I been havn my system for 4 months...i didnt even get time to make a vid (

have well I had 4 18 hdc3 coppers on 4 hifonics bxi-2608ds

theyre still playn but makn da rattle sound...

my uncle brung my truck back after havn too much fun with my subs...did this happen because he wasnt watchn da clip light on da maxxlink (is it even reliable?)

or because im cheap and have been running da amps on little to no power inturn death by clipping I have one shuriken battery and 1 300 amp alt...

SOooo? where can i get recones and how much is it gonna cost me? i gotta do all four huh? since i hear aq is using new spiders ur sumn...

also my subs dont play as low as i think theyre capable of_well they play low but not creating dat hard to breath sensation...

my wall is tuned to 36hz and the box is 25 cubes...

could dis be coming from me not having enough battery to back the amps? ive had 2 15s in a prefab create more pressure n the same truck on one bxi 2608d than all 4 put together...shyt carries though.... i just wanna get things right dis time around the bass i had was alright but wasnt what i was hoping for...

wondering should i switch subs as ive heard AQs dont produce lows with authority

sorry for the long post minds scattered right now had a bunch of ?'s ...Help me

Nothing to do with the "newer" generation. Spelling is spelling. I stopped reading your post after, "I been havn."

Exactly. I am 21 as well and when I talk you can actually understand it.

lolwut?

Yes you clipped the **** out of the subs I am sure. If your car audio skills are as bad as your English skills, I am surprised they lasted this long. It is not rocket science. If you get them reconed, you will need to turn your gain down or add some batteries. One battery on that much power is not a good combination.

That's an improvement, so I'll lend a hand. If AQ is using a new spider pack, you'll probably want to recone them all. But call DJ, he probably has a better insight than I do. 4 2k+ amps on a single alt and 1 battery? Add about 3 batts, maybe 4 and you should be good. Invest in a voltmeter to make sure things don't cook. Keep going like you're going and the amps will be fried. Also, post pics of your setup. 4 18"s on 8kw in a wall should be loud as hell, maybe we can point out an area where you'll gain.

You'll have that on big jobs. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

And yes that setup should be extremely loud. I know maxx-links are pretty touchy. I would ditch it and run one amp straight to each sub. Just be sure to match amp output.

i'll re-cone you subs better than stock AUDIO QUE with an 8 layer flat-wound Aluminum coil and a cone that is heavier which favors the Low end you seek

What are the box specs? Is it actually sealed off? Hard to tell from that picture.
