CJL Posted November 18, 2006 Author Report Posted November 18, 2006 power depends on the box Well since MTX suggests 1.75^ft ported(IIRC) how would they sound in a 2-2.2^ft ported? Quote
AI James Posted November 18, 2006 Report Posted November 18, 2006 nice and loud depending on the box still lol Quote
CJL Posted November 18, 2006 Author Report Posted November 18, 2006 nice and loud depending on the box still lol lol, what you mean,like how well the box is built or port area and tuning...or both Quote
CJL Posted November 18, 2006 Author Report Posted November 18, 2006 Well if i had one in a 2cube box,how muck port area and what tuning should i go with? Looking for a strong output between 30 and 50hz ;D Quote
CUT BUDDY Posted November 19, 2006 Report Posted November 19, 2006 power depends on the box Well since MTX suggests 1.75^ft ported(IIRC) how would they sound in a 2-2.2^ft ported? Ur best bet is to call MTX and ask them. I was going to run 9500s until I started looking at the BTLs. I called them and they said the more space the better. For a 12 they told me around 2.75-3ft3 was what I should stay around and for a 15 they said to do something like 3.5-4ft3. It says 1k rms but Ive seen 1 taking about 1300rms with my own 2 eyes and it was wanging. Ive heard tells of em taking 1400rms but I dont know,I can just say from what Ive seen 1200-1300rms is ideal for em if its tuned and the gains are set right. Quote TEAM MechMan Alternators
Ernesto Posted November 19, 2006 Report Posted November 19, 2006 Do you guy thing they could beat a L7 in output for a daily driver? Also how many watt do they need to perform the best? I wouldn't doubt that it will sound better but I would put money on the L7s being able to take a bigger beating than the MTX. Quote
stratusrt01 Posted November 19, 2006 Report Posted November 19, 2006 I definately would disagree with the L7's taking more of a beating. The 9500 is "almost" indestructable, I've had a ton of L7's come back when running over rms on them. I've run almost double rms on mine for almost a year. BTW: 2.4 cubes, tuned to 35hz with about 40 inches of port is the hookup for a ported box for a 9512. Quote

I have yet to hear of some one blowing any of the new models...I also know of some people throwing 1500rms to them (15"s). Quote
