Gold Member Username: SubfanaticWalton, Ky Post Number: 2786 Registered: Dec-04 | haha u can do that, but what subs are you running, model numbers sizes, years if u can please, also what size box is it, if there are2 subs, are they in seperate chambers or ONE BIG BOX with no divider in it, how many cubic feet per chamber or how many for the whole box, then i can helop you |
|
SLM89 Unregistered guest | i dono that stuff bout the box, but will 2 12" infinitys (1230W) be better in a ported box or not |

Gold Member Username: James1115Wilton, Ct Post Number: 2510 Registered: Dec-04 | if its built to specs they will sound good in both, I cant tell you which will be better its all prefference. I preffer sealed over ported but thats me. |

Gold Member Username: James1115Wilton, Ct Post Number: 2527 Registered: Dec-04 | whats the model # on that amp? I will explain how you figure out ohms in a minute afer I look up your amp. |
|
SLM89 Unregistered guest | i cant find a model number for that amp... all the sites i go to say the info is not available. Im getting a whole package.. 2 infinity 1230w's, that Infinity 300W mono class d amp and a box for $500. i type that amp in on google (Infinity 300W mono class d amplifier) and i get nothing. |

Gold Member Username: James1115Wilton, Ct Post Number: 2529 Registered: Dec-04 | ok its prob the REF311A that amp ok and your subs are dual 4ohm voice coil. With that VC configuration and that amp you have 1 option to run those subs, parellel - series at 4ohms. Now the problem with that is you will only recieve about 60watts per sub. I would return one of them if you can and run one of them, wire it down to 2ohms using parellel-parellel wiring and get the full 300 watts to 1 sub it will sound much better then the two subs trust me. here is how to wire up your sub to that amp. http://jlaudio.com/tutorials/wiring/index.html#1dvcs |

SLM89 Unregistered guest | hey hey people.. if those Infinitys are good for sq, if i port a box for them, wont they still sound alright but still be louder? |
|
Gold Member Username: SubfanaticWalton, Ky Post Number: 2899 Registered: Dec-04 | they will sound alright, but if u want teh best of what those subs are built for a nice tune in a box can be good, but id stick with sealed lol |
|
SLM89 Unregistered guest | so with those subs, they will be louder in a sealed box than in a ported box, or just have better sq? |
|
SLM89 Unregistered guest | and wait..... ^^^ James said those subs are dual 4ohm voice coil, but i dont think they are |
|
Gold Member Username: SubfanaticWalton, Ky Post Number: 2901 Registered: Dec-04 | sq=sealed most of the time, spl=ported |
|
SLM89 Unregistered guest | the infinity 1230's are svc and the 1232's are dvc so tell me if this sounds right... two infinity 1230's and a infinity REF311A = The 1230's are svc - 4 Ohm Subwoofers: 2 Ohms (2 ohm load wired in parallel) that amp puts out 347 watts at 2 ohms, which is good, right? |
|
SLM89 Unregistered guest | by the way, i want spl, but those subs are good enough to have pretty good sq and also have good spl if ported, right? |
|
Gold Member Username: SubfanaticWalton, Ky Post Number: 2903 Registered: Dec-04 | if u want spl port it to like 35 hrtz and that will keep SOME sq lol |
|
SLM89 Unregistered guest | ok, thanks. was i right about the 1230's being svc and how to wire them? |
|
Gold Member Username: SubfanaticWalton, Ky Post Number: 2904 Registered: Dec-04 | i dont know if ur right,i dont know and not in the mood to loook lol |
|
SLM89 Unregistered guest | n e 1 else not a lazy ass that can help me with this? lol |
