December 23, 200816 yr Author Can i ask what you are building out of them?5 MJ18's.As soon as I get the Cash, Mark, I'm going to need 5 MJ18 baskets and recones.
December 23, 200816 yr I'm assuming he didn't buy them directly from Mark, but from someone else used.
December 23, 200816 yr Admin Wow, you are not kidding. When I packed that box, it was jammed super tight with all kinds of packing. The pup looks unsure as to your plans.
December 24, 200816 yr Author is it any cheaper that way. with all the extra shipping.Actually, yes.After shipping for everything it comes to $73 a brand new sub.Motors were bought brand new from Denim.For a steal of a price at $125 shipped for all 5.I'm assuming he didn't buy them directly from Mark, but from someone else used.Nope, bought them from Denim brand new.Wow, you are not kidding. When I packed that box, it was jammed super tight with all kinds of packing. The pup looks unsure as to your plans. Believe it or not, she's full grown, she just looks really young in that picture.As far as plans, I'm not sure.4 Ported or 6 Sealed??? Who knows? Edited December 24, 200816 yr by Bigpimpin91
December 25, 200816 yr Damn Chris, you aren't messing around are you. I hope you do the 4 ported instead of 6 sealed.
December 25, 200816 yr Author Damn Chris, you aren't messing around are you. I hope you do the 4 ported instead of 6 sealed.Just hoping to break 50.Not to sound harsh but these didn't get that loud for what it looked like.2 18's, wall, little truck.Not even a 140.Only 600w, Though.But, forget what they think. I'm doing this ish anyway.I'll do my box a little large so I can drop BTL's or DC's in if I outgrow these. How's This Look? Edited December 25, 200816 yr by Bigpimpin91
December 25, 200816 yr You must have been short on power, but the MJ18's dont really need more than ~600watts a piece to max them out... I did 146.3db in a saturn wagon (remember it's all plastic) with a pair of MJ18's in 3cf sealed each, off a 2kw amp (earthquake PH-D3), stock eletrical system too.

I did 146.3db in a saturn wagon (remember it's all plastic) with a pair of MJ18's in 3cf sealed each, off a 2kw amp (earthquake PH-D3), stock eletrical system too.It has to be my car or box arrangement.Like I said I had only 600w.Box was CRX style but I stood it up one day and it was a chit load louder.Port was firing into the roof.It peaked at 64hz.Audiopipe 1500 @ 4Ω.However, when I put in an Audiopipe 3000 I about chit bricks.Never got a score on it though.Sounded twice as loud so maybe a 2-3db gain.
December 28, 200816 yr A few folks got some fairly high numbers with them, which is a (pleasant) surprise to me.
December 30, 200816 yr Author Box looks good. Have you considered a brace from baffle to rear wall? All Thread, just didn't put it in there.Box was a rough draft, not even tuned.
December 30, 200816 yr Author A few folks got some fairly high numbers with them, which is a (pleasant) surprise to me.Partly the reason I picked them.$120 for two subs (Used.)Capable of hanging with the Big Boys.Will have videos of them on proper power tomorrow.Bought's me an amp and got my old subs back.
