412 CVX Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 Put the 12s and 18 in seperate boxes and seperate amps and youll be good. If someone says it wont work, their stupid. well, that's a good first step, but I can't imagine it's something that can be done well just by following a couple rules of thumb. It probably takes a LOT of testing. finding peak frequencies for each driver, graphing frequency responses, etc. there's probably a LOT of trial and error involved as well. On top of all that, you'd have to know what all of the data means, and be able to translate it into the design. overall, it seems like it takes a lot of time, effort, and likely money to get desirable results. Has to be the fucking stupidest response ive seen in my life. Build to boxes at what you want tgem tuned at, put them in the car, hook it up and slap away. Thats all that required. Really? Have you done it before? Quote 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.

Omega5002 Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 I say sell the 2 12's, and get a 2nd btl to save yourself the headache, plus 1 18' has more cone area than 2 12's anyways if that's what you're looking for.

CleanSierra Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 I don't always mix my subs, but when I do, I choose to use the same airspace and amps. Quote Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you done it before? Ive seen it done in person and ive actually heard a system with mixed subs unlike 99.99999% of the know it alls that say not to do it.

412 CVX Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 uhm.. no. steve isn't using his doors as the sub source. it's the mid bass to help fill in the gaps that the 18's don't cover.

Not off of headunit power right? Two separate amps?!?! Edited May 20, 2012 by CleanSierra Quote Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.
