  4. New setup need suggestions!!!! single 15 vs. 2 12"s

    in Subwoofers / Enclosures

    Posted · Edited by hamel52

    2 type r's 12's in the right box will kill that q i know because i have a friend with 2 type r 12s and one that had a 15in bl and the type r's where alot louder, also the guy with the bl built both boxes so it didn't have anything to do with one enclosure being superior and the 12's were powered by a alpine pdx 1.1000 which i sold to him and the bl by a fosgate 1000.1 bd.

    also 1 ohm puts more strain on the electrical, the lower ohms the less resistance so more strain

  5. Kobe VS. Jordan

    how can you jordan wouldn't be the best player today in his prime? in all honesty i think when jordan played the league was more competitive and more defense orientated and he still dominated just look at his stats fg % ect. its pretty amazing for a guard to have multiple seasons over 50% fg percentage. also he was a great defender and rebounder. i still think jordan is the best even if kobe wins 5 more titles it will never take away what jordan brought to the sport and even in pure skill i would say jordan over kobe but kobe is great and probably the closest thing to jordan.

  7. HELP FROM THE BEST

    port area is the width of the port times the height make your port wider and its probably gonna need to be alot longer in order to get the tuning you want so mess around with it some more i'd say 120square inches of port minimum for 2 15's i'd say try making your port 7in wide.

  8. new here, and need some HELP on my 08 tahoe wall.

    the hell with messing with this wall.

    im havint them pull it back out and just put my original box back in.

    now yes, iw ould be more than happy to add another 5k amp, they are sick and run great. however my subs are dual 2ohm voice coil, so enlighten me on how i would make that combo work

    i thought to get to a 1ohm load id need 4 dual 4ohm speakers not 4 dual 2ohm.

    so the next best amp would be the 7k, atleats a couple thousand more watts, what could hurt, and i have heard that it really can put out around 10k if supplied correctly

    what would be an ideal box for 4 subs fired up with port facing back

    all this speaker stuff is really new to me, im into racing cars and motors, so big speakers/amps are all new really. how do you TUNE to 34hz, is that a way with the adjustments on the amp and headunit im assuming? or is it because of how the box is built.

    thanks for the help!

    tuning has to do with the way the box is built, its a combo of inner area of the box, and area/ length of the port i would suggest checking out the torres calc here on the forum and mess with it maybe get an idea of how boxes need to be built and and how to tune them correctly, generally 4 15's is going to need around 20 cubic feet for the subs and port area would have to be at least 250 square inches.

  10. port area

    well i already have a box sealed from the trunk firing forward so im going to stick with that, so i will most likely need an l port which has 3 common walls unless anyone knows how to work with aero ports, or has any better ideas, i did one 34x16x16 with 43.5 inches of port and port 14.5x3x40 with 19.42in^2 port area per foot net volume of 2.24 after sub and bracing displacement which i calculated .3 bracing for 45s not sure if thats enough, tuned to 33.38hz. what do you think?

    well you can probably buy the mdf wood and some screws and wood glue and build it yourself for around 50 bucks or so depending on how much it costs in your area or you can buy a box online maybe check ebay for ported boxes. if your looking to upgrade your subs though i might recommend going with some dc lvl 3's for the amount of power you have, if your looking to upgrade your entire system, then i would do some time thinking and researching because there are so many different things you could get, 1 15, 2 12's 1 18, just depends how much money you are willing to save and spend on this system man.

  25. question about t-lines

    in Subwoofers / Enclosures

    Posted

    how do subs and t lines perform at full power? giving a single 12 thats rated at 1500rms full power in a t line a bad idea, i was just wondering because i have a 12in custom sub by ssacket in a custom made ported box tuned to 34hz running off a mb quart dsc 1500.1d and was wondering how i t-line would sound? any opinions are appreciated thanks guys.
