yea i didnt think it could b the tune bc even a tune at 35 hz wouldnt sound bad. what program do u use for ur calculations?

I hope you mean highpass (subsonic) at 29 hz and lowpass at 80 hz. yea thats what i meant. and ik the box needs to have the sub subtracted, but the re program doesnt have that input so i made the box on the bigger side to bring it to about 1.3 cubes after sub and port, and the sub just doesnt perform well all around. i put the sub facing up and it still sounds like crap but a little better, what im thinking is that maybe the plywood i used was crappy so its flexing...would that be a possibility? square port area says 21...im guessing inches, and the total port length is 31.

im thinkin maybe i should build another box...i really think it has to be the box, bc the other box i had it in sounded alright, just had the port firing towards the side and didnt hit the lows, i figured if i tuned it to 33 hz where its supposed to be, and fired the port to the back that i would sound better.

low pass filter is set at about 29 hz, the high pass filter is set at 80. bass boost off bass eq all the way down, and i havnt set the gains yet, but its probably around 900 watts. the amp is a hifonics 1610d.

idk it kinda sounds dull, not very loud, almost like its blown, but i gently pushed in on the cone and there was no scratching or anything, so i dont think its blown. it sounds like there is a pretty good sized leak in the box, but i felt all around and no air coming out anywhere but the port.

i would leave it as an option, so if somebody wants to have an inverted sub application, it will look a little better.

hey, im thinking about building a pretty loud setup with just 1 bl 10. its gonna be for competition use only, just for the hell of it lol. its already in a good daily box...but i kinda want to build a burp box since i have 3/4 of a sheet of mdf laying around...im just kinda lost at what to tune it to. ik im supposed to tune high, but how high? i have no idea of what my car peaks at tho, since i dont have anybody around here that uses a termlab. i am using a hifonics 1610d and will b running at 2 ohms on it so about 1200 watts is what the amp puts out. it will be a box for competitions only, so if anybody has any ideaso of what to tune it to that would be great. also, its going into a 2003 ford focus zx3. thanx alot.

the remote wire is hooked up to the power antenna wire on the indash...i have done this before, so when the radio is on it sends the signal to ur amp but when the cd player is on there is no signal being sent, bc the antenna isnt being used.

yea thats the only reason i use it...i just use it to fine tune best positions and stuff like that.

lol yea my 18" fi q was only reading a 129.5 on that stupid thing...but its all i can afford lol

alright thank you.

hey guys, i might be getting a nightshade here really soon, and i have been looking all over the forum and google to find recommended enclosure specs for it. any help would b great.

i got the "boom stick" from walmart lol, but im guessing its not very accurate...but nobody around here uses a termlab bc everyone around here sucks ass...i probably just try to see which frequency gets the best peak on my little baby meter.

well i figured they get alot of emails so they didnt need one from me when there are people on this forum that probably kno. and i found a guy selling some at a reasonable price.

lol thats pretty funny.

what kind of car are these in?

alright, i will just try using pvc till i find the right tuning. thanx guys.

ok. where would be a good tuning to start?

are the subs moving and there is no sound or are the subs just not moving?

by max volume do u mean max recommended or max for my trunk? and how would i go about making and adjustable port?

pt loser...

when i still had my bl 10 we fit it behind the seat of my friends fullsize standard cab chevy, and it was a tight fit but it sounded great. i dont remember the specs tho...but ik it worked out great.

o ok thats a good idea, thanx man.

hey guys, i was looking for the recommended enclosure size for the eclipse sw9122, and i cant find them anywhere, my specs of my trunk are 35" wide, 20" deep and 22" tall...but that is way to big for this 12 i would think. i have been searching google and bing for about 2 hrs and all i can find is what other people have used. any help would b great. thanx.
