Sid420 Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 hello I am going to be buying 2 american bass hd's and i was looking to run them on 2000 watts a piece and i was wondering if anybody could give me ideas on the box i want it to be on a 4th order but dont know how to build one. so you help me to figure out what i should have it tuned too. i would like it to be a low end machine. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98GCLimited Posted May 13, 2013 Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 Are you stuck on the AB HDs? They arent the best choice for a 4th order is why I ask. Id recommend looking for something with a higher Qts and lower Fs if you want to build a 4th and want the lows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sid420 Posted May 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 well i already have one of them so i was just going to buy another one and build a wall but i figured a normal wall would be to big for just 2 15's so thats why the idea for the 4th but i was also considering 4 of the AB's with a normal wall.

CleanSierra Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Wait, you thought a 4th would be a better idea because it would take less space? A 4th will take more space that a typical 4th order. You'll have a sealed side built to specs of what the sub wants and ported based on a ratio of your choosing. If your subs are not designed for a sealed box, they aren't ideal for a 4th, as mentioned already. The higher QTS and lower Fs is definitely going to be more suited for a bandpass enclosure. It doesn't mean it can't be done, but it's a gamble that no one will be able to tell you will work or not. As far as 2 15s for a wall, you don't have to utilize ALL the space for the wall. Just use what you need for the 2 subs and maybe make a trim panel for the void space? Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.

mrd6 Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Those subs will not be a low end machine in a 4th. Do 4 of those 15s in a regular wall on some power and you'll be muuuuuuch happier than a 4th with 2 of them My Build Log: http://www.stevemead...-sundown-power/ Team NorthWestSPL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
