Zade08 Posted December 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 Cool. Thanks for all the info guys.My escape is small but Im not sure if sub forward is best.

Nightshade Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 I think that sub up and port to the driver's side will work better than sub up port back. Just build the box so you can flip it to fire the port back or to the side and see which is louder on the TL when you get to test it.

Zade08 Posted December 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 What kind of number do you think the bl and 1500d could hit. Just a ballpark number.

Boon Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 A BL 15 on a touch over 1500w? I would say 145 is a good target, but I don't know your vehicle... it might suck, it might be the next CRX. You'll only find out when you try it. Quite a lot of air to be shifting with a 15 though...

BenH Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Do sub to the side and ports back. We can do 149's and 150's with single 15's in SUV's. Quote 1992 GMC Sonoma 2008 MECA S1 Champ, 2010 MECA S2 Champ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derrick824 Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Sub up ports to the driver's side works best for me. 148.8s with a Sundown NightShade 15" powered by a Sundown saz-1500d. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zade08 Posted December 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 (edited) I have a guy with two solo x 10 baskets. Lookin at gettin one from him so I can save my bls the beating since Im runnin the sundown at .5 ohms. Honestly should I not even wastee my money rebuilding that thing and just look for another sub basket? (E.A. Btl 10 or 12) Ever since I found out about Kapton V.C. formers and looked into other brands Kicker has let me down a bit. Also Derrick thanks for the decals bro. Just got them in the mail today.
