cichlidfort Posted May 4, 2009 Report Posted May 4, 2009 Assuming both setups had the same amount of total watts (2000) and the box was built good tuned around 32 hz what would you guys think would get louder?

01xtreme Posted May 4, 2009 Report Posted May 4, 2009 Whats the tuning on your box again? There's a lot to take into consideration, but 2 15" L7's have substantially more surface area than 1 18"level 4. I think im probably going to lean towards the kickers, though.

Right now my box is tuned like 35-36 hz. But I wanna get low. I was told that 18s have the ability to get a lot lower then Kicker L7s. Should I just redo my box?

Solid_State Posted May 4, 2009 Report Posted May 4, 2009 Depends on your goals, you will most likely get lower peak SPL with a lower tuned box, but obviously you will be able to play lower. Low 30's should dip pretty low for music while still giving you good output Quote

Low 30's should dip pretty low for music while still giving you good output The tuning of my Jeep makes it really easy for my car to hit the highs really well. But I believe the tuning of my box (like 36hz) is not allowing them to get low. Should I go for like 30-31 hz? Quote 2008 Chevy Impala (undercover cop style) Setup in the makings
Slinky Posted May 4, 2009 Report Posted May 4, 2009 you coult tune it around 32 hz and be hittin the lows nicely Quote DD M4 Rockford Fosgate P500-4 SoundQubed HDC415 w carbon fiber cap 2 Rockford Fosagate T1675-S XS Power D3400 Under Hood XS Power D5100 in rear Michael Singer 200A Alt Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/153901-2012-veloster-update-842013-wall-build-4-15s/
