tony187soundproof Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 I want to upgrade my system. I have it narrowed down to a pair of 12" rockford r2sD4-12 shallow mount 250watt RMS subs or a single 15" sundown audio E-15D2 400 RMS Watts. With the Rockford's I will use my mb-quart 500.2 and if I go with the sundown I'll get a sundown sae-600 amp.

reedal Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 It's still a vs thread man. Any comparison of two or more different brands (brand A vs brand B, should I get this one or this one, which one has better performance, etc.) is a versus thread. Which in violation of forum rules. A mod will lock this thread up as well I'm sure.

Triticum Agricolam Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 Shallow mount subs almost always compromise performance to be shallow, I'd suggest you avoid them unless you absolutely have to use them.

Post your max dims for a box, that way one can figure if you can do anything else than shallow and base your sub selection on the actual space you have available.

tony187soundproof Posted March 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 I'm going with the 15" sundown, now for a box. I'm looking at a pre made 3\4 mdf 3.335 cubbed box that's vented and tuned to 30hz and a port volume of .34. If anybody had any ideas on what type of box would sound better let me know. It's going in a 2004 f-150 super cab.I would go as far as taking one of my back seats out.that would give me 3 1\2 ft long 2ft wide area and I could go up as much as 4ft 08 f-150 foose edition Roush supercharger 22'' foose chrome rims Carriage Works brushed billet grill Elite tonneau cover ZeeZ underbody led multi color glow kit Black horse racing electric exhaust cutout Crown suspension rear lowering shackles Eibach coil springs and leaf springs Pioneer DEH-x3800s cd player audiopipe 200 watt crossovers 4 mclaren 5x7 250 watts speakers 4 soundstream 150 watt dome tweeters Audiopipe Apcl-1000 mono amp 1-Sundown audio 15"sa Box built by concept enclosures tuned to 35 hz with spare 32hz aero ports 1-xs power 950 battery All skyhigh audio,power,ground,RCA,speaker, remote turn on home set-up Onkyo receiver tx-DS676 5.1 575 watts KLH 5 disc cd player Optonica 220 watt amp optimus 10-band EQ 2-floor standing technics speakers-10in w/mids 1-10in polk audio psw100 powered subwoofer 2-bowers & wilkins dm-17 bookshelf speakers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triticum Agricolam Posted March 9, 2016 Report Share Posted March 9, 2016 I'm sure the Sundown 15" will serve you well, I'd recommend against getting a prefab box though. You will almost certainly get better performance by building your own box, or having someone build one for you.
