MRriley96SS Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Can someone give me some advice on a box design for (2) Fully Loaded BTL 18s. I recently sold my MT 18 that was doing 146.7 pushed by a Colossus II on all stock electrical ( I have pics floating around somewhere). I felt this set-up could've be louder with the proper electrical upgrade but since I'm Ballin' on a Budget it will be a while before I can do the upgrade. Not sure on how I want to reun the subs, I just know I want them to be loud :hairtrick: So should I... A: 18s/Subs up/Port up B: 18s/Sub up/Port back C: Build a Wall D: Shoot for a 150 with the 1 18 BTL (just upgrade electrical) Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

EricM9104 Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Are you looking for a 150 on music or a tone?

PaulO2288 Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 I would do a wall or subs up port back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRriley96SS Posted July 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 I would do a wall or subs up port back. Thanks Guys. 150 + burp is cool with me. A 150 on music would be insane Quote 1996 DCM Impala SS (2) JL 13W7s (2) 1000/1s (1) 450/4 1971 Caprice 406 SBC SAZ-4500D (2) Fi BTL 18s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derrick824 Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 12ft net w/ four 6" ports tuned in the 32-35hz range subs up & port back. Feed them 5kwatts+ and you'll easily see 150s on music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
