your opinion on if it'll fit


Recommended Posts

so ive decided that i wanna do my own system and take the one in my car out. it has 2 12" xplods in a memphis box. sounds alright. but i want better than xplod. SO! if you didn't know, i have a 95' ford escort lx (linky - http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/80935-what-ive-been-up-to/ ).

well i wanna try for 2 15"s. i was thinking cheap, but good. so ive come up with 2 15" audiopipe TS-IP15W's. now, my problem is trying to figure out if it'll fit. :/ trunk is 34W 28.6L 20H. so could i make it fit? somehow? or should i just try to stick with 12"s and maybe do 3 or 4 12"s? either way, im gonna do a new system. i would just like to have the 15's. the 12's are almost the same price.

so ideas? any help is great. thanks!

you gotta think is more really a better option for you? box space can make or break how a woofer performs.

if you buy quality stuff and plenty of power itll be as loud as all those woofers

my 3512 is louder than my CVR 15's but it also has 3x the power they did and proper airspace

dont try and stuff a shit ton of stuff in a small spot. most of the time you can get the same results with less stuff.

I assume all of these box's you are talking sealed. I think you would be more satisfied with a ported enclosure. If I was in your position I would go with a pair of high powered 10's in a 3-4 cuft ported enclosure tuned to 32-34 hz

i was thinking leave the 12 sitting in the box in the hole and duck tape from the bottom of the sub to the bottom of the baffle so the sub doesnt free air. would that work?

well i'm sure i could fit 3 12"s in my trunk no problem. hell, i could fit 4 probably and there be good space. but my thing was the 15"s. if i can't fit the 15"s nicely, then i won't. that was my concern. so i guess imma just stick with 12"s and see what i can do with them. thanks for the help.

i could fit 3 ported. 4 probably sealed. id probably just do 3. but i have the 2 in there now with it ported and have room for another.

How big is your box? It says memphis in your sig so that means it is a prefab which is probably garbage. Just trying to help you out and advising on a new custom box for a pair of nice 10's or 12's (not sony xplauds)
