    Dsc 4125 2 ohm vs 4 ohm 6.5 components

    3 sets of massive audio ck6 then a ported sa10 off a soundqubed amp. Just being in a boat i have to have them cranked so loud to hear them when i'm swimming. So the loudest i can get is preferred. I think i'll wire up a pair at 4 ohm and then a pair at 2 ohm to see if i can hear any audible...

    Dsc 4125 2 ohm vs 4 ohm 6.5 components

    thanks for the help...i'm searching the site like crazy now too. I did think about doing the 4 ohm/2 ohm thing and just turn the gain down on the 2 ohm set to match. I'm not really missing mid bass. Just before i wired this boat up i was wondering if i should change how i've always had it...

    Dsc 4125 2 ohm vs 4 ohm 6.5 components

    This is in a boat. I'm not too concerned with losing stereo. I have 3 sets, so 6 speakers which is making it difficult! And i don't want to cut holes for another pair! The way i have had it wired before is by using three channels. Each set (2 speakers) wired in parallel to achieve a 2 ohm load...

    Dsc 4125 2 ohm vs 4 ohm 6.5 components

    I am seeking help on deciding how to wire my component speakers. I have 3 sets of 4 ohm 6.5 components and was planning on wiring each set in parallel to a single channel. So i would use only 3 channels and they would each be running at 2 ohms each. Is there a sound difference or can the dsc...

    sa10 or dc level 3 12?

    Hi There I need some advice on a sub decision. Earlier this spring i built a 1.25 net ported enclosure for a dc level 3 12" sub for my boat. I putzed around and had no idea it would take 2-3 weeks to have it built. I needed a sub for a trip so i ended up building a reducer plate on the face of...

    sub recommendation for ported 1.25 cu ft @ 35 hz

    I was originally going to put the Dayton in my boat but ended up choosing a dc level 3 due to the low sensitivity. I was afraid it wasn't going to be loud enough. I run 3 sets of ck6 components @ 200 rms that get pretty loud. My current port is 7.5 tall 2 wide and 22.5 long. Parts express told...

    sub recommendation for ported 1.25 cu ft @ 35 hz

    I'd like to stay with a 12 if possible because I cut the **** hole already!!! Lol. Would a sundown sa12 just sound horrible in that small of a box if ran on 1k watts?

    sub recommendation for ported 1.25 cu ft @ 35 hz

    Thank you for the recommendation. I realized i probably should have mentioned my box is only 8.25 deep.

    sub recommendation for ported 1.25 cu ft @ 35 hz

    I built a box that is 1.25 cu ft tuned to 32 hz for my boat. I specifically built it for a dc level 3 12 sub. I did not know that with shipping it was going to take over 3 weeks for dc to build the sub. I have a trip planned may 14th and want a sub for this box! I'm searching for a used dc level...

    Slot Port Size Help

    Hi There I have been researching on how to design a slot ported box. I'm having trouble figuring out exactly what size I should build the port. I'm putting a single dc level 3 12 in a 1.25 cu ft net box tuned at 35 hz per dc. Due to the size of the cabinet I'm placing the sub in my boat the...

    Boat Subwoofer Help

    I'm only looking at subs with rubber surrounds for the moisture/uv reasons. My alpine type r lasted 10 years in the last boat. Took it apart last night and the aluminum cage was corroded. Bead blasted/paints and she's back in business! I still want something new and better than that old type r...

    Boat Subwoofer Help

    No magician! The storage compartment door is a rectangle that is 9" wide. The compartment itself is huge, just a small width door. So I built a .7 cubic foot box that is 14x14x9 and once the box was in the compartment I installed the sub in the box. I'm most likely going to have to do that again...

    Boat Subwoofer Help

    Hi There I am seeking help on a subwoofer setup recommendation for my boat. I currently have an alpine type r 1242d sub in a sealed .85 enclosure that is ancient and the aluminum is rotting from the elements in the boat over the years. Anyhow I'm looking to start over. The storage compartment...
