Brandonbkd Posted September 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 FI BL 18 on a SQ 2200 at 0.7 ohms. Box is in the back of my explorer with the sub up on the passenger side and port back on the driver side. Probably about 10 in from the back hatch. This is the exact box its in right now FI BL18 Build Log: CLICK HERE!! 2003 Explorer Sport: FI BL18 SoundQubed 2200 at 0.7ohm Pioneer DEH-2500UI Pioneer 6 x 8s Rockford Fosgate 6 x 9s 5 ft^3 box at 35hz Lots of Mega Mat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandonbkd Posted September 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 i think you fucked up building the port Can you elaborate? As in the port design or the actual cutting the wood and putting it together part?

This is why I posting it on here because I've already ran everything through my head of what it could be and double and triple checked literally EVERYTHING...

Brandonbkd Posted September 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 I'm almost tempted to just build a box with a tune of like 25 because everything seems to sound like its tuned 10hz higher than what its supposed to be lol FI BL18 Build Log: CLICK HERE!! 2003 Explorer Sport: FI BL18 SoundQubed 2200 at 0.7ohm Pioneer DEH-2500UI Pioneer 6 x 8s Rockford Fosgate 6 x 9s 5 ft^3 box at 35hz Lots of Mega Mat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotdog Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 from all the testing I have done Explorers love boxes that are tuned at 38hz. Mine is a 2003 also but it is full size not the sport model. It should still play low just fine (NEW) 2004 F-150 Build Log -->http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/192208-hotdogs-f-150-build-log/ 2003 Mercury Mountaineer Build Log --> http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/114380-hotdogs-2003-mountaineer-build-log-20-removed/page__gopid__1602379#entry1602379 2008 Equinox Build Log --> http://www.stevemead...g/#entry1475764 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DylanBunch Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 what do you mean my sounds like crap, just not as loud or it doesnt sound like a good bass noise.... i think i might have the same problem cause im tuned at 35 and 37-29 just sounds weird and the sub doesnt move at all... It doesnt start soundiing like bass again till 27-28 which is where the unloading begins so there isnt as much output It just doesn't sound like good bass. And its doing it exactly between like 35 - 29...seems like we might have an explorer issue here lol I have the exact same problem... i think its cause i have way too much port area though, im at like 100sq inches. I find it interesting we both have explorers and the same problem. Although i had a Rockford T2 and a Fi btl n2 ( both 15s) and those boxes didnt have the same issue, although they were tuned lower and the boxes were way too big for the subs lol idk dude, maybe i build another box tuned lower 2006 Ford Explorer 2 Team AA/Sundown 15s 6th order Ct Sounds 7k 4 PRV Mr500 8s Rockford p1000-2 Team Subsonic Lows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandonbkd Posted September 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Yea I had a box that was a little over 100 and the one I have now is 86 but it still didn't fix much so I'm kinda at a dead end...
