3 10" subwoofer build, which subs

Recommended Posts

ok so im starting to think that i should move up into class street b, just because there is more competition aorund here for that and im sick of not competing against anyone (that is except like a single 12" type r), so right now i have 1 12" fi audio bl in the trunk of a cavalier, tuned to 34 hz on 1800 wrms. what i want to do is be very competitive in street b for db drag. however i really want it to be a ground pounder and hit those lows, so i was thinking a 28-30 tune for daily and a 40-42 hz tune for comps. but what i really want to know is which ten inch subs should i go with?

the ones that pop into my head are fi bl, fi q, dc sumthing, or audio que hdc3. i dont know, maybe im missing somthing here. budget isnt a question as this is still in the conceptual stage, but try to keep the subs under 400 a piece. oh and itll be ran off of 1 aq 3500. (or equivelant)

thank you,

3500 wrms, So you could look into the icons, Fi bl, or 4 10" ssd's(that would be cool). There is just so many options.

if i decide to do this i think im going to have to go with the bl's. basically i was just wondering what subs would be the best for gorund pounding the lows and also getting very loud ata round 40-45 hz for comps? is there some subwoofer i havent heard of that will out perform the bl's?

if it was me Id run 2 12s instead of 3 10s I found what worked best in my car was a daily tune since it peaked at 43hz if I fired the subs forward and 40hz if I fired them back it seems to be pretty typical that the cavalier peaks at 43hz

3 10"s just sounds like more fun....

i dont wanna be like half the rest of the people around here and have 2 12" subs, i think 3 tens would shock people and be somthing not too many people do. but i think I AM A stick with my original goal and stay in street a with 1 12" BTL.

I personally dont think 3-10"s would shock people, what really shocks people is high scores put up by small equipment and not that much power or small equipment and alot of power. Whats shocking is someone doing over 150 with 2-10's like Thorshammer on this forum does and now since that is done, I cant wait to see someone start getting high db read outs from some 8" subwoofers (that should be what one wants to gear themselves toward if they just want to shock people). just my .02

ok so maybe it wouldnt shock people on the internet, but here in Minnesota, people are shocked by my single 12, imagine how shocked they would be by 3 10"s on twice the power. but i think ill stick with the BTL Goal like stated....

well thor hit a 151 with his two aq 10 im sure if u had 3 10 it would be ultra crazy and i would get the aluminum if u can afford bc it has better spiders but the coppers are fine. but ya i was also looking into doing two tens aq looks the best for doing so good price reliable and handle some good power but im going to check out some other 10s reply to me on youtube im hardley ever on here
