I just ordered an x8 d2 for my 11 chevy Cruze. I've seen post where it's been said the sa8v2 (.75-1.0 cubes) will work but I'm running one off an saz1500v2 ( it's what I have to use since my zv3-12 is begging for more power so that's where my amp is coming from) and I want it to sound its best. But I have no wood working skills what so ever. So I'm looking for a good enclosure builder also in the Michigan northern Ohio area also. I'm a mechanic by trade. I listen to 50/50 hard rock and rap so I do like low but like my double pedal kick drum fills also... So what directions do I need to go? Mini 4th order like 1:1 ratio or labyrinth slot porting, or just a slot port box? And what should tuning be?
Thanx in advance for any advice in the right direction! My guy Dave the box guy is out of box building now... Right at a yr from when I've got one of the best boxes I've ever had! Super bummed!!!!

Edit: will this work for the single wire cs144 which is the street beat 250 amp alt?
It's on a 95 gmc yukon

I have my sundown comps running with the crossover off a sax 100.4d and I have to say they sound great. Just wondering what they sound like active since I'm one of those people who can't leave things alone. I'd be using the crossovers on the amp, so does anyone have a recommendation where to set the crossovers? Or am I best off using a cc1. Any experience with how they sound active vs. passive would be great too.
How many sets r u running off ur 100.4?
I have the same amp and are about to run two sets
Just wondering how u like them and where you have them placed at?
-
Not the SA6.5cs ... The neo components u can get just mids but sundown offers no tweets by them selfs
-
Kewl! I wasn't sure if they would need the extra power or not... I have a dd-1 good protection for my investment! I'm just waiting for my box from Dave the box guy but damn its goin on 8 weeks .....
-
Well...
Thanx for the help guys!

Bump
I measured the mid @ 3.1ohms
And the tweet @ 3.2 ohms
So the amp will see 1.5 ohm per channel is that right an would that be too low ?
-
So I finally got up enough money for 2 sets of SD sa 6.5's for my 100.4d .
So should I just wire them up using the supplied crossovers using all four channels
Or
Use the crossover in the amp and use channels 1-2 for the 4 tweets
And channels 3-4 for the 4 mid ranges?
Would there be a noticeable gains by dropping down to 2 ohms and getting 160 per channel and being able to control the tweets level and the mids level separately ??
Ill have to check and see what the mids and tweets actucally ohm out to be sure ..
-
Well atleast ill have fresh coils to underpowered
-
I guess everything will be under powered huh...
-
And ordered a set of sundown 6.5 components to see how they r gonna sound off my 100.4d
-
Thanx but I ordered a new one
- 1
-
1500rms I think ur gonna need a lot more than 1k to even get them moving
-
-
Yea by the time u include shipping I'm only a few bucks off a brand new zv3 ... Thanx tho
-
I'd just need one... How long u had them, what coil configuration, how much power has been on them? An how much u lookin to get for one?
-
Yea I'm pretty sure ill want that stereo effect now the more I think about it ...having that music sound like it coming from different ways is what makes listening to that type of music so kewl I think...an I'm really going for sound quality this time around... Just hope 100rms is enough to make them sound great
-
You don't think I'm loose any sound quality by not having separate front to back separation ?
-
You can do that, just back the gain off on the tweeters channels so you don't over power them.
Do what??
-
Ok so I have made room in the budget for 2 sets of the SD sa 6.5 component sets .
So now my question is how much power do they like and would it be better to use the 100.4 crossovers or use the supplied crossovers that come with the components and just run them off each channel @100rms to each side?
I was thinking since a lot of the dubstep music I've listen to goes from left to right and back to front and if I wired down to 2 ohms ( tweets off channel 1+2, and off the front preout set and the mids off channels 3+4, and off the rear preout sets) I would loose some of the stereo effect over running them off each channel separately ..
Would the extra power be worth it of having each channel separate for the stereo imaging be better??
-
Yea I can supply 14volts all day long so I expect at least 1800 out of the 1500v2 . But again I only have room for one sub so why not a z sub... An SA just wouldn't foot the bill
-
Yea clearance is really close with the space I have avalible .. And I can power the v3 better than the extra power a v4 would need.. I really talked it out with my box guy and agree the v3 would be best for my application and tight space I have to work with
