Gold Member Username: SomedonniedudeIllinois Braaap MX Post Number: 2436 Registered: May-07 | He is pushing 15,000w m.s. look at the amp he is using! The all new SAZ-15000D If you are looking for something so sound good, I'd pick the Fi Q over the Bl, but I'm not sure how the Q would handle that power, I've never tried or heard either sub. |

Platinum Member Username: Nd4spd18Philadelphia, PA Post Number: 10104 Registered: Jul-06 | The BL will sound fine. If you want great SQ, then yeah, get the Q, and it has to have the BP option to handle that much power. |

New member Username: TripphxcPost Number: 3 Registered: Mar-09 | I dont know what SQ means or what it is for.... and the bl has to have the option of BP...? |

Platinum Member Username: Nd4spd18Philadelphia, PA Post Number: 10106 Registered: Jul-06 | Q needs the BP option for that much power. |

New member Username: TripphxcPost Number: 4 Registered: Mar-09 | So if i were to upgrade my stock battery would i be good? or would i also have to upgrade my alternator? what kind of battery would i want to buy in order to replace the stock one? i hear people saying red top or yellow top where do i go to buy one? |

Platinum Member Username: Nd4spd18Philadelphia, PA Post Number: 10109 Registered: Jul-06 | No no no to anything optima. That is the equivelent of kicker subs haha. For 1500w an alternator upgrade may be in order. Alternator is the power source, adding batteries does not give you the ability to draw more power and hold proper voltage while driving. Combined with a proper alternator a good battery does help though. Odyssey, kenitik, powermaster, all are good. DB Electrical or MCR for alternators. And don't forget big 3 wiring must be done with an alt upgrade. |
