Posted January 5, 20178 yr Goal is 139.9 BassRace in a '12 Grand Cherokee, biggest box I can fit is 5c/f tuned to 34hz for a 18"! Amp is Cactus 5k. Available motors are 1 DC lvl5 m1, 2 Sundown Zv4.rev1. Do I go 1 18" or 2 12"? Edited January 5, 20178 yr by ludeman
January 5, 20178 yr If I remember correctly, you have to reach your goal number and hold it for a certain amount of time. Correct ?? Personally, I would trial and error with a pair of 12s on separate lower powered amplifiers. Test and tune from there. It's all about endurance, not just hitting a goal number. Stronger motor force with equivalent cone area. Just a thought ???
January 5, 20178 yr In your case the 12's would be my vote. But I'm no expert on bass race, I always competed in amature music classes in Meca, and even that was 15-20 years ago. But I have watched the bass races and I would think higher power handling, more cone area, and 2 coils over 1 would be a Benefit.
January 6, 20178 yr The idea of 1 18" sounds very sexy but like was said 2 12" may give you better overall experience. I've never competed so take that however you'd like I just like 1 sub setups myself.
January 6, 20178 yr Author I'm leaning towards the 2 12's idea for cause of the torture there going to get Edited January 6, 20178 yr by ludeman
January 6, 20178 yr Author No limits on equipment! Here's one of the videos of my run in the 129.9 class years ago! With 1 IA DeathRow 12"! Hold it steady at the ##9.9 without going over first 30 seconds! Edited January 6, 20178 yr by ludeman
