30Hz.wav Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 Went to my first competition today and kinda wish I had a better score. Car is a 2001 2Dr Blazer. I hit a 142 at the dash with 1 15" Kicker L7, 1200 Wattz RMS in a custom box tuned to 32HZ at about 4 cubic feet. Is this a good score for a first timer, and for just 1 L7? I am thinking of moving it up to 2 18's and more power. Tips? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lance_98main Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 sounds good to me, i have a 2000 2 dr. blazer and i hit 137.9 at the dash sealed up, on right around 800 watts rms on a 15" diamond audio d3. my box is 4 cubes, and tuned at 32 hz. I would say a 142 is good. are your subs up or back, and which way is your port facing??

lance_98main Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 The best orientation i found in mine, was sub back port to the drivers side. I had 1 10" l7 in a box tuned at 36 hz, and hit a 135 sealed up. don't remember the cubes on it, its been a while. the scores are on a tl to.

30Hz.wav Posted May 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 (edited) sounds good to me, i have a 2000 2 dr. blazer and i hit 137.9 at the dash sealed up, on right around 800 watts rms on a 15" diamond audio d3. my box is 4 cubes, and tuned at 32 hz. I would say a 142 is good. are your subs up or back, and which way is your port facing?? Sub is facing up. Port facing up what frequency did you achieve that score with? I am not sure, I wish I knew. I played a swine sweep. I am guessing 37 or 38? Heres pic of sub\box for anyone that wants to see it. Guy there with 4 18's, 16,000 Wattz hit 163, that shit was loud as fuck.

97SSBlazer Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 I hit 144.6 DB with 2 L7 @ ~1000 RMS Ea. 12's tuned to 32Hz playing a Drake's "uptown" un modded. Stock elc. Quote lower tuning is just hard. I was surprised how loud 145 sounds at 35hz, and how quiet 145 sounds at 50hz. -= 2005 Tahoe LT =-Head unit: Pioneer AVH-X5500BHSSource: iPad Mini in dash Subs: 2 T1 12's Sub Amp: T1500-1bdCPWire: Rockford Fosgate 1/0 awgSignal Cable: MonsterFronts:Stock Bose for now:)Rears: Stock Bose for now:)MIds/High amp: Stock Bose for now:) 2005 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172529-2005-tahoe-my-17th-vehicle/ 2001 Monte Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/160030-2001-monte-carlo-my-16th-car-lol/page-2#entry25309381997 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemead...oe-6-15-rf-15s/2001 Impala Build Log: http://www.stevemead...katzkin-inside/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fritosaregood Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 advice/tips = play around with that sub more before you do 2 18s. figure out what your vehicle likes in terms of box position and tune. its easier to build alot of single 15 boxes than dual 18 boxes congrats on finally making it to a comp. they get addicting. I had one today too and set my new high score.
