hod913 Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 I have a new body silverado and im doing a cut through next week. Problem is that I can decide to do 2 or 4 12's. I beleive the woofers i want to use need about 1.75 to 2.25 vent each so i would be on the border of specs. I do NOT want to use the whole bed and I have take the measurements and should have around 8 cube before woofers and vent. Do you guys think that would be enough air sapce for 4 or should I shrink it a bit and make it a box for 2?
White Lightning Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 Make round cuts to your cab and bed ... Not 90 degree cuts The Accordion boot will fit and work much better with rounded cuts in your corners .... Also, it would be nice if you can have a full bed cover to protect your investment ....

hod913 Posted March 5, 2013 Author Report Posted March 5, 2013 yeah i got all that figured out. Just wondering on the box and design what would sound and hit the hardest.

Also, it would be nice if you can have a full bed cover to protect your investment .... x2 about the round cuts vs the square cut for the accordion boot for sure.. and tuned in for this too would like to see what other's say about it and such.. ALL CREDIT TO XX1 FOR DC BANNER down rpping vanderbilt. 30 miles from victoria. i own the 3rd loudest setup here out of 3. but i did put together all 3 setups strapping 2 amps together ? like bolting them next together? using bungy cables to hold them down? or wiring separate amps to each sub
revoracing247 Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 just my $0.02 but i think twice the cone area would be louder. ~ If it was easy, everybody would be doing it ~
White Lightning Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 I know ... My blow thru has 4 10s Isoberic, but my goals were different. If I was looking for goals like yours, I would go with no less than 4 12s ...

hod913 Posted March 5, 2013 Author Report Posted March 5, 2013 i just dont want to be short on air space and miss that deep drop trying to tune around 33-34 hrtz and get into the upper 20's with the hertz swing. i listen to all types of music but love that deep drop that shakes everything. lol
sprkn_ranger Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 Yea if your going as far as cutting a hole in your truck cab for bass then I wouldn't do anything less than 4 12's. DO IT right the first time so you don't waste time/money doing it a second time. Edit- "DO IT" not donut lolol Check out my build log! 4 Havocs in a blowthrough http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/187506-sprkn-rangers-blowthrough-build/
