Kenny Clark Posted March 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 I have everything. Well besides dynamat. MDF, subs, should get a bigger amp but that will come down the road, extra batt (not xs) sorry, no more cap. Had one...worked good I guess...read enough to show me they are junk. Anything else I should have? Done the big 3. 95 Civic 4 door- 2005 Chevy SilveradoSkar 15' IVX (2)Skar SK 800.1DSkar SK 85.4 A/B - Yet to be installed 2-Deep cycle Marine Batteries Big 3 A whole shit load of 1/0 welding cable.

Krakin Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 What people mean when they say don't mix different subs is that you should put two different subs in the same box. Because it can screw up the woofers. Build the box right for whatever sub you are going to use. But if you have two of the same sub it will be perfectly acceptable to build a box double the size of one to accommodate the two. And once again please don't cut corners in your build. Every little detail will be extremely useful either for safety reason in wiring or for cleaner louder output in you box. Edit: Yes please don't use Peel and Seal. And thank you for reading as much as you could on here before making a topic so you know what everyone is talking about.

scoobywrx05 Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Back to p&s...really don't use it huh?? I already have it. Leftover from a roof job....am I gonna have to bite the bullet on this one?? I'm not gonna win here am I?!?!? Lol If you want to put it on go ahead. It's your car. It's not gonna help anything tho. You would have to put it on 3 layers thick to even notice a difference. All your really doing is adding extra weight to your car. So ya it's pretty pointless to even put it on.just wait till you get some good sound dampening material Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobywrx05 Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 I listen to all kinds but I want to be able to put on some psyph and show it off too. I know I'm not going to be the loudest by any means but I want to be as good as I can with what I have. I can build my own box and wire everything. Kinda looking for a box idea... Also I hear a lot about "not mixing subs". So should I not try to build a box for 4 and use my other p1s? I know I prob sound stupid but I only ask cause I don't know and want to learn.... The only stupid question is the one you don't ask. No you can't put the p1s and p3s in the same box as was stated. Do you already have all your power wire and rcas and everything else, besides what you listed you don't have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny Clark Posted March 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Yes, I have all my wires run, head unit. I had the p1s in a sealed box already... Just want to go bigger. What do u think about one box for the 4 subs but separate them 2x2. Know what I mean?? Separate ports and such.... 95 Civic 4 door- 2005 Chevy SilveradoSkar 15' IVX (2)Skar SK 800.1DSkar SK 85.4 A/B - Yet to be installed 2-Deep cycle Marine Batteries Big 3 A whole shit load of 1/0 welding cable.

scoobywrx05 Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Are you stuck on getting p3s? Me personally, I would sell the p1s and put that money and the money you have for the p3s towards 2 better 12s or 15s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krakin Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 It's not recommended but I'm sure that it won't hurt anything in seperate boxes. My only concern would be airspace. Would you have enough room for 4 subs in the back of your car? For each twelve the average airspace is 1.75-2.5 cubic feet. So of course double that for two. That's quite a bit of space being taken up for just two. Also in a good box those subs will sound pretty decent.

Guest Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 roofing material belongs on roofs. its been shown that when comparing second skin products to peel and seal, in order to get the same amount of dampening, you would need about 5 layers of PnS for every 1 layer of SS. at that point you're already spending just as much for the "more expensive" product.

Kenny Clark Posted March 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 I suppose im not real attached to them.....My other issue is, with the "Big 3" and an extra batt, how big should I go with an amp? Or how big can I go I should say? I just dont want to get into 4 alts and 12 batts! Lol. Im not looking to be that big. AND heres my NEXT issue.....HOW FUCKING LONG CAN I LOOK AT SONIX AND AUDIO SAV BEFORE I CAN PICK A SUB?!?!?! Seriously....my wife looks at me like im crazy cause I look at the same shit over and over....IDK what to get...whats good whats junk!?!!? Read reviews....Some say GREAT...Some say FUCKING JUNK! MB Quart?? Nice? Bad? Can someone list some decent 12s that dont cost 900 bucks?!?! 95 Civic 4 door- 2005 Chevy SilveradoSkar 15' IVX (2)Skar SK 800.1DSkar SK 85.4 A/B - Yet to be installed 2-Deep cycle Marine Batteries Big 3 A whole shit load of 1/0 welding cable.
