It'll be like this except instead of a wiring a 4ohm dvc to 8ohms you'll be wiring a 1ohm dvc to 2ohms.
-
I was curios how am i going to wire a dual 1 ohm to 2 ohms. I remeber somone explaining it to me before but i forgot. I googled and and came up with nothing.
You'll need to wire the coils in series. Pos form coil1 to amp, neg from coil1 to pos of coil2, then neg of coil2 to neg of amp.

if i didnt read your post a little better, i wouldve thought those pics were from Rockford Wizard Wiring Diagram.haha nope then they would have the RF logo in the subs not the FI on the diagram lol
That is a RF wiring diagram. Somebody painted the FI logo onto the dustcaps in the drawing. That might be why your speaker terminals didn't line up correctly with the directions of the logos on the subs.

sorry for asking so many questions guys were trying to figure this out tonight. May be able to start tommorow or monday. 30x20x15= 5.2ft3.
Does that sound about right ?? for a sealed.
I'm guessing those are external dimensions, right? If so then you still need to subtract for the width of the wood being used. Assuming its 3/4" MDF then your internal measurement for the usable air space will be 28.5x18.5x13.5 = 4.1ft before displacement. Then you'll have to subtract the displacement of the subwoofer, bracing, or anything else that gets built or mounted inside the box. Allowing 0.25ft for that stuff you'll be looking at 3.85ft of usable air space.

I like design #3.

I got Nero 7 Ultra Edition off Ebay for $15 shipped. Its working great for me.
-
Sounds like one of your subs is wired backwards.

Hifonics Brutus bxi1606d $250

x2 on the above. RFs will handle 0.7ohms.I'm also wondering if a T20001bd can handle a .7 ohm load.Hifonics BXI2006D.The only good thing about it is the price. But its the weakest of the group.
-
yea guys, im REALLY considering doing the 4 12" BLs with the cooling option. It only comes to like 1200 bucks. and I have the two t20001's. should pound right? i hope, i want to start competing somewhat. Bass race. Input?
Sounds like a good plan to me. Go for it and take some pics/vids while your at it.

In all honestly the punch stuff isn't even worth buying so of course I wouldn't waste my money on it, subs sound like shit and amps aren't the greatest either.
The new RF Punch line does suck compared to their older stuff. The P3s don't compare in any way to the Punch HX2s.
-
how legit was it??
It was just a list of regular websites to buy car audio gear like thezeb & sounddomain. There weren't any "too good to be true" deals. Its a scam. Don't listen. If that guy knew where he could buy those subs that cheap then he would be reselling the subs on Ebay and not a fucking list.
-
I bought a list like that off Ebay many years ago for $0.99. It was a basic list of a bunch of sites across the Internet that sell audio equipment.
-
Given the same power, the 4 12" BLs should out do the 2 12" BTLs.
-
oh lol that didnt sound right... what i ment was if you voted FI which fi woofer should i get and if you voted RE which re woofer should i get?
I think that depends on your price range and which amp you get. 2 12" loaded BLs & a T30001bd or 2 12" BTLs & a T40001bd.
-
Um did you happen to read the rest of my post? I clearly state why its BS
Yeah I read and I'm not arguing any of that. I was simply stating my opinion that you shouldn't hate on them or bash them for hyping their product. They still make a good product.
-
Normally I'd say go RF but I've been leaning strongly towards some FI BLs as my next subwoofer purchase.
-
I've thought about the T1500-1bd also. The birthsheets I've seen average around 1750rms though, none over 1800rms.
That's actually a little disappointing that they're not under rated any more than that. My next vote goes for the T20001bd. There's no doubt that it'll provide enough power.
-
I'd go with four of the BL 12s.
-
Anyway the reason I don't like RF is pretty simple... After the release of the T15KW I realized that RF is no better than companies like audiobahn when it comes to "hyping" themselves up.
I don't see anything wrong with the hype. Its just a tactic to get more business. There isn't a need to hate on them for it. I personally didn't like seeing their stuff at Best Buy but I figured its just business. Hype or not, RF makes an undeniably good product.
-
I'd recommend the new RF T1500-1bd. They're going for $500 on Ebay.

I haven't seen any birthsheets on these yet, but if its like the other Power amps then you should get a good 2000+watts. These amps are also supposed to be super efficient so they'll be easier on the electrical system.
-
I would verify everything. Check the power, ground, and remote to make sure their good. Then swap amps. Not only swap another amp into the car but swap that amp into another car. If you've verified that its the car and not the amp then it must be the deck (assuming there aren't any crossovers or equalizers in between). Check the wiring in the dash and make sure something isn't getting pinched or swap out decks all together.

HighDesert's are refurbished which is nothing wrong with that.....I just think why buy a $850 refurb when u can spend a extra $150 for new.
HDA does sell new stuff as wells, but not as cheap. I highly recommend them (even their refurbed stuff). All the work is professionally done by RF themselves, they give a warranty, and out of the few amps I've bought from them every one has looked brand new when I received it. If it wasn't for the description telling me it was refurbed I would have never known it. To me its just as good as buying a new amp and worth saving the $150.
-
what if i got the Hifonics 1200 watt amp. and an 18" FI Audio SSD? that would work good wouldnt it? or do i need some more balls to move that sucka
That sounds like a good plan.
Firebird Box Ideas?
in Subwoofers / Enclosures
Posted · Edited by Derrick824
I would do a box behind the rear seats with the subs angled at the rear glass and the port pointing towards the back of the car.
