  1. Box for an Xcon...

    in Subwoofers / Enclosures

    Posted

    Correct... this is for a 15" Xcon... I have it sealed currently... But I would like to have the sub facing up(at the rear deck) and the ports to the side... In order to do so, 15" for height of the box and 22" deep...

    The subwoofer on its own has a displacement of .20 cubes... I over estimated for bracing which will be needed since I want to do top mount and not front like it is currently.. Does that make sense?

  2. Quality vs loud

    in Mid's and highs

    Posted

    My goal is bass. But some times I like to hear the music coming out also :D my question is can you even hear the difference in quality in speakers when you start to get into the 3k+watt range on subs? Im guessing this is why some people just get cheaper priced seleniums because I hear there loud? I just ordered a hifonics zeus that does 150x4ch@4ohms. Had good reviews so I whent with it and didnt know if I should just get some cheap seleniums or comps from hifonics( I heard good things about them on hear from one guy who had them and an other guy did his whole car in hifonics who said good things) or up to some kicker or rockford $400+ comps.

    What you're asking is hard to answer. If you're trying to achieve SQ and SPL, you're trying to achieve something that is impossible to achieve. (SQ = Imaging, clarity, etc, etc) .... You lose all that once you start climbing above 130db. If all you're looking for is to 'hear' your highs in combination with bass, then you can get away with cheap speakers and loud tweeters combined with power. Given what you're asking... I think you'd be making a mistake buying $400 + speakers just to keep up with your bass... Seeing as $125 worth of speakers could have the same output....

    this...^^^ ... I would go with a nice component setup.. and bridge that amplifier @ 4ohms... Pioneers C1720 I believe is the model are good... you could also look into the Image Dynamic CTX65
