Ideas for the Avalanche...

Canaan Gold Member Username: Southernrebel Monroe, Louisiana Team Audible... Post Number: 7279 Registered: Mar-04	Posted on Tuesday, February 17, 2009 - 03:29 GMT I'm running 3 DD3515's right now in a my Silverado, but I'm getting rid of that truck. Hope to have the Avalanche within the next 2 weeks. My Z2Hv is going in the demo van, so I will have to get a new amp or amps. I have decided on one of 2 options. A) Sell my 3515's, get 2 9518's w/ Platinum caps, and build this: B)Keep the 3515's and build this: Both boxes are roughly the same size, and every wall but the floor is doubled. Both tune to ~37hz on paper. I would run roughly the same power with either setup. So, what would you do?

Canaan Gold Member Username: Southernrebel Monroe, Louisiana Team Audible... Post Number: 7280 Registered: Mar-04	Posted on Tuesday, February 17, 2009 - 04:50 GMT I'm leaning to keeping the 35's. Looking at a DD M4 for daily, maybe a pair. I'm pulling all my 1/0 and and batts out to stick in the new truck.

jeremy m Silver Member Username: Shade Moxee, Wa U.S. Post Number: 832 Registered: Nov-06	Posted on Tuesday, February 17, 2009 - 19:12 GMT u should talk to supergumby on ca.com....obviously he ran two 18's and then now 4 15's.
M.S. Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18 Philadelphia, PA Post Number: 9806 Registered: Jul-06	Posted on Tuesday, February 17, 2009 - 20:24 GMT LOL at people saying to use the 18s. The 3 15" setup has much more potential. Not only does it have more cone area which wins almost every time. Also more excursion since you've got 3 motors vs 2. But I'm sure canaan is well aware.

lOwLiFe Gold Member Username: Loc_out Team RE XXX Post Number: 2730 Registered: Feb-05	Posted on Tuesday, February 17, 2009 - 23:41 GMT Yep been thinking of it for a while now. The only problem is finding an amp to run them. I say you go with 3 15's.
M.S. Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18 Philadelphia, PA Post Number: 9816 Registered: Jul-06	Posted on Tuesday, February 17, 2009 - 23:45 GMT Not really... there are strong amps that can do 0.7 ohm daily.... or get a little bigger amp and run at 1.3
