Well surprisingly the 8's take a darn huge ass box. My last one was 2.6 net I believe the Alpines and the Skars would take the same size box, of the 2 which do you think would be better output? The Skars are smaller but have a further excursion than the Alpines.

Biggest reason for me is I need to get all the sound in the cabin and none in the trunk. I have 2 compressors in my trunk (air ride) and my current setup they are loud as fuk in the car. My goals are to build a 4th, port into the cabin through the factory cutout int he deck, seal that off...

These are the results for the drivers I have Skar ZVX 8's = 33 Alpine 10 Type-r = 52 JL 10w3 = 60 So what would you run? What I would like is the driver that would use the least amount of space. can anyone tell me between the Skar and the Alpines which would work best in a smaller box? I...

Well very interesting. I put the Skar's in the calculator just for the heck of it and they come out with a EPB of 33 Now I know on this board (and every other board) you all hate Skars. However I have been running them since they came out in 2010 or so and have had nothing but good results...

Thank you for teaching me that. Plugging in both the Jl and Alpine specs gives me EBP of over 60 on both of them So now I am at a loss. This is also weird as JL seems to really recommend this driver in a sealer box, I currently and running them in a seal box and am rather unhappy with the...

8 gauge more than fine Yes I would run a dash mounted sub adjuster, I like the generic RCA ones on ebay, used them for many many installs

Sorry man but that is beyond my understanding. Could you explain it to me or perhaps tell me if the Alpines would work good as I think they are the best match for what I am looking for.

I want to build a 4th for my Lexus GS300 and port through the 9" hole in the rear deck that the factory sub used to be mounted in. I have a max of 5 cubes gross to work with. It would be nice to use some subs I currently own. I also have read that you want the subs as far from the port as...

Yes I am using a plate amp, I ordered 2 of those Parts Express Subs, will make a box from some MDF.

the low power is due to this being in a shop not a car, sadly 120 volt power is still very expensive.

Me and my buddy are messing around and trying to make the best cheap ass bass. Working with about 100 watts What sub would work best? Blaupunkt?  Box is 2 cube tuned to 36

I have been running 2K for a couple of years and am ready to step up to the next level. Have a F350, 300 amp alt, 2 batteries, 2 runs of 1/0 I will be running under 1 ohm as I have 3 - 4 ohm DVC subs My buddy recommends the Wolfram but it is on backorder for a while. What other amps do you...

Just got a new to me F350 Crew Cab. Currently running 2 Skar ZVX 8's on 2k watts in a small truck. This 350 is WAY bigger but I do not have a lot of power to play with as I need to keep it under 200 amps so 2k watts. i have the room for a pair of 12's as I am ditching one of the rear seats...

so 8's facing forward firing into the front seat, how much room between the subs and seat? Port firing towards door, how far away should port be from door? 2-8's on around 1,200 watts, is that enough? They can handle 2k but I don't have the correct ohm load.

I just picked up a pair of these. They are dual 2 ohms so I will have to run them at 2 ohms on my RP 2000.1 I am putting them in my Ford Sport Trac My rear seat folds down into a flat platform. It is a 2/3 split. I want to remove the larger side and build a box, this will allow me to put...
