150 on music goal

Recommended Posts

hey guys i was wondering if yall could help me out on my goal. I want to get to 150 on music daily/ground pounder or as close as i can get to 150 with the amount of space and power i have. To start off with i have a 275 amp Ohio generator alternator, most likely i am going to buy 1 or 2 xs d3100 batteries. Thats what my electrical is going to consist of. So for the amp i am go to buy a saz-3500. Now for subs i would have a budget of $700-$800 and i have about 8ft^3 to work with and thats after port and bracing displacements. I would also like to tune my box between 32-34hz as i listen to mainly nothing but rap music. let me know what yall guys have in mind.

First thing that comes to my mind is a couple of BL 15's. 4 SA-12's sound like they would work well too. If you could up your budget a little bit i would say two btl 15's though. Are you planning on competing at all?

150 on music is very possible sub wise i would say ssa xcons 15 0r 18 would be a good choice and match with the amp u have :drink40:

Yeah the 4 sa-12's would be good the only thing is I have enough cubes but they won't all fit where I want them :(. The bl 15's do you think they would work with a box around 7.5ft^3? And the btl's won't I need more power? And idk I'm thinking of competing.

Seems like the xcon's are the way to go.

Install is going to be a significant part of getting to 150db!

Cone and port area are the key!

There are a lot of quality choices out there. The SSA Store carries some very good candidates and other vendors on the forum have great options as well!
