I'm gonna have a box built next month its gonna be ported at either 32 or 33hz with 1inch thick mdf and will be around 5.6 to 6.2 cubic feet i got the bp option at they are dual 1 ohm i'm running a JBL GTO 1400.1 amp which will be wired @ 4 ohms to push 1200 watts rms until i down the road get get a different amp my question is a. i kinda want to go with soundstream what model would you recommend and i would kinda like to run 4 ohms so i have very little distortion b. i might not be able to fit a box that is 5.6 cubic feet or above if it is 1" thick mdf should i go 3/4 thick with 1" for the front part and some braces or 1" thick all the way around and make the port a little bit smaller than 12 sq inch per cubic feet so i can meet the recommended volume or should i just go sealed? I really want a ported box though although i got a friend that has a couple kove audio 15s sealed and they sound really good also this is in a 04 mustang minus a backseat I got a soundstream taruntual 4 channel coming in the mail 2 infinity kappa 6x9s later on im gonna get some infinity componets up front and put a kinetik battery/ 240 amp altenator in

how will the btl compare to the Incrimnator audio warden 21?

To the guy that said something about passive radiators where do I find some online the only ones i've seen is those Audiopulse ones and it sure as hell seems not cheap to me according to Winisd i would need like 3 or 4 of them thats what 300-400 dollars not to mention all of them gotta fit inside of my car Anyway I talked to a guy about building a custom box He said he could make the box big like 7 cubic feet but it will go into my trunk partially (this is gonna be a non walled box that replace's back seat going partially into the trunk my question is anyone with box's replacing backseat should I go subs firing towards the seats port towards roof or the other way around also If I got into a wreck do you think the subs would still stay in the box if it was towards the seat cause thats the last thing I would need in that situation would be gettin hit in the head with a 35 pound woofer lol so im looking at somewher around 6.5-7 cubes @ 33 hz after displacement Sorry for bringing this topic up but I want it done right when I'm shelling out like $500 plus for a box

According to WinISD I figured i could get 5.4 cubes after the port and it is at least 4 dbs from 23hz on all the way up to to the cutoff than a sealed so ive decided im going ported

Next week I'm getting install, Infinity 6x8's in the front (componets with external tweeters)Infinity 6x9s in the back, 2 Fi Q 15's, in a sealed box @ 5.2 Cubes The roof will be dynamated the Doors are gonna be dynamated and a 7 band Eq somewhere either in the glove box or console, Anyway Anyone have these Infinitys? I have 7 infinitys in my barracks My question is They will be powered off a cheap sony amp tell my Soundstream TRX 4.420 gets in. If I have the Soundstream's gain turned down will I have any clipping, the componets are references rated at 90 watts rms @ 2 ohms the amp puts out supposedly 105 watts rms the 6x9s are rated at 110 watts rms I just dont want any distortion also with a 7 band what will I set my head unit eq to -6 bass and treble or 0?7 Band is a Soundstream parametric, deck is a Clarion w/2 volt preouts

I have a Q it dont have an option for universal and i have the JBL which is rated at 1500 at 2 ohms im thinking of gettin a second one and running one each sub at 2 ohms

what was it powered off of?

its a JBL GTO 14001 I take it the BP power will handle 1500 rms in a large 4 cubic feet box? my subs are dual 1's so w/ 1 the only option is 2 ohms and 2 the only option is 4 ohms

Sorry to keep beating on the dead horse here but One last time I want to get everyones opinion here box time is Friday so 1 15" Q in a 4 cube Box Ported @ 32 hz with 64 Sq Inches of Port Area vs 2 15's Sealed in a 5.2 Cube Box 1 15 Q would be Recieving 1500 Watts of power @ 2 ohms 2 15 Q's would be Recieving 1200 watts @ 4 ohms They Both have BP Power can 1 15 Q handle 1500 Rms daily in a Large Ported Box? I just want to get some more opinions and I'll make my decision and leave you guys alone Which will be louder?I'm thinking about going sealed cause it will sound significantly cleaner and I wont be pushing the Subs to the limit or the amp to the limiti that way Also another question does the amp still draw the same power in a 4 ohm load as it does in a 2 ohm load? Let me rephrase that does it tax the electrical system the same regardless of the impedance it runs at?

I already got 2 15" Q's dual one ohm, This is going into a Mustang which is replacing the back seat yea thats what I was thinking the installer was trying to talk me into doing a wall but I dont really want to do a wall, maybe I should just go sealed 5.6 was including woofer displacement port volume not factoring in bracing, So I think Sealed it is I should be able to easily do 5.2 sealed after displacement bracing etc

alright im still debating on what kind of box to get and the installer is saying that if he goes with 4 cubes after the port with a huge port so its like 5.6 with the port that it will still be way louder than a sealed box true of false (w/2 15s)

so it would be 22 x 22= x multiply by pie? My bad thats the cone diameter radius is half the diameter?

How will it compare to the IA Death Penalty 21 The 22" BL that is? How does 1 22 have more cone area than 2 15s? what is the formula to figure that out?

Next year im planning on gettin an expedetion and either one of these amps or a 3500 (probally the 3500) my question is, what kind of electrical upgrades do you need (how many amp altenator) and what kind of battery/ batterys for the cheapest setup to power it, (also is this thing capable of powering 4 15" ssds?

What kind of Parametric EQ do you guy's recommend? I have a clarion deck, it only has 2 volt pre-outs but its loaded with options such as you can rip someones cd directly on the deck, SD card mp3s, Ipod etc etc. Anyway it only has Bass and Treble for EQ therefore I want to either get a Parametric EQ or maybe one of those high speed 30 band eq's with the clipping light on each band, What kind do you guys recommend? money is a concern and its gotta be black Also where should the eq on my deck be set at when i get one 0 for bass and treble or -6 for bass and treble? I would also like it to be a min of 7 bands

Also my deck doesn't have a sub output so if there is one that can take front and rear rca inputs and have a front rear and sub rca output that would be nice

how do you think this would sound compared to 2 15s?

I have a question actually with these two subs, i have two infinity 6x9s (not hooked up yet) and im looking at gettin a set of infinity componets i want lyrics to be really loud and bass not to totally overpower it so im thinking about having a custom door panel done what am i looking at to get everything to sound loud without treble bass or midrange overpowering 3 sets of componets 2 sets of componets? my 4 channel is a soundstream tarantula that "puts out" 105 rms x 4 at 2 ohms which is what the infinity speakers impedence is

yea i think im gonna go sealed though first off Im gonna wait for a while and sound deaded the car =( subs will be here monday

So I take it this is a ported only sub?

155 in my 04 Mustang Gt let off the throttle 14.7 @94mph in the 1320 (yea i know its slow)

So how does the 21 sound? is it pretty much strictly for SPL or does it have decent sound quality or? what's the recommended enclosure for it?

One more question (i already got 2 15s on order) how would 1 15 ported @ 4 cubes @ 32 hz sound vs 2 15s sealed at 5.2 cubes subs have bp power amp would push the 1 to 1500 watts at 2 ohm or the 2 to 1200 watts @ 4 ohms (1500 watts sound's like its pushing it) anyway the 2 would have more output sealed I would imagine right or no?

I'm only pushing 1200 watts rms @ 4 ohms by the way, amp is a JBL GTO 14001

Yea basically 6 cubic feet is about as big as i can get without sacrificing my trunk we are talking about where the backseat of a mustang used to be but what i was thinking was having external ports like holes on the side so i can get the full 6 cubes what's the most rms power recommended for daily driving?
