ok so i have a pair of older mtx thunder 7000 15"s.

the time is about to come where i can afford an amp and to be able to make a box.

i was told these subs dont like ported boxs.

i was wondering if i should do a 4th order or just go sealed?

specs :http://archive.mtx.com/caraudio/archive/thunderSub7158.cfm

thoughts? if i do go 4th order how big would i be looking at? im gunna run them on about 600 rms for now......(when i get an amp)

i think there real i was looking through that guys stuff he sells and it looks like he finds stuff at auctions and just sells it

Yea, it looks like someone got the mids about a month ago....shit. If I had a whole Hertz front stage my ears would jizz all over my cheeks.

My Low Budget Build:

Green 1995 Subaru Legacy wagon 147k- $1K

headunit- pioneer premier deh-p650-$25

4 Lead acid batts. 1 up front and 3 in back- vented outside.- $50

4 vvme L11 10"s <- $30 shipped a piece

6 cu. ft box (after displacment) tuned to 32ish hz with 10 inch sonotube. -about $50 all together maybe a lil more

2 aspm 1300 strapped

Selenium 6"s in the front doors on headunit power- for now -$20

quantum tweets in door-for now -$10

boston acoustic 5 1/4 in rear doors- for now-Free

big 3

1/0 and 4awg throughout.

roof sound deadened (not peel n seal ftw)-free

on 80 amp alt (bench tested to put out 100 amps faithfully) <--?-$10 for test

about $430 for everything<----Not bad at all

still gotta add 3 way crossover, amp for front and rear door speakers and maybe eq

ok.

95 subaru legacy wagon

back seats fold down so i have the whole back of the car.....space really isnt an issue.

im gunna go with the audiopipe apsm-1500.... so 500 rms @ 4 ohms.... later down the road im getting another and 2 obsidian audio 15"s and putting an amp to each

but for now this will do

from the hatch to the back of the front seats is like 5 feet prolly more.

side to side at smallest 3.5 feet ( under-estimation) to be safe

i cant find my tape measure lol otherwise i would give you accurate measurements

i think there real i was looking through that guys stuff he sells and it looks like he finds stuff at auctions and just sells it
