2 Dc Lv3 15's

[Guest aseanj52]

I am ordering soon, 2 DC LV3 15's. I drive a 97 Dodge Ram extended cab.I was wondering what size box i should use, I was thinking 8 cubes. I'm not even sure which way i want to face them. I was thinking towards the floor, with the port facing the seats from left to right across the whole thing.

Any input will be great.

Downfiring would sound really good. Over at fiberglass forums a guy had a really good reply in a thread that had to do with how to face your subs to get a good sound, he recommended downfiring as a great way to get good sound. The floor wont give in to the sound pressure created by the cones and will allow the full sound to resonate out into the listening environment much better. Adjust your design to have the subs off of the floor and take into consideration whenever it flexes not to let the surround get too close and touch the floor. Allow a good gap or channel for the pressure from the front of the subs to get out as well.

8 cubes sound good, for those subs on the specs it says 3 cubes per sub, and 4 cubes per sub SPL, but I assume you're going for the SPL ported volume? Nice man, should be a good system.

Yeah, my friend did his DC 18's at SPL and they could still play music really well. So i figured i would do the same. And that's what i was thinking, that the floor would support the sound better, and even better with some Hushmat or Dynamat on it.
