shogen Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Can one of you find the link to the thread? I'm looking for Jacob's post but I cannot seem to find it use this as a Guide for these subs.. 10s : 1.25 - 2 cubes ported12s : 2 - 3 cubes ported15s : 3 - 4.5 cubes ported18s : 4 - 6 cubes portedAt higher power err towards smaller; around rated power err towards bigger. this is so wrong lol look at Fi Q an 18 needs 6 - 8 cubs ported and not the 4 -6 you stated.. every sub is different and you should go with manufacturer recommendation And another subwoofer guru!!!! use this as a Guide for these subs.. 10s : 1.25 - 2 cubes ported12s : 2 - 3 cubes ported15s : 3 - 4.5 cubes ported18s : 4 - 6 cubes portedAt higher power err towards smaller; around rated power err towards bigger. No... Use manufacture's specifications as a guide. Those recommendations are straight from Jacob's mouth which if you do not know that is the owner of Sundown...so yes that is the manufacures specifications...now please shut up.... N9neMillahhh - 4 cubes will be perfect for the two 10's on a 3500Dv2 at 1 ohm; don't listen to Krakin because he obviously has no idea what he is talking about.... thank you.. someone here as been reading the forums..

Okay I'll fix my post for accuracy... Orignal: I would recommend doing the math on what the amp will be drawing at it's Ohm load. Then seeing how much much current is possible to transfer through CCA or OFC, cause I don't remember them right now, to see what runs you need to do. And MOST importantly get a reliable volt meter. I suggest buying a SMD VM-1 especially with the discounts going on for it right now. SMD coupon i think is $10 off, and sending in you old - broken or working - volt meter gets you $25 off each one sent in. Fixed since I'm an idiot: Fuck math throw something with metal the electricity is smart it'll get there. Just through some of Kicker's Silver clad OFC IT'S GOT SILVER!!! Fuck meters just use your dash gauge that shits accurate as hell!

I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . . What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself but what has drawn your attention in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears, thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.

shogen Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Obviously I wasn't on top of the right thread.... but I'd honestly not recommend all this for OP .... inexperience can cause a lot of mayhem in itself.... I'd say go for mid - lower side to be on the side of safety with all that equipment.... That's just my opinion those specs are not posted anywhere edit:on sundown website or SSA where they sell them. http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164370-sundown-x-series-10121518-pre-order-eta-june-2013/ Scroll down a little bit and there ya - post #16 by sundownz....

Miguels Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 (edited) okay. i read it and the specs are of him going on to test them. we need to find where the final specs will be We'll be doing some real-world testing to dial it in further, of course, but this is what I'd shoot for : 10s : 1.25 - 2 cubes ported 12s : 2 - 3 cubes ported 15s : 3 - 4.5 cubes ported 18s : 4 - 6 cubes ported Edited May 30, 2013 by Miguels Quote my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shogen Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 lmfao.... well as I read it ... seems he is referring to the z.4 in the specs.... but that's the interpretation since he is answering questions about 2 different woofers in that post http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164370-sundown-x-series-10121518-pre-order-eta-june-2013/ Scroll down a little bit and there ya - post #16 by sundownz....
