Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 4486 Registered: Dec-05 | hey guys, i'm creating this post to see what do you guys think about my next setup. Could you please tell how many Dbs this thing can reach?According to power, box and charging system.I know it's an idea cuz you really can't tell.... 1-1200w rms amp at 1 ohm 2- Two pioneer TS 306 DVC (800w rms) 12 inches 3-Ported box tuned to 33 Hz 4 cuFt probably. 4- 130A alternator 5- 4AWG possibly upgrading to 2 AWG 6- Yellow top coming soon. My goal is to reach at least 130Dbs or more. Do you guys think i can reach at least 130 Dbs. Doesn't matter if it's bassrace or burps. thanks and please post a number. |

Silver Member Username: Sinful_systems7015 INCH WANG... Post Number: 780 Registered: Nov-06 | Upgrade to (2)Pioneer Premier TS-W3004SPL and you will be more than happy. Into the 140's. Maybe upgrade amp to 1500 watt and that will do. JMO |
Silver Member Username: Sinful_systems7015 INCH WANG... Post Number: 781 Registered: Nov-06 | I have (2) TS-W3004SPL's in a ported 3.38 cu. ft. enclusure (subs and port facing back) running off a (single) Hifonics BX1500D at 1 ohm and hit 144 SPL on an EPIC-160 SPL meter (at center council under the dash). |
Gold Member Username: CarguyPost Number: 6161 Registered: Nov-04 | Just curious, if all you want is SPL, why is the port tuned to 33Hz? You should find out what frequency sounds the loudest in your truck. Then tune it to that and you'll have max SPL. If you have test tones, do one ranging from 300Hz to 20Hz. You'll be surprised with the result. |

Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana DD 9515d~~]... Post Number: 4847 Registered: Mar-04 | I havnt done a side-by-side comparison, but our shop carries PG and the RDs's are nothing short of amazing! We price them at $159 and I actually like the better than the JL w6v2 (flame me, go on, i dare you ) The 12's are an amazing <$200 sub. (But the 10's could prolly benefit from alil stiffer suspension) Those lil RSd's will sneek up on you...i love em |

Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 4492 Registered: Dec-05 | Isaac, i wanna hit those numbers cuz is a simple goal and i don't need to sacrifice SQ. I know is easy to tune it higher and i'll get more Dbs. But this is a daily installation. Something to hear all kind of music. I just want to be decently loud (130Dbs range) and play with good Sq with a low budget lol! |

Gold Member Username: OlegSanta Monica, CA USA Post Number: 1002 Registered: Nov-04 | 34Hz sounds pretty damn good. Just curious, why did you go with pioneer subs? |
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 4501 Registered: Dec-05 | i got a deal. They're not bad IMO, for the price you can't go wrong. |
Gold Member Username: OlegSanta Monica, CA USA Post Number: 1004 Registered: Nov-04 | That shoud be a decent sounding setup for daily driving. My friend has a similar one with stock alt and battery with 600W and 2 CVRs. Great SQ and gets plenty loud. Yours should be a bit louder with a port and more power. |
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 4505 Registered: Dec-05 | i'm going to use two 3" round ports. I think i'll have to change volume cuz my trunk is small, but after some numbers let's see how i can deal with it. My alt is not going to be stock, cuz my stock alt is 80A and i'll change it for 130A one. Thanks |
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 4509 Registered: Dec-05 | other opinion? |
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 4518 Registered: Dec-05 | any opinion about round ports vs rectangular ports. I think rounds are easier and sound better..? |
Gold Member Username: OlegSanta Monica, CA USA Post Number: 1056 Registered: Nov-04 | Are you building the box yourself? |
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 4520 Registered: Dec-05 | a friend. He knows more about car audio than me and he's a civil engineer. He's a great box builder so i trust him more than myself. He's member of caraudioforum.com |
Platinum Member Username: RovinMy 1 12 Atom... Post Number: 11346 Registered: Jul-05 | 2 separate boxes ??? i would suggest u do (2) 3' aero ports instead in each chamber & put each sub in a 2.25cuft after displacement ....come back & thank me for dem loooooows u will be getting ....... |
Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 4521 Registered: Dec-05 | Rovin. Is one box for two subs. Space is an issue, because civic s.cks as5. Post a suggestion with one box for two subs. |
Platinum Member Username: RovinMy 1 12 Atom... Post Number: 11347 Registered: Jul-05 | O I C now well if space sux then do 2cuft\ sub after displacement i would say use (4) 3" aeros would still get loud with decent SQ since (4) 4" may be too much IMO & (3) 4" aeros would look kinda weird u can also tune 34hz if u want since when u set ur SS filter to 33hz or so u will still get good lows ...... |
Gold Member Username: Safe_crackerChicago, IL US Post Number: 2679 Registered: Jan-06 | I would use two 4" aeros maybe one 6" or 8" aero, efficiency numbers would go up. Polo.. |
