Q's with BP have an aluminum plug in the pole vent of the back plate..

O, ok. you wouldn't happen to have a pic would you? or anyone else?

 

[tooshort_128 10+ year member]

anyone?

No don't have any pics..

If you look up through the pole vent in the motor and it looks black (use a flashlight) then it does not have BP

If you see a silver color...then it has it.

Great! thanks.

Do you think a Diamond Audio 1200.1 be okay for a Q without BP?

Yep

I just don't want to spend all that money on a sub then blow it. I'll probably get 1300rms out of the amp and the gains will be set correctly with a DMM.

Don't let it bottom out, and if you smell coil turn it down.

The Q can easily handle that power

good to know....I'll also probably have my subsonic set at something like 25Hz. Does that sound about right?

 

[NDMstang65 10+ year member]

Should set it 3-4Hz below the tuning of your enclosure.

Thanks!

oh cool. I didn't know that. so 28Hz it is since my 2.5cuft box is tuned to 32. Thanks fellas
