bbeljefe Posted October 8, 2013 Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 I would argue that running them individual chambers serves no purpose other than bracing the cabinets and taking up volume. We used to think subs needed separate chambers but that was back before mono block amps and electronic crossovers.

mrd6 Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 If you are running them all off the same amp and one of them blows, having each sub in its own chamber helps protect the rest from mechanical failure. Also, you would be able to rewire and disconnect the blown one and continue to play with no issues.

CleanSierra Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 I'm thinking in your truck that option one sounds best to the ear and option 2 is loudest on the meter. I'm not positive, we need the opinion of a Ranger guy. The member 727Designs on here knows a thing or two about that truck, as well as Ray(Ray isn't around much anymore these days because he doesn't have any free time due to a new baby and work). You might PM 727Designs on here and pick his brain. Option 1 has my vote though Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.

CleanSierra Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Can you not get all 4 woofers in box #1? Since they aren't a huge Xmax sub, you could load then isobaric too? Just a thought, that way you wouldn't need ALL the airspace for 4, just one. You could have each compound loaded sub push/pull in its own sealed chamber, like you want, and that chamber would be half the required volume for ONE driver. So your sealed chambers would equal up to what ONE driver wanted for its sealed specs and then you could fire them into a common ported chamber with like a 2:1 or 2.5:1 ratio. You could even do inter-changeable ports Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toolshed Posted October 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 i think i can get a better ratio with one.... I'm probably going to do 2 cubes per sub... 2.5 is in the flat wall, and they move way too much with little control... I'm thinking that 2 will be enough behind them. not to metion they are also bottoming out some too.... just a reminder, I'm wanting to do what ever is the loudest. I already have a jetta set up for sound quality,so i want this truck to pound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleanSierra Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 You get really good cone control by compound loading subs, just sayin.... Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
