Yea the 15's would be perfect in that amount of space. The 18's would run on the small side.

Howdy! Nice car man

I went with 30 hz and loved it you should try it I can bang slowed music all day long!

Dang that sucks how much did you pay for em? Man just play em til they gave out I had a jl sub it had a rip within the first year I got it. It is now 10 years old and sittin in my closest sounding like new

Haha thanks it's an eye opener in person though!

Wassup fellas I built a box for a 18 btl but went with an aq hdc3 18 until Christmas. It is 8 ft3 at 30 hz. My problem is I think this box it too big for the hdc because anything above 40 hz sounds like trash but is a low end monster! also from 25 hz to 40 hz the excursion is the same! It's like the box is too big and it's acting like IB. Can some one help me out ha I want an ok topend instead of the junk I have know! Thanks

I would go for the n2 btl, the n3 is meant for spl but it will play music but not sound as good as the n2 and unless your competing the n2 is a beast sub. It should be louder in the optimal box than the 2 in a small box

Yikes! What? Everyone has to have something to cuddle with! I just chose my 18 haha! The pink furr gets alot of what the hell is that thing then they see the sub and hear and ask me how much I wanna sell it for haha

I will know for sure about a week before it, im going on a week long trip to spring river starting sunday so it's gonna suck my gas money and spare money funds super low so I gotta see if I'll be able to afford the fuel. I'll pm you if I can make it.

ha wow yall thanks for the replys i got pics coming up soon! so i got bored and took about 5 10in long 2x4's and screwed them to the inside of the box, it was like a whole new sub, it defintely picked up around the 40hz area a good bit as to know it is hurting my ears pretty bad if i turn it up, and i can hear the 45hz up to 65hz well and semi clear! tommorow i will take the sub back out and double the amount of 2x4's and see what happens. thanks again - Clint

...So your advice would be a smaller belt? No sir a smaller pulley would help.

Is there a way I could post with an I phone? If not I can when I get home at 5

Well how would y'all recommend puttin it in the enclosure

Well the reason I said they run low tunes for sound quality was because having a low tune usually gives a flat response, I think haha! Thanks for the explanation randal, you've helped me through a few of my questions in the past as well. Do you guyz have any suggestions as to take up space, I'm thinkIn foam in a can?

That the answer I was looking for! So would taking a cubic foot out make it more snappy and tight? Also the box is 1 cubic foot over spec. But all this still doesn't explain why I can't physically see the tuning frequency all oft other boxes I was able to see it. Thanks for the replies guyz!!!

Bootybump!

I think it means alternator rpms if so I can vary by belt speed and pully size it always rotates faster then the motor

I thought people run low tunes for sound quality, I'm not looking for spl up higher but it sounds slow and sloppy like as if it didn't have control. If I take a cubic foot out of the box to put it back with in manufact specs would it be more tight? Also would it raise my tuning?

Also it seems that it's not tuned, I know it is but I see about 2 inches of excursion at full power from 40hz to 25
