Bumpindemlowzz Posted November 28, 2008 Report Posted November 28, 2008 I am soon hoping to put a blow though in my 97 standard cab s10 but i need help with what amplifier, how many batteries i should go with and alternators... The sub would be the new Ascendant Audio SMD 18" as what indicated in title which comes out next soon. Here are some pictures of what i would like to do. 2010 Silverado 18" DC XL 18 DC 2k XS Power Batts
AI James Posted November 28, 2008 Report Posted November 28, 2008 since nobody really knows the final results of the sub its foing to be real hard to give you some solid help on that sub. As for all your other questions they can be answered with some searching.
mhart Posted November 28, 2008 Report Posted November 28, 2008 2 extra batts and a 200 amp alt would be ok for 3000-4500 watts, how does that box sound?

Guest Posted November 28, 2008 Report Posted November 28, 2008 imo i think there would be some serious box flex on the wood infront of the sub. i might be wrong though
Forevrbumpn Posted November 28, 2008 Report Posted November 28, 2008 for a woofer of that scale, I see to many flaws in that box I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.
Bumpindemlowzz Posted November 29, 2008 Author Report Posted November 29, 2008 Would that box i think ill double up on the mdf. I have no idea how it would sound but for my situation i think its my only option... 2010 Silverado 18" DC XL 18 DC 2k XS Power Batts
wL<3bass Posted November 29, 2008 Report Posted November 29, 2008 Since this woofers is gonna be upwards of 80lbs I would double layer the woofer mounting baffle and definitely use t-nuts and allenhead bolts, as well as double layer the piece the woofer will be firing into.

AI James Posted November 29, 2008 Report Posted November 29, 2008 its never your only option, how are you calculating tuning on it? All those differences in air exiting is sure to be a wierd tuning
Forevrbumpn Posted November 29, 2008 Report Posted November 29, 2008 another thing, Iam sure that SMD sub is more than 12" deep, just a guess so you will have to compensate for wood thickness, and woofer depth and like Will said, to atleast double layer the MDF/Wood where the sub will be mounted at I have a ritual called "terminator".
