SnowDrifter Posted July 8, 2013 Report Posted July 8, 2013 6 cubes for 2 12's? why?! thats gigantic! literally needs to be half that size. and thats not a maybe. the woofers wont see 2k. probably like 1500rms, if that even. voltage drop + box rise = never getting rated power out of the amp. Sundown calls for 2.5 spec for a SA 12 so the box designer at my work is taking a gamble to see how it sounds and if it sounds like shit we're going to build a 5 cube box As someone who has ran an sa-12 in a 2.6cuft box, I can tell you that it is too big. 2.25 is about perfect to handle what you are throwing at it IMO. ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444

Jessica Posted July 8, 2013 Report Posted July 8, 2013 Did anyone else miss the fact he has two D2 subs? He isn't going to overpower these subs, he is going to underpower them. Unless he want to wire at .5...... Rest in peace, walled 87 accord build log 03' Corolla build with AA Mayhem inside. My super random youtube channel and terrible camera work.

Unless he want to wire at .5...... I don't plan on wiring it down to .5 ohm since my electrical at this point can't handle it just 1 ohm daily and MAYBE .5 when I'm metering it 2006 Ford F150 4.6 3v (2) Digital Deisgns 3515's D4 Digital Designs M3B w/ Toolmaker Dual Inputs Mike Singer Built 340 Amp Alternator Arc Audio KS 300.4 *mids and highs to come soon* Alpine 148BT And tons of 0 AWG
