like I said I'm not the person to offer much in the advice of port design, but I'm pretty sure you can't just use a per square foot formula to figure out port area. That seems to ignore lots of variables.
I'm not great at ports but that seems a little low for port area. Hopefully someone that knows their stuff can help out a bit more. I had 2 lvl 4 12s with a single 8" aero and it wasn't nearly enough. Different subs I know, but still.
Yeah, noob mistake on my part. However what I really want to know if that is in fact the right battery for my truck. Have I just been cursed with an expensive battery in the front of my truck?
The XS website doesn't have a selection past the year 2012 and using the 2012 version of my truck leads me to a D6500 for a starting battery. Am I wrong or is my option for a starting battery from XS nearly $500?? $500 for a single battery is a fucking tough pill to swallow...
Exactly how much more output are you expecting from the 12? You are losing a good bit of cone area from the 3 8s. I'm not sure you will gain. You might just have an enclosure problem. What are your 8s in now?
bola's going to copy and paste this thread and make a song out of it. he's probably reading this drooling over himself trying to figure how we are all so good at writing lyrics.
