How much room I need to leave in front of a port ?
Notorious97200 replied to Notorious97200's topic in SPL & SQ / Fabrication
The slot flared port is another idea. I'll think about it. But I can adjust the round ports easier. -

Notorious97200 replied to Notorious97200's topic in SPL & SQ / Fabrication
Port length is 8". But I am talking about the space in front of the port IN the box. Box is 16" tall. 3/4" mdf So : 14.5 - 8 = 5.5" in front of the port(the air entry) in the box. Is that enough ? If not, I will have to use an elbow. Port is firing up. No problem, there is room. -
My bad, 2 1200s would be enough. But if you have the money, get the 2 1500s. I understand why you want to strapp 2 amps !
-
I think both would suffice you, but if you have the money, why not get the bigger one ? You already had a 3k amp, I guess your electrical can handle that power.

very nice car Congratulations !!!

I have a great deal on a used DD 9515 : what do you think ?
Notorious97200 replied to Notorious97200's topic in Subwoofers / Speakers
I hope DD will be ok to send a recone kit or 2 to me. On their FB page they told me to ask their Trinidadian dealer. But Trinidad is another country, another island. they don't even use US $ ! do you know if they send recone kits to customers ? I will have to make some dealer get them for me. But I don't know any, yet -
I love this forum because of the mods ! They have great knowledge and are very helpfull. I am on other forums too, but no one is as good as this ssa forum. This is the only forum I agree to pay for. Do what you want, but you need to accept some things, to learn and progress. Have a nice day

using EQ to modify the fs curve of my sub (winisd)
Notorious97200 replied to ncc74656's topic in Subwoofers / Speakers
Let the bass play for some times. Then you'll know what you need to do...or not ! If it's not broke, why fix it ? -
Got the DD9515. Seems good, coils read 2.something, cone move easy, and coil looks in good shape. Now it's time for a box...that will not be easy !
-
I don't know how to find a DD recone kit. I emailed them at DD, I hope they will be ok to send me one.
On their FB page they want me to go to another country to buy one !!!

You listen to very good music. True reggae old school ! I love that You'd better run one sub ported. You will be so happy. Those reggae tunes does not have a lot of bass but NEED a lot to...blow your mind ! Ported would be a great choice. Believe me ! I'm a real Caribbean reggae fan.

people on another forum saying my box is a problem?
Notorious97200 replied to b0r's topic in Fi Technical
Nothing seems wrong in your install, except that you don't have an amp on your mids & highs speakers ! Good siize box, good tuning frequency, good settings, quality equipment. Amp is hot : ok, no problem, it's working. Let it play...After some times you'll notice it become louder and lower. As long as you're happy with the output, nothing to worry about. -
Are there any amps that warranty at .5 ohms besides crescendo?
Notorious97200 replied to pmureika's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
At this time, the amps were 2 Ohms stable...only -
You can tell what kind of system you had in your car. How do people know if it will make you happy ? Need to know where you're coming from You're in good hands, as I can see.

Notorious97200 replied to pmureika's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
I totally agree ! those btl's are sooo loud on this Mmats amp ! But I don't understand why people want to use amps at 0.5 Ohm for daily. Get another amp to play at 2 Ohms, or link 2 smaller amps to achieve a 2 Ohms load. It will be cheaper : less electrical upgrades, les batts to buy, cleaner signal,... More power is not the best or easier way to get louder. I learnt that from my own experience. I gained 4 dbs by changing enclosure. Doubling power was not as effective. So, I took back my original amp, sold the big one, and I 'm wayyyy louder now !!! How are you, bro ?! I need to come back to SXM soon ! I'll let you know ! -
Joyeux anniversaire ! HBD

My box builder would kill me if I sell the sub to someone else !!!! He wants a second N2 for so long : he's already looking for recone price ! He will come to my house later because he did not see the basket price ! I'm the one who speak English and got the Mastercard ! No trade sorry ! -

Notorious97200 replied to Notorious97200's topic in Subwoofers / Speakers
I think the most space I can use is 3.5 ft3 net volume, maybe a little more if I can save some , with PVC round ports. -

How much net volume is needed for that sub ? Their website says 2.75-3 ft3 net. but I know it may be marketing. All the 15" I've seen need at least 3 ft3 minimum. and I know they will not perform too well in such small volume. I was pleased with an Xcon 15 in that space. Honnestly, I've heared some Xcon in bigger volume, and they were sounding much better : louder on all frequencies, and lower. But I do what I can ! I tried a 12", in 2 custom boxes, and I want more now. -

Yeah I will definitely pick it up ! If I don't like it, I will sell it at a higher price ! -

I know the Zcon is what I need ! But + $700 + taxes ...that is a lot of money, and a few weeks (or months) to receive it. The DD is local, and costs around $300. I know it is a very good sub for burps. It is for sure, less musical than a Zcon ! -

Notorious97200 replied to Notorious97200's topic in Subwoofers / Speakers
recone + basket + shipping would not be cheaper than the price of this DD sub. There are no more N2 available and my good friend wants a second one for so long ! He will have to recone it himself to a 15" ! If I sell my btl, I will receive money for the DD AND enough to have a new box and some money left ! It's a really good dealBut I want it to sound good, to be loud enough when I compare to a btl, and to go low enough. I saw a lot of people saying the 9515 do not like to go low. That scares me a bit -

Notorious97200 replied to Notorious97200's topic in Subwoofers / Speakers
I did the maths : one 6" has more surface than two 4" ! But I don't know what's better for this sub. I'll take a look on a DD forum somewhere. -

Notorious97200 replied to Notorious97200's topic in Subwoofers / Speakers
It will be for music, but I need output ! For sure 2.75 seems too small for a 15", but they say it can work ! No way. 3 ft3 is still small for such a powerful 15" IMO. I will try the biggest box I can fit. If I must use aeroports to save some space, I will ! BTW what would be "good" for music ? One 6" round PVC port (flared) or two 4" ? Waiting on other opinions.
