Most people on here are going to tell you to build a custom box (which would be optimal). But what you're looking at will be fine. Just don't overpower the subs
Edit: Those subs also like bigger boxes than kicker recommends. Or at least the L7's do, so I figure the CVX's are probably the same.
-
Everyone likes the lows, but if every song is the same 30hz note, there's no point in having multiple songs. Know what I mean? Keep them sub 50hz but make sure the basslines are sick and the frequencies change a little
-
I just put all of them on a decaf playlist and keep it on random
If I hear a song I really like, I save the name of it in my phone (which usually is enough for me to remember it) and if I want to hear it again I search for it by song name

Well, the best way to learn is by doing
Nobody can tell you how loud your system is going to be because too many things play a factor in it. Anybody who even guesses is literally just making a number up off the top of their head.33hz should be a fine tuning
The program most people use is Torres Box Building Calculator. It's a free download here on the forum and is much more accurate than the one you used
-
Should be ok. If you have the dimensions for it, though, why didn't you just use the optimum box?
-
I put my hand up on your hip. When I dip, you dip, we dip.
-
waiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitt a minute....subs aint sposed to stay still?
Not when the bass kicks up high! Then they dip!
-
cheap jigsaw would be under $30 if that
I HAVE seen ppl used weird contraptions tho, someone one here cut holes for his subs using scissors
he said "it took forever"It'd probably be easier to just drill a ton of holes all the way around and then karate chop it out
-
What about the circular part though? And I don't think they'll do angle cuts for you
-
Like it moves in and out? It's supposed to do that
-
You'll probably want screws and a screwdriver, carpet or paint or whatever you plan to coat the box with, wire strippers/cutters etc, soldering iron or wire connectors or whatever... You'll probably just end up going and buying what you need as you need it or you'll end up with an excess amount of stuff
-
It seems you know what you want. Download Torres Box Calculator and get to work!

screw what kicker recommends. like almost every other manufacture they list specs that will safely power run stuff. when a sub is installed and powered correctly its not going to make a difference the box size. if you go sealed its going to be nice. ported will be louder. just port tune correctly and it will be just as nice as ported but actually hit lows.

Except that in too big or too little of a box, you can choke the sub and cause damage. Your statement is contradictory because the box size has a lot to do with whether or not the sub is installed and powered correctly.

4 L7 15s in 6 cubes sealed?
i had my 4 l7 15s in 20cubes net @ 30 HZ
one thinkg i do know is L7s love their air space, with 6 cubes, id do 2 sealed...or 1 ported..
I was thinking this, but kicker recommends 1.5 sealed per woofer at the least, and his amp could push all four just fine. This is the only reason I suggested 4. I guess OP you should try a few different things and see what works best
-
Use all 4 and go sealed. You'll be able to run the amp at full power with no problems then, and hopefully you'll pull a LITTLE SQ out of those L7s
-
I'm excited to see the outcome! Wish it could be live streamed
-
i have 14.13 in/sq port 3.02ft/sq volume after woofer/port displacement sunded to 32.29hz box is 14"tall 14.75 inch deep 37.25 wide with double baffle
ive been told 14-17 in/sq was decent port area
Whoever said that meant 14-17sq in PER cube, but that is for a slot port.
You can get away with like 8-11sq in PER cube with aero ports. You have 3 cubes, so you need 24-33sq in of port. Understand?
-
I cannot see how the design because I'm on mobile. How much port area do you have?
He's got 3 cubes with two 3" aeros (14sq.in) at 32hz. Port area needs to be at least 25sq in. or so
-
In fact, you may want to go with three 3" aeros
-
I think two 3" aeros is going to be good. As for bracing, it won't need much. You may be fine. You might consider adding like a couple dowels between the aero ports and the subs on each side because the top and bottom pieces are a little big to not be braced at all. Other than that everything looks perfect
Oh my mistake, you may not have enough port. You may need to go with the 5 2" aero ports or even a center slot port
-
Looks good but make sure you have a way to brace the box a little and you should be good
-
Man I liked your setup but everyone gets an itch to switch it up once in a while. Looking forward to seeing what's coming!

not an L shaped port...just a slot. aproxx 17 inches deep...15 inches tall x 3 inches wide
Then it's probably a gain issue because you're using two amps. One gain may be slightly higher than the other
i just dont get why one amp picks up the lows better...im using the older gray zx750...and a new 2010 zx750(black one)
could there be a diff between them in power and shit?
Yes. This is the problem. You set your gains wrong and the amps are different.
FML. i jus wanna sell em both. and get a RF t-1500.
run it at 1 ohm.
If you did this, you would not be disappointed
