Joe X Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Because obviously it wasn't getting ANY hits and was in the wrong place so I made another one since I found the correct place with much more success I've been researching and trying to find stuff about these subs and the box forever and not getting anywhere so ya I made another post...glad I did And ya well I can't afford the money on most equipment like thay how much does a dmm cost....and well.of course most people don't own tools such as those example no one I know...just saying its not due to me not wanting to but lack of availability on stuff or help or good advice even At this moment I wouldn't know how you could use the multimeter but here is one for $4.19 shipped: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-LCD-Digital-Voltmeter-Ammeter-Ohm-Multimeter-DT830B-Overload-Protection-Top-/280794351037?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4160a5c5bd If you really want to get somewhere on designing a proper box you will need the thiele-small parameters of those subwoofers.

Joe X Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 I just dontbknow where to get the box specs for these subs at all.... And thanks but I have a multimeter I found the parameters for those drivers so to see what you are missing let me know the exact dimensions of the box you are running them that includes the port dimensions and what is your complaint, you want them to be louder?, lower? or what.

des343 Posted January 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 http://www.crutchfield.com/p_107DB1222/Polk-Audio-db1222.html?tp=112 I don't know the current specs exactly its the Polk audio box that is in that link but modes to fit tens. And I want better power (loudness) and maybe even lower idk what this box is tuned at? I just want to be able to play to the atrenths of my subs.

C-Fizzy Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 If you want the most out of those subs, you need to build a VERY efficient box for them. Whether it be a 4th/6th order, t-line, folded horn, etc. under construction I hate People with crappy primered cars rolling on hubcaps that are louder then me. u hate c-fizzy?

getlocivic Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 terminology is what lost us. Flex is what a vehicle does, excursion is what a sub does. They are NOT interchangeable. Tune to 50Hz and play stuff at 25Hz, you'll have plenty of excursion...until the subs bottom out and blow LOL Throw RMS at the subs and put them in an enclosure on the big side of recommended specs, that should push them to full excursion, especially on lower notes. Thank you for actually answering..so your saying tune the box to 50hz should i do that with a sealed or ported for best performance? and are you saying that trying to do this will blow them? i mean if i set my gains correctly i should be alright i figured.. but what do you mean play stuff at 25hz like the song itself or a setting on the amp? this made me lol And yeah sorry i figured it would b the same?? But yeah my bad on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
412 CVX Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 probably the easiest thing to do right now, on top of what was already mentioned (set your gains right!) would be to build a new, properly tuned enclosure for the subs. send me a pm and i can help you come up with a good design. Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs. My temp system build log More box buildssome cars do over 170db with one sub, so clearly my two 12"s can do that in my car, with my knowledge too! look out bitches! I'm with captain stupid.

And okay PM sent! THANK YOU Unbolt every panel for flex and all stock supports for roof and all that cut them off also fill every hole with lose screws and a few rocks for that extra rattle effect, Why would u want flex idgi lol funny stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
