I just want to know why that 3500 is only doing 1000-1500??? Is his rise really hurting him that much? Can someone please explain? :drinks:

Thats typical power after rise for most daily boxes.

I usually see 2.5x rise.

And a 44 with 3k trunk is a good score.

you know rise is caused from the box correct? the way you keep saying it you make it seem like its the amp, his box is prolly terrible.. in my own setup i only clamped 2,3xx out of mine rising from .5 to 2.6 (which is way more than even its 2 ohm rating)

Well see that makes a lot more sense to me, he must have a HUGE amount of rise then correct? Like, he is prolly rising from something like .5 to 4.2 or some crazy number like that?

So I guess I need to learn what exactly it is about the box that creates the rise, so I can try to avoid as much as possible? Sorry I am TRYING to learn? :peepwall:

from my understanding, larger boxes usually help knock down rise, as well as direct connections from the amp to the woofers.. speaker terminals/bolts can help factor into rise.. theres no way to get 100% around it, and musical rise is way different than 1 note rise, on music frequencies are constently changing so you can be rising anywere from 2-4 even 8

my old kicker CVX12s on my aq1200d i was rising to just over 3 ohms, i bypassed the speaker terminals and went directly from amp to woofers and kept it to around 2.5, gained about .8 musically, i went from 142s on music to just over 43s

i have 3 powerbass 4ks and 3 12xls and each is wired at 1 ohm in my s10 and i get about 15 to 1700 because of box rise wich sucks but i still did a 152.2 at 41 hz (with driver door open) and im tuned to 33 for a daily groundpounder but any way the point is i have about 2 ohms of box rise even tho im wired at 1 ohm so if that guy has a ram and is still getting 1000 to 1500 id say that amp is doing just fine . theres alot of ways to determine box rise but you most likely just gotta try diff stuff in spl but im extremly happy for getting what im getting and still having a box under my window line

Edited by jakobebassbudds

2 12ks and i dont know what to do

build in the works!

Thanks man, that helps me understand a lot. So would the reason 4th orders do well be related to this?
