    No... Use manufacture's specifications as a guide. Those recommendations are straight from Jacob's mouth which if you do not know that is the owner of Sundown...so yes that is the manufacures specifications...now please shut up.... N9neMillahhh - 4 cubes will be perfect for the two 10's on a 3500Dv2 at 1 ohm; don't listen to Krakin because he obviously has no idea what he is talking about.... Okay I'll fix my post for accuracy... Orignal: I would recommend doing the math on what the amp will be drawing at it's Ohm load. Then seeing how much much current is possible to transfer through CCA or OFC, cause I don't remember them right now, to see what runs you need to do. And MOST importantly get a reliable volt meter. I suggest buying a SMD VM-1 especially with the discounts going on for it right now. SMD coupon i think is $10 off, and sending in you old - broken or working - volt meter gets you $25 off each one sent in. Fixed since I'm an idiot: Fuck math throw something with metal the electricity is smart it'll get there. Just through some of Kicker's Silver clad OFC IT'S GOT SILVER!!! Fuck meters just use your dash gauge that shits accurate as hell!

    In all reality if you don't have the electrical to support that amp along with Ohm rise you will be giving them less than 3500, but it's not wise to design a box expecting to account for those. It's better design as if you are on higher power: either for future upgrades or just common mistakes when assembling.
  5. Krakin
    Not double.. And they will need a bigger box just because of that unbelievable Xmax. When you account for the port area needed for them, the length of the port, stepping up the RMS by 250w, and other variables of that beast. Compare it to any other well designed box for another sub of the same diameter of course it will be bigger.
  6. Krakin
    You will get more bottom-end and more benefit by using a box a little larger. if you want to risk having to do a recone go ahead. the subs are rated 1750 rms so 2 will be 3500rms and im sure they can take more rms.. So if he puts them on a saz3500 amp @1 ohms 3500rms he would be good.. I know that the amp fits the RMS but in a Box double the suggested volume that would be a disaster...
  7. Krakin
    The displacement of the sub will be on the manufacture's website under the spec for your sub. The Zv4 isn't out yet so there is nothing for it, or it's just not on sundown's site. I would recommend using Torres as a calculator for basic sealed/ported boxes.

    No not 4 cubes for (2) 10's! Based off the Zv3 the recommended volume for (1) 10 is 1ft3 after driver and port displacement. (2) 10's would be 2ft3. Putting two of those woofers in a box double their suggested volume is a sure way to destroy them when being ran at RMS. Remember only build a larger box if you are running on lower power. The higher the volume the less control you will have of the sub at higher power causing it to bottom out, and yes I know the Zv4 has an insane surround. Higher Power = smaller volume RMS Power = Suggested volume Lower Power = Larger volume.
  10. Krakin
    Okay so you're going with only 2 10's?? You have 5.5cubes before displacement with the volume you posted. I would strongly recommend something bigger. You can fit 2 twelves, a 15" possibly 2 if those aren't you maximums. or get the 18". Unless you are looking for a 2 cube box for saving space why not go bigger? And addressing what Emmet pointed out, 10's in a correct enclosure won't sound any better quality wise than 12's, 15's, or 18's in correct enclosures. Edit: Evil post

    Parents are leaving for 15 day trip to Alaska/Canada that my sisters and I got them for Christmas tomorrow. Flying to Seattle, train to Vancouver. 7 night cruise stopping at Whittier, with a 3 day land tour from Denali to Fairbanks by train and flying home! So happy for them!

    Wonder what the forum will be like when all of us are 60-80. Just a bunch of old guys rambling on to each other.

    So when I was filling up my truck this jerk behind me honks at me... Trust me man I would make the gas come out faster if I could.

      I mean why get mad? It's not like the gas isn't going to be there in 4 minutes.

      My gas cap is below my trunk all the way in the back, so I have to pull WAY forward to be able to reach it and I always try to take the further pump so somebody can use the other one, but sometimes I feel like an ass because I take up both spaces and it takes a long ass time to fill 21 gallons......

      It pisses me off when some jerk takes the closer pump, instead of pulling up to the further one that isn't being used.

    Getting quilts foam or anything soft to tie down over our cars to protect from large hail tonight.

      I'm keepin you in my thoughts bud. Best of luck to you, tornado season is a BITCH.

      Secure 2x4 to the "roof. Then make some panels on the bottom. Drive the car under, the tires will be on the bottom panels holding it all in place

      Thanks man, we don't ever get tornadoes too bad here but straight line winds have hit over 75mph quite often and do lots of damage. Thoughts go out to you, your friends, family, and neighbors.

    Got the truck all dipped and now time to start on the insides!

      Didn't like the way the dip turned out or inside then out?

  16. Krakin

    Getting the truck all ready for dipping.

    That's nice

    Got one 10 in on 900w. Just after a week I want to get another 10 and put both on 2k.

      I doubt it would ever be a trailer with kicker L7s LOL.

    I like it, I just ordered the new VVX v2 10, and cannot seem to wait for it any longer.
  20. Krakin
    I am not impressed... with said simplicity.
  21. Krakin
    That is a pretty clean build you got going on there.
  22. Krakin
    Is your cab a 40-20-40 seat Arrangement? If so I have a build I made a while ago for another member on here that fits in the 11.5" space inbetween the two bucket seats and replaces the folding third seat / console. It's for 3 e8-v3s but shouldn't change much with the difference in displacement of the two subs. Edit: I'm on stupid mobile and didn't see you said box is built
  23. Krakin
    Well the specs were just loaded up today I think. So if this thread doesn't get me the clarification I need. Or if it was just an honest mistake it's all good. I really like the specs on this woofer so it'll probably not be too big a deal. I would just like to know it before I buy.
  24. Krakin
    Yeah but a Qms that low? As in below 1??
  25. Krakin
    I was looking at the the T/S for the new releases by Skar to go into a T-line build and I was wondering if the Qms was really what is stated or am I just reading it wrong. I am really interested in getting this new woofer but am holding back until I understand this mishap.
