marine87 Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 Alright, so I've decided to go with audioque. I don't have enough room for 4 18's( need 22 cubic feet net, only have 20) but I dunno whether to just do 2 18's or 4 15's. I want it to be loud and low, so I'm willing to use all my available space. Just want some opinions on the topic. Thanks Quote Corporal, USMC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k3n12ock Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 (4) 15s = more cone = "more louder". Then again it also depends on how well the box is designed/built, what kind of power they are getting, and how stiff your electrical is. You won't be disappointed with the AQ's either.

I'm powering them with 2 ap3000's. And I'm not building the box, I have absolutely no experience in the matter. And idea how much space I'll need to make 4 15's happy?

mlstrass Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 18cubes net tuned to 35Hz will do quite well on the lows. I run 4 15's in a wall that's around 17-18cubes, but off a lot more power then you plan to run... You could do 4 18's in 20cubes net, but it wouldn't be ideal. Tune low and throw 4 ap3000's at them and it should hit hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tune low and throw 4 ap3000's at them and it should hit hard. Are you referring to the aluminum coils? I didn't think the coppers could run on 3krms. Should I break them in with 2 amps, and add the other 2 later? AQ's website says to be careful with power when breaking them in.
