  1. I think maybe you should look for something else. Running a crescendo 3K and looking for numbers, you'd be better off with some SA-12, DC, etc. I hate to turn anyone away from an awesome sub, but your not looking for a great SQ sub. Your looking for a great daily beater, and these arent going to give you what your looking for in my opinion. Ive owned almost every sub Mike (Sound Splinter) has put out, but I think your looking for more SPL.


  2. In the right conditions I've given them 1200-1500, but they don't really need that much. A good 800-1K and these things can get loud and sound damn good doing it too. Also, in the right box/tuning these things are low end monsters. One of my all time favorite subs. :drink40:


  3. well its been awhile, but the only updates i have is that i cant get the back seats out yet, because its just being difficult. lol. Ihavent started the box yet because i have been sick, and just havent felt like driving to lowes. But on a good note i think im going to buy that $200 SAZ 1000d from jacob as soon as i get a response!

    You'll be very happy in the end. I had my 2 RL-p 18"s in a wall tuned to 32Hz and they KILLED the low end.


  4. I'd personally use a ply board instead of a solid one. You also want to bolt the board to the metal of the door and not hang it on the door card.

    This is what I did. That solid piece will make the door very heavy.

    And I did mean to say round over the edges. ;)


  5. Yup, so the speakers could fit and not stick out so far. Just roll your window down all the way first to make sure they will clear without hitting.

    I screwed the door panel to the door first using flathead self tappers because as I mentioned it'll get heavy and those plastic things wont hold. Then I screwed the wooden panels to the door panels.


  6. I cut the flat peice that shapes the bottom of the panel out of 1/4" ply. Then I cut the oval ring out of 3/4" MDF. I used a 5" hole saw to cut out the sheetmetal behind the door panel. Then I put it all together. That was 2 mach5 audio 6.5" running off of a ZX300. It got nice and loud and sounded good doing it too.


  7. I guess it works with down-firing enclosures, the floor acting kind of like the top you are talking about... I wonder if it is o.k. to do this...

    This was my initial thought too........ What would be the difference? I only ask because I have a very similar setup that I thought about doing the same thing to.
