siucsaluki11 Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 Im looking into the SA8 v2. Im currently running 2 12s in my trunk, and for the time being, i would like to get 1 8 and see what i can get out of it, then eventually go to 2 8s. I just love the idea of getting loud off 8s. I have been toying with a 4th order design. What would be some good specs for a 4th order for one of these little guys? If i get one, i plan on trying it in a number of enclosures, trying to see what works best and what i like most. I kinda want to get one of these to run my own little audio experiments with. But i don't know a lot about 4th orders, but i worked up a design for a single one of these. Comes down to Sealed: 0.6 cubes Ported: 1.4 cubes tuned to 45-46Hz and 31sq in of port area (always heard run lots of port with 4th orders) I have a LOT more room in my trunk than this. Im pretty sure i could run a pair of these in a 4th order if i wanted, i think i have enough space. Basically, i want to start with one of these, and experiment with different enclosures over time. But i want to start with a 4th order. What do you guys think of the specs for this? What would you change, and for what reason (not because i know everything, but i want to know why I'm wrong). Think one of these could handle 750-800w daily? I know this won't be as loud as my 12s, and i really don't care, i want to see what i can do with some 8s. Start with one, get the most i can out of it (overall, SQL, not SQ, not SPL) then get a 2nd, then maybe one day get a 3rd. I have enough room for 3 DD1508s ported, i know that, so i imagine i could fit 3 of these ported.

Krayzie Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 There is always something you can do about the folding seats. Right now in my 05 impala (which also doesn't have folding seats) I'm working on actually converting them to folding. You can also cut a hole in the top of the rear allowing sound waves to enter the cabin easier. I only mention this to hopefully spark some ideas since I can tell you don't REALLY need advice (especially not from me). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 I'm currently running one sa v2 8 in the trunk of my Jetta. It's a beast of a sub that is for sure. Waiting for my second one right now. Guess the factory was short v2 motors and have to wait for the next shipment to come in for my second 8. I'm actually planning on running them in a 4th order on 700 watts. After looking and holding the v2, I believe they can take 800 watts or so no problem. But like any sub when you are over powering, you got to know it's limits. I would plan on putting the motor structure in the ported section so you can smell if you are getting the coils too hot. Quote formerly known as Blue86f150 its a 4th order just because its tuned in the 40z doesnt mean it wont reach down and jiggle your balls at sub 30 hz frequencies. Regardless if they were dipped platinum and were stuffed in Beyonce's twat.....way too fucking exspensive this sux camel dicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siucsaluki11 Posted July 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 That was already the plan. I wanna go with one of these cuz I'm bored with my stereo, i don't care if 1 8 won't be as loud as 2 12s, i more just want to have something i can experiment with, and 1 quality 8 leaves lots of room for that, lol. LMK how that 4th order sounds. Quote woman..cant live with em...cant shoot em...guess were all fucked You might be a Redneck if you use your leftover gutters for a speaker box port...
