i have 2 currently they are 4 ohm i have a bxi1606 could i run a 3rd sub an the amp be ok how would i wire them up series or parallel? also i have about 10-11 cubes to work with i would like to port the box is it enough space?

[Guest]

if they are single coil

it is safe.

if they are dual coils

also safe

[kingcabon20s]

thanx for the help what about a box

[kingcabon20s]

i calculated it up i have about 8.19 cube maybe 8.5 this big enough to run ported?

[Guest]

least recommended for 3 is 9cuft., most is 15cuft.

[kingcabon20s]

i can squeeze between 2.5-2.85 after displacement of the sub for each sub would it be best if i ran them in a shared box if this would work what should my tuning of the port be?

why is it that only a select few respond to my threads seems like unless your runnin fi,re,aa,dd, or some other expensive stuff no one responds thank you kranny for your help bro i was able to purchase my 3rd sub i jus need help with a box now

go sealed, its too small

it was already said, you didnt read it

9 would be a minimum, plus port, 15ish is better

if you have maybe 8, just build a spec sealed box, ported wont fit

[kingcabon20s]

those are fact. specs meade is runnin a smaller box than recc isnt he? are there calculations before or after displacement of the sub? i can get 2.75 a sub so 8.25 after displacement is this not enough to run ported?

[raytard]

steve's is smaller than spec because he is running over double the RMS to them

you are WAY underpowering yours, and should make as big a box as possible, since you have to decide besides building an ideal sealed box and a bad ported one, just do the one you can do well and make it look good.
