I'm in Utah with ya man.
Shit's lame. Had my first non-Utah beer a couple weekends ago and that shit hit me like a ton o' bricks. I'm used to being able to pound 3 or 4 beers here without anything but I had 5 in Idaho and I was -
Correct.
Thank you.

Bangin caddy, thanks for the great info. That's exactly what I wanted to know. But in a simple dummy form for me, if I'm running more than one sub and I wire in parallel I would do the equation like this: 2 dual 8 ohm subs, take the 8 ohm then divide 4, I would be running at 2 ohms. If I wired them in series it would be: 2 dual 8 ohm subs, take the 8 ohm and multiply it by 4, I would be running at 32 ohms. Yes?
4 dual 2 ohm subs in parallel would be 2 ohm/8 = .25 ohm series would be 2 ohm(
= 16 ohm -
Let me Google that for you.
I didn't know it was Ohm's law... Thank you

I tried searching this one but couldn't find it... Maybe I'm retarded. Anyway, how do you know what OHM load your amp is at? I know there are diagrams and stuff to show you how to get different OHM loads but how do they figure it out?....
-
Thank you Nova. How did you find out if the amp was 1 ohm stable ? its an older model maybe 5 years old!
Google. Says it's rated @ 1 ohm. If you can get the part number of the amp I could double check for you.

I have an old kicker 1200.1 amplifier but I'm not sure what Ohm stability it has and I'm wanting to buy an Fi BL 18" dual 1 ohm. My question is what could happen if I wired the dual 1 ohm woofer up to my amp and my amp isnt 1 ohm stable? And how can I find out if my amp is?
Your amp is 1 ohm stable and if you're getting a BTL and want to run it @ 1 ohm get the dual 2 ohm then wire as so-

Nice work Steve. Just reading through everyone's builds I've learned some new shit. Can't wait to get a build of my own going one of these days. Love the Vinyl work on the box.

I'm in the same boat, trying to get a better bass set-up while staying right at a grand or less. I don't want to topic jack but I'm interested in what you guys have to say for just "pounding music". I'm looking for something with mad bass when I want it.

Are Hifonics amps not that great? I'm a newbie. =0
-
I looked at them but I can't afford $899 for an amp... BTL's say 2k RMS and people are running more but for the more inexperienced at wiring etc, stay close to the 2k... I will shoot him a PM on here and see if that helps. Keep suggestions coming please.
-And I will look at that Audioque

I tried to search for this but I stopped after page 4 of my search. Anyway, I ordered a fully loaded dual 2 ohm 18" BTL and I only have about $500 to spend on an amp and I want to keep it around $400 if possible. The only one I have found that looks decent in my price range is the Hifonics BXI 2610D. Inputs please.

are you goin to run a stock alternator or a HO alternator?either way i would run a extra battery that thing is gonna need power sumhow
It already has an HO alternator and my voltage meter goes from pegged at the top to barely moving down about a 1/16th of an inch when the bass hits... Mind you I'm not running anything awesome, 2x 760 watt amps and 2x Sony Xplod's... So going to the BL's should be a HUGE jump. Just gotta get the box plans right. I might see if someone can draw up a nice ported box setup for the BL's. I've only made 2x boxes so far... I'm graduating in less than a month and no more wood shop.

oh i didnt know.. my bad ! i dont have FI and just know their rms is around 1000 or 1500
Thanks for the input guys. So 1 of those amps should do just fine. Now should I add a battery in the back or will I be alright running just the one amp? I'm in a '93 S-10 Blazer in Mint condition.
-
i would say 2 1610 hifonics would be nice... or 1 2600 if you got d4 ohm config to wire to 1 ohm
I know nothing about wiring so... please explain? I've just read how to tune amps. I know very little about the details of wiring. I'll be researching alot when I actually get my new subs and amp to install them properly so any info you have I would love it.

I'm looking to upgrade my system and I'm not to knowledged on subs/amps, etc... So I've been browsing and I was wondering if the Hifonics Brutus amps are any good. I'm looking at getting 2 12" FI BL's for daily use and either 1 or 2 Hifonics BXI 2610D's. I'm sure I could get away with one but I'm not an audio guru, and it wouldn't be bad to have the amps ready for a sub upgrade if I wanted.
Any help is appreciated.
Also, Would I need an electrical upgrade with 2 of those amps? I already have a high output alternator running low grade sub/amp set up... 2x 12" Xplod's with 2x 760 W max amps.

Winter is coming up and I'm driving an ice box in the morning and at night so I think I have the solution but have a few questions. So there's no headliner in my truck as it's a 1970, they didn't make them, so I'm thinking about making my own headliner for insulation reasons. I want to put some second skin sound damplifier on the roof followed by heatwave pro, then some black carpet. Now what could I use to get the insulation and carpet to stick to the roof? Would some headliner glue work or do you guys know of something that will work without falling off?
