mxman38 Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 I think ive had over ten set ups in my trailblazer ranging from 18's to 15's, which all took up around ten cubes, however, Im doing a few performance mods and want to downsize my system from having a ten cube box to something more convenient. I know i can go smaller and still be around a 150db. I have 1 15" BTL n2 left, and two amps laying around: orion 2500 as well as an xxx4000 soundstream. i plan on sub up port back, but my goals are to stay clean, 4-5cubes max, and over a 147.x. What would yield better results, keeping the 15 and doing a crazy box design ex. aeros/4th order/t-line. Or going with a little more cone area like 2 12" hdc3s with a slot/aero port? I plan on having ram designs do the enclosure again, i just need a little advice as to what combination should work the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 With that power id do 2 12's Quote 2008 California state record holder 157.2 Bassrace2009 California state record holder 157.0 BassraceRollin 50's 158.7db2009 King of Cali Bassrace2009 USACi score 160.5 @ 42hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mxman38 Posted August 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 I guess it would depend which amp i use, the soundstream is an electrical hog... either way i would hope the BTL could take 3k daily? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonedeaf Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 (edited) Like Ray said, 2 12s. You'd need more space for a proper 4th order for that 15", not to mention that powers pushing it. Cone area+motor force = . Edit: Thought the XXX line did over rated. Maybe thats at higher voltage.

mxman38 Posted August 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 so then would you rule out 4 10's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonedeaf Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 4 10s youd probably be looking at 1.2-1.6 per 10 depending on the subs, so you could make it within spec. But how much money are you wanting to spend. Cone area goes only so far when it comes to number of subs IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
