    Maybe a stupid question,,,

    Ok,, thanks, (I HAD Two, ruined one.) Can get two more I think, so I wondered if you could do three,,, Just didn't know if it HAD to be 2,4,6 ect... in a box. Three would just be kind of different! Since I can get two more,, I figured instead of trying to sell ONE, I could use them all. And...

    Maybe a stupid question,,,

    Can you run THREE subs in a box? Cause I screwed up and punched a hole in one of my 10" subs, But my nephew has two more,, Can three be wired together right? (They are 4ohm DVC subs. (8 ohms each total.) Just wondering. Otherwise I guess I will only have ONE 10" sub in my truck for now.

    Built my box,, too big.

    Thanks again, I do not think I have any leaks really. It is just nearly 2x to big for each speaker. I am going to take some of the MDF, cut pieces and put them inside for now.

    Built my box,, too big.

    Not Carpeted yet, but can't go shallower, because my speakers magnet is only about 1/2" from the back wall. Sooo, if I was to "Modify it" Cutting the ends off, and putting new ends on would be the next option.

    Built my box,, too big.

    Ok, thanks, for the QUICK sincere responses, the rest, well, if you have nothing constructive to say, I guess your just Post *****s, who want to drive up your counts? No biggie, I can ignore those kinds of posts easily. Just a question, how does putting something like Poly fill in, make the...

    Built my box,, too big.

    Ok, I have two 10" Orion XTR's and they are sounding kind of,, "Loose"?? If that is a good term? Anyway I figured the sq inches of my box, wow, don't know how I miss figured to begin with. But it is pretty over size for these. I believe they only need about .75 per speaker. I have a tad over 3...

    found pups on the bay... Earth destroying DEEBEEZ inside.

    Well, I am 51 yrs old, never heard of FUNKY PUPS, however, I never really appreciated SUBS until the last 10 yrs or so, (Realized they could sound great with ANY MUSIC really) However, I have a Car Audio trivia question, Anyone ever hear of "Mind Blower" speakers? They were made by Jensen...

    Pair of Orion 10" XTR's in sealed box

    I see why you want to buy them from me. I forgot how good they could sound. They were in a box before with a tiny 240wx4 chan. amp. They sounded ok then. That amp gave up the ghost, and I had them on a shelf in the house for a couple years. Well, even only with HALF power from this amp. They...

    10" ORION XTR's are IN,, THANKS!

    Well I got them in finally. Wired them the way everyone said to. Only using the rear channel on the amp right now....in 4ohm configuration. Sounds pretty sweet. I may have too much room in the box though. Seems these needed about .75 cu ft. And I am closer to 1.0 Cu ft. Will this cause...

    Bass Flex Video!!!

    I also have never seen it. Some of us are new, and have not been that into car audio that deep. We have not spent hours in this forum, ect... I am on a couple Diesel Forums, and an Harley Davidson forum, on that forum the "Vids" make their rounds every so many months, a "Newb" sees one somewhere...

    box sealing?

    I glued mine, while assembling it. Then sealed the inside seams with silicone.... Don't know if that is overkill or what....

    Pair of Orion 10" XTR's in sealed box

    I READ the sticky above, There is NO BEST AMP, NO BEST SUB,,, NO best SETUP, ect... ROTFLMAO,, And I understand your frustrations in some of the questions I bet. However, do you have any recommendations on dual 2 ohm subs? (Reasonable price?) And 10",, Have to be shallow mount too, in order to...

    Pair of Orion 10" XTR's in sealed box

    Thanks everyone. Yes I already had this amp. I was running it with the stock HU and my Infinity Reference speakers. Now the Pioneer runs the speakers, (50x4) so they sound very good with it. Guess I will run this amp for now, and if I am not happy with it's sub performance. Probably doubtful...

    Pair of Orion 10" XTR's in sealed box

    They do not share the same air space, box does have a divider. So if I use the rears on the amp, and wire it like you told me, (Same as his way, make them two 8 ohm speakers, then parallel them.) This would be the same as using the whole amp, (Like your second example above?) and still using the...

    Pair of Orion 10" XTR's in sealed box

    Loaked,,, Exactly how are you saying to do this, (He has me wiring them with on coils + to the same subs other coils - which makes them 8 ohm speakers. Each voice coil is 4 ohms, (3.7 or so anyway) Is your way going to get me the most bang for my setup?
