RenegadeDan Posted November 26, 2017 Report Share Posted November 26, 2017 That title kind of sounds like a personal ad... Anyway, I have a Jeep Renegade. Been out of the game for a while, but was in it(and competitive) for over a decade with a single cab truck. Some may remember me, most probably won't. Regardless, I now have an SUV, and might get back into the circuit again when I've got time next summer. Just order a Fi Alpha V2 15, and it'll be ran on my Alpine MRX-M100 (I just love $50 craigslist deals). Using the ear-o-meter with a 12 in a 1 cube sealed box I'm peaking in the low/mid 40hz range. I'm thinking about box options for the 15, and have it narrowed down to sub up/port back, but I just can't seem to decide on the port. The box will be 4-4.5 cubes net, but should the port be a 60 sq in port along the bottom? What about a 10" octaport firing back off to the drivers lower side of the back? Or maybe dual 6" octaports firing back? Idk, that's why I'm here to get opinions from people that have experience with this vehicle, or small suv's in general. Thanks!

RenegadeDan Posted November 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2017 Alright, I think I have a plan and it's nothing I said in the last post. I got to thinking about this (too much), and decided I wanted something different that just a standard ol' ported box. I don't have the room for a bandpass (tired of building those anyway), but I just so happen to have enough room for a folded horn/t-line. So yeah, I think that's what I'm going to do. Just need to get accurate measurements of the cargo area and start calculating throat/mouth width, expansion rate, line length, yada yada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenegadeDan Posted December 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 The Fi should be here Tuesday! Once I build the box (when I actually decide on a final design) I'll put everything in the Build Log section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wishuponasub Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Nice. I've been wondering about those Alphas. Definitely start a build log bud.

RenegadeDan Posted December 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 The last Fi I had was an OG (2007 model) BL 12. Absolutely loved that thing. And last I knew it was still playing strong, with original soft parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
