BassCruze Posted November 23, 2013 Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 Right now I have a single Sa12 in a 2 cube box ported at 32hz with 31.25in^2 of port area. Running on 1250w at 1 ohm from a power acoustik BAMF amp. The plan is to either upgrade to a single x15 in a 4 cube box tuned to 32hz or add another sa12 in a 5 cube box tuned to 34hz. Either case my amp will get changed out to a audiopipe 1800.1. The system is in a 2014 chevy cruze with stock electrical. Which setup would be louder?

WhatsAminiTruck Posted November 23, 2013 Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 (edited) If the box is built correctly, I believe the X could get louder... however two SA-12s would sound soooo much better doing it. But, if you're over powering the SA-12s... then they would be louder than just the RMS on an X. Also, 1800watts on stock electrical? >___> Edited November 23, 2013 by WhatsAminiTruck Quote Current: Two SA-6.5s and two tweets in each door powered by an LA-4200, 240amp Mechman Alt, Two Memphis PR12s powered by an SAZ-1500.Waiting on my box to hook up my two SA-12s <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I listen to a lot of rap and decaf stuff so I was thinking the 2 12's would be a better option. I also thought they would have more surface area so they would be louder. But I don't know if that's exactly true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleanSierra Posted November 23, 2013 Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 Give the X proper port area and net volume, you'll be happy with it. How much port area would you plan on running to the X?

CleanSierra Posted November 23, 2013 Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 Thr X has the opportunity to dig lower and with more authority. Louder though....2 12s is definitely more cone area so you COULD get more output with the 2 SA12s. Quote Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.

BassCruze Posted November 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 Give the X proper port area and net volume, you'll be happy with it. How much port area would you plan on running to the X? Probably 72.5. Be around 14.5"x5" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truthsayer Posted November 23, 2013 Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 Either set up will be good, probably about equal output. But your not going to get the power you think you are from the audiopoop amp. 1 Quote truthsayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
