Subwoofers / Speakers

i want to get orion h2's, but i dont know what size/what amps/how many/etc.? i was talkin to denim about it and he said to talk to hccafan about it cause he knows alot about orion. i was thinkin either 3 12's or 2 15's but i dont need to give each sub 2000 watts rms, i was thinkin maybe 1000 each on the 3 12's or 1500-2000 on the 2 15's. thanks.

i just got my friend sold on buying a magnum. i was wondering that would hit lower and sound better, a ported 12 incher d2 or sealed 15 inch d2. he wasnts awesome sound quality and wants t hit low well. and hit. the 12 would be ported tuned fairly low, like 20-30 herts i assum

Yep. Every 15" went out the door today at 4:30 PM. I'm going to do my best to get back to everyone through email tonight with the tracking numbers, but I can't make any promisses.

Could use a lil trim though..... She seems to like gold You look Loyd'esk in that pic Scotty.... Scott....3 words... Gillete...Mach....Three (The turbo is worthless )

Couldnt help but to ask. Box ready, amp mounted to box, 4 gauge flowing everywhere, trunk is fully Dynamated (Xtreme), CDs are burned and car is clean. I going with another 12" and maybe the 307 component set. I am not sure if I can fit that stuff on my door panels.

what differences would i notice with a 12 inch with these differnt box sizes, 1.0CF, 1.3CF, 1.5CF would i loose any sound quality or puchiness as i went bigger? i ask becuase i found a way to make a bit more space in my truck and as you all saw my box design in another post it ended up around 1.25CF after displacement. if you think it will make a "good" difference i can crank it up to about 1.3-1.4CF after displacement.

Monday turned out to be nice so I decided that I would tackle the task of removing the rear speakers.I cant believe the buzzing & rattling that was caused by all the bass being trapped in the trunk.Well I must say theres a big difference ,I feel alot more bass coming in and filling the cabin.Just incredible what 1-12 can do if installed correctly and given the right power.It took me 1 1/2 hrs to remove the deck speakers and if I wanted to put them back aleast the process would go alittle faster(I hate molding fasteners).Anyone with a '02-'04 Camry needing help with an installation,Holla,I'm ur boi!.....I think I need a massage :thud:

Good enough?!!!! The inner dimensions are approximately: Height: 12.5" Depth: 11.5" Width: 19.0" Overall volume is somewhere around 1.58 cubes before displacement.

THAT'S RIGHT!!! Magnum 15's are IN STOCK as of 9am PST. Shipping of pre-ordered drivers start TOMORROW...all should be shipped out by Thursday. Hold on to your panties! (12's due in at the end of the week)

is the PG tantrum 1200W too much for a magnum 15'' D2? I've seen some birthsheets that have 1500+ watts on this amp. I want real nice SQ in this setup any other suggestions under $400 for an amp? thanks.

My enclosure engineer keeps on insisting to make it 1.25 cubes. Couldn't break every1's advise here to go 1.5 after displacement. WTF is he recommending 1.25? This fukker is also not concerned about the thickness of the MDF, I cant remember how many times I reminded him to make it 3/4" inch. How thick are they usually? If it requires trimming to make it 3/4" of an inch, that f00ker probably wont even bother. =\ I think Ill get another one from Gnome. What is his site's URL?

Hey, I was wondering what the cones are made of? It looks like a pulp paper cone? If so, I take it they are holding up ok? Was it picked because of the light weight? Also wondering how I would wire 2-12's if I decide to go with them. I have a memphis mc1000d and wiring it to 1ohm gives you about 1100 w. So with 2 ohm d.v.c. I can only get 2 ohm and .5 ohm right? Does anyone know what the actual resistance is for the d2's wiring to .5 ohm. Like does it actually read .8 or like .3? curious because all the subs I have had never read exactly the correct ohm load. I don't want to have to buy a new amp to go with the mags. thanks.

Thinking of getting a line driver to get a bit louder. My amp is an Alpine MRVF340 (V12). How much can this amp take from my head unit's pre-outs?

Go here, http://www.stereointegrity.com/order.html That pretty much explains it all.

Nick, please give some guidelines on how to properly wire your D2 to this amp.

Hey dude.. I'm not sure if this thread is appropriate(I apologize if it isn't) and I know your probably really busy testing/packing magnums and whatnot, but I just wanted to see if you'd gotten my email that was sent wednesday night. It was sent from [email protected]. I sent the email regarding ordering a 12' D2 and paying with paypal.. needing the email addie to send payment to. Please let me know something soon man, no rush though, I know you have alot to do.

All this hustling & bustling with enclosures,has ne1 tried a free-air install with the Mags?At one time I tried it with a eD12O,it sounded OK but it didnt have enuff output for my taste.Maybe 2-12's would've done it, anyhow I think I read that some of u are going free-air,I would definitely like to hear ur input.NO Nick,I'm not plugging my Mag into a wall socket nor am I doing any free-air test tones(LOL),just wanna know how they would do in this type of setup.So with that said lets get out the MDF and start cutting out those baffles! :boink:

Will this be good enough for a Mag 15"? I want it real tight.

If Nick says it is punchy and tight, then let my town rain with 15" D2s. Any1 here want to justify why they would go for a 12"?

I'm tired of guys posting topics about what subs are louder than anothers, it's not about what company,brand or whatever sub you have that makes your drivers loud @ all , same goes for amps. The key to have a successful system in your ride is first matching your amp to your subs, since I've been out there seeing what guys are putting in there cars I've noticed that alot of people are just slaping any'ol thing without doin the needed research to find out what they really need.. I've put together a few systems enough to know how it's done, the first thing is choosing a amplifier that suits your needs, I've seen systems with 250 watts smash all over guys with 800 to 1200 wat…

who has gotten to play with this beast???

Is a JL 500/1 be enough power to really pound my mag 15'' D2? Also is there any other amps with comparable features/sq as the 500/1 for a less price and maybe a few more watts? I really like the 500/1 and have got many positive reviews. Does anyone have a birthsheet on one of these puppies?

Now everyone knows that LR posted his free box of the week on CA and it looks good to me but then again i dont know much about it, he does. is 3.2ft^3 big enough ? hes got it tuned to 32 and that seems so much easier when you have all of the cutout sizes laid out for you in that diagram. im thinking i might want the tuning more at say 29 but im not sure. i was going to go sealed for the easiness of the construction versus ported but im lookingat my options as of now. anyone care to comment?

i'm building my new crx style box for my dd 9515 2-morrow. i wanna know what i should tune my spl port too.i have it designed for 50hz right now,but i wanna wait and get some peeps opinions on it 1st.i will be building a 36hz daily slip for the box also. i'm gonna call digital designs in the morning and see what they think. thanx guys. charles :thud:
