  1. The tuning would be the same since there is no way for the air to escape through the original port accept now through the new aeros which are going to be shorter than the original slot since its going for a higher tuning. So just tune for the aeros like you would in a regular box but take the volume of the slot port into account for the box's air space/volume.

    Then it would just come down to the question of lost efficiency due to the location of the ports inside the slot and how the air flows in the box.

    I would say go for it. You dont have much to lose. And if it doesnt work it shouldn't be hard to sell some 6 inch aeros and get your money back

  2. I never got the whole millions of tweets compared to mids, tweets in general are far more efficient than mids. Off topic though, its all about what makes you happy.

    You want to use multichannel amps for your mids and highs.

    "reason why im wondering about mono amps is to have less amps to hook up"

    Im not trying to be rude in any way but this sentence makes me think you are confused about the difference between multi channel and mono amps...you would need more mono amps than multi channel to achieve the same thing. Plus many mono amps are not designed to play frequencies above 250-500hz

  3. I think it would "work" if the aeros are inside the box...cant say for sure if it would do what you are hoping though

    If the aeros are sticking out of the box (for some reason thats what I thought you were talking about at first) then it would just be tuning you even lower since your port length is extending

  4. Great Deal! My girlfriend is starting a build on her car and I emailed her the link as soon as this went up. She just bought a pack of damp and damp pro but she said the receipt only showed her purchasing the damp pro but she was charged for the price of both packs.

    I'm sure its all good, but would you be able to double check that the order was processed correctly? She is kinda freakin out lol.

  5. all i'm saying is you'll probably find answers to basic questions much faster searching google than posting here and waiting for a response. Not trying to be rude, just sayin' is all. Here ya go:

    Not sure what RF midbass speakers you are talking about in the original post but RF does make good equipment

  6. So a comment/thought on the sub level for setting gains with the DD-1. My alpine 9887 is very clean. With the -5db tone its does not distort at full volume with sub level all the way up (the choices are 0 to 15). Measuring from the RCAs right before they go to the amp. I set gains at this level with the DD-1 because I measured with a DMM (still useful here) and saw that I was not getting full RCA voltage unless that sub level was cranked. With this setting the gain on my sundown is only about 1/4 of a turn up to reach full power. I then run daily at around sub level 4-6 depending on the song and then turn it up to 15 for full power.

    I am not at all saying all decks are like this but it has worked well for me and I believe some systems will be more effective ran like this since you will be getting full voltage from your RCAs and allow your amps to work easier since they don't have to do as much "amplifying."

    Of course I could be missing something here, if so let me know!
