Hi, I have a 01 Sentra and I'm planning a system with the following. I'd like some pointers before I start purchasing equipment so I don't waste time or money.
3 Sundown U series 10' 1500 RMS per
Ported box 32hz 1.2 cube net per speaker
1 Taramps Bass 5k
4 Hertz CX 165 2 way speakers 70 RMS per
1 Taramps 440/4 channel, 69 watts RMS channel
4 Hertz Cento tweeters
1 Taramps 400/4 channel, 60 watts RMS per channel
1 Clarion EQS 755 7 band 1/2 din equalizer
Alpine head unit undecided on which is best
Not sure what a DSP does but do I need one?
For power I'm planning to use:
The largest AGM I can fit in the battery well under the hood
270 amp custom alternator
1 Limitless Lithium 6k
Not sure what's a good brand of isolator to use but do I need one?
Battery compartment is 11" x 7" x 8.25" height. Looking at the XS Power D3400 for under the hood.
Trunk is 40" x 28" x 20" height
Trunk opening will fit a box 33" width and 17.25" height.
Using an online box size calculator I Arrived at the following dimensions:
Box External Dimensions
Width × Height × Depth32.00" × 15.00" × 21.86"
Material Thickness0.75"
Net Internal Volume3.60 ft3
Tuning Frequency32 Hz
Port Area42.00 inch2
Port Inlet Width × Height3.11" × 13.50"
Port Length22.79"
My questions are:
1 Is this sufficient power?
2 What gauge wire and how many runs from front to back?
3 What's a good isolator and do I even need one?
4 Any additional things I may have missed.
This is my first attempt at a serious build. If like to use for daily driver (I like loud bass pressure) as well as to to show at audio competitions. Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Lewis King
