    get the q1... not something off ebay... to much bs with it. and the dc xl would be good in 1.5 to 2 cubic foot box (after displacement of the sub and port area) and probably tuned to like 33 Hz

    Getting First Subwoofer - Advice?

    If you just want to drop all $600 on a good sub go to soundqubeds big brother... the DC subs are made by the same guys as soundqubed but are basically the higher line (kinda like lincoln to ford in the car world) you would have to call DC to be sure but im almost positive the DC XL 12" would be...

    Getting First Subwoofer - Advice?

    It should put out 1100 watts rms at 2 ohms but you can ALWAYS run it at 1 ohm and set your gains properly so that you aren't pushing all 2200. Batteries are not the same size easiest way to know what will fit is go physically measure your battery length, width, and height and find a battery that...

    Alright guys so i have had 2 powerbass xl 10s (seperate times) in the past but blew both of them due to wanting more (i realize distortion probably had a factor that is already fixed) i have limited space (only about 2 and a half cubes before displacement) it looks like i could possibly fit a...

    Will the buzzing hurt my speakers?

    Well... seeing as almost all head units distort at high volume it could very well be that.

    Speaker Question

    Tell your friend that his Walmart speakers will blow faster than an Asian hooker after being given $5... He needs to at least get a decent pair of speakers ie powerbass, alpine, pioneer, infinity, etc. If he gets the Sony xplodes or something that is exactly what they will do EXPLODE
