audiofanaticz Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 the speakers are fine. Although a ported box may be a little better for your subs. If your not using your back seat, build a nice crx box for them lil boys. Subs up and the port firing to the rear. its the amp that you need to get rid off.

audiofanaticz Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 not trying to sound like ass or nuttin but why would they even put peak on the subs if it wasnt needed they put it there meaning that ass much ass the sub can take or even a little more now on steve 4 18" doenst he have 4k watt on each sub and i know them 18"s arent rated rms or max at 4000 or below if u understand The Fi BTLs are rated at 2,000 watts rms. However Im not sure on this or not, but I think that the fully loaded BTL will handle more then the stock model BTL becuase the fully loaded btl has advanced options such as cooling: which will allow the voice coil to stay cooler at higher volumes for longer periods of times. Steve is pushing a lot to his subs, but he is not pushing 4000 watts to each sub constantly. You also have to take into consideration that the box matters a lot with what your sub will handle too. If your box is built out of spec the sub will play like crap and will end up risking frying the coils, tearing the tinsel leads, having your cone tear apart from the spider etc. Steve is very expiercenced and qualified in this field and knows what will and wont work. Another example so to say is my sub Power Handling RMS........1500 Music......3000 Peak.......6000 But on the otherhand, when I was browsing the termpro site, I noticed a guy putting over 20,000 watts to one 18 inch sub like mine, and it took it, but again this sub was being used for competition and was only being burped for 5 or so seconds at a time. Peak really isnt needed and putting 20,000 watts to a speaker that says its peak is only 6000 watts proves that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
