Frozenbritches Posted August 3, 2008 Report Posted August 3, 2008 (edited) I am currently running 2 15" Kicker L7's...they are the 2007 versions...obviously squares...unported in a very large enclosure. I've had it a year now for sure and hoping to get 300 for the box and speakers and all to help with my new endeavor... I was wanting general advice. I have a yellow top and 1/0 stinger wire running to the back, and for my new setup, it's going to be 1 18" Fi BTL fully loaded...it will be powered by the same amp I have now...I can't remember the exact name but they don't make them anymore..Brutus 2608 something..it says around 2500 watts rms mono block amp... I will be putting an HC 800 Kinetik in the back with the FI, and I'm doing the big 3 upgrade as well, my alt is around 130 amps in a 2002 jeep grand cherokee laredo with stock amp.... I was wondering if the amp and everything will just...pound faces off...like, far louder than my two sealed 15's... Any advice on a battery etc would be nice...I can get videos when I get a video camera...just wanting to know what to do you know, am I missing anything that will cause me to be...sub-sensational lol Edited August 3, 2008 by Frozenbritches Quote 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo Hifonics Brutus Bxi2607D (FRIED...saving for ZX2500.1) 2 15" 07 L7's ported at 32hz Xplod POS for the MIDS, which are Memphis
Frozenbritches Posted August 3, 2008 Author Report Posted August 3, 2008 I can provide pictures of the install and everything just need some real experience and help. I could do it on my own but I'd like to do ALOT of research and perfect..I want it for a year like I had these.. And question, if I carpet it myself, if I carpet the inside of the port is that allowed???...does that mess up the tune Quote 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo Hifonics Brutus Bxi2607D (FRIED...saving for ZX2500.1) 2 15" 07 L7's ported at 32hz Xplod POS for the MIDS, which are Memphis

Frozenbritches Posted August 3, 2008 Author Report Posted August 3, 2008 Louder than the 18?....I mean, I'm running the same amp no matter what I get..I got that 2608 or what ever that supposedly claims 2600 watts rms..probably lower but that's perfect for 1 18..

Noobtastic14 Posted August 3, 2008 Report Posted August 3, 2008 spend 50-80$ and build a new ported box for the 15s, you'll probably be pleasantly surprised at the output and saves you the hassle of re-ordering buying blah blah blah -Drew Quote I am a United States Military Arts and Crafts Professional.

Frozenbritches Posted August 3, 2008 Author Report Posted August 3, 2008 ok so you're saying it won't be louder?..I know there are technicalities like what electrical I am on etc...But I can give all that information...I want a louder CLEARER sub...and I hear if I port a singl 18 fully loaded with 2500 watts rms and a port at 32hz with big 3 and 2 batteries, yellowtop up front...that I will be louder and clearer...and push more air at that... Maybe I'm beating a dead horse though, I should have known..either go 2 18's or go home...cause my 2 15's obviously beat the cone area of the 18..

Noobtastic14 Posted August 3, 2008 Report Posted August 3, 2008 yup! cone area makes a huge difference, as well as the box. i'd say build a new box before selling/purchasing any new gear. -Drew Quote I am a United States Military Arts and Crafts Professional.
