    Sealed Enclosure Building - Compensate for Woofer Volume

    Simple question, searched and didn't find anything. When I am building a Sealed Enclosure, should I be compensating for the volume of the driver in my calculations? I have a JL 12w6v2 which has a displacement of about 0.07ft³... I want to make an enclosure that is 1.25ft³, so, should I make the...

    Tape Adapter w/ RCA hook-ups?

    you could get some cheap RCAs and mod the cable. Why don't you want to get an adapter?

    Amp cuts out when sub hits hard

    currently there is 8 gauge being run for power and ground... could upgrade to 4 gauge... as I have the wire... just haven't put it in... don't think that will solve the problem... and i'm not putting a capacitor in there...

    the sub is configured in a 2 ohm configuration... the low ohms indicator does not come on, nor does protection

    Amp cuts out when sub hits hard

    So, I recently acquired a JL 500/1 to power my also recently acquired JL 12w6. I have the Big 3 installed in my car with 0/1 gauge wire. When I have my stereo up at about 18 volume (which I'm sure means nothing to anyone, but, thats how high it is when it happens) The sub will hit hard, and...

    If you'll sell in pieces, I might be interested in the 1000/1

    When do you have to start considering an HO amp?

    I am going to be getting a new vehicle ( a fairly new vehicle, made in the past 4 years, a mid size sedan or an SUV) in the next little while, and I want to run an amp that puts out about 1000w RMS (thinking of getting 2 JL 12W6v2s and a Memphis st1000d or a JL 1000/1.) I will likely also, down...

    "Remote" Head unit??

    what about getting an optical audio cable, placing one end of it right up against the HU's IR port, and putting the other end somewhere else... then you could, theoretically, point the remote at the other end of the optical audio cable and press the buttons on the remote. You may want to look...

    JL 10W6v2/12W6v2 Subs

    I don't already have the amplifier, no. I'm gonna start buying pieces of my system now, for my new vehicle which i'll get sometime in the next 6 months... that way its not so much of a strain on my cash flow, haha. What suggestions do you have for less? The 1000/1 is about $600 on ebay... but...

    JL 10W6v2/12W6v2 Subs

    yeah, right, my mistake... wasn't thinking and typing... I meant the 1000/1 Amp... not the 500/1, but i corrected the above post

    JL 10W6v2/12W6v2 Subs

    I see that they are optimized for 400w RMS... the 1000/1 gives 500w RMS to each driver, which is more likely to cause problems in the long run... any suggestions for a Class D 800w RMS amp?

    JL 10W6v2/12W6v2 Subs

    Hey, I am thinking of getting two of either of these... I'm leaning toward the 10W6v2's because I'm not really much of a Basshead, right now I use a Phoenix Gold Octane ZR 12", and getting those over the 12's would save me almost $150. I was thinking of getting two of these with a JL 500/1 Amp...
