ANYWAYS my questions are, could i wire my hifonics BRZ2400.1 to 4ohms on my SINGLE 15" RE SX DVC 2 ohm sub? i think it does like 900rms@4 ohms, and 1700rms@ 2 ohms.. so id like to use my new amp that is still packaged lol, bass knob for the win. also im wondering will a single 15" RE SX or a single 15" Rockford Hx2 out-slam my 2 kicker cvr's on 1000 watts? thanks guys!

Louisiana Bass Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 Which will be louder, we can't tell you. Just wanted to chime in and see why you don't just build your own enclosure for those 15"s? N8. No homo...unless you want there to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michigancapri92 Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 prefab = fail ... seriously take a good 30 minutes on the forum read and take your time, the amount difference between a pre-fab and a self built one is infinite. not to mention when you look at the box and say you built it ... so what if it has blemishes ... just gives people proof its not a pre-fab !!

RooTxBeeR Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 I can agree with the prefab fails, I used to have a 1.8 cu sealed box for my 2 jbl 10's on a mtx amp putting 425 watts at 4 ohms. I built a new box tuned to 32 Hz, that amp blew so now I am running a alpine that puts out 50 watts, lol. And it hits harder now than it did before.

iceman1575 Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 Usually places like Lowes or Home Depot will precut the wood for you if you ask them nicely. Just give them dimensions, cut a set of holes for the sub cutouts, & go to work, just use some good wood glue & some screws, let dry, and bingo. POTATO!
