Subwoofers / Speakers

How much volume is occupied by the mj-18 driver? Are the recommended box volumes the internal volume of the box, or is it the internal volume minus the drivers volume? Thanks

between these three subs..... 1) sid2 12" 2) re sx12" 3 re xxx12" the sub i chose will be pushed by a hifonics bx1500d @ 1 ohm(whooohooo 1500wrms!!) and put into a ported enclosure( recommmended by the manufactor, of course) in the trunk of my wife's grand prix. i am looking for loud and clean and a price in the $300-$350 range. since this is the wife's car, i want to try something different, ie..no JL, rf,treo,memphis,eclipse,clarion,diamond or anything i can get from local dealers. so..any other suggestions? i will be buying in the next week or so! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

first things first, should i order directly from the company or get the subs from a store. So what ive been looking at Ascendant Audio-Mayhem 18, Smd 18, and havoc 18 Fi-BTL 18 Rockford fosgate- Power 12 or 15, punch15 Then for amps i am looking at Soundstream-XXX, Refernce Rockford fosgate-Prime500-1, Punch400-1 I also dunno what are good amps, i alrdy have 10' pioneer subs in the car, and i have a 2005 toyota 4 runner Thanks Sam

I'm running my options and these are to be run of the sub channel of an AX5600 (don't know the exact sub, was told around 6-700w@ 1 ohm) i would prefer the mounting depth the to be 6" and under (preferrably skinnier the better, but if it will proved better performance, im all for up to 6.5. I would like to keep the airspace around 1.5 cubic ft sealed choices so far are (in no particular order): 1 10 or 12" SE 1 12" FI SSD 2 10" FI x1 V2 2 Soundsplinter RL-i 1 2 10" Sundown Sd1's 2 12 or 10" Mach 5 MAW 10's for the RE's i would be staying with the optimal sealed enclosure for the SSD i am staying with the recommended box specs of 1.1 cubes with the Copper coil + soft sp…

what does this motor/woofer compare to something out now? something along the lines of a BL, Death Row? just looking to get an idea of what they are similar to im thinking of making some into 18s

I was wondering what the pros and cons were to having subs face each other? ie would they pressurize the air better? (since both subs are compacting air on a certain point) To answer this consider same number of woofers, and for enclosure type consider straight wall compared to clamshell. thank you in advance for any insight.

What would be a good amp for 2 kicker cvr 2001? Sealed box stock electrical

Im getting ready to buy my first subs, I cant decide on either a 15' or 18' fi bl (price doesnt matter) i want a sub that people can hear from a mile away lol...anyways which would hit harder for my needs?

need help on subs fi btl are xxx for daily driver plz help thank you

its some what shy of 4 ft. the box is currently tuned at 40hz, which i can lower if need be. I am looking for the loudest subwoofers. I am not too worried about SPL but i dont want it to sound like pure shit. I was thinking about l7s, but thought id ask to get others advice. thanks! btw, i need two and would like to stay under 500 but i can change my price a little higher......... edit, just realized i typed SPL when i meant SQ. its time for me to get sleep. lol

what is a good amp to go with the 15? i can spend a total of $600 for amp and sub. does ne one have demensions for a good sealed box?

Im about to buy a pair of lanzar opti drive with the aluminium cone and silk dome tweeter, the power seems to be over rated 200rms/400watts but just want to know, have any one listened to it and can it beat focal polyglass v2?

alright I've been asking alot about differant subs and I'm sorry to bother everyone with it just trying to get info before building for next year. so as the ? says how is the AQ stuff and where can I find specs for them? Do they have a site and or a contact #? thanks

Is there much of a difference between the mach 5 15" ixl vs the ssa icon 15". I know the mach 5 seems to have a good sound quality and im not really to sure about the ssa icon. If anyone could give me a little more info about them like which one would get louder with a 1000 watt sundown audio amp. Thanks.

2 10'' lethal injections 2 10'' Sound Splinter RL-i 2 10'' Cerwin-Vega Vmax 2 10'' kicker l7s Now i would be able to build the recomended box for all. Also i will be using a 2000 watt (max) dhd amp, it could be lowered if need be. Which would be best for spl purposes? thanks for your time!

Ive been told through another post I need to stick to Atomics enclosure reccommendation to get the most out of my APX 18 the enclosure info says sub and port displacement is already figured in their equation which is APX18-ported 6.0ft3 (40six10”long) ( 32Hz)=5000w (SB) So do I figure 6 cubes as if it was sealed then do the port to fit their req.? and I dont know how to read thier port rec. I see a 10" long port, 6" wide, but whats the 40. or is it 6" in height? Please help so I can get this box built! Or if someone wants to give me an easy out and tell me exact outside measurements (.75 MDF.) I have up to 50" in width, 25" in height and 19" depth. Thanks guys!!!

http://cartoys.com/default.cfm/t/Car_Audio...rs/o/Subwoofers Well, as you all might but probably wont know, I have to go to cartoys to get a decent setup. Im getting 4'' in the front, 5 1'4 in the rear, and I want a sub. Now, I want to get all in one thing, so I dont have to bother to upgrade for a while. Hypothedicly, saying I were too, what do you think I should get. I have a rear deck, and in that deck I have a med kit. I can take that out and get a rear deck cover, so thats like a vent for the sound. So eitehr I sink an 8'' in the deck, or I open it up, and get something in the trunk. Odds are good I will go with the trunk idea, then gettin on in the back deck. So, su…

need some help, building a box for two dc LL 4 15,s . I'm ready to install the ports but not sure how long to cut them. I'm using four four inch psp aero ports(only using flare on port exit)subs will be seeing 1000 watts RMS each my box volume after bracing is 7.49 cubes . the psp port calc is giving me 13.68 for a straight length and 14.68 for the flare length not sure which to use wanting tunning to be 33 Hz this will be a daily , not really going for straight spl but want good lows. could some one take a look at this and give me a push in the right direction thanks in advance.

I have a 09 Silverado and I'm thinking about getting something like a console custom built so I can mount my iPad in it. I always have my iPad connected to my radio and I think it will look much cleaner mounted.. but anyway I want to have a set of components installed I'm the console also. how do you guys think it would should and will it be a waste of money to do so? these are the component sets that's I'm most interested in alpine type r sundown sa series comps incriminator audio comps

I've become interested in getting a pair of these but couldn't find the power handling of these anywhere. Does anyone know what their RMS power is? Thanks

I posted something simular to this and it didn't get enough results, so I thought I'de re-frase the topic being I didn't get enough feedback lol. So here we go again lol. A friend of mine is doing a budget system and wants some good coaxle's. He just wants a pair of 3 way 6x9s for the rear and 5 1/4s for his front doors. He has the same car as me but an 03 Corolla and just wants some speakers to power off his deck that'll be able to take a beating and doesn't care about his speakers having much bass being his box does. He just wants something durable. So far the brands we're looking at are JL Audio, Kicker, MTX, Alpine, JBL. The speakers don't have to be cheap. He …

Ive alwased had a pair of 12w6 and all my friends had 12w6. It is an amazing sub but i want something different. Has anyone have any experience with 12w6v2 and the new magnums? I want to switch to magnums but dont know if its a good choice. What are the pros and cons and reliability?

ok i have an older model mj 18 and was wondering what kind of bass response i would get if i ported it in like 3-4 cubes??

Now i need to know what to do with it... Or rather what box size/tuning would be good. As well as how much power it can handle daily. I have about 6ft^3 (before any deductions) total to work with and about 4Kw RMS as well...
