So I have been testing which way sounds the best. Currenty sub firing up is loud as hell. It sounds like there is a gorilla trying to break out pf the back and that is only 1 18 playing at 2ohms.

So after dealing with a noise issue and finding out it was the head unit I said screw it and bought a new one. I have been looking but did not really want to buy one. Well I had $100 to use at best buy so I bought a avh-p3400bh, guess we will see if it is noisy.

Not a solution, but a way to play around to see which way the subs will sound best. Half of that big bitch of a box is easier to carry even with the sub in it,

Yes I did and rca ground loop filters and power supply filter. On the plus side I recheck everything I did for fun. Put the clarion back in and it was like magic. Guess I will see if this new unit interduces noise today.

Alright so after the noise ordeal, glad it is gone, I installed the new head unit. I am very pleased with this thing.Fair amount of processing and crossover selections. Now to decide which way to face the subs and get busy on the box.

Sharp looking h/u.

You can use the single sub enclosure you have now to experiment with subwoofer placement.

If you do not have room for two 18"s I would recone to 15"s. More bang for the buck.

Thanks.

I have been turning the box to see which way sounds the best. I can get both 18's in and may have to use a little polyfill. I can tell you this one 18 feels like you are being punched and I can only imagine what two will feel like.

Alright I have been thinking about my box and I want to be able to remove it when needed. There are going to be times when I need cargo space.

More to come...

Sorry guys no updates today as I was busy cleaning two tanks and carring drywall in the haunt. I hope to cut some wood tomorrow and start building the new box.

Alright I was playing a little bit and turned the sub foward, up, and back and it seemed to sound the same. I had two other guys listening with me to make sure I heard what they heard.

I guess we will see what it sounds like with the second sub added.
