DCMUSTANGXL Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 I currently have a set up consisting of a single 15" DC xl on a DC 1.2 in a 00 mustang in a 3.5 cube box, not sure what the tune is I want to add another 15" xl and another 1.2 as a slave amp The problem is that I can barely squeeze the current box I have in my trunk in there now, I actually had to take out the rear seats and cut the metal behind the seat, put the box in and re install my seats. If I did double my system will I be wasting my time and money since I can't really get a bigger box? I do have a little more room to make the box a little deeper into my trunk, but not much. A single DC xl 15" is rated to go in a 3.5 cube ported box. Can anyone help me out, maybe give me some tips? All help appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stang_01 Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 do some 12's instead it would give you more room for box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was pretty easy to get in once I took the seats out. I've messed around with this system so much. But getting a new car is out of the question. I love my stang, just wish it had more room in the ass end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dailyspl Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Yeah go to 12s with proper box size it will sound better than 15s in a shitty box Quote 99 expedition Two 15 inch dc audio xls Ported box tunned to 34 hrtz Soundstream pcx.2000d(better amp soon) 0 gauge big three(soon) Yellow top,(more batts soon) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had 12's, I prefer the lows that I get from my 15's but I want to put another sub, but I want to do it as correctly a possible even though I know I will be going below specs on the box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IH8PunkRok Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 your 15 wont do lows any better than a 12 will just tune correctly push your box back as far as possible and throw some power to it easy my single 12 did a 141.7 on the dash on music. decently loud. 142.8 at the head but trust me when i say this, do not try and stuff 15s into a mustang trunk. not worth it Quote -Matt2005 Dodge Magnum RTJVC KD-AVX1 2 PPI S580.2 Obsidian Audio ST1 Horn Tweeters PRV 8MB450s Audio Legion 3500.1D 2 RE MT 18s 360 ah LiFePO4 BatterySHCA 2/0 155.2 @ 29 hzKicker CVR 15's buildDD 3512e buildMini T-Line Build(6) 8s BuildNightshade 15s Wall BuildMagnum AB XFL 12s BuildNewest Magnum Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dailyspl Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Have you thought about a single 18? Just get a recone kit for your xl.
