Alright, Got the Ascendant Audio 8 inch subs and installed them in sealed boxes. My question is where should the settings be on my amp(Hifonics BX1000D)?? The adjustment knobs are labeled: subsonic, bass eq, low pass, phase, and level.---???

Anybody have any suggestions?--Downward firing or Upward firing???

I will have the 8 inch Assassins in their own sealed box under the front bucket seats in my Jeep. My question is , should they be downward firing(into the floor) or upward firing(into the seat)???

Yea, I like the Assassins too. But will my amp be too much power for them? Amp is rated for 700 watts rms @ 2 ohms x1. Amp will be seeing a 2 ohm load from the 2 subs.--???

Going to get a couple of 8 inch subs because of limited space in my truck. Each one will be in their own sealed box. My amp is a Hifonics BX1000D mono. Looking at either Ascendant Audio Assassins (they are single 4 ohm woofers) or Elemental Designs 9kv.2's (they are dual 4 ohm woofers). ???-Any...

The minimum setting on the subsonic filter is 15 Hz and the maximum is 35 Hz. So at 35 hz it is turned all the way up to the max, Is this right?

Anybody have any idea what the amp settings should be set to??

Hows about Subsonic, Bass Boost and Lowpass adjustments? Long thread here, for a refresher: Single type-r in a ported box,2.0cu.ft.@35Hz,with a Hifonics bx1000d amp. Wondering about settings on the amp for this set-up.

I listen to mostly hard rock/metal.

Just made a slot ported box using one of moe lesters plans- 2.0 cu.ft.@35Hz. How should the settings on my Hifonics bx1000d be set at for this? Lowpass?Subsonic?Bass Boost?

I don't want to attempt to build a ported box so I am thinking about getting another type-r and building a sealed box for 2 12's. The amp is a Hifonics bx1000d rated at 1000 watts @ 1 ohm. Also the amp has 2 positives and 2 negatives for speaker outputs. The subs are dual 4 ohm. Can I wire the...

Which one of Moe Lesters plans would you recommend? I want it to be small so I can save some cargo space. What do you mean by tuning it to whatever Hz, Is it tuned just by the design? If this don't make my type-r hit better, I am going to try a different sub in a small sealed box . If so, Any...

Never attempted to build a ported box before, any suggestions on a sub that would hit hard and tight in a sealed box? Or I guess I could attempt to build a ported box,--Any ideas on where I could get some plans on making such a thing??

Also settings on the amp are: lowpass about 80 Hz ; subsonic at 0 ; Phase at 0 ; bass boost at 0 ; gain about halfway(4 volts)

Supposed to put out 450 @ 4 ohms ; 750 @ 2 ohms and 1000 @ 1 ohm
