make sure you dont get to know smoke, let it cool down and dont take it up for long periods of time..

or just order a recone now.

Ray I had a Q. or few about those 6-AA8's in the integra:

Did you use the AA specs on a ported box design and multiply by 6 or use other airspace/port specs?

If you used your own...care to share? I was considering using my whole trunk (97integra) and throwing a bunch of AA 8's in there either sealed or ported-unsure yet and give em about 100-150rms each.

And finally-I was actually debating 12-8's sealed versus 6-9 ported. you think the fewer ported subs an out-do the sealed setup (in an integra facing rear in both cases).

I hope thats not too much of an annoying "how many dbeeeez" type Q. My rebuild/s still a while away and i just thought i'd hit u up for ideas while the site is still goin strong.

BTW ur builds are great. I love what you did on that chevy truck/cut thru. Incred. work i hope someday to reach that level.

Gonna need more power than 150rms..

at least 300 per driver, i would recommend 6 aa 8's ported.

enclosure would be 4.5 cuft after displacment tuned to 37hz

and 1800rms that will get you close to a 150 daily

Hmmmm...interesting. I am kinda sold on the "ridiculuos number of woofers" if for nothing else the shock factor (yea yea) so maybe I'll go with 8-8's just to even up the amp load (cuz i'm anal maybe? or a nerd, i dunno) or scrap that and do 3 rows of 3 subs. Once I get busy on the design of the system I'm prolly gonna be in ur ear and all the port guys a lot w/ port Q's since i've ony done a few ported setups and when i did it was based on manufact. specs.

Thanx a tonn for the input RAY- and either I will be lazy bastard and take ur advice (maybe even shoot ya some $$ for the design for that garaunteed bang out the box..yes puns a planty here) or do what I usually do and spend way too long on it till it's perfect in my mind w/out any/much help.

In either case i have 2 PG Tantrum 1200.1's and 2 PG T600.4's for the rebuild.

Currently ONE of each is pushing my setup now and w/ the exception of the TL mic ##'s its a perfect daily setup...Just tryin to catch you guys w/ ur 150+ and walls of 18's gets me drooling over a nice hairtrick and a big ##.

thanx again,

End rant 4 now.
