finkster Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Loudness makes the bass and highs louder at lower levels to compensate for road noise I believe. On some decks it clips, on others it doesn't. Mine doesn't. About the amp, set the gains correctly with an o scope or if you dont have one use a dmm. The BL will handle all the clean power that amp puts out, so just make sure you set it up right and you'll be fine.

finkster Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 I owned the 3 inch coil BL and it performed just fine. With your amp I would just get the 3 inch.

iKidwell Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 that hfi is only gonna put out like 800 rms if it's the new hfi line, they're pos....you don't really need any options on the bl if that's all the power it's gonna get. Quote c'mon now, if i was shooting an 8 year old, it wouldnt be MY 8 year old. i recently got a Pyle PL1590BL and i was building an enclosure for it tuned to 25 hz. i didn't have any tools to cut a circle so i hit it with a big hammer. 2003 Infiniti G35 Sport Sedan Build in Progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, given he sets it up correctly. If not the options will just be prolonging the inevitable.
