phimpju Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 HEY,.... i Am in need of some advice.. Would a box with 38" x 14" x 26" and a 6" port Tuned at 34 HZ be good for 2 KICKER Solo X 12's in an EXPEDITION? I am running them with 2 SOUNDSTORM F3600D 1800 watt RMS at 2 OHMS Mono AMPS... This was a box seen on ebay for $219 free shipping and the AMPS were $160 a piece. If I got a box built what would the recommend specs be and an Estimate price also? Any recommendations or suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sp33dyG Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 (edited) I dont think them Soundstorms are going to push them very well x2 and i think that box may be alittle 2 small for those subs kicker recommends a 3-6cu.ft. box for 1 solo x 12 giving it about 1400-2000watts rms so basically u probably need an 8 cu.ft. box with either 2 T20001bd's (one on each sub), T40001bd, 2 DAT 2500.1, SAZ-3000D Edited April 14, 2009 by Sp33dyG the only person i wouldnt let build my box would be Ray.

jsmoke222000 Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 For 2 solo X 12's I would build the following: Port inner dimensions = 10 31/32" H x 10 31/32" W x 6" D Box dimensions - 40" W x 32" D x 24" H That will give you almost 1/2 cubic ft. for bracing.

raytard Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 (edited) box seems too small, and the port seems a little on the small side for SPL subs. imo i wouldnt trust a box off ebay with good equipment and idk about those amps, i cant find a single picture of the power side/fuses, or a rating for current draw i'm willing to bet its fused for like 40-60amps edit: its fused at 90 amps...so you'd be lucky to see 900-1000 watts out of that thing, ever. it will never make 1800watts, or the 3600 it says at 1ohm, let alone do it RMS just keep in mind you're only giving them 1000 watts, you might be better off doing a very large port in a pretty large box to get some decent output, unless you want to spend some cash on a good amp, an aq2200 would be a similar price and do more power more cleanly.

jsmoke222000 Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 oops, my bad! For 2 solo X 12's I would build the following: Port inner dimensions = 10 31/32" H x 10 31/32" W x 6" D Box dimensions - 38" W x 32" D x 22" H Woofer displacement is .19 cu ft per sub Those specs will give you 12.35 cu ft. that should allow for some 2x4 bracing. You are looking for 12 cubic ft. with that port. Remember to double your baffle also. Jared Nixon A.K.A.
