need help with new system in my blazer

[96Blazer]

Right now in my 1996 s10 blazer i have two rockford 12's; old 1999 rfz1812's.....and a "800" watt cuspid am-4503......ugh. right now im looking at 4 p2d410's for my next system in a sealed box in the back of my blazer running off a rockford prime R1000-1D amp. Im wondering if there are any other ways to spend my money? using roughly the same budget im sure you guys can come up with something. ported boxes would probably be my best bet as im not worried about SQ just some SPL. Though I would need help having the box designed as I have no idea how to design a ported box. Lastly id like to keep it rockford if possible.

yeah man for sure go ported if you want to get loud

if you want spl, start out with a prefab box, they usually are pretty close to the recommend specs for the subs you're wanting to get...but if you want pure spl then one way to learn is download torres calculator, it'll give you all the dimensions for your box including port size. There are lots of info on building a box, i built mine living in an apartment, i cut all the pieces inside and glued/screwed them together and bought 2 4" aeroports.. Sounds good for the lows.

My alternator is stock but I can upgrade if need be to a bigger one. My battery (i only have one at the moment) is an everstart (made by johnson controls not exide) Maxx 1N. which is a decent battery. My budget is also about 5 or 600 dollars give or take. I can go higher if need be but id like to keep it fairly cheap seeing as im still in highschool.

So ive been doing my research and measurments and decided that Id rather not have 4 10's and then started looking at 6 12's which i quickly dismissed. I think 4 12's or 4 15's would be best for me at the moment im just not sure if ill be able to have a big enough box in the back of my 96 4 dr blazer to fit 4 15's in a ported box. I do not want the box above the window line. anyone have any advice on weather i should go with the 4 p2d412's or 4 p2d415's? thank you. Oh and again im looking more for low window shaking, roof flexing, ear bleeding bass then sound quality. thanks

i think the 2 fully loaded ssd 15's on 2400 watts rms with the box i designed will get that kind of bass

Take a look at my build log cause I have the same year blazer as you. I currently have 2 12 inch P3's in a 6 cubic foot box and takes up almost all of my room in the back, so I know you can get 6 cubes back there and be below the window line. My amps are currently mounted to the speaker box cause I have no room for them anywhere else and it works fine for me. I would go with the 4 12's firing up and the port on the bottom of the box going back bouncing off the tailgate. Mine sounds hella good and I love it!

If u go a lill above the window line u can get 9 cubes that's what I have for my 2 level 4 15s
