So your goal is to just cram in as much cone area as you can for the sake of cramming in a lot of cone area?

Kinda, but I know there is a limit. I helped a friend build a box for 2 15s that was too small but he insisted it had to fit a certain way in his trunk. It was never as loud as it should have been so I definitely want to avoid that.

After re-measuring everything last night I have at least 15 cubes gross, but only 41" wide at the base, 32" wide at the headliner and 33" tall, so 4 15s would barely fit on the front plate let alone leave any room for a port. 3 18s would be a similarly too tight fit for my liking. So now I think it is down to 2 18s. That leaves more room for batteries and an amp rack too.

I am liking the Zv3s. Now I have a little more space to work with my options have opened up a little. 2 18s that can handle 2k+ RMS for around $400 and do well in 5-6 cubes ported is the new idea. DC Level 4s?

My 2 Level 4 10s LAUGHED at 3500wrms to the pair.

One install was 2.1 cubes, 4" aero, tuned to 32-33 on an Ampere 3800Dv1 at 1ohm.

Second install was 2.1 Cubes, 2 3" aeros, tuned to 35ish on a Populus 3500 at 1 ohm

First box was much better for what i play.

Subs were "stock" too.

Ampere vids..

Populus Vid..

But yea.. Id run 2k to lvl 4s..

I have been talking to CJ18, thanks. I also found the Skar ZVX 18s that supposedly work in 4 cubes ported @ 32 hz. On sale now at SonicElectronix $380 shipped. Anyone have experience with Skar? Think these could handle 2000 or 2400 instead of the rated 1500 RMS?

thats not a bad price for the skar

alot of people say skar and sundown are so alike it should be illegal so go for it

sundown > skar

my 2c

worth price difference..

Scored some hardware last night after midnight with the BF discounts. 2 PSi Platform 2 18s with all the options and a Q3500.1 amp. I'm getting some lumber today and starting on the box, build thread soon to come.
