I am looking to build a 4th order or wall in a Tahoe at the c-pillar. I am looking at either 3 or 4 woofers.

1st question, has any one had success with a 4th order build with only 3 subs?

2nd question will a 4th order with 4 subs or wall with 4 woofers work well at the c-pillar?

Why do you want a bandpass?

What equipment are you using?

Subs

Sub amps

Front stage speakers

Processing etc...

Bandpass for better range of frequencies.

Try again.  Does the opposite.  Narrow range, in fact they are passed in a band.  

 

Any other reason?

4th orders have two narrow ranges. And if you build it right you can get a bigger range of frequencies. Regular ported boxes are a lot easier to design and get right.

One thing good about 4th orders is yiu can get loud on low power if needed

And as I stated, it will NOT be a better range of frequencies. I understand BP frequency response, the OP obviously does not. It isn't about easier and getting it right, it is about being useful. Generally speaking that alignment offers no benefit and a ton of negatives.

BP enclosures do not have an advantage over a normal ported enclosure in that way. Not unless you want a really narrow bandwidth, but that would be stupid.
