  1. I am in the middle of redoing mike singer's dora the explora(05 ford explorer).  Subs have not been finalized yet.  Tantric md 15, Sundown Sa-15, and American Bass XFL 15 are the front runners at this time.  Original build was 12 XFL 15d4s on 3 ab 750.1s.  He got 15k clamped and 160.9 at 47 out of it.  I am trying to go with more 4th friendly subs and more efficient amp set up.


  2. Build is already complete.  Mike Singer designed and built it for xfls.  Sealed section is only 1.25 cubes sealed per 15.  The xfls worked well just trying to find a more 4th order friendly sub to help with efficiency.  Build did a 160.9 on 15k clamped.  Just trying to see if a more friendly sub will be better.  I want to try and get my power down to around 12k.


  3. Do you think its worth it to try that or just stay with 4 15s?  I think the wow factor would be to keep the batteries and the amps were they are and still get enough space to run the 18's.  I am not going for numbers just demos, but I would like to put up a decent number when I do meter.  Legal I am at 150.7 at 43 hertz.  I would love to get that up to 153 or so that is why I want the 18s.  I don't think the 15s will be about to get there.


  4. Thanks Mr. Jarrell for the response.  Sencheezy (my local dss team member) informed me that it would be about 3 to 4 months on the wait for ethos.  I would love to go with tridents, but budget does not allow at this moment.  I think the ethos will be a major upgrade for a lightweight like myself to step up to a much better sub.  I am currently running 6 american bass xfls.

     

    Current box measures 48w x 30d x 22h.  Absolute max is 53w x 45d x 22h to keep it below the window line. Max depth will be adjusted for space between port and rear hatch as needed.

     

    Current box port is 12.5 inch octoport with 6 inches of space from port to tailgate. Port is 19 inches in length tuned to about 31 hertz.

     

    Right now I have batteries and amps mounted in front of the box that takes up about 8 inches.

  5. I have a 99 yukon denali (aka tahoe)  that I want to upgrage to 4 dss ethos 18s.  I currently have 6 xfl 12s on 7k in a 12.2 cube net box. I have about 7 inches of space between the port and the back door.  Do you think I can get 4 18s in this space or should I stick with going 4 15s?  Currently I have my batteries and 2 amps behind the back seats as well.
