Been enjoying the new theater room... bout to hit the hay, gotta head to freezefest in the morning... Winn... if you don't mind me asking... why were you asking about mixing sub sizes, what do you have in mind?? Nothing..... I just pulled it out of my ass and was just wondering.. im not going to mix subs... Ain't a damn thing wrong with educating yourself!!!

no way in hell that looks bad, thats a great setup. The only thing that bothers me about that is the light grey carpet.. I ran out of dk grey... (I had to make adapter to swap from XXX 18's to FI then to the TFS subs... (did not feel like redoing the entire setup..) OP... on this truck, the 2 18's are in their own chambers on their own amps and the 15's share a chamber and are both on the same amp... oh yea ive seen some videos, i personally like it just because it has character and its different but still pounds like no other. I gotta say it is an interesting ride... You don't know how many times I have been confused with the Geek Squad! LOL!

im talking about mixing fi with plye or kenwood with jl. it just looks like shit. IMO Mixing an FI sub with a Pyle sub is like mixing a King with a Challenged peasant.... Thats a disgrace LOL LMAO!!! King and a CHALLENGED peasant!!!!!! not only a peasant.. a challenged one on top of it! I can tell your no fan of pyle! LOL!

As far as looking bad... if it is done tastefully, it will look real good. I have people tell me franky looks ghetto... I have seen thousands of installs with the same subs that look way more ghetto than it does... I am a strong believer in finishing cabinets and running wires neatly... I don't think this looks too dam bad????

Oh..... you knew dam well I was gonna chime in on this one! LOL! Here's what I gather about the rumor that started about mixing subs... If you put different size or different brand subs in the same cabinet without partitioning them off, the stiffer ones or smaller ones will move differently and the power to the subs will not be evenly distributed... will be more going to the smaller ones I believe... People have mixed sub sizes since I can remember. (I have been into car audio since the late eighties and never had any problems mixing subs) usually when you mix sub sizes you put them into different chambers. You also can tune them to different frequencies like I did in frankenstein. you are basically doing the same thing when you mix diferent size mid range speakers. One thing you cannot do because it will cause cancelation is put different subs in different cabinets on the same amp. What I did was tune the 18's to around 26hz and the 15's to around 36 hz to get a wide range of play.

Really isnt that much, I built a budget wall for a team member with 4 lanzar 15's ( ) for around I think $800... (amps included) It wasn't super loud (Lanzar Curse) but had potential to be loud as hell with some upgrades... Or some bigger ports....LOL His ports were up to par for what he had, crap, his port area for 2 of the 15's was more than my 6 15's! LOL! Plus, if I remember correct, we designed the box around Memphis CM Cast Mojo's which like smaller ports...
-
I always put ports center on walls... as smoke said, better for music and equal sound in vehicle... As for the wall issue, I have had people argue with me that boxes on top of each other, connected and molded into vehicle where all you can see behind you is a WALL of speakers is not a wall... well, it IS a wall, sorry haters...
