hzsogood Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 WEll I sold my lvl 3s and I THOUGHT I had them NET @ 4.06 after displacement , but for some weird reason that was not the case It was 4.06 Gross, .87 for port displacement ( 3x13.5x23 ) and .30 for the subs.. So I was only at about 2.9 CF net They still sounded great and I put up my best #s ever with that box ( 145.4 legal , 146.8 driver door open off an Alpine MRp-M2000 ) Also along with the net of the box only being 2.9 CF for 2 12s, I was getting port noise because I didnt have enough port either ( probably should have gone 4" wide ) Which brings me to my question.. If I actually make the optimum enclosure plus more port, this box will be WELL over 5 CF .. It was nearly impossible to get this one in there, so its gonna be tough to go any bigger than MAYBE 4.3 cf GROSS .. So Should I go with 12s again and completely fill the trunk again, or go with 10s and make the optimum size enclosure for them.. Because Im guessing 2 lvl 4 10s would only need about 3 cf MAX, then the port and sub displacement would make it about 4 , Basically what the box I had my 12s in was.. Suggestions?

What are you running this weekend?? Well at least the grand prixs have room, and so to the newer 99+ grand ams , but my 96 GA has a tiny ass trunk, and i dunno if I should try smething different or not.. Ive always had 12s, probably beause it was the best combo for cone area with the limited room I have.. And the car is only a commuter car/ Beat box So I dont wanna dump a ton of $$ into this one.. which Is why I was checking out 10s and maybe even a single 15 with alot of power.. I wanted to have a daily setup with at least 2K rms .. I already miss my lvl 3s and not having beat is boring as chit, especially when im in my car 8-10 hrs a day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
