Guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 hifonics bx1605d. amp is fine. tell me how running not even 400rms out of a 1600rms amplifier causes the sub to distort early/sound like its bottoming out Quote
Jman08 Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 (edited) are you playin it below your tuning? I played my friends 15" type r off my saz3500 at two ohms and it didnt bottom out at all hmm Edited February 23, 2010 by Jman08 Quote Youtube.com/J Hutch22
Guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 (edited) are you playin it below your tuning no. all the notes distort (higher notes at a lesser volume) if i put it high enough. Edited February 23, 2010 by Kranny Quote
Toady Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 Maybe it's a problem with the sub itself, I'm currently running 2 on the BXI 2010 at 1 ohm and they hit the notes perfectly and go low without bottoming out Quote
El1T3Bass Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 type r's are good beginner subs i quess, but for the money get something else or save up... but if you get get them for a decient price used and there in good condish id get em... Quote wow now this just shows that smd isnt just any forum. We are a brother hood. here let me put it in retard-onix for u aareehhhh duuuurrrrr ehhh got it now? Sweet baby jesus the amount of quoting the quote above the quote in a quote is epic
dakidd7891 Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 tell me somethin i dont know. i would still expect more performance out of a 10 in a 2cuft box when it starts to distort when the sub is moving a little less than .5" on a 1600rms hifonics amplifier at 2 ohms. the biggest box u should have for that sub is a 1.3 cu ft ported. and that amp is 1100rms at 2ohms. the sub is 500. obviously somethings not adding up Quote NEW ORLEANS SLAP Alpine CDE-103BT 2 12'' JL Audio W3v3-4 Hifonics HIF1500.1
98crewcab Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 I was on a SMALL budget when I started my build. bought all 4 of my type R's for $400 new. And just under a $1000 for all 4 amps. Not sure what it would cost for a recone, but at that point I'd just buy a new sub and turn the power down a little. they get loud, hit the lows, (tuned to 34hz), and are going strong....sure, if I had a million dollas, I go bigger, but for the little bit that I have into my system, feel pretty good about it. I say if you can afford it, go bigger (better), but I think they are nice for the money.........they work great for me!
