Tru_spl_lows Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 I just received my 2 sundown 8 v.3's which I want to build a ported box to play loud with aggressive lows.I want to get the most out of the 8's any tips on spec numbers would be greatly appreciated.I have a few 12 to1500wrms amps I can use (taramps,banda,audiopipe,and stetsom for the subs.

Tru_spl_lows Posted July 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 My trunk measures 44x16x12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reedal Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 Are you willing to build inside of the trunk in order to meet those measurements, or does your trunk opening match those dimensions? Cause you’ll have to be able to get the box in there.

Tru_spl_lows Posted July 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 If that what needs to be done I'm all for it.I really want those 8''s to hit loud and low or as best as they can play I should say being that there are only (2) 8''s and I don't have that much cone area,but as they say it's how you build the box.In your opinion what wattage should I use for the 8's?

Joe X Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 Your chances to be louder may improve if you have a tiny vehicle and you don't tune so low and pick a very peaky alignment giving plenty of port area and push as much power as the alignment will allow.
