Need advice on enclosure for DD 9512

[12volt_Trini]

i have a DD9512

Problem is the company advises tht the box be 2.5 cubes but i have alot more space

Intial box design would be 15" height, 36" width and 18" depth

for me to achieve 38 hz the port is 13.5 height, 4" width and 18" depth

net volume is 3.82 cubes i would like to kno if this is goin to work it is goin in a corolla wagon

ohhh and im using 2 5500 power acoustik BAMF is strapped config for now see how tht goes along

nobody knows if its going to work for sure. You have to just try it out. those amps are bad though...DD sub and PA amps...??

Lol when u say Bad wat exactly u gettin at bad in a good way or in a bad way?....i have read that the speaker over excorts and damages in too big of an enclosure?

and the amplifiers are temporary i used them on a atomic apx 12 strapped at 2 ohms and i got 148.6 dbs window down.

Like those amps are not good lol no other way to put it.

put the sub in 2-3 cubes. All i can really say. I still dont know what these subs like tbh.

148.6db means nothing to me too

A DD vs. Power Acoustik deathmatch, to avoid giving too much advantage to DD its placed on a 3.8 cubes box. Can't wait to see what happens

quad 4 gauge inputs!!! Im sure itll do fine. if dd can take a wall socket for 28 mins, 2 bamf 5500s .. meh. seriously just set the gains right and dont clip the hell outta it. itll be decent.

i wouldnt do those amps on that sub in a huge box either

[12volt_Trini]

so its a definite no no on the bamfs....i was thinkin to use them to break in the sub then probably shift to the mtx te4001d....wat do u guys think?

i mean its a cheap amp is all.. power is power... to a point i guess. but for 240 a pop, $480 you could not only simplify the install with a single BETTER amp. But likely put out more power, be more stable, and all for the same or about the same price. <---- When all 3 of those conditions are true you know that there is a better decision to be made.

Example:

And there are plenty options. and im not saying this is the best simply an example ONLY. Crescendo bc2000 around the same price, they used to be alot less. 2200w of clean power, very stable amp even under abusive ohm loads etc.

theres better decisions to be made, but if you like the bamf go for it. and post a vid as long as you like it who cares. but imo why spend $$$$$$ on subs and drop $ on amps?
