scottam Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 im upgrading soon, 2 grand is my budget for now, i have a really crappy system now- 2 kicker comp c on a 750 zx kicker amp. my car is a saturn ion 3, i was hoping for some advise from a couple seasoned bass heads, i was leaning towards 2 dd 3512s on a 2500 watt amp most likely mtx just because i have one sitting around. custom ported box 4 cubic feet total 2 for ea sub. any input would be great on what would slam this little 2 door with 2 gs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe X Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 (edited) DD 3512 drivers require 2.5 cubic feet and 40 square inches of port area per sub, if you don't have nearly the specified space better get other drivers if you do post your maximum dims.

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.

Joe X Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Guys have succeded using 2.3 cubes per driver, plus a large port area, if you pay DD prices you want to get the most out of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
412 CVX Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Joe X. He pretty much just copies and pastes whatever he sees. Doesn't really understand what he's talking about. He pretty much proved it in that statement right there. Quote Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs.
