Billy 0 Posted September 26, 2012 I ran 2 fi bl 18's 3 or 4 years ago off 2 sundown 1500s in like 15 cubes net. Now I am looking at running them again in a scion xb. I have a box already that is 12 cubes net @ 32hz, how well would the bl 18's do in this box off sundown 3500d? Would it be too small, the site says 5-8 cubes each. thanks for any help 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

07_ZX10 4 Posted September 26, 2012 I dont know how I signed into my old name, it wouldnt let me at first. Anyway the box is 15 cubes total @ 32hz. It has 140 square inches of port 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricksi30 923 Posted September 26, 2012 That sounds like it should be fine. It is on the lower side of airspace, and port area but it should be fine. If you already have it all try it out and see how you like it. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricksi30 923 Posted September 26, 2012 Wait, do you already have the 18's? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
07_ZX10 4 Posted September 26, 2012 well i havent ordered the subs yet, i was down to bl's or another brand and was told the others would work in this box fine. But I really want to go back to FI so, I may try these 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricksi30 923 Posted September 26, 2012 Would you be against getting 15's and building a new enclosure? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

07_ZX10 4 Posted September 26, 2012 if I am building a new box, I am for sure going with bl 18's. I already have back seat out, I had the obsidian 18's in for a little while and decided I wanted to run more power and a small setup. Now I been running aq hdc3 10" off aq 2200d for little while, and starting to miss my 18s. The box I have now, I have few other options for subs. Just trying to decide so I can make an order. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricksi30 923 Posted September 26, 2012 That being said the bl's sound like a very good option. What other drivers are you considering? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ricksi30 923 Posted September 26, 2012 psi platform 2, ia death row/death penalty. dc xlI would strongly advise that you don't go with PSI. The Bl should work great. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
07_ZX10 4 Posted September 26, 2012 thanks for all the help, I actually had alot of people to tell me to go with the psi but I just wanted to go back to fi. I have a psi level 2 12" that used for awhile before i put the hdc3 10 in. Looks like the bl is what I will get and then later I may build a new box if I think they will be better in it 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
07_ZX10 4 Posted September 26, 2012 another option I would have with this box is to run 3 15's, but I really think the 2 18's will be fine in this box. At least until next summer when I have some vacation time, then I may go to bigger box 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
