AB XFL 15 4th Order


Recommended Posts

Posted

So I'm planning on going with a single AB XFL 15" and would really like it in a 4th order port facing back. This is going into an 01 Ford Explorer Sport so my sizing limitations aren't very limited, 41" width, 35" depth, however high I need it. I just want to know what the XFL likes sealed and ported. It's a daily but I'd still like to get all I can get from it. Also, I'm looking for an amp that'll keep up with it and stay in my very limited budget around $200. A Hifonics Brutus?

What is your motivation for using a 4th order bandpass box?

A fourth order makes you so cool that you have to change your name to kelvin.

I just like a challange and being somewhat new to this I feel it would be great for me to do. Ive also heard that the XFLs do great in them and that i can really get the most out of them in a 4th order.

Hey if you are looking for a challenge and to do something different, then have at it! Here are a couple things to consider. A bandpass box is going to sound different than a ported box does, if you are expecting it to get much louder and have a huge bandwidth, you are probably going to be disappointed. Bandpass boxes let you trade efficiency for bandwidth and vice-versa. If you want to get really loud, you are only going to have a limited bandwidth, and if you want a wide bandwidth its going to cost you output. Everything is a tradeoff. Just what direction you want to go is depends on what's most important to you.
