Go-N-Def Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Whats the best way to get cone area? Is it with a few large subs or lots of small subs, and possibly in the middle with medium size 12's Quote Yo dog i heard you like boxes. so i put a box inside a box so you can bass while you FAIL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkolfo4 Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Have to look at what will fit and how much power you plan to use. Quote Current system: 1997 Blazer - (4) Customer Fi NEO subs with (8) American Bass Elite 2800.1s Previous systems: 2000 Suburban - (4) BTL 15's and (4) IA 40.1's = 157.7 dB at 37 Hz. 1992 Astro Van - (6) BTL 15's and (6) IA 40.1's = 159.7 dB at 43 Hz.

FreekDesignz Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Well 2 15's has more cone than 1 18". And you could put either one in a 7-8ft^3 box and sound good. But I would go for a few large (15"-18") subs.

Mha Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 So if a dc level 5 12 and 15 both do 2k watts how much louder are we talking hear with a 12 vs 15? I have been looking into this since space is limited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LT.Smoke Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 NO ONE can answer that question... Every aspect of the build will determine that...From how well box is built...tooo how much Imp. Rise you get to how much pressure is lost through out the car.... But generally a 15 should get a lil louder because its a larger driver... Im talkin in IDENTICAL SETUPS aspect just as a reference for you...THis is NOT always the case Quote Team MaxRetribution Si Vis Pacem Parabellum Id rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6 Bowhunting- Life Begins and Ends at Full Draw Bowhunting Team Fatal Trajectory Hunt Team http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/49335-sick96vtecaccords-t-line-build/?hl=sick96vtecaccord << Accord Build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/68498-smokedout08impalas-tline-build/?hl=+sick96vtecaccord << Impala T-line build Rebassed.com for all your music needs 👌 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonedeaf Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 My woofers make 5000 watts. Many aspects come into play as well as motorforce. There's no 'more cone area will be louder. Look at dbdon doing 162s iirc with only 4 15"s. Some guys aren't hitting that with 6 18s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
