W140 Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 The GCON works great in sealed and ported applications. How much space do you have available? They do like larger enclosures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe X Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 So how are you wiring 3 subs to two amps? Also the box needs to be 7 -7.5 cubes net for sealed, yes it's a big vehicle but so are 7 cubes, better take some measurements of the trunk.

twisted1 Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 They dont sound good imo. Also they like smaller boxes 09 mustang gt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremiejohnson23 Posted November 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 I wan to get 3 dual 2s and wire them to point 1 ohm or whatever it is. I think i can fit 8 cubes comfortably in my trunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirill007 Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 They dont sound good imo. Also they like smaller boxes You must be one out of a thousand people who actually says that they don't sound good. I wan to get 3 dual 2s and wire them to point 1 ohm or whatever it is. I think i can fit 8 cubes comfortably in my trunk. So 2 subs on 1 amp and the other one on 1 amp? :s Either use 1 amp or get 4 12's instead of 15's. Thinking is the root of all problems...

jeremiejohnson23 Posted November 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 i actually found the old t2000bd for a really good price and was planning to use that one. i know i can use more power but this is a deal i cant pass up. i dont really want to go four 12s because i own four re sex 12s at the moment and dont want buy more 12s unless its a upgrade. i dont have the room to properly port four 12s. im trying to get the loudest i can with a traditional style enclousure. i also like the sound of sealed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
