I fail.
Doesn't mean they're not adequate for the application.I did frown on the redlines. Stamped steel baskets don't do it for me

Right, but I wouldn't use them for my application.Doesn't mean they're not adequate for the application.
I dig that word. Here are a couple examples:Who's frowning on the Redline? I haven't used them but I've heard nothing but good. And I saw a ridiculoud number done with them.
(Mispelling kept because it's hilarious. And poignant)
Once again I will say that I would not buy their redline series. Most of the big companies have entry level stuff. You're paying for the brand more than the product or R&D. Many people buy redlines so they can say they have DD.
Smallest DD sub I'd buy is a 3500 if I was going for a SQ system on low power. 9500's if I wanted a reasonably priced trunk build. Probably wouldn't buy the ceramic 9900's with 4" coils' date=' honestly. Z's for anything the 9500's can't do[/quote']
Not calling anyone out so I took out the names of the quote authors, opinions are another reason why I am here - real perspective from real people on stuff I am curious about. There are a lot more here, but it doesn't bother me as I just had no idea they were frowned upon as much as they are.I don't think anything lower than 35XX for DD is worthwhile.
Redlines = loud, low RMS, budget friendly, well built, very reputable company, not RF/Kicker (lol, ex fanboy of both in their good years).

Oh heck...I mean on amps, lead to clipping...??!!??Some HU's have a subwoofer output level...such as my Alpine 9835...which I use.
My amp has a 18db bass boost...which is at "0" and always will be.
Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't bass boost also lead to clipping?
American Bass PH4000MD* and it's not even hooked up yet so I wouldn't know, said I was curious for a reason cause I didn't know. Not cause I need it.let me guess. You arent getting sh*t for output with that vfl 4480.1d?
I wouldn't bass boast the amp ever. I'm a noob, so some of these guys have better incite. But when i tested my Alpine M110 with a scope it would clip with any boast at about any volume from the amp. I have a 8 band EQ built in my HU, and I could go 1-2 DB at 40 and 80 Hz fine at louder volumes (35/40). I currently run -3DB on my 40 Hz, and -2DB at 80 Hz. It gives me a much cleaner smoother sound and it feels like it thumps better too. This allows me to go up to 38/40 cleanly.American Bass PH4000MD* and it's not even hooked up yet so I wouldn't know, said I was curious for a reason cause I didn't know. Not cause I need it.
