March 13, 201114 yr OK, so we got 2 votes for the 18s...1 curious vote about the 4 12s, hehe.Let me toss this out there as a little bit more info about the designs being presented here...The 4 18s will more than likely be housed in ~18-19cuft NET.DC Soundlab has already assured me that with the power on hand, the volume isn't too small.Tuned @35hz with 360sqin of portThe 6 15s will more than likely be housed in 22cuft NET.This will allow them to be used in an enclosure which exceeds optimal requirements.Tuned @35hz with 230sqin of portThe 6 15s have more motor, more cone area, more coils to dissipate heat, more volume...But the 18s have much more port...... hmm....And don't think that's not enough port...My first wall was 4 15s off of 11,000w clamped in only 13.5cuft with 144sqin of port and pulled a 153.4db at the head and a 156.8 in the kick.my vote would definitely be 6 15s. but i know next to nothing.also the pics you posted of bracing.... oh my....
March 13, 201114 yr Author pics of bracing, eh.. the pics of the 12s are the only ones i showed bracing but that pic was done quite a while back...The other options show no bracing as it's not really necessary to choose an option.I'm stuck between 4 18s and 6 15s...In all honesty, i at first was thinking 6 15s.. but now.. 4 18s is makin me wonder...
March 13, 201114 yr Author What softparts do these include?what exactly do u mean?The 4 18s are Lvl 5sThe 6 15s are Lvl4 XLsIn terms of mods.. i do not know if i need DC to do anything crucial to the subs...I have plenty of possible team mods i can have done.. but won't get into that since i don't even know what subs i'm runnin yet, lol
July 9, 201114 yr Author i'll be making a new thread about this new build i'm doing in my car so it's more organized when the time comes.Expect it to take some time, few months because i have to wait for things to get here and get installed in certain timeframes so i'm in no rush...For those who are waiting on my progress.. the batteries HAVE SHIPPED! yay! hehe.So, as of right now, i have 4 CA 5500ds sitting here...

SKY ONS cant even hold the weight!
July 9, 201114 yr Author smartcar cant even hold the drivers weight, haha.crash test scores go UP when someone is in it to help brace all sides of the vehicle while driving.
