Joe X Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 no my box was decent for a prefab. atrend kandy kolor b box 2.25 gross per sub @ 38hz it was Just time to go because of the third sub. got a deal on the atrend for $160 had for ten.months sold for $100I'm Happy with that. i was reading that for a 12inch sub to have a flat response at 20hz the box had to be 5cubic feet(i do have the room for that but jeeze!) so i was thinking around 3 would give Me low/mid 30hz area. but if you guys really dont think its possible sealed I'll go vented. i was also thinking about Just going at 3cubic feet each sub see how it sounds if i dont like it port it to the hz i want. does that sound like a good idea or Just build a nice slot vent? fist box build so nothing to crazy! even tho i want a 4th order but have no idea where to begin For two subs 4 cubic feet net tuned to 32Hz, around 55 square inches of port area will get you all the lows you can't ever have with sealed and increased efficiency, theoretically the same output as 4 subs in sealed but with deeper low end. I guess 800W per sub will be nice power to give. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CleanSierra Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 After all that, you're still going to do a sealed box? With multiple suggestions to do ported in a correct box? 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...
Aj11 Posted December 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 no, i just left out the 55 square inches of port area.

Joe X Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 no, i just left out the 55 square inches of port area. I'm not going sealed For 3 subs it would need to be 6 cubic feet @32Hz about 84 square inches of port area. With odd number of subs you need to pick your amp carefully because you can't wire down to 1 ohm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aj11 Posted December 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 there will be 3 amps. 3 jl 500/1 v2s each sub has its own amp. i know i know i should find a amp that can power all 3 but i bought the first 2 amps new for $600+ and the third is only $150 with a free epicenter. i just really don't want to se6ll them I've had them for 4&3years and they've been nothing but great to me. like a faithful dog,sure it smells and hogs the sheets but its always been there and at your lowest moments it just somehow picks you up and puts a smile on you're face. plus i love all the control i have over them,and i just can't justify selling them for $150-200 a pop. I'm not gonna find a amp that can do what they do for 3-400 bucks I'm just not. i need to.mention again since each sub will have its own amp each sub will have its own chamber! so your saying 6 cubic feet in total(each sub 2cf) because what the other guy said 4 cubic feet 55inches of port i would have made each chamber 4cubic feet! jvc deck stinger 1800 front hc 2000 kinetic rear 2 runs of 1/0g big 3/4 ct 60.4 2 ct 1400.1 ct EXO 15 d1 lots of deadner type r comps front stage 6 kicker tweets rear stage lots of great stuff coming soon ho alt more bats ct comps for front stage more deadner sweet amp rack lots of L.E.D lights new deck (thinking 80 prs, or flip out) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe X Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 I said earlier 4 cubes but for two subs. You can gain match the amplifiers and avoid separate chambers if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right. You can find an amp that will walk all over all three of them and have change left in your pocket. And please, don't take this as anything other than good natured ribbing but, you said you didn't want to be like everyone else. You're running JL slash amps with Alpine type R subs bro. Having three of each won't make you not still be running the same mainstream that 90% of people run. That's like claiming you're eating a different breakfast than me my calling yours "eggs and bacon" and then calling mine "bacon and eggs"... it's the same thing bro. ;-) Facebook: facebook.com/audioanarchyllc Instagram: audioanarchyllc Youtube: youtube.com/bbeljefe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
