Xcon Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 Hi everyone. I just started to get into the whole car audio stuff and right now I have 2 cvr 10's with a 500 watt alpine amp . I'm not exactly sure on the box size or what it's tuned to. :/ Other then that I have stock everything else. But, with what I have now I hit around 137. I was wondering where a good place to start upgrading to hit high 140's. Someone told me to put 2 more cvr 10's in it with a fosgate T1500-1bd with the port and sub facing up towards the glass. Just curious what you guys think. Quote New Car! New system starting soon hopefully depending on money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namosh Posted December 6, 2009 Report Share Posted December 6, 2009 I think going from 137 to high 140's is quite a jump. Quote My Ram Quad Cab Blow-through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xcon Posted December 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2009 Well, Money really isn't a problem I was told I could hit it pretty easy with the T1500-1bd and 4 cvr 10's. The guy I know now that has 4 of those hit's around 148. Quote New Car! New system starting soon hopefully depending on money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xcon Posted December 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 Right now I have 2 cvr 10's I am not sure of what it's tuned to or anything. But, I bought it from someone that went to competitions He said that the box was built for max spl. Quote New Car! New system starting soon hopefully depending on money.

Boon Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Then it's pretty weaksauce. 2 10's on 500w should crack 140 in a pure fart box in a hatchback. Quote 10.x volts fo' life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSundownFire Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Id say you got screwed on the box. Id say start from scratch and build your own. The enclosure is a huge part of your output.

Xcon Posted December 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 It probably could do more then that there is something wrong with my amp and it doesn't put out the full power it should. I'm getting a new one when I get paid next week and me and a guy at my local audio shop tested it on the same model of amp I have and I hit 144.3 yesterday. Quote New Car!

Xcon Posted December 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Same everything just a different amp. I just have to wait and get a new one next week. I have no clue what's wrong with it.
