ToddB Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 Need to know how well a DC Audio Lv4 12" will work in a sealed box. This is going in a 2011 Camaro convertible. When the top is down the maximum height of the box can only be 8'' It can be up to 22" wide and 24" long. I plan on having this box down firing with 1" spacers on the bottom. I would love to do a ported but don't know if i can port it out the side. I am new at building boxes. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FroznBeavrBALLs Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 your gonna need more than an inch for the excursion of a lvl 4. i think the surrounds sits close to 1inch while not playing.... can u do anything angled? be creative when designing the box because as it sits now i dont think u can do it with a 12" sub. Do u already have the lvl 4? 2 DC 12" lvl 4s 1 DC 1.2k XS Power S3400 big 3 Alll KNU wire Pioneer HU cheapo Legacy coaxes (just for now) http://www.stevemead...n-sentra-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEEMDUB Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 well with that size box you could go ported man, and what frozn said about the inch of clearance for the sub.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToddB Posted February 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 I can build the box angled . 7.5" up front and about 11" in back for the height. Up to 19" deep and 23" wide. These are max dimensions for one sub woofer. I am going to put one on the right and one on the left side of the trunk. I will wire the coils for each 2 ohm sub in series for 4 ohm. Then in parallel to the amp for a 2 ohm load.I already put in 4 sets of component speakers up front with 150 watt per ch amp. just need some low end now. I have not built a ported box before. I am a welder/fabricater so i can build just about anything with a plan. Been doing car stereo for 20 years. Thanks for the help. Ps I dont have the subs yet. I got prices for 2 lv4 12" subs yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
