    Baffles

    I've searched through the old threads on baffles and there seems to b mixed opionon on whether or not I should install them. So should I or shouldn't I? What do you guys think? If so, should I use foam or PVC, or doesn't it matter? Also, should I cut off the back of the baffles?

    Which sub is best

    The diamond seems to be the best but the TM3 seems hard to get. Anyone know where I can get one? Even my local dealer didn't have them. They only had the CM3. Also, the PG TX10 would match my tantrum amps really well. Anyone hear these subs?

    PG Tantrum 400.4 questions

    So if they are no matter should I still go for the Tantrum? Will it sound better/loader? Be more reliable? I have already ordered my T200.2 for my sub amp and they give a rating of 200W@4 ohms but none at 2 ohms bridged. Can it do this? Also, if I get a 4 ohm sub with a DVC can I run it at...

    PG Tantrum 400.4 questions

    OK. So I don't have to worry about the power dropping too much if the battery isn't putting out enough power. I noticed the Octane owners manual just gives the 14.4 rating. Is there any way I might be better off with the Octane Series (R5.0:4) than the Trantrum? It's about $40 cheaper too:)

    PG Tantrum 400.4 questions

    Thanks. One more question. The owners manual say 4x20 at 12.5V and 4x50 at 14.4V. How do I know what my car is feeding it? How can I make sure it's 14.4V? 4x20 sounds awfully low.

    PG Tantrum 400.4 questions

    PG Tantrum 400.4 questions

    I am about to purchase this amp and have a few questions? 1.) The owners manual says to run 4 gauge wire for + and ground. I have 4 gauge to a splitter, and then 8 gauge to the amp. The ground is 8 gauge. Will this be OK for a 4x50 amp? 2.) After looking at the owners manual, it doesn't...

    Tantrum or Octane

    Sounds nice to me. Jmac, do you remember the size of the enclosure you made for that sub? Also, what were the fronts running at? I'm thinking of 4x50. Will the 250.2 overpower a 4x50?

    Tantrum or Octane

    So would a Tantrum 250.2 to a PG ti10 sub be better than a Xtant A3001 to a JL 10w0? I looking for mostly SQ. Also, anyone know how to get that ti10d deal on thezeb.com?

    Tantrum or Octane

    Anyone??? Was the Octane a replacment for the Tantrum or is it a lower line than the Tantrum was? What would be better, an Octane 4x50(Octane 5.0:4) or a Tantrum 4x50(T400.4)
