  1. Thanks. They are the best subs I have owned so far. Have had many compliments on them. Sorry the sound is bad. Video was taken with my Galaxy S3.
  2. The box turned out great and sounds great too. Thanks very much for your help Alton. I will look into bed liner. I am going to build an amp rack also. I still have a few cosmetic things to do but it is almost done. I am uploading a new vid to Youtube playing a little. The mic on my Galaxy S3 sux but most vids of bass don't have great sound anyways. Well, thanks again and keep an eye out for the new vid.
  3. 1st video.....uploading new one of some play time
  4. Haven't had time to play with the position yet. The holidays have been hectic. And, yeah it is pretty loud . I have a friend with one FI btl N2 18 and it seems to be just as loud ...... Hopefully with a little more tweaking I can get it juuuuust right !!!
  5. Thanks. I think it came out pretty good. Still need to figure out what I am going to cover it in. Carpet or grey leather to match my interior ?....
  6. Yessir..... Will post some vids in the next couple weeks. I am getting some good body and door flex.
  7. well, the box turned out great. And it really does sound good. will try and post some pics
  8. thanks very much Alton. I have been sick so I am hoping to start the box this weekend. I will post some pics when I get done. Thanks again. Very much !!
  9. Hey Alton, I am all done with the wiring. Hoping to start on the box tomorrow. If ya have some time I hope to get that design from ya ..... I really appreciate your help !!!
  10. subs just arrived lookin great.......now time for some wiring
  11. sittin around waiting on UPS to get here......yea, I am just a little excited
  12. Oh.....well as you can tell I am still somewhat new to car audio and still learning. Maybe Alton will explain?
  13. If I understand ports correctly, then the length also matters. In this case the port will be 36 to 37 inches long. Correct me if I am wrong.
  14. Ok cool. Then I will go with whatever you think is best for my Tahoe. No testing needed right now. I am going to buy all the materials for the box tomorrow. As I said, the subs should be here tomorrow too .....looks like I might have a long night
  15. UPDATE....... Subs are shipped and will be here tomorrow......I guess I need to get busy
  16. The subs I ordered are SVC. The amp that is on them is a new PPI Black Ice 1800.1. The ohm load should be about 1.34. I saw the quick design you sketched and it looks great. I am wondering if subs up/ port back is better than both subs/port back ? Thanks very much for your help
  17. Tomorrow is 21 days from my order date for the subs. I am trying to get everything ready as I am hoping the subs will ship soon. Thanks for the help The list: Vehicle : 1999 Chevy Tahoe (4 door) Location in the vehicle: Cargo area Space available (Length x Width x Height): 30" x 48" x 21 " Subwoofer make and model: SSA DCON 12 (x3) Subwoofer Size: 12" Number of Subwoofers: 3 Type of Port (Kerfed, Slot, Aero, etc.): slot What type of music do you like?: all kinds (rap,dubstep,country,rock) Is your goal SPL or Everyday Music?: everyday Tuning Freq (Hz): 30-32 hz (the subs Fs is 28.1hz if that would be better ?) Volume : optimal for 3x dcons Questions: What would be optimal for getting loud and still having great SQ ? Would it be better with a single chamber or divided chambers ?
  18. Wondering if you might be interested in designing a box for me to build .....I can give you max demensions if you need them. Again, I am looking for the loudest but also best sounding design I can get. I can send you a few bucks for the design. I know I only have $5 in my Paypal right now. Let me know if you are interested....thanks
  19. Thanks for the input. These will be going in my 1999 Chevy Tahoe. The room isn't an issue at all. I am shooting for getting really loud and get good response with higher and lower notes. In your opinion do you think that this will do the trick ? Or, would you recommend a different box alltogether ?
