stuart_goodenough Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 I purchased an Fi Btl and when i hooked it up to a jl 500/1v2 amp it started to make a knocking sound everytime the bass changed from high's to low's. This was the first time it was hooked up, what could the problem be and, has anyone else had this problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redbaron80 Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 you are running a 2500 rms sub with a 500 watt amp. Get a decent amp then report back please, 500 watts will not move a BTL.

01xtreme Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 not the best amp by any means, but my shitty PA A3000's have my BTL's moving pretty good, and they're cheap as hell. like 300 shipped for BNIB.
