Ford302Redneck Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 I seen the new picture of the N2, it has a flatwound coil, not sure if he didn't get the option or if the new HIXMAX coil is also flatwound, it use to not be.

David Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Longer coil isn't really to add power handling its for more xmax, while the cooling option should allow a guy that is experienced enough to add more power, but not someone who has no clue, and no offense but the op is not experienced enough to know.

bkolfo4 Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 (edited) Longer coil isn't really to add power handling its for more xmax, while the cooling option should allow a guy that is experienced enough to add more power, but not someone who has no clue, and no offense but the op is not experienced enough to know. Why respond? Please explain why adding more xmax and more copper does not increase power handling. . .and why you need experience for the cooling option to help.

David Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 I didn't say it didn't, please reread what I wrote, again reread what I wrote, I basically said I wouldn't tell a newb he can add more power then the rated 2kws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkolfo4 Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 The problem is no one knows the exact answer. If you know what you are doing, your amp settings are correct, and your box design is correct, 3000+ watts should not be a problem for a loaded BTL.

papoose42 Posted December 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 well i am only asking this question because they say that adding these options will increase power and w.e. i just dont understand, i get the stats on the basic sub i just dont get it with all the features Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Ahh well I learned by doing it, started 20 yrs ago just started seeing what I could do, then the interenet came about, and I have read and read and read and read, I am constantly reading even today I am still learning, I will continue to learn by reading, you should try it, most of the options are self explanatory, if you don't understand any of it, why would I or anyone else suggest you run more then rated power? Rated power is 2kw. Options or not. They will take more absolutely but if your inexperienced, I don't suggest it regardless what others say.

David Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Read bro, seriously, there is soooooo much info on the net its not even funny, got a question google it, im not saying that to be an ass, im saying that because the info is out there. You say you don't understand, let's look at the cooling option, alot of woofers die an early death from thermal failure. Ie overheated coils. Less heat equals less failure. less heat means you can add more power because the coil runs coooler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
