onebadmonte Posted September 6, 2011 Report Posted September 6, 2011 Oh no, you got spam in your thread. ^^^^ Back on topic. That is one hell of a motor you are giving up in that Solo X. It's a little tricky to unload as well, being they are such expensive subs. I would try to find another on the cheap and re-basket/re-cone them round to 18s. At 3500 watts you'll be short on power to fully utilize those motors though. If you can't up the anty on the power I'd go for a cone area build using a half a dozen or so low power woofers. Don't be stuck on a ported alignment. Half a dozen sealed tens will surprise you. The induction on them would be low meaning lower distortion. An added install trick would be to invert mount half of them and wire them so the cones move in phase with each other. This would reduce you 2nd order harmonic distortion giving you an even cleaner sound. As for which one to go with, I'd recommend the Fi X 10. Sealed .5 cuft ea, six would be a force to be reckoned with. With the air space required for 3 SA 15s, about 5 cuft ea, you can do 30 ten inch Fi X sealed off the same power (3500 watts) and be way louder. Just a little food for thought.

727Designs Posted September 6, 2011 Report Posted September 6, 2011 I think we are going to try to get his 3 SA15's in about 3.25 each net, box will be about the same physical size as what he's running, but tweaked to get under the window line. I'd like to see a bunch of 10's too, but that would screw him in his classes in the series he's competing in. Plus I doubt he'd want to drop the coin for it. 3 15's on 3,500 watts will still have him in a fairly low class, if he breaks a 50 he will be one of 4 people that have in that class all year. -Zach-2010 Toyota TundraFull Hybrid Audio SQ 7" BDS on 37's 2000 Ford Expedition 160+ dB Green Turd -SOLD-

EBW Posted September 7, 2011 Report Posted September 7, 2011 3 15s on 3500 is a fairly low class? In what competition? Below window line? MECA is below headrest isn't it?

You'd be in Advanced 2 for wattage, but due to being over the window line you'd be considered a wall, so you'd actually end up in a higher class. -Zach-2010 Toyota TundraFull Hybrid Audio SQ 7" BDS on 37's 2000 Ford Expedition 160+ dB Green Turd -SOLD-
