need help for my next build on my walled silverado


Recommended Posts

There is over 1k difference between the runner up sub and those James recommends. All of the above choices will get loud but there are clear lines of demarcation in cost. I looked up the cone area's of the installs.

8 12's = 902 (not sure the cost for these james can you give an approximate figure per sub?)

6 15's = 1060 (cost per sub 300-700 so 1800 to 4200) (recones 100 to 150 or more with the dd)

4 18's = 1017 (cost per sub 300-700 so 1200 to 2100) (recones 100 to 150 or more with the dd)

What are some known problems with each setup are?

  • 4 subs to 10k cooling
  • 8 subs phase issues
  • 8 subs compression issues
  • ???

If we could discuss the negatives of each type of install I believe we could narrow the field somewhat and come to a reasonable conclusion.

just so you know the DD recones are the same prices unless you are trying to do custom coils or composite cones etc.

Dustin, the guy with the guy with the 8 3512s on 8 DDM2As is from Mississippi, not Louisiana. Wish he was though, so I could get a demo. He has switched his build to 4 9515s on 2 M2As at .5ohm strapped for each subwoofer, and he said it's louder now then with the 3512s.

Bassless once again. Can't seem to keep a system for more than a few weeks :)

Saving for a '06 Nissan 350z, look for build around June 2012.

The OP didn't complain about someone suggesting other options. I don't know why your panties are all in a bunch.

Chill out dude. At least James' post was close to being on topic...you're no where near it.

James gave his thoughts on the matter as he normally does. That's kinda the point of a forum.

You may be offended by the above. Don't take it personally, I'm just abrasive.
