DBz Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 I have this setup right now, 2 L5 12's, any recommendations on what subs I should get next? I was thinking of sealing off the trunk and putting the box with 2 18s in the back seat, but what subs would hit hard but still in a trunk setup? any input is much appreciated thanks (2) Kicker L5 12's Alpine IDA-X305 HU Dual Optimas Big three Kenwood EQ RF Components Hifonics Brutus 1K (Subs) Alpine MRP 250 (Mids/Highs) Lots o' sound deadening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of sealing off the trunk and putting the box with 2 18s in the back seat, but what subs would hit hard but still in a trunk setup? any input is much appreciated thanks I can guarantee you 1 18 would be louder than 2 18's. Why? You're not going to fit a 15+ cube box after displacement into your trunk. If you can fit a big enough box for 1 18, go for it. If not I'd go with 1 15. The make and model would depend on what kind of amp you are going to be running. For example, while the BTL may be Fi's best sub, I would prefer a BL if I was only running say a 2k amp.

iKidwell Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 i'd have to agree with fr34k, you dont have 15 cubes in a trunk..1 15 xl or wait for the new nightshade. c'mon now, if i was shooting an 8 year old, it wouldnt be MY 8 year old. i recently got a Pyle PL1590BL and i was building an enclosure for it tuned to 25 hz. i didn't have any tools to cut a circle so i hit it with a big hammer. 2003 Infiniti G35 Sport Sedan Build in Progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THEKINGsBACK Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 i'd have to agree with fr34k, you dont have 15 cubes in a trunk..1 15 xl or wait for the new nightshade. make sure u seal off your trunk with whatever you decide to do.. and have everything firing in to the car. sub and port.. depending on the amp your running.. ied say go for the new Z 15.. or 2 regular level 4 12s.. or the higher light of audioque subs the heavyduty.... he wouldnt be the first to say they did a 167 with a system like that (one that clearly DOESNT), but i have to say, he didnt beat me anywhere, ive never competed against the guy. If he thinks his does a 167, mine would probably put him in a coma. :hairtrick: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iKidwell Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 i love my nightshade v1, the bl i used to have doesn't even compare. c'mon now, if i was shooting an 8 year old, it wouldnt be MY 8 year old. i recently got a Pyle PL1590BL and i was building an enclosure for it tuned to 25 hz. i didn't have any tools to cut a circle so i hit it with a big hammer. 2003 Infiniti G35 Sport Sedan Build in Progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
