enclosure for a 12" BL
here is the box that i am currently using. the tuning is actually 34 hz, even tho it says 32 and the 3.5 cuft is supposed to be 2.5, just a few typos. lol
-
What subs shoud i get?
the bl would suit you nicely, but the BTL's will get louder. plus youd be able to use all of the power your sundown outputs daily, without really putting much stress on the subs at all!

how do you curve MDF?
I know you have to put slits in the wood, but how do you know how deep and so on, is there some type of formula? I know i read it on here some where, but i just cant find it.... Thanks,

my first USACi Sanctioned event
i dont think an ac mic will show you where you peak, but i know a termlab will. so just make sure to ask before paying there 20$ charge or w/e to gain no information.

my first USACi Sanctioned event
fold the back seat down if you can, unless the box is in the backseat. get there a little early and talk to the judges, they usually will just help you and give some pointers. just have fun. do a sweep, and ask them where your peaking at, then run straight tones at that hertz, as in what i did at my first event was ran a sweep, they told im peaking at 41-42 hz, and then the next run i did was just straight 41 hz tone, then 42 hz tone, it raised me up about.2 db from the sweep. also im not sure if you can do this or not with a 4 door, but i tilted my front passenger seat all the way up as if somone was getting into the backseat (2 door) and pointed the sunvisor on the passenger side to help guide the waves, i also noticed that raising the rear seat up to about a 45 deg angle helped the score as well, again im not sure if you can do these things, but they helped me!

Fi audio BL when will it fail?
ok, ill just have to see how the sub reacts to this power, if it blows ill post it up here to not do that. lol itll give me an excuse to get a BTL.
-
Same box, different sub placing
what kind of car is it? it takes alot of testing and building to get a definite answer on this tho...
-
Fi audio BL when will it fail?
yea i dont use boost on the head unit or on the amp, and the amp has a set ssf at 28 hz with my box tuned to 34 hz, it doesnt bottom out on low notes, its the 40 and up notes that it gets ALOT of excursion on. i guess im just worried and also curious if i could put the 1800 to use daily?
-
Fi audio BL when will it fail?
im just curious will a 12" BL fail thermally or mechanically first? cause it takes the 1800 watts i throw at it at comps like a champ, but im not sure if im hurting it mechanically? the signal is clean and everything, i use a oscope to set gains and to monitor the signal every so often, and i use a DMM to find out how many watts im putting to it. so i just want to know, cause im sure you guys did some fail tests... right? Thanks, Anton Miller

Spl from an L7 15
Please i need more advice. My suv is almost completly stock except for my L7 15 and my KX1200.1 ive got 4 gauge monster cable power and 4 gauge ground. Any tips for getting better spl 1/0 wiring and try another battery for starters. If you want to get everything, you need to experiment with different tunings, box sizes and positions. If you have access to a TL to try these, it's going to be rather simple to increase your score. i dont know where a term lab around where i live is. I live in orlando florida. What kind of battery should i get to replace my stock one? Im probably going to buy kicker 0/1 guage i found the kit brand new for 120. go to weldingsuply.com im using there 2/0 stuff and its better and thicker than kicker for 1/3 the price.
-
What would you reccommend?
so im guessing you hit like around a 140 with those tens, and 2 12" subs from some of these companies will do around 150 so you should be able to take that comp no problem. i spanked a 13w7 on 1500 watts by about 1.5 db on termlab with my single 12" bl on 1500 watts(144.6). i would also look into the BTL's if you can power them.
-
IS IT POSSIBLE
quad cab for sure, but you do know that you would have to wall it and everything, and as stated above it will be a lot of work.

TRUNKED CAR PORT POSITION
i dont agree with the sub up port back thing, just because my car is NOT a hatchback. its a chevy cavalier with a trunk. and i didnt do any testing on this i just kept it the way it is, sub and port facing back with the port on drivers side. i didnt do any testing because the box is just too difficult to get in and out of the trunk.
