Bills Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 just recently i put in about 70 sq ft of fatmat into my blazer. i took it in to get tested today and i knocked out a 143.2 @ aboiut 45 hz. i gaind about 2 dB off the instal, i don't klnow if i should be happy or not.haha. i have 3 12" insignia Fubars(crap i know) powerd off a JL Audio A1800 class D amp putting around 300 watts to each sub at 2.67 ohms. so my questions is. do i ditch a sub and build a new box that is 5 sq ft box with 2 4" aero ports tunned to about 33 Hz. i'll be putting about 500Watts to each sub a 5 ohms. is there maybe a chance i could be hitting around 140 on a term lab by any chance?
