john253a Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 (edited) Is this box in the trunk of car And you say Aq1200, is that current mdl amp and what ohm sub did you get Edited June 7, 2012 by john253a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john253a Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 also another thing to consider is adding another sub, it will make building the box a lot easier, if you want port/sub to face same direction, it's hard to get a good high to width ratio, your amp will handle it and not need upgrading and 600-700 a piece @ 1ohm (depending on what your current ohm sub is) even at @ ohm they will still hit hard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAM_Designs Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 My Max dimensions are 15 h, 40 w and 20 d. Really easy to make it work in those dimensions...

bkolfo4 Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 i dont know what your definition of the lows is but with 1 8 that is hard to do. at least personally 1 8 cant give me th elows i like. pretty much you have to tune lower to protect the speaker and its suspension. tuning lower drops the f3 point of the enclosure and will let you play lower safer. To clarify - 1 8 does not give you the OUTPUT you like. There are plenty of 8's that will produce good bass down low. I have a pair of 6.5" drivers in a ported box playing flat to 28 Hz in open space (no cabin gain). They only make 110 dB, but they will get low.

A.Smo Posted June 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 Is this box in the trunk of car And you say Aq1200, is that current mdl amp and what ohm sub did you get Yes, Its in the trunk of a 2004 Saturn Ion 2(the coupe one). What do you mean by mdl amp? And D2. also another thing to consider is adding another sub, it will make building the box a lot easier, if you want port/sub to face same direction, it's hard to get a good high to width ratio, your amp will handle it and not need upgrading and 600-700 a piece @ 1ohm (depending on what your current ohm sub is) even at @ ohm they will still hit hard When money comes around, I plan on adding another sub/maybe bigger amp also. But I made a deal with my gf first, I spend around 450 for everything I need, she gets a nice new $700 camera. Just awesome. My Max dimensions are 15 h, 40 w and 20 d. Really easy to make it work in those dimensions... You sir, are awesome. PM coming.

I met up with a guy here in Az and let him listen to it. He was surprised how low and decently loud it got. He has 2 lvl4 18 on a 2500 watt amp. As a newb, I'm ok with it.
