Posted March 15, 201114 yr I have a FI SSD 15. (bp power, flat coil) I currently have it in a 18x18x38 box tuned to 34-36hz somewhere in there. aprox 4 cubes.Im thinking of building a new box, what should i tune it to, and how many cubes?i find my box has a slight bit of port noise because there are no 45s and it doesnt go as quite low as i want it to. Iv heard other ssd 15's hit harder than mine, so im trying to squeeze every thing i can out of the sub.also with the box the way it is now, what should my Amp be set at? Lowpass and subsonic?If it matters: its going in a crew cab GMC, powered by a AQ1200. thanks, in advance all help is appreciated Edited March 15, 201114 yr by samuel6731
March 15, 201114 yr Author as far as db go, you think the max recommened air space will achieve that?
March 15, 201114 yr Author yes, more "pressure" to the ear. Im not really worried about sound quality. but would it really hurt the quality all that much?
March 15, 201114 yr yes, more "pressure" to the ear. Im not really worried about sound quality. but would it really hurt the quality all that much?No, a properly done box will yield higher "SPL" and be great sounding. Anymore specs on your box? Are you comparing yours to Andrew's?
March 15, 201114 yr Author no not really, my box has a slight higher tune, but we recently put logans 12"SSD in a ported box and his slams just as hard.. me and andrews sound a good bit diffrent. he also has 45's in his port..... i dont know i guess because my truck is a bit bigger and there vehicles are smaller... i really want to get another 15 pretty soon.
March 15, 201114 yr Your truck is much bigger, that would have a huge effect on the sound. When you are getting the second woofer?
