The upgrade bug is biting the shit outta me!


Recommended Posts

Mehhh id go with 4 cubes after displacement for either of them. But for tuning id go with 30-32hz on the vvxs and 34-36 on the sa. But thats just my opinion.

I have a pair of vvx 12s and am very satisfied with them. Im running about 1700rms to the pair and they barely get warm. They are great subs but i doubt youll notice a gain besides playing the lows a bit better. Those sa's can take a bit more abuse than the vvxs too.

If that's the case, i'm sure I could accomplish that by building a different box

Yes id recommend building a new box for them. They do require a lil different net volume and tuning to sound the best.

Gonna have to start figuring out the design, all I know is I want an aero port this time.

Get another 1500 for the Sundowns and watch them bitches dance haha!

If I had the electrical I would.

Why would you tune so high with the SA's? With my current setup I can play down into the mid to low 20's with authority and i'm tuned to 32Hz.

Just because its closer to the subs fs. I wish i could say the same about the vvxs but that would worry me about how well it would sound. In my opinion tuning below 30hz is kinda pointless. If im not mistaken Chode is tuned somewhere in the 40s and apparently he plays nasty lows.

check out this vid anton made. He's ran both sa 12s and vvx 12s and he says they are pretty much the same except the vvx is more of a low end monster.

was that boxed ported or sealed?

Yes it depends on the sub, enclosure design, cabin frequency, and other factors.
