Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through. Hammerdown... 1% no links to outside websites, business related FB/YT pages allowed.

baaudio Posted January 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 well the biggest reason he wants tens is cuz you can get a good amount of cone area in a relatively small box. hes not looking to sacrifice the whole trunk as he uses it on a daily basis. i can get some brands fairly cheap from my shop i work at, but he just doesnt want the mainstream stuff. thats why im running diamonds, i get them at cost +10% Team NWSPL baaudio Build Log 2001 GMC Sierra walkthrough 4 Mechman Elite 370s, 10 AGM batteries, 3 Crossfire XS v2 18s, Crossfire 8k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAM_Designs Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 If you want something that'll work in a small box, look into the Dayton Reference HO at partsepxress.com. That'll be right in his price range. Another one that works very good in small boxes is the Mach 5 IXL, bit it's a little over his budget. It is, however, a higher excursion woofer. Both of these subs will only need .75ft^3 at the most. Tune to 32hz and you're golden.
