Posted August 31, 200916 yr Alright, here is my NEW setup that I will be planning. Two Twelve Inch AA Havocs, on a SAZ-3000D.Wired down to 1 ohm, so each sub will be getting 1500 watts rms.What would i need to tune the subs to ( I listen to mostly rap), What cubic feet for the box, and i would like to use tubes instead of a L or slot port.How many amp hours would i need to power the SAZ? I think im going with 120 amp hours, i have a stock 100 amp alt, big three with 0 gauge, and replacing front and throwing a powermaster in front and back.I have a RATHER large trunk, seeing how i have 95 Lumina there is already a 4.5 cubic foot box and its only taking up 1/2 of my trunk area i think i could fit up to a 7 cubic foot box shaped like a T.I Idle around 14.4 then coast down to 13.5 when the car gets warmer. going to move up to 1/0 gauge wire (most likely welding cable or Knukonceptz wire).Anything i left out, or information please let me knowPictures of trunk:I have a lot of room Edited August 31, 200916 yr by Julian
August 31, 200916 yr I'd plan on some Second Skin deadening, should make a big difference for your listening pleasure inside and out.
August 31, 200916 yr On the new ride I mean of course, almost forgot you said you were getting new ride and thats why you were waiting for 1/0 gauge, just make sure your voltage doesn't drop too far with that 4 gauge so you don't hurt your amp. Sundowns are tough as nails but NO amp is invincable :-) So maybe a voltage meter mounted in a place easily read while slamming your beats?
September 1, 200916 yr Just make sure the new box size will be able to fit into the trunk opening. That's almost always the limiting factor, not the actual space available in the trunk. Unless you want to build in the trunk, of course. I had a '91 olds cutlass supreme, which is the same body style as yours (though older version), and had about a 4.5 cubic foot gross box in there. It looked similar to how yours is sitting, and I had my amps mounted on the back (towards the rear bumper, sub was firing forward) and could still fit my golf clubs. However, that was the largest box I could fit in the opening.
September 1, 200916 yr Author What cuft for the two twelves would be optimum and what frequency for the port?
September 3, 200916 yr If it were me, I would go with 4.4 cu. ft. tuned at 30-32hz. 66-70 sq. in. of port. Would hit the lows real well and move some air.
