Yeah it’s a 19 Dodge Grand Caravan, have half of the install ready just tripping on these speakers. Going to have 2 NVX 12’s @1ohm final in the trunk on an Orion 2500.1, Rockville DB45, super cap, high output alt, big 3.. I’m guessing get brackets for the outer 3.5 openings and do a full range...

Title sums it, I’m getting tripped up and could use some suggestions. Every build I’ve done the vehicle has taken standard 1” tweeters. I’m going to upgrade the door speakers in a new vehicle which takes all 6x9, but my dash tweeters are 3.5”. How should I plan this? Do I buy the component...

Hey all, I am interested in installing two separate, mirrored, custom subwoofer boxes. I want to have a final load of 1ohm. I have two DVC 4ohm subs I’d prefer to use both voice coils. I saw a diagram online that is basically the picture I drafted up to help visualize, that is supposed to be...

Appreciate that reminder

I totally get your guys recommendations, there are reasons it is set up the way it is though. I have 3 kids too, lol. Good to know about CEA only really meaning something with amps. I did consider 4 8’s as well but what I was looking at would have been sundown I believe and costed around 800...

Hey all, I’m looking for 2 10’s for a new build. I figured I should ask here because I be been looking for days can’t seem to find exactly what I’m looking for and maybe someone will have a suggestion. current setup: 2.6^ custom ported box @28Hz 12” skar vxf 4ohm DVC Orion 2500.1 birth sheet...

Hi all, I have made 3 different boxes of varying sizes all different, but same style with the port on the angled back against my third row, customized for different subwoofers. Two were rear firing for a Skar DDX12, my current one is downfiring for a Skar VXF12. Current box is 2 cubes, I’ll...

Hi all I’ve been having an issue for days now with my install.  When I open my door (any door/trunk) my system plays normal, but when I have all doors closed the bass floods the vehicle in no specific rhythm, with no input to the subwoofer amplifier, no song playing. It also plays normal during...

Hey all, I have a custom subwoofer box that I will only be able to use 50% of the time soon, I am looking to install a subwoofer in a compartment in the trunk of my suv. I will attach a picture of it and describe what I’m working with. I am trying to maintain the highest rms possible for this...

I'm liking what I'm seeing on these ab xfl 15s, kind of leaning towards that instead of the x-15. Still a bit more research to do, I wanted to stay away from having so many different brands in my setup but I'm convinced it doesn't matter all that much anyways.

Thanks for the continued input man, I know I should stay away from the Hifonics. I haven't bought anything yet so open to recommendations. I did know the x subs were more for spl, going to look at some of the equipment you listed. I'm aiming for a middle ground if possible, or even learning more...

I was looking at the x-12 v.2 also but it's the same price as the x-15, so I figured I might as well just go with the 15 if I'm making a bigger box anyways, will the 12 sound cleaner? Planning to tune around 32-34

Just an update for those curious on the progress, took advice. Returning the subs and mono amp. Planning on these items instead - Sub: x-15 V.2 D2 - 1500w RMS Amp: SVC -2000D - 2000w RMS mono (Or depending on funds) Hifonics Brutus BRX2016.1D 2000w RMS mono New box plan coming, possibly a...

Thanks for bringing that to my attention, don't know how that one slipped past me I will definitely reconsider the size of the box and orientation of the subs/port. The reason I planned on downfiring was mainly to keep the equipment a bit safer,

I see it appears I have made a mistake even with planning lol, this stuffs obviously not the lightest to ship back I'm sure I'd lose a few bucks doing it. I am going to ride this one out and see how it comes out. It's only my second build on a budget of around a grand, otherwise I wanted to play...
