no. it's roughly 48 inches squared.
310/(2.54*2.54)
Damn, that's some shitty cone area, I thought it'd be more but whatever.
you do radius x radius x 3.14.. its roughly 78 sq inches
-
radius x radius x 3.14

so i couldnt figure out why my turn signals were not working, looked at the fuses, and one was blown, so replaced that and now i have
-
I decided to turn them into something useful, i still have issues with my turn signals, but ive had that before i made this change..
atleast this will be useful
-
clip lights can be horribly inaccurate... i wouldnt trust them at all, get a DD1 or a oscope and see if you are clipping, only way to be safe..

HTC inspire 4g, i love the HTC Sense UI they have with their phones, i have been really pleased with stock HTC thunderbolt, even rommed it, but went back to stock, it was just the tiny features i miss, i love the way it operates
-
atrix...
just hook up the phone to the computer like a thumb drive, and put any music you want into it, and your good to go...
and 4g, and can hotspot/tether

I would get a hatch cover, and do 2 10s in a sealed box...
firing up.. the only reason for the cover, so no one steals your shit when you go anywhere..
other than that, look into obsidian audio, on this forum, ill see if i can get DJ in here to PM you the details
-
An eclipse and a neon are completely different...
depends what year and if ur talking cab space or engine engine wise some years are the same or similar. ik a eclise is a hatch. but still wanting to do the idea in mine. his 18s where just chilling in his back seat.
unless you can put subs into the engine compartment, that has absolutely nothing to do with the conversation LOL
-
one of your speakers are probably fucked up, and its giving the amp a fucked up ohmload....
-
who was that one guy whom had 4 in an astro then moved to 8 on those warhorses? he done very well with them, didn't know they were so hated here. I never had problems with mine and heating issues myself.
well, they are medium quality stuff, medium being a big factor here
medium quality being priced as top of the line quality
why spend 900+ on 1 kicker 18 when you can get 2 18s that handle MORE power, for right around the same price...
the only thing kicker has thats decent is warranty...
edit
lets also not forget that the motors are different from the solo x 10-12 to the 18...
so that is false advertisement because technically with different motors that makes it a different sub...
paying DC lvl 5 pricing for a lvl 4 sub = no go, but people WILL pay it because kicker says its a solo x LOL
-
good riddance to a piece of shit driver
I love this !!
and, yeah 135db from 4 1000w 15s, i guess some people are retarded
-
Walls work better for a lot of cars, but there are also a lot of cars where walls will hurt more than help.
thats why i only quoted alex, CJ is doing it in a 98 integra, alex has a 98 integra, and i have a 98 integra
-
gonna be tight with any car without a wall
i liked that box up there ^ ^ i think i want un wall mine to a normal box :-(
it took CJ 14,000 clamped watts to get slightly over a 154.. like a 154.6 or something, where it took me 6000 clamped to do it...
just sayin bro, stick with what you have
-
Well hypothetical both boxees are equal. I thought cone area went 3*12 = 36... and 2*18= 36 ?
http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/6819-cone-area-of-a-subwoofer/
How to calculate cone areaCone area = pi x (r x r)
pi = 3.14 r = radius of sub
One 8" = 50.27
One 10" = 78.54
One 12" = 113.1
One 15" = 176.71
One 18" = 254.47
Two 8" = 100.53
Two 10" = 157.08
Two 12" = 226.19
Two 15" = 353.43
Two 18" = 508.94
Three 8" = 150.8
Three 10" = 235.62
Three 12" = 339.29
Three 15" = 530.14
Three 18" = 763.41
Four 8" = 201.06
Four 10" = 314.16
Four 12" = 452.39
Four 15" = 706.86
Four 18" = 1017.87
2 18s = bigger than 3 12s

installed the 3 way component set in my girls car, and off radio power, they sound decent..
and its cheap enough to not break the bank
-
Everyone is going to say DC
theres nothing wrong with that, but ill throw this out
a few things come into mind when choosing a setup
money
performance
and CS
you might get the REs for cheaper, but where is the performance and CS... do you know if RE would take care of you?
I ran RE, and they used to make quality stuff, dunno much about the new series of subs.
But I know for the past almost 5 years, Rusty has taken really good care of me when I needed help with something.
Performance wise, they will probably be right on par with each other, so take those words into consideration and think about it.
Let us know what you decide to go with
-
i see enough room for 2 more 18s..........
just 2? i see enough room for like 6 total, maybe even 8 LOL
-
Not to be a buzz kill, but you bought a way overrated sub. The coil isn't even a true 3 inch, so it can't even be reconed. I blew my 1233 on not even 1500w total, and no, the signal was not at all clipped. You will probly be lucky to see any reliability at even 1000wrms.
Ive personally seen them handle 2500wrms easily.
true 2500w and 2500w max is a whole different story man..
sony xplode amps say 4000w max, but you would be lucky to get 400w out of it...
and i gotta agree with detroit, ive seen how bad these can be, audiofanatics tried to recone one, because they blew it on 1400 rms....
you could see through the spiders, all stacked together, they were beyond thin...
-
I was wondering what THD was?
The amps specs
14v@5%THD. 1200@1ohm
14v@1%THD. 1400@1ohm
That does't seem like a very good amp.
im actually confused on how it does 5% thd at 1200, but 1% thd at 1400...
that sounds backwards to all hell LOL
stay away from that amp for sure
-
if you have 1 set of speaker wires coming from the box to the amp, just use 1 pos and 1 neg..
they have 2 speaker terminals for more wire, so if you wanted to run another pos and neg from the speaker box, from the same spot *saying you had the subs wired inside, and bolts on the box for the wiring*
you can run 2 pos and 2 neg, its just for more flow thats all'
1 pos and 1 neg is fine though
-
and just in case you are tooooooo lazy to google
-
total harmonic distortion
-
Likin the style there Derrick. Atleast your being honest. Some people just live off drama and hatin I believe
LOL yeah, im alittle too honest, i say that shit to people who talk shit about car audio all the time, then they pause and take a second to realize im right, it could be worse, instead of me pulling up with my stereo on, i could pull up with my gun drawn and shoot them..
LOL
edit
it was really funny how the people said that people that have that stuff are low life no job having people..
last i remember, im a veteran getting deployed next month for my 2nd tour to the middle east, kinda funny when you think about it
Cone area
in Subwoofers / Enclosures
Posted
yeah, but hes asking the cone area of a 10...
