    hey guys im buying a new system for my 2004 pontiac grand prix. I was thinking about buying 2 10" AA assassins and putting them in a 2.7 cubic feet box(ported) and powering them with the Hifonics BXi 1610D. Do you think that these are going to get loud and hit pretty hard. Or should i go bigger and get a 12" arsenal in a 1.8 cubic ft box powered by the Hifonics BXi 610. Or finally should i get a 12" Chaos in the same 1.8 cubic ft box powered by the Hifonics BXi 1210D. I dont really want to worry about upgrading my electical system now but i am open to suggestions. Thanks.

    I have an avalanche 18 sitting in my basement unused for the last 8 years. I am going to try to install in my 2008 Buick lucerne of an orion 800@2. I know I can't go ported, but what size sealed would work. I think I can get around 5-6 cubic feet sealed and use poly fill to make up for the lack of size. I cannot find box sizes on any website so I am hoping I could get some help here. Would 5 to 6 cubic feet be enough or should I just find two fifteens instead?

    I'm thinking about 2 12" Havocs and was wondering a few things. 1. What would sound louder, sealed or ported? 2. What would have better sound quality, sealed or ported? 3. What would hit lower, sealed or ported? I'm thinking about ported to 5cuft tuned to 30.5Hz. If sealed I'm thinking about 2.4cuft. If you think they would sound better in a different box size, please inform me. Thank you

  13. So I've got this build log going on. You can check it out HERE. It involves, dare I say, some old school Ascendant Audio Atlas subs. Taking it a step farther, I installed them IB style. Lastly, this is a, get as much bass as I can with 500 watts without losing any trunk space because I'm a sensible family man with financial limits, build. If you're interested check it out and let me know what you think. Here is a couple of teasers. Thanks for looking.

    As the title states I am contemplating designing a down firing box for one 12" Atlas. I have heard this helps increase SPL as well as makes for a stealth install. (no need for a grill) Here is a link to the discussion I had over @ DIY http://www.diymobileaudio.com/forum/showth...ight=downfiring I have also talked with Mr. Marv @ http://community-2.webtv.net/MarvsPlace/MarvsPlace/ Marv has suggested that I look into the following - " There are a couple of things to note however-all subs are not created equal so you definitely want to check with the manufacturer to make sure your sub will not exhibit excessive sag when mounted upside down (from what I understand heavy cone/…
