Sounds good to me!! I must gather a few bucks to buy mdf, jigsaw, glue, screws and more and start messing with wood. I never made a sub box in my life, never work on wood, but its a matter of time because I want to learn. So thats my plan for 2012, make a box for those sweet looking Dcons ...thanks guys!!

How low can two 10" Dcons go?? I wanna make a ported box tune to 30hz but I listen to a lot of hip hop, dnb and dubstep. So, I want them to hit low, to vibrate my car pretty good(94 Corolla sedan). The power is 500w rms.

I would shrink that box down a little if you can. 2 cubes is the Max sealed recommended box size for the li 15. With that being said , since you only have 500 rms, its not going to hurt if the box is slightly bigger than recommended size.....just reduce it by half a cube or so and it will be fine. Thanks man!!

Hey IA2, I got a similar question. Do you think a 2.7 cuft sealed box is way to big for a Lethal 15" with a Crossfire VR401(500wrms)?

Thanks!! :-)

I have a 2.7 cu.ft sealed box and I looking to buy a Alpine m500 mono amp(500w rms). Good choice for a 15" DCON, or too much power and little or too much box volume? No ported cause I don't have enough space.

My car is a 1994 Corolla. I did this today: I ground my head unit to the battery and at high volumes the hu display dimmed. I take it out and ground it to the metal in the engine compartment and the dimming stop. My amp is grounded to the chasis. Is a low powering system but the fuse rating of my amp is 60amp with an alternator of 70amp. I want it to reduce the voltage drop in a simple and cheap way because is a cheap sound system. No need to replace my alt nor adding a second battery, worhtless. Thas why I bring this topic, thanks to all of you :-)

If I have one battery, is a good or bad idea to run the negative cable from the amp to the battery? Did the chasis have more resistance than, let say, 14ft of 4 gauge cable? I'm asking that because I read that grounding the amplifier at the battery minimize voltage drop, don't know if that is true.

In that case I guess an SA-15 would be your best bet. They perform well in small enclosures. I'm not sure what your goals are for the system, but they may work. Sorry to have potentially misled you. Don't worry. Thanks!

Luke.H....my space is limited. Don't have enough money to make one, nor the tools and skills. What about the RE Srx sub?? Seems to be in my range $$$ but is close to be the entry level.

There are some subs brands that recomend from 2.5 to 3.5 cuft....I'm in than range

Like AC said, limited space

I'm been looking for a 1 15" sub dvc 4 ohms that require a small ported box. My ported box is well constructed and I don't want it to throw it away. Is a 2.89cu.ft .75 Birch slot ported. I only have 400w rms for it. Any suggestions?

I have a 2.89cu ft ported box tune to 38hz and I'm waiting to see if that box is good for the 187 but if the 15" is no longer to be sell I may have to look at another brand.

I was told that the 15" 187 series is going to be discontinued, because the most selling sizes are 10s and 12s. True or false??
