c_stud Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 I just preordered my skar vvx15 dual 4 i plan on wiring it at 2 ohms on a planet audio 300.4. Now my real question is do i put it in a smaller box for the less watts than capable like 1.5-2 cubes tuned to 32hz or do i put it in a bigger box like 3.5-4 cubes tuned to 32 hz 1998 Nissan 200sx NOW: Dex-p98r head Planet Audio 300.4 mids and highs Planet Audio/Pioneer tweeters/crossovers Skar SK1500.1 3 SKAR Vvx15 dual 4 wired at .63 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmander11 Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 The sub is 600 RMS from what I can tell? It will be @ 4 ohms on 2 channels. You should really get a monoblock... Seeing as it's a PA Amp who knows if it does what it's rated at. It looks like you will be running it at what it's rated at for RMS (hopefully) so check what size they recommend for a box and go from there. I'm not knowledgeable about sub boxes but maybe someone who is will pop by. If you don't mind me asking... what did you pay for a 600 RMS 15"?

jmander11 Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 If it's not too late to cancel the transaction... 15" Alpine Type R for $199.95 shipped. http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B000NT2E98/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&qid=1318635038&sr=1-1&condition=new From first hand experience... Don't go by Alpine's box recommendations... I had a 3 cube box with their port size and recommended tuning of 30hz... and it was garbage. The other one was 6 cubes or something tuned to 25hz and DOMINATED the low lows and medium lows. The 3 cube box did not hit the lows at all >.>. I sold it with the 3 cube box to my friend with a 300zx hatchback and the subs way better in there. Stupid hatchbacks >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAM_Designs Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 Get an amp that can properly power that sub. It's a D2 sub, so finding 600-1000 watts at 1ohm isn't too hard to do.
