05flareside Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 I currently have a crescendo symphony 1500.1 and plan on running it at 1 ohm, I want to upgrade to a single 15 (either Soundqubed, DC or maybe another brand) My current design is a wedge shape box and it would be the biggest I can fit 26.5 inches tall 33 inches wide/long 8.5 inches top length 14 inches bottom length About 4.44 cubes minus roughly .2 cubes for Sub displacement and I'm at 4.24. I'm considering doing a HDS3 15 so I looked at the recommended specs and they say about 56 Square inches of port and 20 inches long for a 3.5 net box. After subtracting port volume and sub displacement I'd be at 3.6 cubes so my tuning would be like 1 hz lower than recommended. What are the thoughts on doing this? I listen to rap/ hip hop mostly, but am looking for a loud daily setup. Vehicle is a single cab f150, plan on doing sub forward firing and port up or out the side, undecided on port.

ToNasty Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 Which sub is it. Soundqubed likes bigger and more port area than a dc if I remember right ***Super Sellers List***http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/25829-super-sellers-buyers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
05flareside Posted October 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 I'm considering the HDS3 15 currently, as it is more in my budget. DC is somewhat pricey. Actually, I think I may end up going with the HDC3 15 vs the HDS, I'm still torn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triticum Agricolam Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 The HDC series has stiffer suspension and is going to have a more peaky output as a result compared to the HDS series. Just something to think about.

Doing some numbers tuning would be about 42Hz using 2 6" ports, I wouldn't tune that high for rap even if normally single cabs will lift up your low end quite a bit, 36-37Hz should be ok.
