  1. I went from FI BLs to HD3 woofers and I noticed it had a different sound totally. I ditched the FI BLs because they didnt handle the power well at lower Freqs they got hot ( No I didnt clip them) I had everything set up right. I changed the tuning from 34hz to 40hz and the hd3s were louder off the same power via termlab testing. Its up to the person you cant predict whats gonna work for you vs someone else. RD works best for me, its been the loudest in both my vehicles so thats what I run.

  2. The 95 yes if your not hard on them with clipping etc. The 35s some people would say yes, some say no..it would again depend on how clean the power is an at what freq your tuned at vs what your playing. The audioque HD3 is another option (alot like the 95series dd woofer) The RD Audio Hw will take the power as well. For daily I would say 6-12s would be freakin plenty!!

  3. 50watts rms should be fine, but its going to depend on how you set up your gains and how loud you actually turn it up. The quarts I have dont require alot of power to be honest, Im running a fosgate 400a4 to 2 pair of comp sets and its at 1/4 gain, I dont need anymore then that. If you want I can get the ac clamp and dmm out to get close to exact power they are seeing.

  4. Clipping the signal from the head unit to the amp is a concern as well, if your turning it up full tilt for long periods of times it causes whats called a clipped or dirty signal to the amp which causes the amp to heat up, clipping also causes your subs to heat up you can check that by touchin the dust caps they will be warm or hot depending how long and how bad your clipping it. Also somthing else to think about is the subsonic filters etc. If you have your box tuned at like say 36hz your gains not set properly and your trying to play below tuning it causes subs to get hot QUICK!
