BOX HELP!! can it fit? (9- 15'' FI ssd's)

[trulywickedcustoms]

ok i know iv been off here for a while but i ended up having to sell one of my truckd and it ended up being the dodge that i was almost done with... now im back at work on my 06' suburban im wanting to try to fit 9- 15'' FI ssd's subs up port back... ? the measurements i have that id like to keep it within are:

50" - width

50" - length -- maybe 1 or 2 more inches

24" - depth -- (+ or -) 1 inch

most likely 1" or 1.5" dowels for bracing, all baltic birch 3/4" double top baffel, fiberglass insides, small 45's in the corners

id like to get a lower tune out of it but im unsure if i even have the space for the subs??

i know i dont know much about box calculations but, i will be paying someone for a reputable box desgin with all the cut list etc.. no room for error!

the system will be powered by 3- AQ 3500.1d's that leaves it with roughly 1,200 to 1,400 per sub (dual 2ohm subs) wiring the voice coils in series them self, and the 3 subs in parralel for a load of 1.33 ohms on each amp

thanks for the help!

Yes you have enough space, I would do about 360 sqin of port, tuned to ~32hz. That would be about ~26 cuft after port. And you have enough room on top to do 3 across and 3 back. Should be pretty loud.

-thanks for the quick response!! and yea thats why i decided on the 9 it made for a good ohm load split between 3 amps and i can keep the subs neat and tidy by 3 deep and 3 wide! i was just unsure on airspace and tune hz... is the 1,200 per ssd to much?

-and the other question i had, was if any one has any thoughts on if the 9 15" ssds would be louder (ground pounder not number thrower) than 4 18 FI BTL fully loaded on 2 AQ 3500.1d's roughly 2,100 per btl??

i just like the 9 15" bc it doesnt seem sor norm like the usually system you always see in the tahoes and burbans

thanks agn

thanks man, yea that was my truck i was doing the blow through in had all the doors fiberglassed and highs n stuff finished but i had to sell it man...it was sad but it was either the dodge or my burban and with my 1 yr old son i had to choose the more reliable one ... but yea when the ex is hitting me for 700$ a month in child support i had to sell some shit fast!!! lol

im back on track now though with a new build!!! it may be slow bc of finances but my parents and my new GF are buying me a sub a each for xmas and im buying 2 or more so id say by the time xmas gets here i should be looking at 5 of the 9 sitting around hopefully!!

If your looking to play a little lower i'd try the Fi Q's from what testing i've done on the subs. The Q's with the more xmax in my cases(yes all are different) were able to give more at the lower end. Now i did give the SSD'd my AQ 3500.1 granted the speaker wire was extremely long(from my truck to my friends truck). It was at .7 ohms nomial and i dno what rise was but they finally came to live with the power i was able to give them.

I still think the Q's are a little better for the low end. its to bad you couldn't fit 6 18's lol

but 9 15's is bound to be SICK! i cant wait to see this.

I know the Child support game all to well bro... Just take it 1 step at a time and it will come together and you will have a streetable music demon on your hands when all is said and done

i was actually thinking about doing 6 18" but if i go that route then the back of the box (port exit) will be super close to the hatch within 3" id say... too close IMO ? anyways im thinking the 9 15" will get it done! and its alittle easier on the bank to buy a few at a time
