    Problem getting amp/subs to right volume

    Ok so I have an Eclipse cd1200g hu, 2x DC lvl 4 12's in a ported box powered by a MB Quart ONX1.1500D. To get the amp/subs to really bump I have to turn the bass boost on the amp and the headunit up, which makes the music sound crappy sometimes. The head-unit doesn't have a sub out and I can't...

    Enclosures for DC Level 4 12s

    I wanna go with whatever would sound best for daily driven with a few db drags for fun on the weekends. I have been recommended 35-38hz with 18sq in/cu ft for the port area by corona_jeff, the guy I got the subs from. Also found 32-34hz as a recommendation for these subs on posts on this forum...

    Enclosures for DC Level 4 12s

    I'm putting 2 Dc lvl4 12s in my trunk, inverted, firing towards the back of the trunk. I will have at least half the seat down most of the time and will take out the speakers in the rear deck. I'm thinking about building 2 boxes like this: Box Width: 19.5 Box Height: 17 Depth: 15 Wood...

    Where to get signal for my amp .. line out/solder

    Ok so I have a 99 volvo s70 with a stock sc-816 radio (ghetto, I know, will upgrade later) I need to get music from the cd player to a new amp in the trunk and it looks like my options are either a line out converter hooked to the rear speaker wire or find a way to get into the preamps on the...

    Help me shake this Volvo

    I don't know what my box design will be yet but I have a good shop with table/radial saws/jointer/router etc. I was thinking all MDF, braced, slot ported front facing and I will have the pass rear seat folded down most of the time and the ski port open. Might mount them magnet out too because it...

    Help me shake this Volvo

    OK that makes sense, I'll try not to play too many sine sweeps and test tones till I get a battery, heh. Tonight I am going to order a MB Quart ONX1.1500D and 2 dc audio lvl 3's. To wire those to a 1 ohm load what would be better the d2 or d4? i'm guessing that d4=4ohm impedance per coil, so...
