Very innovative idea. This sounds a lot like something that would be done in a trunk; because they don't have trunks so people put subs right in the cabin. I think SPLmanny made a custom bench seat that had subs underneath. I know thats not exactly what you want but it is the same idea - take...

I was wondering how do you decide on a box's size when its for SPL only. I am designing the box for a Kicker S12L7. This is for competition purposes only, as I already have a very good daily driver. I mean I already know how to design a box for SQ and SQL - I find this easy because you can...

So two people have already voted for the Magnum D2 - I mean I'd love to grab one but I'm pretty sure my Eclipse Ti has the SQL of it. And honestly, in a 6.0cuft box you think a D2 will beat a 12L7????? Isn't there a waiting period on the D2 anyway? If I get a sub thats only purpose is for SPL...

I'm getting into competition in car audio and I wanted to find a good sub I could use. I'd really like to test my skills with a good, but not crazy SPL sub (so $275 max on sub). I will be competing in SLAP and I want to compete in the stock class 1-160 in^2 class (single 12). I am sure I will...

Eclipse Titaniums work well in small sealed enclosures, and actually for a 15" 3 cuft per sub would probabbly be very clear SQ wise. But actually if you want it to hit harder, I have my single Eclipse Ti 12 in a 1.7 cuft ported enclosure and it hits real hard and sounds good too. If you...

I've had a single 12" Eclipse Titanium since last april, and recently the cone started rattling. I think this is due to the change to a ported box that I recently made. For like the first 8 months I had it in a 1.2 cu ft sealed box, and it sounded good and hit good, but then I upgraded to a...

Looks crazy nice. And its not like your Eclipse Ti install was bad either. I was wondering how these two setups compare in regards to SPL and in SQ. And also what is the differences in enclosures and amplifications. This is just such a good place to do this compairison since the setups are...

Hey I am wondering why you would want to go with more subs and probabbly less efficency instead of a few good subs with 100% efficency. I am sure that 8x 15L7's would be insane, but the more subs, the higher competition class your in. Why not get 3 or 4 subs with better SPL capabilites than...

I just built a ported box tuned, which is tuned to 35hz. I have a subsonic filter on my amp but I just realizes it only goes to 30hz. So I am using the subsonic filter in my audiocontrol epicenter, which is set at 33hz. I will eventually replace the module inside to put it to 35hz as it...

new box port I haven't had a chance to test it because my trunk broke! And I don't want moisture ruining my stuff. But if the port noise is killer I can always open it back up to install a slot port, although that would lessen the box volume by .10 cuft.

In the documentation it does not recommend any type or size of enclosure. All they give you is the tiele/small parameters and leave the rest up to you. But with an FS of 27hz it can be used in either a ported or sealed enclosure.

Is it possible that this sub functions in different environments than a traditional sub? I mean, when was the last time you saw a big 12, like this, work nicely in a 1cuft enclosure (.8 after displacement)? Maybe this sub is designed to work in enclosures 1/2 or 1/3 the size you would expect...

I've based alot of my figures on the above website/recommendation. Is it possible that this sub functions in different environments than a traditional sub? Can someone please punch these numbers: Eclipse Titanium 12" (9122) Parameters: DC-R - dual 3.1 ohm FS - 27hz qts - .30 vas - 3.2...

Type in the T/S numbers into Win ISD or something else and see what you get. (t/s @ http://forums.caraudio.com/vb/showthread.php?t=42203) Please someone back me up or correct me, I am a little worried now. Net size is 1.7 cu ft tuned to 35hz. THANKS!
