll get some measurements of the back later tonight. The BTL I assume is this years model, we just ordered it last week, we don't have it yet. But yeah, I'll get those working dimensions for you.
