SquishY

but if the box is built with the sub and port off axis then aiming it differently will change a lot. ive seen a few setups in suvs and hatches with sub and port up, and of course lots with sub up and port back. the box in my blazer now has about 4" between the port openings and the tailgate, ive been playing with making the space bigger and smaller but it seems best with 5-6"

Of looks like it might be just a little loud, but not very... Lets see this done did, gotta be impressive. Lets here Juvenile- Keep talkin, theres a few more songs but meh, thats the first one to mind.

Nope, no port noise. Ive run into another problem, setting gains with a DMM is kicking my ass. With a 60hz tone at 3/4 volume the sub out on my amp is reading only 5.3V~, but from math I see that it should be like 31-3V~?

I was going to up the box size to 5 cubes and use four 4". Id say its now is about 4.25 cubes. The bigger box plan of 5 cubes with four 4" gives a pretty flat response, Im having some issues with tuning 5 cubes to 31hz with either four 4" or two 6", they both end up just a tad to long for what i can fit with doing it sub up port back.

Why keep three instead of going to 4 with the increase in box volume? With putting the numbers into bassbox I get, the same cone displacement but the added possibilty of port noise. Im not building another box til Ive got money to play with again so some nice PSP flared may just get used then.

Holy crap, can I be on your team? Its like audio has become an abstract art form, I like it.

I have this HU as well as the Alpine in my truck now and liked the panasonic quite a bit more. It was just 120$ at an audio store here and has a lot more settings built in.

Like it a lot, it makes plenty power and doesn't even get warm with the .5ohm its seeing. The gain is still set low for the sake of my electrical, waiting on my second battery since I get voltage drop long before distortion.

Try to get some vids tomorow, probably can get a good lil bit of movement from a shirt. Hopefully the next box will be even better.

Huge difference, a lot louder and it actually flexs my truck now, vids to come when the chance arrives. Those are 4" tuned to 32~ since Im unsure of the actual box volume now.

So lets see how this goes. Dont have it all done now but more will be installed as time goes by and money comes into hand. 15" Mayhem with D1 gaps. AQ2200D Box in the first and second stage. Alpine CDA-9886(looked to cool like this to post a pic with the flash on) Im actually considering going back to my Panasonic CQ-7303U for the extra settings and motorized faceplate.

I would say just a redtop under your hood. They have a faster recharge rate so even with a small alt it should keep a nice charge.

Good point. Now if only I could get ladies because of the bass... Perhaps the seat flex could do something special

OK, so today was fun and now my truck is a little louder. The box started off looking like it did in my first post, and now it looks like. But to get there it had to look like. This box isnt permanent but just an experiment that turned out good, nice pretty box to come... Well whenever I get around to it.

its already been determined that tomorow im gonna frankenstein my current box to experiment with. if i use one 6'' i get a tad more cone movement and a lot mor vent airspeed. Didnt do the calculations to use three 4'', ive done two boxes before using round ports but this is the first one im doing a lot of work to try and get right for the fact of seeing what i can do and learning a good bit.
