Except the Dayton is only a DSP. Which would then require me to buy amps and most likely new speakers as well would it not? The Audison piece is a 9-10ch DSP + 8ch amplifier in one box and could theoretically process the entire system and send back more power to all the speakers in the system...

Hey guys, I have a 2015 Chevy Malibu LTZ with the 9 speaker premium Pioneer audio system and I'm curious what the best/cheapest route is for me to be able to A: Keep the factory head unit B: Upgrade the power/add subs to the system. C: Bypass and reconfigure the processing of the system Do...

Recently changed vehicles and got a 2015 Malibu LTZ with the premium 9-speaker sound system. Sounds fairly good on it's own but wanting to add some more bass to it. I currently have 2 10" Focal 10L6411 woofers sealed that I was running in my previous system that I could re-purpose for a while...

Made one other design that I think might actually be even better for my application (SQL). Just need to know which one would be best. I would maybe like to get to work on this box by this weekend if I can nail down the perfect design.

Hey guys, Been racking my brain over this for weeks and need some professional feedback on the new design I'm thinking of for my 12" Fi Q. The first pic is the box it's in now, and the 2nd one is the design I'm thinking of building. But I need to know approx how this box would sound? Do I have...

I tweaked the design and this (i think) is going to be my final design. It's almost identical to my current box but the port area and net volumes are very different and should make it a very noticeable difference.

Oh mine goes low, but it sounds like *** going into the subsonic range because the port isn't allowing the sub to breath. The extra port area should allow for a better low end extension in the low 30's.

Well considering my current box is 27hz with 25 total square inches of port and this one is gonna be 33hz with 40sq inches....I think I'll be safe hahah

It doesn't actually seem much different from the box it's in now but the port is 1" wider and has 7 more square inches of port vs the box it's in now. According to Torres the current box is 2.8cuft net tuned to 26-27hz with only 9sq inches of port per foot (gross) lol. So this new one should...

K after toying around with it a bit I think I might have found the optimum box, minus the 101ft/s port velocity winISD is reporting me. But by shrinking the port from 3.5" wide to 2.75 and shortening the port to 34" from 44" I end up with exactly 16 square inches of port per foot and approx. 40...

I can shrink the width of the port but that's just gonna up the port velocity alot.

Well then I'm not sure how to get this box to a 32hz tuning while keeping the port area per foot down below 16 and the port velocity numbers under 100ft/s

Wait a tick....When manufacturers give you a recommended box size...Are they quoting that as NET volume after all displacements? or Gross volume?

Well I'm running a T2500-1BDCP at 4ohms currently with a birthsheet saying 2200W @4ohms. So I'm putting in 1500W in the signal section. Pretty sure it's pushing 1500W since it's the constant power version of the amp. I'm trying to tweak it a bit in Torres but I'm not able to get it below 17-19sq...

It seemed a little excessive to me too but that was the only way I could get a 33hz tuning while keeping port velocity around 80ft/s, which is still a little on the high side I think.
