DylanBunch Posted September 7, 2013 Report Posted September 7, 2013 will it hurt to have to a smaller than spec sealed side in 4th order? 2006 Ford Explorer 2 Team AA/Sundown 15s 6th order Ct Sounds 7k 4 PRV Mr500 8s Rockford p1000-2 Team Subsonic Lows
zydrix Posted September 7, 2013 Report Posted September 7, 2013 I believe a bigger then spec size would be better. The bigger the sealed, I believe the lower u can play in a 4th. My build 98 s10 2.2 3 american bass HD 15s with psi soft parts. (on there way here) atomic at-3000.1 (soon) 146.2 outlaw @39hz., bad alt an bad batt when termed (old 2 12" build) alpine 6.5s in doors infinty 4x6s in dash. clarion cz201 HU. mechman 240a H/O alt stuff i still need. SHCA 2/0 wire SHCA 1/0 to 2/0 adapters Atomic AT-3000.1 Lots of sound deadner new mids an highs, still debating on what to do. A few Deka g31 batts.
DylanBunch Posted September 8, 2013 Author Report Posted September 8, 2013 well this is what im deciding between, 2 sp4 18s with a small sealed side, 2 zv3 18s with the suggested sealed side but not as 4th order friendly, or 2 sp4 15s with suggested sealed..... quite a pickle here 2006 Ford Explorer 2 Team AA/Sundown 15s 6th order Ct Sounds 7k 4 PRV Mr500 8s Rockford p1000-2 Team Subsonic Lows
zydrix Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 I thought u had x18s? If I may ask. Why a 4th? My build 98 s10 2.2 3 american bass HD 15s with psi soft parts.

CleanSierra Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 Go with 15s, voila. problem solved, you're welcome Seriously though, you should have proper space for the 15s if you almost have room for the 18s Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.
DylanBunch Posted September 8, 2013 Author Report Posted September 8, 2013 I thought u had x18s? If I may ask. Why a 4th? I have 1 x 18 but i feel like im gonna wanna get louder after a few months so i figured id sell it when it comes time to do a 4th order and get subs that can handle more power. And i wanna do a 4th cause its something ive never done before and i want dat bandwidth doee... not that im saying ported walls cant have great bandwidths too so nobody freak out 2006 Ford Explorer 2 Team AA/Sundown 15s 6th order Ct Sounds 7k 4 PRV Mr500 8s Rockford p1000-2 Team Subsonic Lows
CJ18 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 Proper airspace with a smaller sub should yield better results than a larger sub being choked.

DylanBunch Posted September 8, 2013 Author Report Posted September 8, 2013 would i be losing a whole lot with 15s over 18s 2006 Ford Explorer 2 Team AA/Sundown 15s 6th order Ct Sounds 7k 4 PRV Mr500 8s Rockford p1000-2 Team Subsonic Lows
zydrix Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 If u plan on running A LOT of power to the 18s to make them happy in a small enclosure thats ok. But if not 15s will be better. You will give the 15s room to breathe. Smaller woofers with more airspace will win over bigger woofers being choked on little air space almost every time My build 98 s10 2.2 3 american bass HD 15s with psi soft parts.
