    enclosure help for rf

    my friend wants me to build him a box for 2 12" rf p1's. right now hes using a pre fab box that is complete garbage. its for his dodge daytona, which is a hatchback, any tips on what size sounds good, or what airspace sounds good for a ported box, or if sealed sounds better with those, because i have no idea. thank you very much
  7. hey guys, i have a jbl amp and on it there is a 2 screws, one of them is bass boost and it goes from 0-12 db, the other is a xover frequency and it goes from 32hz to some high number i cant remember right now, what should those be at? its on a 15" 9500
  8. just looked at the amp and theres a input setting too, how does that work and where should it be?
  9. whats clipping? and how can i tell if mine is? and should the bass boost be set as high as possible without clipping?

    how does fi btl compare

    hey, i have a question, i have one mtx 15 inch 9500 in my truck now and my lease is up and im getting a suv. i want to have a set up that is spl and as loud as possible. so my question is- will it be better to get one more 15 9500 and get a dual ported box and toss it in the back or go with 2 18inch fi btl? I am new to car audio, this system i have now is my first. so alot of things im new to. put the cost aside, im willing to pay a good buck to get a LOUD system i've noticed theres alot of companies out that make subs just as good if not better then the few ive heard of, mtx,jl,kicker. and i figured if meade uses the 18 fi btl there has to be something special about. And if theres any other subs thats you could recommend that are really good please mention them. thanks alot in advance lol

    how does fi btl compare

    i realized that phi lol and earthman i no if i dont go big ill be disappointed, my first system was 2 rf p3s in a 4 door ram, a week later i got the bug and they weren't enough for me, so i got the 9500. i just dont wanna have to do that again, my old box is still in my garage collecting dust and it was used only for a week lol what would you get if you were in my situation?

    how does fi btl compare

    ya that was a really good read, how big of a difference is there between 2 15's and 2 18's? and what kind of electrical stuff would i need? like an extra battery and a cap?
