Mx833 Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 Im buying a newer cavalier and getting ready to start the new system. I want to buy: 2 lv4xl 12's AQ 3500.1 (2) KHC1800's 220 amp alternator question is, what coils would work best if i were to run both xl 12's on the aq 3500, and how should i wire them? also, i want these in the trunk, ported, facing the back. Box should be about 4 cubic feet. Good idea? Let me know what you think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supercharged DCs Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 Two D4ohm subs can be wired down to a 1ohm load on the amp I believe. So I would suggest that. Is that 4 cubic feet before or after displacement? If it's after displacement that seems fine. Quote Bassless once again.

Kranny Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 XL's dont come with d4 coils...says right on the site "d.7, d1, d1.4, d2" get 1 ohm coils and wire like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdorre Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 I would get either D.7 or D1, and wire accordingly to Krannys diagram Quote On 5/8/2011 at 7:38 PM, Kranny said: On 5/8/2011 at 7:35 PM, 'Maxim' said: It hurts me inside when I read stuff like this and remember you're 15 LMFAO so true Mitsubishi 3000GT (Old Build) Headunit: Pioneer 80PRS Frontstage: (2) McLaren Audio MLT-2 Tweeters & (4) PRV Audio MR Series Neo 6.5" Mids Substage: 4 15" Hybrid Subs - Tantric Motors & Sundown Softies Amps: Banda 2.4D Amp (Tweets), American Bass VFL 350.4 (Mids), and (2) Ampere 3800s Electrical :Singer 260A Alt & JY Power Lithium 2005 Chevy Colorado Ext Cab Headunit: Pioneer 80PRS Frontstage: 4 PRV 700Ti Tweets & 6 10" Delta Mids on 3000wrms Substage: 6 Fi BTL 18s in a 4th Order Walkthrough on 3 Wolfram 4500s Electrical: Singer "390" and JY Power My Official Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mx833 Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 that diagram looks great, and d1 coils would be perfect, except i believe the aq3500 (or dc 3.5k) has outputs for multiple speakers(like two pos and two neg i think).. is there way to only run one pos and one neg speaker wire from the amp?

Mx833 Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 and yes, about 4 cub feet AFTER displacement, with a sizeable port, tuned to somewhere around 38hz most likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mx833 Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 Or you could wall it with 18s ^thought about it! i could run the same 3500 amp, and get 2 xl 18's, but i dont know if im capable of constructing a wall yet, i'd need a lot of help!

Mx833 Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 why 38hz? i would tune lower but thats just me had my old lv4's tuned to 32, and i loved the lows. i wouldnt mind tuning that low again, as long as i could still hit my mids and highs..
