HunterJohnson Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 why not an sa-15 or something like that? Does it have to be an 18. I can tell you from experience the sa will take that 1700 all day clean power Quote Scion tC SQ BuildiPad mini, lots of fabrication, daily drivenFord Explorer C Pillar Wall Build Just a cheap car to destroy with bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevyBoy95 Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 or a dc Level 4 or 5? The Q and the DC work in larger enclosures ( about 6 cubes and above) the Zv.3 works in 4-5 cubes that's a big difference when lacking space, if going with those other brands better a couple of 12s which will fit in 4.5-5 cubes comfortably but two subs will cost more and need more power. where did you hear this? have you used them in smaller than recommended enclosures? yes they work in larger enclosures but can perform extremely well in small enclosures too. level 5 18s can be ran down to 5.5 cubes if paired with the right power levels. I ran one in 5.5 and it worked wonderfully, just 3k wouldnt really move it too much. edit: with only 1700 rms and 6 gross, i would look into lower powered 18s in the 1000rms range so the extra power in the smaller box. Getting an XL or level 5 would be pointless anyway on that power in around 5-5.5 cubes. Yes you have a point there, i was looking at the Audio Que HD318. rated at only 1000 watts, not too bad? except AQ does like BIG boxes for the most part, so running under 6.5cubes could be an issue, i would pm ami customs, he has ran AQ 18s for quite sometime and knows a good amount about what they like and dont like. here is his profile link http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/user/39011-ami-customs/ Quote Best Score to Date : 160.5 dB Outlaw (47Hz)[4 XM 15's & 2 Taramps Bass 12k's] BL : http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/147800-chevyboy95s-4-15s-7krms-wall-1533-db-on-half-power/YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/hitemwiththeflex/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet you could wire the amp to 1 ohm with one of the subs mentioned and be blown away. what is your port area btw?
