Flipping the box

First topic message reminder :

In my truck my subs and port both face the back of the seat. The ports are below the subs, I was thinking if I flipped it around and had teh ports facing up^^ against the back wall it might get louder.

Thoughts?

Maybe yours being a 4dr helps a bit. Wall not as close as those chevys

No matter wat tuning I've done mine always 43 or 44hz. Only time it changed was when I took back seat out rose 4hz

But 30, 32, 35, and 40 with backseat in all was 43 or 44hz

My wall is not right up on the b pillar because it was louder the further I moved it back!!! Plus it makes sitting in the seat more comfortable :-)

Smaller boxes tend to get louder. The nightshade 12s I will be running with a 3k amp on each will only be 2 cubes per 12. So a 12 cube box/wall thing. Not much at all.

2 cubes a 12 is a little small but with that much power each it will work perfect probably. Smaller boxes are not always louder. It depends on the sub and the note. ;-)

I'm ordering 2 nightshade 12s Monday , gonna put them in 1.75 per sub and with a 40.1 @ .5 ohm
2cu might be too big for 3000 watts a sub, did you ask Jacob about it, what he said?

I'd wait for his next sub NS-X, higher rating, unless you're gettin the NS's modded prior to shipping.

Ill let ya know how mine work for me when I get em. Badass sub for sure though

All that information is G-14 classified

LOL Tub...when you think this project will be done??

Tottaly complete for scrapin next year but I should be up and competing as soon as january

Cool good luck on that 160 street beat

POOF!!!!!!!!!!!!

haha what's that supposed to mean?

They want pics of it!!! I wanna sit in that hoe, the DAY it's done.

I better get to help with the build.... better me then others..

No names.

Don't bring up the L7's that night either

Up in Smoke Tour , starring Tub Asko

Haha, jk, but it will prolly smell bad after a SB run

Those amps do rated power at 10v, monsters for daily

A few blown nightshades never hurt anybody

I'm going to start off running 3k per pair. They should do fine with that. Then when I get the other amps in I'll try em out with a 3k per sub. I'm sure things will start to get iffy and if I see major problems I'll get some modifications done. Although I know A LOT about the NSX . . . . it is very tempting to just get that and skip the regulars.

Buy the best first Tub trust me...I wish I would have gotten the 9518 composite cone subs like I was going to in the first place. Still may get them if need be.

I'll take some 9515"s......

The NSX . . . may just render the 95 series obsolete lol

when spl time comes around 6 nightshade 3000s wired at .25 ohm . . . . Dung Pile may get nasty lol

andrews box has a port plug for 33hzs and with it removed its tuned to 45 but still peaks at 55hzs, i dont think he's tried it with the plug in.

Tub there are alot of loud reg. motor subs out....its all about who you want to use and who you like. Wait till the 95Z series are released!!!

With me . . . I'll run who supports me. Right now that is sundown and dc. So my subs are either going to be nightshades or lvl 5s. Even if I get DDs at a good price, I help out those that help me out and that's sundown, dc, and kinetik.

Exactly. That is the best thing to do go with who supports you...I have ran DD for like 5 or 6 years now and they have done nothing but support me and help me out. Everybody has their own opinion about what they like and who they like. Not always about price but it helps.

DD sucks.

I win

LOL Skip you suck

Ok, i'ma thread jack my own thread..... WOW lol


How should I build new box? I been told Subs up, port sides would sound good and get loud.

Subs forward port up

Just gotta test Drew....

I know.

If I had access to a mic it would be alot easier. =(

In a trunk?

You have a Lincoln huh?, Fing huge trunk. I'd normall say subs forward port side but idk about in that trunk.
Just try random stuff, you have 2 15s?, try one facing each side and port back
