HunterJohnson Posted May 25, 2012 Report Posted May 25, 2012 What would be the drawbacks of using subs in a smaller ported air space than recommended!? I know it's not right I just want to know why Thanks Scion tC SQ BuildiPad mini, lots of fabrication, daily drivenFord Explorer C Pillar Wall Build Just a cheap car to destroy with bass

IndianaBassHead Posted May 25, 2012 Report Posted May 25, 2012 Honestly not sure if that'll be enough for 15s lol. Depending what they are. Not a good idea trying to squeeze 18s in that small of an enclosure.

HunterJohnson Posted May 25, 2012 Author Report Posted May 25, 2012 I'm thinking either skar vvx 15's or sa-15's I just wanna kno the drawbacks on putting them in a small enclosure.

getlocivic Posted May 25, 2012 Report Posted May 25, 2012 4.4 is for 12s.. real small box like that..get hot faster not as musical and prolly fuck the subs up in time;; there is a reason why manufactures suggest a "general" box
HunterJohnson Posted May 26, 2012 Author Report Posted May 26, 2012 I'm asking why it messes up the subs and yeah I'm running 2 12's right now. I wanna go louder but there's no room unless I wall my ride Scion tC SQ BuildiPad mini, lots of fabrication, daily drivenFord Explorer C Pillar Wall Build Just a cheap car to destroy with bass
getlocivic Posted May 26, 2012 Report Posted May 26, 2012 I'm asking why it messes up the subs and yeah I'm running 2 12's right now. I wanna go louder but there's no room unless I wall my ride 15s or 18s wont work in that small of space..forget it.. u wanna get louder?? get better 12" subs and amp or a single bigger 15.. 90% of 15s out there work well with 3 to 5 cu ft
HunterJohnson Posted May 26, 2012 Author Report Posted May 26, 2012 Ur missing my question. I'm asking WHY subs don't do good in under recommended space... Scion tC SQ BuildiPad mini, lots of fabrication, daily drivenFord Explorer C Pillar Wall Build Just a cheap car to destroy with bass
john253a Posted May 26, 2012 Report Posted May 26, 2012 8x sa8v2 =402" of cone and this fits easily into 4.4net 2x 15= 353" 2x 18= 508" will never fit in 4.4
