Gold Member Username: CavsmaximaNew York United States Post Number: 1122 Registered: Aug-06 | well long time no post for me, after I learned a ton of stuff from the ecoustics family and bought my system i kind of fell off the whole subwoofer thread. So last night walking to my car from work i noticed my back passenger window was pushed in and i had speaker wires hanging out of my trunk... So i guess im back at it again from the start or well actually not the start only my subs were stolen, idiots left my kicker kx1200. So i was wondering anyone have any ideas on a new sub, i perfer only 1 i use to really like diamond audio, but i always loved to hear the opinions here before i did anything, so let me hear what u guys have in mind |

Gold Member Username: CavsmaximaNew York United States Post Number: 1123 Registered: Aug-06 | ive been alright, just been working a lot and school. There`s really no budget i guess i only want one sub that can be powered correctly by the kicker KX 1200, im looking more for sq then SPL this time. I use to have the s10L7s.... Looks like you have been around a lot more then me i remember when we hit 1k posts together lol. Thanks for the help, i appreciate it! |

Gold Member Username: CavsmaximaNew York United States Post Number: 1125 Registered: Aug-06 | Thanks Yanks im going to look at those links now... And when i said Diamond audio i ment digital designs, i was way off lol. It's been a long time before i looked up subs. |
|
Gold Member Username: CavsmaximaNew York United States Post Number: 1126 Registered: Aug-06 | I like the SSA and the Havoc, the second link didnt work and the fourth link i dont think i want to drop that much money, even though i said no budget lol.... Are both those subs better in SQ then my previous kickers? And how much less power will one of those subs be compared to my old kickers, will it be that big of a difference? Thanks again |

Silver Member Username: •cam•Post Number: 989 Registered: Nov-06 | Here's the link to the Mag. Just from what I've heard, that's the sub I'd go with. Then the Havoc. Only from what I've heard so far. http://www.low-hz.com/commerce/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=23_24&products_id= 35 Email Kevin, if he doesn't post in here, and you might get a deal. |

Gold Member Username: CenusOhio Post Number: 3797 Registered: Jan-05 | are you wanting to buy new or can it be used? i ask cause i know someone selling a crystal cmpx2 would work perfect with that amp get h3lla loud and sound great doing it. |
|
Gold Member Username: CenusOhio Post Number: 3798 Registered: Jan-05 | ohh fvcck never mind, i forgot the kx is 1ohm not 2ohm like the zx models so nevermind on the crystal sub. |

Platinum Member Username: WingmanaliveA pic is worth 1000 posts!! Post Number: 10920 Registered: Jun-06 | The Mag to me is worth the "Bones" but you can find her for less. We're all still waiting on the new line..... |

Gold Member Username: LoudonPost Number: 1912 Registered: Jun-04 | bro a fi q on a kx1200 will be amazing i hit a 140.1 with it sealed in my hatchback maintains amazing sq and it hits pretty hard |

Gold Member Username: CavsmaximaNew York United States Post Number: 1128 Registered: Aug-06 | Thanks for all the suggestions, i really appreiate it. Does anyone have a site for the FI q, the link wont work for me when i click Yanks link. Mike, how many subs do u have, and what size are they or it.

Gold Member Username: CavsmaximaNew York United States Post Number: 1129 Registered: Aug-06 | Just got the site working for the Fi Q, it looks awesome and isnt too expensive either... Would i be able to buy a custom box for it online anywhere? When i had my kickers i bought a custom box and it was much better then the original box i had.. Also im looking to get a 12 inch this time since im only going to buy 1, do i need dual 1 or 2 OHM and also what is BP Power? sorry forr all the questions, i just dont know any of this stuff anymore. |

Gold Member Username: CavsmaximaNew York United States Post Number: 1130 Registered: Aug-06 | You would think id be upset that my stuff was stolen, but im more excited to get something new. |

Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 2862 Registered: Sep-06 | Cavs BP Power=More power handling 200-400RMS more.(I think) Get a Fi Q 12" Dual 2ohm sub and wire it like this to 1ohm. http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/woofer_wizard.asp?submitted=true&woofer_qt y=1&woofer_imp=3 Boxes http://www.fishercustoms.com/ You will like. |

Gold Member Username: CavsmaximaNew York United States Post Number: 1131 Registered: Aug-06 | so paying an extra 40 bucks seems worth it. For the box should i go ported or sealed my old box was ported which i liked but i want more SQ for this setup so i think sealed is better? And what size box do i need... thanks for the help |
|
Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 2864 Registered: Sep-06 | I would spend the extra $40.(But thats me) Sealed Box 1.5cf Vented Box 2.5cf(tuned around 35Hz) I would go with vented. You will like. |
|
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderPalm Beach, Florida Post Number: 5423 Registered: Jan-06 | 2.25cubes at 30hz is what i would probably put the Q in. |
|
Gold Member Username: LoudonPost Number: 1913 Registered: Jun-04 | i ran a 15 inch q ... in a sealed 2.5cuft ... with bout 1400 watts |

Gold Member Username: AdddisorderPalm Beach, Florida Post Number: 5428 Registered: Jan-06 | havocs awesome too |
|
Gold Member Username: CavsmaximaNew York United States Post Number: 1135 Registered: Aug-06 | Chris from fisher customs told me "If you're wanting to maximize the SQ of the Q, then honestly sealed is the way to go. If you're dead set on ported, then I'd tune at 30Hz, tuning at 35Hz will hurt your SQ slightly." What do you guys think about this? Should i still go ported or take his advice and go sealed. |
|
Gold Member Username: CavsmaximaNew York United States Post Number: 1136 Registered: Aug-06 | Anyone have any opinions on the dimensions i should go with on the box, my old box was W 34 3/4 H 15 TD 17 1/4 BD 17 1/4, but that was for two subs, so im hoping i can get something smaller but if i need something big to maximize the output on the sub then thats the biggest i can go. Thanks a lot |

Bronze Member Username: MarcoooPost Number: 21 Registered: Mar-07 | I've got a 12" Fi Q with BP Power and it sounds amazing. As for the box I went with 2.2 cu ft at 32 Hz after looking on the forums at SSA and talking with Scott from Fi. I still got the box design Scott gave me if your interested. |
|
Gold Member Username: CavsmaximaNew York United States Post Number: 1137 Registered: Aug-06 | Yeah mark im def interested, thanks a lot i appreciate it |
|
Bronze Member Username: MarcoooPost Number: 22 Registered: Mar-07 | Could you PM or post your e-mail address for me Cavs as the design was sent as an attacthment and I don't know how to PM an attachment. I'm on my 2nd box now... first was kinda stolen... by the shop that installed my system for me... and they have both sounded great with a lot of air (made my friends hair move a little ) |
