i just ordered my IDQ's after hearing them the other day i was sold and had to pick them up!

go with the IDQ u wont be dissapointed

 

Did you run one 10" or one 12" IDQ ?

 

i ordered 2 10" IDQ's

 

Personally, when I seen these 2 videos I was sold on FI.

I run one FIQ12 in the rear.



Four FIBL 18's x 17000 Watts.....

so that sub is 2 ohm and 600 watt rms
the amp is # 1 ohm stable
# 600W x 1 RMS at 1 ohm
# 300W x 1 RMS at 2 ohm
# 150W x 1 RMS at 4 ohm

so do i just wire the sub to a 1 ohm so i can have the amp to push 600 watts?

not familiar with ohms

so this is pretty much in between a W6 and W7?
I know this stuff is cheaper but does it have the same quality as a JL audio? as in will this sh*t blow in a month?

 

I remember i had a alpine type r its rated 500rms
but how come my friend had a JL audio w6 rated at 400rms his sh*t hit harder than mine?

does watts matter or is it the way the sub is made and box etc?

its like saying i have a 1000+whp civic and i run 10s

 

Box plays a very big role, vehicle does also. You could have a hatchback vehicle with very little power, sound a whole lot louder then a trunk vehicle with double the power. Everybody already recommended you some very good options. Another option that I have not yet seen posted was Resonant Engineer Audio (RE Audio). They make some great stuff also. But FI, IDQ, Stereo Integrity are all great brands. You like it loud, or you want it clean?

 

I have 2 re sr's. Great all around sub! Im probably gonna order a few other brands of subs in the next month just to swap around and play with.

 

Wire the sub to 1 ohm and the crossfire amp that I mentioned will put out a 'rated' 600 rms watts at 13.8 volts. Probably about 15% more at 14.4 volts.

OOOOhhhhhh the misinformation on the interwebz has you all mixed up. JL is nice, but PLEASE do not put them on a pedestal. And I can't believe you are asking if AudioPulse is close to the same quality of JL. AudioPulse is the retail brand name for TC Sounds. TC Sounds has been a build house for some of the world's best subs for many many many years. Example.....the titanium Eclipse subs from about 10 years ago that were the **** for their time - remember those? - well they were built by TC Sounds for Eclipse. TC Sounds used to build subs for a lot of brand names that you have heard of/bought over the years (depending on how old you might be). The AP Epic (cheaper one) is a great SQ sub that will play deeper and cleaner that a w6. The Revo will just destroy a w7 in pure spl applications and will sound cleaner (keep in mind the w7 is NOT a SQ sub). And we won't even discuss the Axis or LMS-Ultra because JL doesn't make anything comparable. Of course the enclosure and tuning have a lot to do with a system, so my comparisons are moot if one does not take the time and effort to properly enclose and tune the driver.

i would run either above mentioned driver in the ZEN under strut
you will want a dvc 4 ohm driver , and run it at 2 ohm load
easy on your electrical
better SQ at 2 ohm than 1 ohm


off of this at 2 ohm

and this on your mids & highs

and these in Nazar's pods the XXX series


you will be way better off than JL

 

yella, sorry if i sounded harsh above.......I think someone peed in my cheerios this morning

 

more of a clean sound

yeah i remember titanium eclipse... what is a SQ sub and SPL applications?

 

so i should look for a 4 ohm speaker and wire it for a 2 ohm so it'll be easier on my electrical?

What is sq?

I want good clean/loud subs more of a clean sound its gonna hit hard anyways

 

naw you didn't sound harsh, didn't care because you help me out already...and i know you know your audio stuff.

 

if SQ = sound quality
is what your looking for , and i think you are ,based as JL Audio was your starting point

then you will get a bit more SQ at 2 ohm than 1 ohm

so if your final load is 2 ohm , buy a 4 ohm DVC driver so that you get a final 2 ohm load

the amp i am recomending does 800 watts at 2 ohm and will match nicely with the drivers i posted

also the 2 ohm load is easier on your z's electrical draw

 

yes I want GOOD SQ lol
DVC Driver? thats on the sub right? like buying a 4 ohm sub or 2 ohm sub?
have you heard this setup before?
