  1. I want to do a port like the one Steve has in the Tahoe so I have more net volume. Ill be using the Torres' ExpoSport calculator. Here are my questions:

    1) Will I only have one common port wall?

    2) Does it matter how high the port is on the box?

    3) How much port area should I have per cubic foot?

    4) Is the depth (length) of the port the same on all four sides?

  2. If you're getting at AQ3500D then a fully loaded fi btl would work. Just get a dual 1 ohm fully loaded sub and wire it up to 2 ohms. It'll be better on your electrical at 2 ohms than 1. That way, if you want another btl after you upgrade the electrical, you could use the same amp and wire it to 1 ohm with the two woofers. I'd go with either a btl, xl, or level 5..whichever is cheapest

  3. and thank you for the answer. i like all music so it hard to make my mined up this is why im trying to get some feed back from the forum

    Your welcome. If you listen to all different types of music, I'd do a mid sized ported enclosure and tune it between 35 and 38Hz. No, it wont get the extremely deep lows, but it will get some "high bass."

  4. I'd do the fifteens in a proper box theres nuthin worse than someone tryin to get a larger sub into there ride by puttin it in a box thats to small for it and wonder why there friends shitty 10's are louder

    I had an idea that was the case but I heard you could give a sub more power to make up for the smaller enclosure. I figured i'd ask on here because you guys have helped me in the past

  5. Which setup would hit the lows harder? I'm looking for a "ground pounder."

    1) Two 15" fully loaded Fi BTLs in a 9.5 cubic foot enclosure tuned to about 32Hz with one Rockford Fosgate T2500-1bd per sub (wired down to 1 ohm)

    2) Two 18" fully loaded Fi BTLs in a 10 cubic foot enclosure tuned to about 32Hz with one Rockford Fosgate T2500-1bd per sub (wired down to one ohm)

    ------------------------------------------------

    I know the 18s would have more cone area; but the 15s are in a better sized enclosure because the reccomended size for the 15 is 3-5 cubic feet while for the 18, it's 5-10 cubes.

  6. If you have 5cubes for each BTL, then why not get the 4 Q's and put them in a 10cu ft enclosure?

    I think The 12's in a 10cu ft enclosure would be louder then the 18's in a 10cu ft enclosure.

    The q's would get optimum airspace and the BTL would be in the smallest box.

    EDIT:JZeff, you have quite a big sig, couldn't you make it smaller pls?

    Isn't the extra power suppossed to make up for the small enclosure? Would it sound similar to two btls in 7 cubes with 2000 watts?
