  1. yeah i would have to changes subs then... something i plan on doing later down the road but not right away. right now i currently have 2 aq sdc 2.5 15's and they are dual 4. i know they are rated only 600wrms each and i dont have the full power from the kickers going to them. i also am able to get a better deal buying new from kicker i just couldn't wire the subs to 1ohm

    edit: the kicker 2500.1 is not a bad idea though i could wire to 4ohms and be straight

  2. I figured it would be good to change from 2 to 1. i hear a lot on here or other forums that hifonics are descent for the money. then if i sell the 2 amps what other good options would i have? I also have 2 kicker zx650.4 that i would end up selling just because i want to use that same brands in amps its weird but its just me i guess

  3. So i currently have 2 (newer models) kicker zx1000.1. Would it be wise to sell both them off and get only 1 amp for subs? The amps i was looking at were hifonics brutus brz2100.1 or the hifonics brutus brz2400.1. Any opinions please would be appreciated.

  4. maybe it me or the camera but subs look out of phase

    and need more power they dont even move enough to watch

    let me check and see if they are out of phase i wasnt really looking at that... but yeah the are on around 250-300 watts, just a guess. i could clamp the amp to see about how much power they are getting im just not sure on how to do that.

  5. ok so i didn't have to much time to work on the box due to longer hours at work and spending time with the kids this weekend. Although however i did manage to just about complete the box. here are the pics

    here just making sure everything is still square

    here got one side of the port in

    here i got the other port along with the double baffle

    I do have all the box together with bracing caulked countersink on all screws just didnt get to take the photos yet

  6. alright so i calculated my bracing and i actually got .14 in which i will need to change the port length to 20 to get 35hz. I also seem to get small amount of more port area with 2 common walls so i will go ahead and do the port down center

  7. You need a double baffle and bracing.

    you didn't even look past the first picture, did you?

    granted, OP, you probably don't need more than .5 cubic feet of bracing, and tha't's pushing it

    right now the way i got it calculated i have 2 braces going up and down and 2 going across. Should i go ahead and remove 1 that goes all the way across and still have 2 going up and down since it has more area to cover to prevent the box from flexing? right now the wood i got for braces are 2 pieces of 2x2x8. not cut yet but thats what im using

  8. So i have my dd-1 and it says to ground to the amp but would it be ok to just ground straight to the battery since it is close enough to the amps? I believe this question as been asked i think but i cant seem to find it.

    edit: i did it like this already just would like to know if its fine

  9. You need a double baffle and bracing.

    i do have theses things accounted for i was just wondering what is the difference in why i change the width and height by switching numbers i see different volumes but if you calculate volume it shouldn't matter so much as to where the numbers are inputted you get the same volume. Ex. 2x4x2=16 or 2x2x4=16 no matter the combination the answer is still the same. so why changing the in torres calc does everything else change?

  10. Have you ever heard of the push/pull tool? that's the one thing that bothers me whenever you do your sketchup models... you never include the wood thickness.

    lol, yeah i use it but i was trying to get this done quick, also it shouldnt matter so much when the torres calc compensates for it

    edit: also the next thing we going to complain about is how i didnt put the braces in the sketch up either, lol
