Lbox88 Posted July 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 hey man an 18 is possible i fit an AQ hdc3 18 on a AQ2200 in my trunk it def got down! but it was a major bitch to fit that 6+cu box through the back seat and into the trunk lol. go with the 2 beefy 12s That's exactly why I didn't go with an 18. I want loud, but since I might not have this car a year from now I want stuff I can get out lol. After looking up prices, I think I will end up going with T3. I've been talking with JD and I'm willing to give them a chance after everything the company's been through. Going with 2 T.1000 12's and just have to decide between white Kevlar, black carbon, and whatever the red is laid on. Most people who've had them, love them. I know they had their problems and are trying to get back on their feet, and if I can help them do that by trading my hard cash for their product, I'll at least give it a try... once. Oops. Forgot I have to convince the ol' lady. Guess I'll have to take her to the movies, buy her dinner, and a new dress. That oughtta shut her up for a little while. At least until I get the new amp.

Later tonight I will be posting a funny/horror video from when I was bored at my bachelor party last weekend. UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbox88 Posted July 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 New subs have been ordered. Went with 2 12" T.1000's from T3, and now it's time to get building a box. Let me know what you think, this is the first design I was thinking. Both 12's in one box with an L-Port design. The specs are: Here's my initial design: With 0.16 ft^3 of displacement each for a total of 0.32 ft^3 taken off the 2.687 ft^3 total box volume after port displacement gives me 2.367 ft^3 for the subs. Take a look at this and give me any suggestions you have. UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torres Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 port is kinda thin for my liking. also i'd do a little more port area and stay away from the RE audio calc, it tends to be off some. that says you're tuned to 33 hz, when realistically you're tuned to almost 36 hz before any sub or bracing displacement, so it'll only go higher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still trying to learn how to use yours lol, guess I'll look at it some more later today. UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbox88 Posted July 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 Ok, messed with Torres calc to get my values this time and just plugged them into RE's calc for a visual aid. Here's what I have, let me know if there's any problems/suggestions: UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6berry Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 Here's my initial design: I like that box and it should sound pretty good. i would recommend more port area though and also trying to make your port open as close to in between the subs as possible so you dont have to worry about unloading on the one closer to the port 1999 Audi A4 1.8T::: 4 - DC Level 3 10's in a 4th order Rockford P6002 on Subs for now (3-3.5k coming eventually) MB Quart ONX4.60 for Mids and Highs Boston S50 Components in Front Boston S65 Coaxials in Rear 40 Sq Ft of Second Skin Damplifier Build Thread UBL 1948 Plymouth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus I'd be running lower on box volume for the subs. UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
