Danny's New Box

Hey Basshead69, I tried to research these subs a little bit last night, but couldn't find much. Even the ones I did find were listed as 4 ohm dual voice coils... which wouldn't work for me, but you say yours are 2 ohm dvc's ? Do they make these same subs in a 2 ohm dvc 15" ?

Any place you could suggest to find more info on these subs, plus possibly buy ?

Oh, and one more thing; Obviously your into the SPL aspect (which is cool... so am I to a certain degree) but how would you rate these subs in the SQ department ?

Thanks,

Fish

I believe they do. You would have to call Bob at American Bass. www.americanbassusa.com. He is usually the one that answers the phone too. In a proper sq box, I think they will sound really good.

Nice box but eek, isolate those amps from the box! The vibration will snap the legs off the FETs otherwise

Some nice numbers too, especially considering the low tuning

THE VFLs are BEASTSSS!!

I have no idea where to mount them.

on my box what i did for the amps is i got some rubber bushings off of some old shocks and mounted them between the amp and the box as a "suspension" so to speak works great..

I was able to gain 2 tenths by going up to 52 hz. I did a 146 sealed on the dash today during testing. I may try some box positioning before the competition tomorrow. Does anybody have any other suggestions or ideas?

drop the back seats and try to move it closer to the front of the car. i've seen some tilt the box up in the back so the woofers kinda face upwards at an angle.

My seats were dropped when I did this. I will try to move the box closer to the front of the car. I will have to swap my power and ground wire to do this.

Hey fellas. I have went from a 146.0 to a 147.1 all within a day at our Competition Only event in Wilmington NC today and this is sealed, on the dash. This is also with a 3 ohm impedance rise in which my 1500 watt rms amps are only doing about 734 a piece. I hope I remember what all I did so I can hopefully improve on the 13th show. Derrick824 can build some serious enclosures guys. I think we can get even more out of this setup with some more testing and tuning.

Gained a tenth at a local competition new number is 147.2 sealed on the dash. I have to have people hold my back door and glass and someone sit on the front of my suv to keep the flex down. I think I can get more out of this box. I haven't tried strapping the amplifiers yet. Definitely want to try strapping and see what I can get.
