I am in the process of building my car and I am wanting to do something different. I started out with 3 solox 12's but traded them for 2 solox 18's. I have 4 crunch Gp3000d's to use but I only have 18 cubes total to use. So i thought of using only one solox 18 with 2 GP's in a 4th or 6th order bandpass enclosure. This is for daily and maybe a once in a while bass race/street beat run. Would it be better to run 2 18's ported or one in a bandpass? If a bandpass how big sealed and ported.

I have a Soundstream Reference 500sx rated at 500 watts in 1ohm & 2ohm, is there a difference in sound quality in the different load and what about subs, does it make a difference in sound quality if you have a dual 1ohm or a dual 4ohm sub wired at 2ohm load are there any differences in sound quality.

Hi folks. I just picked up a pair of L7 10's to go in my single cab 06 Sierra. I would like to go ported if I can make it play loud and hard enough over a sealed setup to be worth while, however I am not sure as to what my best bet would be in terms of porting for this. The enclosure dimentions will be18"Hx57"Wx7D which is good for 2.91 cubes if my math is right. I've been running 1 12" powerbass L12 in a 2 cubic ft ported enclosure with the sub behind the pasenger seat and one 4" port firing up from the top on the oposite end and it has sounded pretty decent, but I want to run more power and get louder and due to mounting depth issues a more substantial higher power ha…

I have 1 06 Kicker L715 in a ported box in a 2004 Isuzu Rodeo. Im gonna build a new box first the measurments are Build the enclosure to internally measure 5.0 cubic feet. Use a port opening that measures 50 square inches (3" X 16") and a port length that measures 15" deep into the enclosure. Im looking for a little sq but mostly spl. Its goona be tuned to 33hz. Is that good for what im looking for. My amp is a KX1200.1 and its wired down to 1 ohm. Thanks for any input

I've had some crappy 12's (MTX RoadThunder) and a 500 watt Bazooka amp since I was 16. I just got a new job and wanna go big. I have a friend who has a DD 10" (2510 I think) hitting 139 db on music with 700 watts. Even though I have more money to work with, I need to keep it as cheap as possible. I really want a 15 and however many watts it takes to get loud as fuck without blowing the sub. -I was looking at FI Btl but its a little high -I know DD is good -I don't know anything about Incriminator. -people have mentioned RE the only ones of these I've seen in action is DD. This is not an SPL build, just a daily driver that I want to be louder than the crap I have now. …

Has anyone ever used it? How does it work? Is it worth $17. I want to spray the inside and possibly outside of my sub box with it but I don't know if it is worth it. Should I just get some spray on bedliner in a can and use that instead? I was hoping it would created a better seal and add strength to the box.

I want to redo my system AGAIN and I'm slowly stackin parts to get it all ready... I have most of the wiring (RCAs, lots of 0/1, 4 and 8 ga wire, tons of connecters, etc ) most of the major stuff (I have 2 sets of RE XXX Componets, the 4 12" RE XXX D2s older style, 1 SAZ-2000D, buying 3 more and I guess I need 2 SAX-125.2s for my Mids and Tweets), now my biggest problem is how to fit it all and make it all look cool..

I have been searching around and just can't seem to get a good enough grasp on these so hopefully somebody here can help me. I'm building a box so after the displacement of everything it will be 3cuft. I will be running two Audioque HDC310s D1 and want to tune the box to 35 hz. So my question is how many ports? How long? What diameter? I just don't want to screw this up and have port noise or inefficient ports. I was also wondering if I could just get pvc pipe from a local hardware store and use that and buy some flares online to save some money. Thanks in advance!

Why is it that some companies suggest a larger box for Fart boxes then others recommend smaller boxes for Fart boxes? What's the difference? Why would a large box work for one sub and not another and vice versa?

Okay guys hope this is in the right spot! I didnt want to post this in the fabricators thread but anyways here we go. I'm wanting to purchase a box design for 2 12 L7's. The only dimensions that matter is I dont want it over 20 inches tall and over 48 inches wide and 16 deep. I dont want to do a basic slot port or aero tuned port. I'd rather do a TL or something of the sort. All I want to purchase is the design not the box guys. Something cool and out of the ordinary. Thanks in advance guys!

hey all been looking to make a t-line for a large scale project but wanted to start off with something small in case it doesn't turn out so well. now i no the port area has to be the same as the subs cone area, and the length is the speed of sound divided by the fs of the sub then divided again by four. but ive been told some have a common chamber and some don't and also im trying to figure out how to tune it or can you only tune it to the fs of the sub? any help would be greatly appreciated and ill let you guys know how it turns out once im done thanks mike E

I have a number of questions that I was hoping someone with experience can answer. I'm currently running a 15" BTL off 1600 in a 4 cube enclosure at 33hz. I feel like I don't have enough port area- i'm using one 6" aero which gives me 28" of port and 7" per cube. Do you think i'd have a noticeable difference by switching to a larger 8" port? I already bought the port, but don't want to destoy my old box if there wont' even be a noticeable difference. I'm hoping to achieve better lows...I figure that my larger port will give more output/peak at my tuning frequency of 33hz, hence giving me a better low end. In doing so, i'll also gain slightly more volume in my box (…

I'm gonna be trying a lot of things and reporting what does and doesnt work. Unfortunately, i can't post back everything as the wall and corners have already been made. What i will be focusing on is head unit settings, amp settings, port area, port length, port angle, car seal jobs, car bracing, car mods, internal box coating, etc... As of right now, i did discover something rather interesting- The difference between playing a sine wave vs a square wave on the meter using a TLab. At low volume, a got a reading of 140.2 using a sine wave. At the same volume, i got a reading of 142.1 using a square wave. Now, when ran full tilt and clipped- SQUARE wave- 147.2 SINE wave - 14…

Just finished an install on my 95 probe. Put a DD 3515 in 3.5 cubic foot (after displacement) box with 2 - 4" aeroports at 17.75". Hooked to a RF 1000a2. Box is a standard CRX design. I've been toying with box placement and right now its sub up port to the side. Sounds decent, but a friend had this exact setup in his 98 Explorer and it was quite a bit better in there. So I'm assuming the problem is related to box design, tuning or placement. Any suggestions??

Not owning a meter I have not gotten to do much testing. My SPL comp runs have been as much for testing purposes as for fun. I have done 3 testing sessions not in comps. and the 1st 2 were in between comp runs for 20-30 mins each and then yesterday I finally got a chance to do some rigoris testing for a few hours. Here's what I learned helps my TC get louder: 1. a. Passenger seat all the way forward as if some one was getting in back seat of my 2 door, a funny thought cuz I made my car a 2 seater with a massive enclosure. b. The back of the seat all the way forward. I have a pic. of this if any1 is having a hard time visualizing, but its a common practice with db-dragg…
