I waited 8 weeks for my DCs. I bought the type Rs while I waited and sold them on craigslist

O dam. I hope it's worth the wait lol question, that amp is rated at 1200@1 ohms. The sub is rated for 1000. How would I go about setting it? I've set regular amps before, I'm scared if I set it too strong, I'll overpower the sub. Another question, is the fi q a paper cone, like u mentioned earlier?

You set the gain with a digital multi meter or a o scope

You can get a DDM from radioshack for $20

Bass boost at 0

375 sub budget, I could ship you this for 385:

That, my friend, is how you do a single 12.

i did some reading, and seen that alot of people say the fi q isn't that great, compared to say the incriminator flatlyne. If i got the incriminator flatlyne ported to 30, would it still be loud? That's my last question for you guys lol also, the flatlyne and the fi q are about the same price when shipped with matching amps for both, so price isn't a problem.
