yeah i figured it was just a defect as well but i mean i already sent one in and got another new one what are the chances that i could get 2 defective amps. and now they are ripping me off because i have to pay shipping back to them again not to mention time, it took over a month to get this amp after sending in my defective one. this is such bs man.

i have a new mb quart dcs 1500 and it turns on but it wont work. let me explain everything about my setup just so someone can help me. Big 3 done in knu 1/0 power and ground done in 2 gauge welding cable 150 amp anl stinger fuse and fuse holder pioneer DEH P480MP head unit Custom 12in woofer made by ssackett rated 1500rms its dual 2ohm coils, have them wired parallel to 1ohm which is perfect for the amp. and 1991 cadillac seville with 120amp alternator So everything turns on the amp turns on its in power mode not in protect, but no matter what i do the sub will not play, and i know the sub works since i hooked it up to my friends amp once already to make sure and both coils read a perfect 2.0 on the DMM. I dont know what to do i've tested the RCA's even tried a different pair of RCA's. also this is a brand new amp from sonic electronics. its the 2nd one i have got because this same thing happened to me a month ago and i just sent the amp back for a replacement thinking it was a defect. Thank you to anyone who can help me i appreciate it alot.

i would download the torres calc man its pretty simple and easy right here on the forum you should try it i'd go 3.5-4 cubes tuned to about 34hz i had the same subs and set up and it pounded try about a 4in port tuned to 34 and you will have the right amount of port area and it will sound real nice, good luck

you could get a dc lvl4xl 10 for probably around 350$ they will do 1500rms easily, only need 1.25- 1.5 cubes in a ported enclosure so you could most likely fit that between your seats if your interested in that i would talk to rusty here on the forum and i know that would get really loud too. good luck

two btl 12's would be much louder than your one 15 bl no matter what car you have or how your subs are facing i mean more cone area + more powerful sub motor, roughly 4x the amount of watts rms, bigger magnets, + them being powered correctly = louder haha thats just my opinion

Memphis or level 3's

just get the 1 12 it will be less box volume you need, port it around 34hz and you will be loud if its set up right plus u save 500 bucks thats hard to beat good luck -
if you can build the right box and have the right amp i think you will like the btl thing is a beast can easily handle over 2000rms daily

thanks man thats what i figured just wanted to be sure
-
when the specs say 3 to 5 cubes does it want that as the gross volume or the net volume?
-
might want to check your inline fuse and see if it popped somehow

i have a caddy as well with the arm rest cut out, never tried cutting out any of the rear deck, what kind of caddy do you have i have a 91 seville. did that rear deck cut out make any difference for you?

i've experimented with some of the same things since my seats don't fold down either and i've found it to sound better with the subs firing towards the trunk not the seats. not sure of the exact science behind it and the sound bouncing off the trunk rather than being absorbed by the seats... idk but its always sounded better towards the trunk for me.

if i was you i would stick with the alpine all around im bumping 2 12" type r's off the alpine pdx 1.1000 sounds great so if i was you id just go for that extra alpine mrp 1000 i think that'd be sick and with the right box you will be slamming man
