EclipseChris Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 so i have gotten birthday money and am trying to decide wether to get a new amplifier or get a sheet of mdf and make a new box. and ideas? i have a one 12" sub (sony xplode =[ ) and 2 10" (Q power) getting roughly 200-300 watts rms and hit alright but i want to get lows better because they are in sealed prefab boxes. any help is greatly appreciated Quote i resolve to be a nicer moderator.

You like to breath don't you? so do subs. If you build a nice ported box you'll notice a difference in the lows, but don't expect much from those subs.

Baydestrian Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 Ditch the sony xplod and give your other subs more power if they can handle it...mixing subs is not recommended Quote 2015 Mazda 6 JVF Customz 4.0 Proto 15>Wolfram W4500 @ .5ohm 2 Sundown Neo 6.5 + 2 CT Meso Tweeters (Front) x Kicker KS6.5 (Rear)>JL Audio VX400/4i NSB-AMG35 (front) / 40ah Lithium Headway (Rear) built by Erni Audio & Electrical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
