I guess I didn't design it right
SpartanSound replied to RooTxBeeR's topic in Subwoofers / Enclosures
I say around 3.5 cubes would be adequate. -

SpartanSound replied to Raptorman's topic in Subwoofers / Enclosures
Nice work for sure, especially for a first box! -
Anyone have a box design for 3 12's ?
SpartanSound replied to JesseyMclame's topic in Subwoofers / Enclosures
about 7.5 give or take would be perfect. tune to 35 and it will chop all the lows with ease. my set up is currently tuned to 35 and i am very pleased with it. so I agree as well. -
How many bats?!
SpartanSound replied to Bump4life's topic in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring
for sure a batt would help just about any system. but i would say get a bat and if you are still having problems with voltage drop then consider an alt. but you sound like you are on the right track. -
It wasn't from the gains. I went with a friend and we metered two different boxes in two different cars. One box was his dual 10 inch alpine type r's with about 12 inches per cube and then his dd 2512s with about 17.5 per cube. The alpine box was fine in both cars, but the dd box was clipped like I have never seen before. By the way the box was a single chamber and gave about a total of 3.5 cubes net for both subs which is really undersized for those 12s in my opinion. Still not sure what the problem is thou lol.

It wasn't port noise from what I could tell. We put it on the term lab and it put up a 141.2 but the o scope was showing that it was clipped to shit. And we didn't know what it was from so I guessed that it had too much port area and not enough net volume.

How much port area is too much or too little port area?? I had a box for 2 12 inch alpine type r's with 48 aquare inches of port and a friend built a box for 2 DD 2512's with 60 inches and it still wasn't enough. Is there a rule of thumb or formula or something to figure it out for each specific woofer??
