    I like how the Sundown guy is rocking OG KICKER. Kicker is why I got into car audio way back in the 90s.... those days we ran either punch XLC, KICKER SOLO BARIC or pioneer impp

      If SQ is more your thing, the kicker Q classes will make you happy so does the Sundown U series. A U series still hits pretty hard in a sealed box but you will get a more musical sounding bass than ported or bandpass.

    My older brother used to have a 2006 Altima with 2 kenwood 10 inch subs in a sealed box, not the loudest but it still bumps. I remembered that he blew them by turning the gains to clipping and then he replaced them with mismatched subs. The inspiration from older brother, PSSounds, Fivestar car audio, SMD, and Lifeofprice got me into car audio. I inherited the old subs from my brother and bought an old 500w Jensen amp from a pawn shop because my dad threw out that nice kenwood amp which was very affordable for the output and sound quality you get. Those mismatched budget tens do not sound right and I’m thinking about going with a single twelve, and stay with a sealed and not go ported or BP because I much prefer a musical bass over boomy bass.

    • @cragre28
      @cragre28 3 года назад

      @@Pittsburgh-412 Do you have it bridged at 4 ohms or at 2 ohms? It is stable into a 4 ohm bridged load which is in actuality a 2 ohm load on the amp. What size wire is going to your home circuit and what size brealker is in there. 12 gauge you should have 20 amp fuse at 110 volts. 10 gauge should have a 30 amp fuse. I just hope you don't have 14 gauge, which only allows for a 15 amp max breaker. I have a Crown 1502 running a single Dayton Ultimax 18 in my house and a 500 watt BASH amp running a 15 inch Ultimax off the same circuit with 20 amp breaker. So roughly 2000 watts total, not far off from the 2500 watts you need. Over time breakers can get weak and trip at lower power levels. A new 20 amp or try a 30 might work.

      @@billl2383 solid, would not be a coil. It needs to be a coil. The wire is laminated and carries current around in a circle multiple times creating an electromagnet, that repels the opposing magnet motor. That's how it moves. It has to be a coil to do this trick. Imagine coiling wire around a nail, and Appling 9v battery to the coil ends. You've made a magnet. Now move that towards another magnet and it will push or pull said magnet based on voltage polarity.

    All that money you're turning over and you can't invest in a good f450 or even an f750 to move your heavy loads? Might be worth the time to think about it
