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

[OldsBoomer]

OOOHHHHH love the sound of a Clamshell

haha me to man it would throw some sick air

[trulywickedcustoms]

trust me my first thoughts of a clam was 8 ssd 18"! but im agnst a wall thats just my prefrence.. althought the 8 would be insane!!! lol im just going to stick with the 9 15" im thinking that will do the job more than enough for me...

my last set up was all JBL

6 15" GTI

6 1600.1's (running at 3ohm bc the amps arnt 1 ohm stable and the subs are dual 3ohm)

and a decent box

and that got down pretty good but nothing like some FI's will do and especailly with some good power!!

that is true man! what is the lowest frequency that your wanting to play down to without worry?

[Playa Named Joe]

The SSDs should be fine on that power since the box is going to be kind of small. After displacements of port, subs, and bracing, they'll see proably about 2.75^3 ft per sub. You can always have your gain turned down alittle bit too. IF you do this build, it'll be sweet.

well jack was going to be designing my last box for my blow through on the dodge.. we had talked about staying around 33+ hz...

what you guys think?? decent hz for a good hairtrick/GP the last box i had peaked almost 50hz if i remember correctly? it was too high for me i love the low notes that choke you up

[LT.Smoke]

I would think that staying between 30-34 Hz should be a nasty low note GP setup

[OldsBoomer]

I would think that staying between 30-34 Hz should be a nasty low note GP setup

agreed and like i said before i know they cost more but the Q's will throw more air at those low notes and i'd prob tune to 30-32 that'll tons of air..

Me i just like the stupid low notes so my blowthru is going to be tuned in the 20's somewhere

awesome man thanks for the help guys just love hearing the advice for some fellow GP's or just some bass heads lol and wanted to make sure that id have the airspace for the 9 15's bc like i previously stated my GF and parents are both buying a sub each for my xmas gifts lol getting started on the bass!! iv got all my highs and highs amps just waiting the subs and sub amps, alts (2 or 4?) and some D3100's

thanks for the input guys

[LT.Smoke]

Never a problem helping a fellow bass head

Im a SQ guy lol

Im waiting to get some $$$$$ together to build a nasty GP setup because i dont want to destroy my brand new impala plus its my daily driver

Its nice to have someone openly accept suggestions and not get pissed when they ask for help and we help and its not waht they want to hear

[trulywickedcustoms]

heres the things iv got laid out iv been trying to decide back and forth from that are fairly close in the over all price range...

4- 18" FI btl fully loaded

2 AQ 3500.1d's

T-$3,336

9- 15" FI SSD's loaded

3- AQ 3500.1d's

T-$4,490

6- 15" FI btl fully loaded

3 AQ 3500.1d's

T-$4,855

the whole bass section of my build will take a while the whole thing will be pieced together... not all at one buy... iv kinda got it narrowed down to the 9- 15" or the 6- 15" just simply bci dnt want it to be the same and plus more cone area = Ground pounder/ mass air movement!!!!
