    Blown Sub??

    Hey Guys, I'm In Sort Of A Dilemma.. I Just Don't Know If My Sub is blown or if my Enclosure has an air leak or something.. I made a Long TEMPORARY Enclosure for my 2 15' Orion HCCA .. no bracing no fiberglass on the inside and on certain songs it sounds like AIR is leaking or something it just sounds bad....but only on certain songs.. now my concern is are my subs blown or is it the shabby job of an enclosure that i threw together...(and when i say shabby i mean i didnt take the time to seal the inside with fiberglass or etc etc etc)

  14. Hey I'm looking at 2 MA Audio Amps... on this amp it has a sub sonic, bass boost, LPF, and GAIN I know i turn down the bass boost, and the GAIN all the way down while setting gain.... but do i need to turn down the sub sonic and the LPF? and what exactly is LPF.. thank you!@
  15. duh LPF = low pass filter lol...
  16. Hey Guys I'm some what new to car audio so please bear with me and be easy on me (I have searched and still cannot find the answer...) well to clarify my case even further I'm an car audio enthusiast but I've never done my *OWN sub and amp install and stuff i only put in my deck,cd changer,etc etc.. so yea =/ still novice at this!!) (first 2 system installs amp, and subs were done by a local shop big ass rip off I paid more than 900.00 Each time, I Want To Try Setting Up, And Installing My Own System (amp/subs) so i can save some money...) Replaced My Battery...and (attempted to do a BIG 3, found the thread and all but got confused so Chickened out :'( was trying to view the photos but eh no luck i'll try again later though..) I replaced my Alpine CDA-9820XM deck with a Alpine IVA-D100 Got a Great deal on it locally so i snatched it up..... Anyways Back To My Confusion!!! My Friend offered to build my box tuned at either 35hz or 37hz... so immediately I said yes sweet build my box.. made the proper measurements based on the subwoofer and this website here.. then he popped the most random question ... "Do You Want Two, Or Just One Speaker Terminal Cup?" I didn't know what to tell him so i told him to hold off on the box until i figure out so this is my problem do i need one or two? I attached an image hopefully it will explain my confusion and bring forth the answer clearly.. Is my wiring even technically correct?

    Help! 3rd System Same Truck.

    to be honest i really dont know.. if i could design and make boxes myself i would do it on my own but i lack experience in the technicals of building boxes and stuff i know where to get the stuff from just yeaaa i can see it falling apart very quickly... I have a 1998 Dodge Ram 1500 Pickup Quadcab.. im removing the Cab back seat trying to wall or have the box built to fit in there....
