Leaning heavy to a Skar 15 BUT.....


Recommended Posts

Ok i have a single 15 custom slot ported box, specs are 3.5 cubes net 15 inches port per cube with a tuning of 34-35hz.

Music likes range from techno, rock, to deep hitting rap.

I want to keep the output of my kicker cvx but i want a siginificant upgrade on SQ and deep clean bass.

Power is 1000rms but im a little scared that my tuning is really high and that the skars would somehow be less clean sounding and just not the perfect box for them.

Also was considering a sundown sa 15 since im tuned pretty high but the price is literally $60 more and i dont know if its really worth it unless you guys think so.

Any advice?

I dont know how those skars will sound overpowered. What kind of amp?

Yeah im not going to clip them never blew a sub before since i was always extra careful with setting amps but is this tuning high?

The fs is low on the skar and i heard a while back that low fs and higher tuning would make a sub sound peaky? I dont know but i want to purchase really soon so i need advice.

I don't see why you think that's a high tuning? :shrug:

I was tuned to 40Hz and played White Girl just fine. And killed on double bass and such.

Just get whatever you want. :)

^^^What he said. 34-35 Hz is great for a daily listening box. It'll get down into the 20's just fine, and hit bass drum kicks in Rock and metal JUST fine. Go with the Skar and see how you like it.

Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.

Cool im going to ask for a d2 15 and order.

Just for kicks as far as sounding better and louder who would get the nod if i were to drop in an sa 15 compared to what im going to drop in, skar 15.

This setup will go in an 02 trailblazer with an already installed kicker cvx 15 in that custom box.

Hopefully i can get some more skar people to comment on this thread today.
