What's up SMD,
I'm just on a hunt for loud out of a trunk. I was trying to re-create that breath taking bass I'd feel as a kid my cousin's accord w/three OG kicker round solo-barics on a Rockford 1000. So I figured I'd try (3) NEW round solo-barics on a BXi2610, built the box to specs...long story short, not even close. It did sound decent, just no where near what I'd expected, major let down(maybe my box was flawed).
I'm back, limited on the funds as I've been playing around with my Evo. But go fast can never keep me satisfied for long. I'll even make this easy, I'm just hunting for "(2) 13" W7's running on (1) JL 1000" Loud. A friend is running that set-up in his trail blazer and I would be content to even reach that level for now, knowing damn well, that isn't REALLY loud.
It's depressing, keep wasting money, time, material, this time I'm not going to do it, I'm only going to work with what I have:
(1) Konaki Motor (Just motor on 15" Basket); Blew a coil, believe it was using a sundown recone.
(1) Konaki Motor (fully operation in the "MD Sounds skin" straight from the company; someone local had one) dual 2 ohm.
(1) BXi2610
(1) Nations Electric custom built 275a alt
(2) XS Power Batts (1) Optima) in the trunk(can't remember the specs of the XS' @ the moment)
I know I damn sure got more juice than my buddy on those JL's! lol he has one extra optima in his trunk, that is all! I do know his box is the bread and butter of his build, built specifically for his truck to the recommended JL specs I presume.
Thoughts; Recone the other 15" Konaki to dual 2 ohms and try to squeeze them in the trunk! And still have room for a 5-gallon air tank for the air suspension I am working on now. Is it possible?! I just want loud! I don't care about breaking records, SPL competitions, just some good chest pounding thump.
The specs for my trunk are:
Max width (inches) : 37.5"
Max height(inches) : 16"
Max Depth (inches) : 25"
Any ideas??
I'm currently running The "MD Sounds Konaki" 15 in this SPL box(1 ohm), its tuned way to high but it does hit hard just it's that "annoying" to your ear hit(tuned around 38-40hz and the box is about 4cu ft). I'd imagine getting both 15's squeezed back there could shake some things up.
What do you think?
-New Box design for the 15?
-Squeeze the (2) 15's back there?
-Continue my "wishing on a star hunt" for that gut wrenching (1) sub wonder set-up
-Give up, build 18's and wall it? lol (not so practical @ the moment)
