Impalalpine Posted December 19, 2013 Report Posted December 19, 2013 Im hoping to do three 12's in a trunk to replace two 15's that I blew. Interested in the HDC3's but the enclosure recommendations are not very inspiring, a 600w sub requires the same cubic foot box that a 4 inch coil 2,000 w sub does? So I have come to you guys, I can fit a 6ish cubic foot box. current box is 5.5 cubes for the 15's. I can give max dimensions. My question is, does anyone know how much port area and airspace HDC12's want? Can I fit three or just two? Could I fit three HDC10's?

Omega5002 Posted December 19, 2013 Report Posted December 19, 2013 You might be better off sticking with 2 12's, AQ's love their port and airspace 2003 Kia Sorento Team Subsonic LowsTeam Bassin' on a Budget2016 Rebuild Under Construction Best score: 150.2 at 40hz (3k, 2 Custom HDC3 15's) Usaci style(door open, in the kick)
Popwarhomie Posted December 19, 2013 Report Posted December 19, 2013 Do 2 12s. They like big boxes. Search google. There are a ton of people running 2 HDC3 12s. 2010 Focus coupe- 8 12" wall. 157.5@46hz 2016 Focus ST - SQ build.

Could I fit three HDC10's? lol, it is because generally box sizes deal with cone area, not power. A 100w 12 will have the same as a 3000w 12. They like big boxes, well, let me rephrase, they LOVE big boxes. My HDC3 15's were in 3.2 cubes a piece, hated it, put them in 5.5 per, and shined. Played across the board better. Go with 2 12s, in about 4-4.5 cubic feet, close to 14-16sq in of port per cube. And yes, they can take a 3500.

I ran my 2 on the 3500 no problem. I ran 2 hdc3 copper 15's in 5.5 cubes PER sub, on a 5k daily and they took it like a champ, got stinky after a bit, but suspension held up fine.

jarrius Posted December 20, 2013 Report Posted December 20, 2013 I would run only 2 if you look at soundqubed's websight they show how much space they recommend for 2 12's. I run a single hdc3 12 and it's in a 2.6 cubic foot box so with 2 you will need about 5cubes after all displacements.
