i have read on the forums that a guy burped an SE 12" on 5k before. but i wouldn't recommend that much

[Adrian_D 520]

SE's are not meant for burping and competing.

SX's and MT's are what you want to get if high numbers are what you are looking for.

You could use 10000w or 100w to blow them. It's all install dependent.

You should start to tell us what do you want the subwoofers for ? Strictly a competition setup ? Or a setup that will play music ?

i wanna strictly a competition setup.

i have a mojo 2k old school, i know isnt alot of power, but i wanna begin with that and then, growing up the sistem.

Strictly competition? You should have picked a different sub.

burping?

[emperorjj1 2]

a pair of ses might be able to take 2k for short periods. sx would be louder thou on the same power and could take more

[Adrian_D 520]

They can take the power. I have seen a pair of se 15's daily on 2000w.

If the Mojo is the generation which looks just like the Viper 2500.1 then you will have a nice bit more over the rated 2000w

damn i bet that would be loud in that hatch... a shop in el paso texas got one of those and did all kinds of engine work to it. supposedly hit 300hp on the dyno

[dbjunior 0]

is it a hatch or is it the sedan with trunk. if its the hatch subs up port to the back 36w 14h 16d port 34.5w 2.5h 10L tuned to 60hz peaks at 63hz should handle the power you have no problem. if you have the trunk car id suggest a similar sized box but port and subs forward sealed off from the trunk.

Looks just like an Opel Corsa.

Subs up, port up (I noticed that works well in those if it is a db-drag style competition), let the port extend out of the box and start with a tuning of 45-50hz. I hope you have acces to a termlab, it will help with testing a lot.

i have notice (by experience) that se's dont do to well after around 60hz..... just a thought...

****As pointed out earlier...

I've burped my SE12 on 5 k in 1.5 cubes with no issues... No burnt coil or anything of the sort... The only issue I had with my woofer was after 4 years of abuse the dust cap came loose underneath the "cover" on the woofer. (this woofer has been burped on, street beaten, it's been used to bench test amps, it's taken every thing I've thrown at it.. still works.. just had it hooked up two days ago )

**I burped it for a whole season on 3.4k in 2.5 cubes with No issues... I played music on it as well at that power... However my SE is an older version '04 so I'm not sure on the new ones.. I've basically done 150db with the single 12 in every vehicle I've put it in.. (on the dash, sealed, termlab mic)..

so depending on how the new woofers are built and what box you have them in.. they can handle the juice.. they should easily do 3k for burps if they're anything like the old ones..

[rushnrun 14]

and for your car...

the rear looks similiar in shape to the older honda civics (my original SPL Machine)

Depending on where/how you're metering there's a couple different combinations that work well if it's as similiar as it looks..

On the dash sealed I always did better with everything facing back... (the civic didn't have much room... 14x14x36 was my external box size and that took up all but 3" of the trunk...) I did 148.8 with the SE12 sub up ports back on 3.4k... never fired the 12 back... only built the one box for the 12 in that car (nobody else was close to my score so it didn't matter much..)

Overall size in the civic (to be legal) was 36x17x15 if accounting for the seats angle the bottom plate could have been 24.. with the top being 17... I knew/still know that car inside and out.. I used it for 4 years straight.. did 151's legal on the dash in a street class with basically 3k and 2 10" woofers.. (diamond audio D5's--not an spl woofer)

sorry for the lengthly post

[orange_soul 0]

thanks alot for the info.

i gonna build 2 box for my car, one with the port in a side (just to try it ) and one with the port up subs up, i gonna make a 6inch ring port sistem, that make me change easy the tune.

my buddy has 4 re se's 10" wired to 2 ohm on 4800 watts clean, 1200 each, tuned 38-40 hz musiclly it does 146 db, they sound soooo clean but not loud enough so i think hes looking into some mt's or xxx's
