New install, sub choice.
Nocturnus replied to Nocturnus's topic in DC Sound Lab - Big Bass on ANOTHER LEVEL!
I traded that car in this week. Picked up a used Volvo V50. I will be running a single DC L2 15 in this car. Doing a stealth install. -

Oh man. I hit a snag. Starting to lean back to my old habits.. Been really thinking of 2 L3 15's sealed. Running 1 Polk Audi PA D1000.1 to each. Only problem is how to get past the electrical issues. There are no aftermarket alt's for the 2.2L motor in my Malibu. I do have a couple of big ass batteries from the UPS at work (CD Technologies, forgot model # at this time). Who needs a trunk when you can add a roof rack.. -

Yeah.. L2 me thinks also. Gonna make some cardboard templates to see exactly what I can do. Either way, I'll be happy. I ran my 2 L3 12's in 2ft3 total and it was loud. Hope by this weekend I can start building. Pretty much after that 4-8 weeks I can't do jack shit. Foot surgery. Kinda sucks. -

I couldn't say what the future holds for a install. I change installs quite a bit. Seems I never finish one cause I end up changing stuff. Playing around on paper, it does seem like I can squeeze out just over 1.75ft3, so I could run ported. The Level2 shows 1.25ft3 for ported. Listening to mainly rap/techno, what should I aim for on tuning the port? -
So, I sold my Sundown/DC stuff while back. Been running HU on stock speakers since. I'm planning a new system using a Polk Audio 5 channel amp. Looking at single sub. I was looking a getting either a L2 or L3 12 for this. Sub channel onthe amp will be pushing 500 watts. Will it matter much which sub I get for this. I will be running sealed, ~1-1.25ft3 (maybe a little more if I get creative with my box design). Any input will be helpful on this.

Ported Level 3's.

I think I'll get to measuring this weekend. Since I'm no longer working 6 days a week, I got time to do things. -

I'm in Austin. We got a quite a few shops here. This was one of the main shops here. I'll call around. But building it myself will at least allow me to make a box fit how I want. I really want to use up all avail space I can to save trunk space. So.. Guess I'll do that next month. -

Well, for the $500 I was quoted for a box today.. I'll give it a try and build it myself. -

I'm sorry.. What were you saying? Your avatar distracted me.. Thanks for the info. Going to swing by the shop today and see what they can do for me. I just don't trust myself to build a ported box. -
So, I'm done with my sealed box. Running 2 Level 3 12's and a SA 1200d. I listen to a lot of rap and rock along with some techno. Decided I'd have a shop build the box for me due to I just want to be lazy. What should I be shooting here for as for port and ft3..

Yeah, I'm just pricing out new fuse blocks to replace what I got. I'm just going to replace my 2 way disto with single ANL holders. I'm trying to decide if I want to dedicate my 1/0 run for 2nd battery then direct to the sub amp and have another run of 4g that runs my front stage amp. This overkill or pointless?
