98 Lincoln Navigator sub setup

[Brandon McCullough]

I'm debating on getting 2 12" Fi SSD's or 2 12" or 15" Fi Q's....I really like SQ and also SPL but I do have a large suv I wll be taking my 3rd row seating out for this. I'm not going for anything crazy but my brother has a Fi BL 12" in his accord and its crazy but doesn't pick up the lows like I like. Also the sub selection I make they will be fully built with all the add-ons. I deciced to go with Fi from JL W7's because of the price. Originally I was going one 13W7 but the sound of Fi blew me away. Any thoughts? I listen to mostly everyhing...rap, country, rock.

Go for Q's. Sealed. Gret sq and output from them.

if your more into SQ then you might want a couple of 8's. they are more punchy then larger diameter subs but don't get the lows the best and I would do them a sealed box for sure. just make sure what ever you end up getting it has enough airspace.

Well the above statement just isn't true. First off 8's will get low and 10's and 12's can be really punchy. The box plays a huge part in determining sub characteristics. And you dont have to have a sealed box to sound good. Build the proper box and you can get good SQ ans SPL. As far as either the Q's or SSD goes, you will be happy with either one.

False. Speaker size doesn't have a thing to do with frequency output...

If it was me, I'd do a pair of SSD12's in 1.7 a piece, ported at 35hz. Off something like a DC2.0k or a Crescendo BC2000d.

You could do common chamber, 3.2 after displacements with a pair of 6 inch aero's, tuned in the mid 30's. You'd need close to 4.5 gross volume though, either way.

SSD's are killer bang for buck, I love mine, getting another soon and one of those amps I mentioned. Mine was tuned somewhere around 30 hz and killed everything from 26-50hz.
