My Setup:
Car:
Civic 2000 Hatchback
Subs x2:
Amazon.com : Kicker 10CVR154 15 CompVR 4 Ohm DVC Subwoofer : Vehicle Subwoofers : Car Electronics
2x 5CuFoot boxes tuned at 28Hz
146.5dB IASCA bassboxing score
The Amp:
Precision Power PPI BK1800.1D Black Ice 1800W Monoblock Class-D Amplifier
Mounted on Wall Behind:
Amazon.com : Kicker DS65 6.5" Coax Speakers (Pair) : Vehicle Speakers : Car Electronics
Rockford Fosgate POWER T165 6.5" T1 Coaxial Car Speakers
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002DNZQG/
Amazon.com : Dual XPE2700 400-Watt Max 2-Channel MOSFET XPE Series Power Amplifier : Vehicle Multi Channel Amplifiers : Car Electronics
Amazon.com : Rockford Fosgate PBR300X4 Punch BRT 300-Watt Ultra Compact 4-Channel Amplifier : Vehicle Multi Channel Amplifiers : Car Electronics
Amazon.com : Soundstream BX-20Z Digital Bass Reconstruction Processor : Vehicle Equalizers : Car Electronics
3F capacitor : 2x 1,000W XS Power Batteries : Stock 90A alternator : Big three upgrade : Full Dynomat : 0G Wiring
I'm constantly beating at those kickers and smelling them every time I give demos because it's just not enough for me. I've been abusing them for about a year now, I don't know how they're still alive, but they're sure to go soon. I was looking for an upgrade without scrapping the monster of a box I put together.
What do you guys recommend as to get the most out of my amplifiers while not scrapping the box?
It needs to be at 1Ohm when both 15s are wired
Budget $200-$500 per sub
Wanting a good balance between SPL and SQ, not favoring an extreme of either
Box Specs:
2x 15" holes
5.5Cu Ft per box
2x 4" diameter 12 3/4" long ports per box
I was going to do a bandpass box but ran out of wood. Thus the sides coming up like that.
Ignore how uneven the ports are. They are all the same length and diameter. Just wiggled themselves in differently with time because I was too lazy to glue them so I raw force hammered them in.
I know this is a lot, but any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
