Dragonsyph Posted December 23, 2018 Report Share Posted December 23, 2018 It is an FI team 4 18" version 2. Says RMS of 4500 watts but who knows. https://ficaraudio.com/product/team4-series-team18/ Would you pick the 5k, or 8k as there is only 150 dollars difference? Can get HCCA8000.1DV2 for $999 shipped. 8k I would need to wire to 2ohm for 5900 watts at 12.6v 5k I would need to wire to 1ohm for 5000 watts at 12.6v Which amp I get I guess will determine what voice coils I get. I'm hoping these sub can handle it aye? ♦ Sundown NSV4 18" + Sundown SALT-4 Baby ♦ MechMan Elite 370a + XS3100 - XP3000 ♦ SHCA 1/0 OFC(blue) + SMD Fuse Holders(blue) ♦ Pioneer AVH-2440NEX + SHCA Pro RCA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiBo Posted December 23, 2018 Report Share Posted December 23, 2018 It'll take that 5K at half ohm to push that 18 for everything it's got in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CstrokerV Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 Just get the 8 and run it at 1 ohm make sure you have excellent electric my build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/142505-small-build-log-4-dc-lvl3-10s-tl-update-link-to-rebuild/ http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/154258-rebuild-6-lvl3-12s-update-small-video-nothing-spectacular/ new build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/188181-03-trailblazer-slow-build-8-dc-lvl3-12-m1-motor-m2-parts/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might need to time to 30hz or set my subsonic higher then 25hz ♦ Sundown NSV4 18" + Sundown SALT-4 Baby ♦ MechMan Elite 370a + XS3100 - XP3000 ♦ SHCA 1/0 OFC(blue) + SMD Fuse Holders(blue) ♦ Pioneer AVH-2440NEX + SHCA Pro RCA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CstrokerV Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 better then running that 5 at .5 like the other guy said just keep an eye and nose on it and you can even turn down the gain after you set the gain properly.... or maybe 2 18's or try the delta either way make sure your electrical is up for the task my build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/142505-small-build-log-4-dc-lvl3-10s-tl-update-link-to-rebuild/ http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/154258-rebuild-6-lvl3-12s-update-small-video-nothing-spectacular/ new build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/188181-03-trailblazer-slow-build-8-dc-lvl3-12-m1-motor-m2-parts/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how many battery’s I need yet, prolly like 5 d3100s ♦ Sundown NSV4 18" + Sundown SALT-4 Baby ♦ MechMan Elite 370a + XS3100 - XP3000 ♦ SHCA 1/0 OFC(blue) + SMD Fuse Holders(blue) ♦ Pioneer AVH-2440NEX + SHCA Pro RCA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how many battery’s I need yet, prolly like 5 d3100s With 2 alts and 3-4 runs and 600+ ah of AGM you can run that 8k @ .5 and actually see close to rated if not rated. Quality high current amps run under 1ohm reactive easy with the juice to feed them. Nothing wrong with 1ohm if you get an amp big enough but I like getting my money's worth outta my amps. You could always get two 3k's 1 per coil. A few guys here in Vegas running Fi like that. Fi woofers are no joke. I have a few. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CstrokerV Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 Running at .5 ohm is hard on the amp no matter how it’s built not to mention there’s other problems running that low .... someday I’ll have a dc 10k just to run at 2 ohms ... uhhhhhh probably lol my build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/142505-small-build-log-4-dc-lvl3-10s-tl-update-link-to-rebuild/ http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/154258-rebuild-6-lvl3-12s-update-small-video-nothing-spectacular/ new build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/188181-03-trailblazer-slow-build-8-dc-lvl3-12-m1-motor-m2-parts/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmanjr82 Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 Go with the 8k to ensure you have plenty of CLEAN power and leave yourself room for expansion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
