Yes I do want loud but, not at the cost of continuously killing speakers. This is my first system so I guess I also need to say "correct" is my target. I think I will be a little over sub'd until I get more speakers in the front, I just wanted to build the box one time. The more I read, it...

This is where I was unsure as to the best route. I obviously want it as loud as I can get it, but if two subs in a ported box with slightly more amperage (because of the one ohm instead of 1.33) would outperform three subs in a slightly to small sealed box, that is what I'll do. I've got the box...

bump

I figured out all of my dimensions for my box size. The cubic feet I will have for each sub is .743 instead of the reccomended .8. The box is the full width of my cab and I have 2 dividers inside, to seperate the 3 subs. So heres my question...would it be better to just run the three subs I...

Yea i need to do more research and just look over my amp and figure it out too. The subs are single voice coil

Im not entirely sure if these subs really need that many watts. I think the RMS is 350 of my subs. I might eventually up the amperage, unless you know something i dont?

So you mean by using....say 4 guage wire you could run more power than 16 guage wire? Or is there different ways to wire that make a big difference in the power?

Heres a link to the amp. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_9103_Rockford+Fosgate+Power+T500-1bd.html#

Any help or information would be great. About the box or the amp and subs. Thanks

So runnin my amp at 1 ohm to all 3 of my subs would be the best; worst; horrible idea? Im just not sure what to do. The amp is 250watts at 4ohm, 400watts at 2ohm and 500watts at 1 ohm. Im unexperienced at elecronics right now and really have no idea what or even how to do this.

If thats true that you dont need to port the box does the box have to be divided into 3 sections? Or would it be better for the subs to be in 1 big enclosure?

Really? I have heard that but i also have seen a shallow sub in a poted box and it did hit hard. Also these subs are a 4ohm sub...and the amp is a RF 500 mono that puts out 500 at 1 ohm. Im very new to amps and dont know what that means. What does that need to be at to give the subss enough...

So due to my limited space in my single cab pickup i have 3 kenwood shallow subs. I am about to begin to build a box to go behind the seat and i have some questions. First is there a reason why i never see anyone with 3 subs? Can one amp power all 3 of them efficiantley? Also will porting make a...
