Help On Choosing

First off all I blew one off my subs. I built a box for the 2 12s at about 4.0 cubes ported at 33 hertz. I wanna get some fi btls I will build a bigger box later in the winter but will they at least works in that box for now

How much power do you have?

You're only going to have about 1.7 cubes or so per sub after displacement so you'll need probably 4kw between them or they'll just burn the coils due to insufficient movement.

Damn that's what I was thinkin I just didn't wants to spend money twice I only got a 1500 watt rockford amp I plan on gettin the 4k rockford later so you think I will ruin them in that box then till I can get a new one made

2 cubes per BTL is no where near enough room for a BTL. That might be alright with a 12" but after displacement.

And you will neee around 3k rms with a smaller enclosure because it will act as a sealed, not letting it move as much so more power will get it moving.

You dont need a lot of power all the time on a BTL though, you can use it as a daily system. I just turn down my amp during the day which cuts the power draw of the amp since you are feeding it less voltage. Its when you send a lot of power and its not moving much is where there can be problems.

So I should prolly not try it cusse I will end up ducking something up
