mhart Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 i need some help, i have a 1991 ford ranger ext. cab and can't decide what sub set up to do, both will be powered by 2) rf t40001bd amps. 12- 12" fi ssd or dc lvl3 sealed or 4-15" fi btl or dc lvl5 ported will the extra cone area make up for the lack of port? what will sound better? i want more of a street beater/demo system. thanks.

Jextel Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 It really depends of the install and the tuning of the port..now if it was a straight SPL i would lean towards the 4 15's because you could wall them and tune them around 50hz or higher..now if it was a daily driver and wanted loud low end bass(32-33hz and down) i would do the 12 12's sealed.. its really up to you and what your tryin to do... I ust notice you said you wan a street beater/demo system..i would do the 12 12's Quote http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3042878TEAM DEADLY HERTZ "GET LOUD OR DIE TRYIN"only the loudest will survive.

onlyinajeep Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 i would say the 12s would hold up better for demoing because of the heat on the coils would be better dispersed so you could play longer Quote TEAM PURE Team South http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/195192-8-pure-audio-15-flat-wall-chevy-crewcab-dually-vid-page-4-s/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psturmer Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 12 12's takes no skill. anyone can build a sealed box for them and have it be resemble loud. i vote 4 15's all the way. more low end, more efficient.
