protocaster69 Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Okay guys... I been lookin' around askin' questions and stuff for a while... I have an 87 toyota regular cab truck. Heres whats goin' in it: 1 - AQHDC312 D2 1 - Power Acoustik PS1-4000D (rated at 2200w at 1 ohm) (I also have my eye on an AQ2200) 1 - Power Acoustik PS4-300 4 - Power Acoustik 6.5 Coaxials (sets) 4 - Power Acoustik tweeter (sets) 1 - Power Acoustik 7 band EQ Batteries TBD (one red top atm) 2x stock alts for the time being Running a VR3 touch screen DVD plater with USB and AUX in... The sub will be in a box in the bed (yes that means a blow thru... haha) Now... What I need help with... I want the box to hit really low notes... (jeezy, gucci, ect.) I need to know how big the box should be... I can do the calculation for the port size but I couldn't find how big the box should be. The ording of items will begin as soon as my tax check arrives in the 2nd week in feb. Untill then I'm gonna be designing my box, getting my bed cover, cutting my cab and so forth... thanks for all the help in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abervintageman42 Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 id do 3-4 cubes tuned to like 32hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protocaster69 Posted January 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 id do 3-4 cubes tuned to like 32hz I've seen some stuff on here about peoples using smaller boxes in order to be able to put more power on their subs... Do you think i'll need to take that into consideration? I know being that the amp is Power Acoustik it wont put out quite 3200wrms... Should I even worry about it?

protocaster69 Posted January 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Also... Does anyone have any idea what kind of power the subs are capable of handleing and how loud they are? I'm not expecting it to be super loud but itll be louder than anything around here... I really just want it too hit LOW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotloud555 Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 I don't meant to offend but why do you EQ in there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protocaster69 Posted February 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Ok thanks... That should work out fine... I'm gonna have pics up of the truck soon... Gotta go to the girls house and use her camera... I'm hoping my truck didn't get screwed up last night... apparently my antifreeze wasn't as strong as I thought... It got too 16 degrees last night and I woke up this morning and cranked the truck and the fan belt squeeled... I got out and looked and the coolant was frozen and the fan wasn't turning... The neck at the top of my radiator busted but none of my freeze plugs did so i have my fingers crossed that the block isn't cracked... I appreciate all the questions being answered... I have one more tho... lol Will 32hz tuning hit crazy lows? cause i'm willing to sacrifice some db output for it to hit low... really low.... haha I'm a low junkie... Edit: gotloud555 My head unit... Be that its a cheapo... doesn't have anything but bass and treble adjustment... I doubt the eq will even be on the subs tho... its mostly for the highs... My head unit is strange in that it cant produce much mid with out a distorting amount of bass... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
