boltdbz Posted February 17, 2013 Report Posted February 17, 2013 I have a 95 Honda Civic, trunk is leaky so I've got 2 p3 12's in a prefab ported box with a Hifonics BRZ1200; running at 1 ohm. I've noticed the range on the low end is sort of limited, what's my problem? Will a custom box help? Or maybe I need to increase the ohmage
Watch the bass Posted February 17, 2013 Report Posted February 17, 2013 Custom box would help, and your sub´s are medium SQ and your amp under medium SQ quality. "in the abundance of water, the fool is thirsty" Bob Marley
boltdbz Posted February 17, 2013 Author Report Posted February 17, 2013 Custom box would help, and your sub´s are medium SQ and your amp under medium SQ qualit The new p3s? My buddy has two and they sound clean as can be. The amp I'm not sure about, what do you know about Hifonics?
AI James Posted February 17, 2013 Report Posted February 17, 2013 Lawls. Buy better equipment. Asking if a custom box would help means you haven't done any research whatsoever. Check tuning, low pass, subsonic, deck settings, box tuning. Could go on and on all day.

And I've done quite a few of those things; all I'm looking for are suggestions on what all should be on my checklist. so thanks

White Lightning Posted February 18, 2013 Report Posted February 18, 2013 Ok ... So you are saying that your trunk leaks water when it rains, so you have your enclosure installed on your back seat ... Meaning that your enclosure is being muffled by your back seat ... even worse ... this tells me that you actually have no idea what your current setup is capable of ... Like I said ... get your car fixed before you go spending money on product that will not do any better than what you have in your current install ... I'm not trying to be a pain in the ass in any way Sir, but I can tell you that no good can come from a sub enclosure "laying" on your back seat, Its loosing about 50% of it's capabilities (guestamation of course) ...
