MBarber25 Posted May 12, 2009 Report Posted May 12, 2009 I'm new to this stuff so don't laugh too much...but i'm about to buy (1) 15" Fi BTl and i have a couple questions. One is that what's the ideal dimensions on a box for this since i know i can't get a prefab one. (The cubes and port etc. all that stuff) Another is that i should be alright running the sub off a tiny JL 250/1 until i get enough money for my amp that i really need? I just have to make sure the gain isn't all the way up so it doesn't clip or whatever,,right? Simple questions lol so I hope someone can help lol...Any help is good its most appreciated..thanks.

blackandgoldl69 Posted May 12, 2009 Report Posted May 12, 2009 i would just wait till you can get the right amp and all of your power lined up then pay someone to build you a box for it
tristan560 Posted May 12, 2009 Report Posted May 12, 2009 Yeah the 250 will push it, not anywhere near its potential. Not sure how much truck space you got for dimensions and everything, but give it around 4-5cubes, and 50-80sq.in. of port and call it a day. And the tunings all up to you. <u>99 Jimmy SLT 4WD</u> Systemless. <u>99 Grand Prix GTP</u> DC XL 12 on 1.5k tuned lowwwwww.

tristan560 Posted May 12, 2009 Report Posted May 12, 2009 Just make sure the guy building the box knows how to tune a port. haha youd be suprised how many people just throw it in there. Other than that good luck. We all start out somewhere, can only get louder from there! :hairtrick: <u>99 Jimmy SLT 4WD</u> Systemless. <u>99 Grand Prix GTP</u> DC XL 12 on 1.5k tuned lowwwwww.

We all start out somewhere, can only get louder from there! :hairtrick: Yea im searching for someone from my area that knows their shit it's kinda hard...but yea it'll definately get louder..im getting a t2000 as of now but that could change...but now the btl's are delayed for a wonderful 4 weeks so i don't think i'll be getting that..i was thinking either a orion hcca 15 or two 12" bl's..what do u think? from what i've seen Fi definately makes some quality shit and plus the bl's are the 2009 versions and the 09 btl's aren't out yet so i don't want to get subs that are outdated in a couple months if that makes sense.. but i've been researching and those orions seem to be pretty high quality subs..i'm impatient so 4 weeks isn't gunna cut it..again, what do u think?
