Good stuff. Sounds like you're lovin the college life, I know I am. Sadly I only have 1 year left (if everything goes right).

I have a Bl10 with p-chamfer on a JL 1000/1 in 1.1@33 with a 3'' aero and it gets pretty loud (nothing rediculous but pretty impressive for one 10). Just be careful where you put your port. Mine was upfiring and I was getting some port noise, which I couldn't stand. I just built a new enclosure this weekend for it and it is about the same size but the port is firing to the passenger side corner. The new port should be in tomorrow so I'll let you know how it sounds when I get it in.

It isn't possible to do two ported. I have a reg cab ranger with similair space as you and two ported wasn't even an option. One 10 ported fits fairly easily and gets pretty loud though.

Alright.....thanks M5.

I was on ca.com and saw a set of these for sale and I want to get them. But one of the tweeters is blown. Can I order a new set of tweeters from madisound or somewhere and hook them up to the pioneers passive crossover? Or would it sound bad because the crossover isn't made for those tweeters? I can't go active with them because I only have a 2 channel Sundown but for the price the guys asking I wanted to give these a shot.

I think the 3-10's would be a fun build and definitely sound good. Also, more cone area.

The seller didn't suggest getting the neo's. Someone else did.

I'm a broke college student right now and I've spent too much money already this summer. My student loans should be here around September so maybe I'll be able to sell the 100.2 and get a 100.4 and a 9887 by then.

Well I just ordered the 1'' SEAS Prestige textile dome tweeters and the LPG flush mounts. Hopefully it will sound good together with the passive crossover, or else they'll be up for sale on here along with the component set.

Well I don't know what to do then because I already paid the guy so I'm kind of stuck. Only one of the tweeters works and Pioneer doesn't have any in stock. Plus they're $100 bucks for one tweeter.

Yeah that's what my instinct was. But do you think I'll get good results with this plan? Or should I scrap this idea and just hold on to the mids for an active install in the future (probably wont be for a long time)?

Nevermind I found them. I prefer a laid back tweeter that isn't harsh sounding. Should I go with aluminum or textile dome?

someone on caraudio.com said SEAS neos would work well. But I can't find them on madisound.

sub up port back

I went on their website and they are $100 and aren't availabe for 60 days it says. So I dont want to do that.

It is 36 x 12 x 6 x 9. Comes out to around 1.1@34hz after displacements. I was thinking about just going with the normal aerosol spray paint but I kind of want to do something different.

First I would mess with your phase a little bit and see if you can get better reseluts that way. I would also go on ROE and download the 50hz test tone and burn it to a cd and then use your DMM from there. Or if you know a decent audio shop around your area you could go there and see if they have a o-scope.

I'm going to build a truck-style enclosure for a Fi Bl10 with a 3'' aero. Dimensions are w: 38 h: 12 d1: 6 d2:8 This is 1.217ft^3 internally. After the bl10 displacement it comes out to roughly 1.1ft^3. When determining the port length, online calculators asks for: Volume of Box in Cubic Feet Tuning frequency Port diameter Number of Ports I want to end up with a tuning of somewhere around 33-35hz, depending on how long of a port will fit in my box. So...... Do I put 1.1 in "Volume of Box" or do I have to figure out a proposed port length first, then find its displacement, then subtract its displacement from 1.1, and finally enter that value in "Volume of Box"? I know this is a confusing question but any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

bump for the evening help

Already registered there...just never posted. I like it over here more Thanks for all the tips/advice, its really appreciated.

You do awesome work...just awesome.

Ok, thanks. Where did you order those rainbows from? I'm going to start shopping around soon.

congrats...you'll be impressed.

Also, would there be much of a difference in sound between 1.1@33 vs. .85@35? The reason I'm building a new box is because the one I have now is too deep at the top. And the port is firing up and I'm hearing a lot of port noise. I want to try and fire the port into the passenger side corner.
