poorfish88 Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 Finally got my sub in a box it's happy with, roughly 1.75 cubes with a 4 flared port powered by an RF T1500bdcp. First box I made was around 1.75cubes, but I went with some crazy 3 3inch ports with half of it external. I screwed up the tuning cause it slammed the ultra lows, But not so great on music whoops. Should have double checked my numbers before building my box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyblack76 Posted December 22, 2013 Report Share Posted December 22, 2013 yup... it happens. Hell, even those that nail their design, still end up changing it.

poorfish88 Posted December 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 I don't know how to MultQuote or I would. I plan on changing to a RFt2500 and building a slightly smaller box later, and let stretch her legs. See, if I can't change that hitting pretty hard to HAM. I need a couple more batteries and one more run of 0/1 gauge. Kyle, I wish I would have bounced my numbers off the SMD comm first. Someone could have saved me from myself.

Kyblack76 Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 Yeah, this forum is full of knowledge for sure. Like N8 said, the XL is my favorite DC driver they have.

SojiaRaggs9000 Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 I've got my XL 10" in a 1.44³ ft box which after displacement is about 1.13³ ft. I have it running off of a DC 3.5k @ 1ohm. Granted mines upgraded with AR cone and high roll surround. They're rated for 2200 rms, so you should be fine just make sure its clean power.

Robert8252 Posted December 23, 2013 Report Share Posted December 23, 2013 I ran a 12" XL in about 2.5 cubes with a 6" aero tuned to 35 off of a DC 3.5k. Ended up building a 2.2 cube box with a slot port. I think 44 inches of port tuned to 36 or so. Slammed. I'm sure it sounds good but I found out the hard way I was choking the sub when the soft parts gave out.
