AA98hoe Posted October 1, 2010 Report Share Posted October 1, 2010 I understand were you are coming from if you are like me i get use to it very fast. ive changed my setup 7-8 times this year alone from kicker hifonics dd to dc. if you get your box right on then you can play with alternators,batteries, vcms,wire bussbars, deadening,then highend soeakers amps etc. its neverending believe me. i thought i would never be happy but once you star hitting low 154s like i am its enough for daily. to be honest i cant roll around with my shit full tilt. it makes me see double, and gives me a migraine after 20 min. and ive been in some loud cars.i usually have my bass knob down and enjopy my highs. as far as port up thats your only option. have you thought about going with 3 woofers? bet it would be louder than 4, and you could do rear port Quote TEAM DC AUDIO VEHICLE:98 chevy tahoe 2wd 3-4 drop HEADUNIT:alpine 9886 PREAMP:arcaudio FRONT STAGE:4-6 1/2s selinium,DD component set and 4-selinium tweeters in each door KICKPANELS:jl audio 5 1/4 REAR DOORS: dd components 6 1/2s HIGHS AMPS:zapco 750.2 on front doors,zapco an another 750.2 on kicks and rear doors SUBS:4-ascendant audio 18s with 5 spiders in a custom box built by KINGSUV SUB AMP: 2-dc7.5s ALTERNATORS: 3-mechmans 1- 425comp, 1-smd spec350, 1-270 with adj voltage harness on custom dc bracket WIRE:10-runs 0g front to back BATTERIES:6-d1400s TL results:157.1 at 38hz and 156.8 at headrest score @37hz.

TeamHT Posted October 2, 2010 Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 Tearing the car apart with 11k? and without proper electrical highly doubt you're doing anywhere close to the rms. and something was said earlier that stood out to me, you don't want to dampen or upgrade the electrical to see what performance you get with the enclosure itself? these upgrades are what allow you to use an enclosure to its fullest capability. you're losing performance without these upgrades and therefore not seeing proper performance of your enclosure. my personal opinion, don't go all out in one aspect only to halfass it another.

dohckiller808 Posted December 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 i got the box built built for 4 running 3 right now each sub seeing ~7 cubes port at 12 per. it sounds pretty damn good. tl it legal at 151.2 @36hz, 151.1 34-39hz, 148.6 @ 29hz (wondering now if its dropping from my subsonic filter) burping one after another. subs not heating up. cant wait to recone that last one to drop my load.

BanginOnABudget Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Im just wondering, do you guys even run your subs through design programs? i know some of you guys have 18"s as 30 hz which is good, but if you put the numbers down in design you play at like -5db@30 hz. Just a little curious if you guys even take the extra step to ACTUALLY design a box. not trying to thread jack or bash. Also, if you find the specs on the lvl 5 i would love to have them to put in a BBP file. qes, qts, qms, fs, vas, so forth : ) Quote im taking out my passenger seat, battery is disconnected, going to unwire and take out the three amps, take out the 70+ lb box, then the platform so i can crimp 1 wire. Almost as bad as those fegs that put those horns in their grills and roll down the street distorting the block.... 1990 Jeep Cherokee 2 Dr. Big-3 in 0g on Stock Alt. Pioneer 6.5" and 5.25"s temp. until i can afford the new crescendos. Pioneer 6000ub Reciever NO amps at the moment. SA-15 on 1kw coming soon. MSG Me for a free enclosure design!! Flared port kits coming soon!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwright27 Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Starting fs of the 5s is like 70 hz iirc. After break in it drops to 33 if I'm not mistaken. I could be wrong. As far as the others I'm not sure. Quote 2006 F-150 4 DC XL M2 18's Walled Daily Driver XS Power 4 DC 3.5kw Team DC Team S.P.L.
