1-12"CRV w/ 400Watts in 96 Accord Trunk

[mgramling 10+ year member]

I am thinking of putting a single 12" CVR with 400watts going to it, in a custom ported box, tuned to 34hz. 1.7cu ft. car is 96 accord sedan. How do you think that will sound. Mainly listen to hip/hop

Should sound fine.

It will sound good.

My roommate has a 12" CVR in the back of Probe getting 400W, and I have two 12" Assassins in 1.75 ft^3 @ 32Hz (each) in the trunk of a '99 Accord, so you could combine our setups and get what you're thinking of //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Realistically though, it should sound pretty good, but get ready for a lot of rattling!

I have 2 cvr12's with 300 watts a piece in a sealed box and its pretty loud so I'd say you'll be loud also espicially w/ a ported box.

1.7 for a 12? isnt that small?

Thats what kicker reccomends for compact enclosures.

Its so dang hot here in Memphis heat index for the last couple of days is around 108*. I will have to get me some good measurements. But I am trying to keep at much trunk floor space as possible. Other wise I would go with 2-10"s or 2-12"s

I am really thinking about going with a single 10" CVR and if I don't like it then go to 2-10"s CVR I have been out of car sounds for a few years, and I had a explorer, and a pick-up truck before that. This will be my first in a car w/ a trunk. So I don't know what to expect. thinking about 500 watts wich is a little much for a single 10" but, if I am not happy, the use 2-10"S then it would be 250Watts each.

I think a 15" would require to much trunk space, and much more that I am willing to spend on a good 800Watt RMS amp.

I want enough thump in the trunk for me inside the car. I could care less if it heard outside I am a geizer 30 years old. I don't cruize, or hang anywhere but to work or home.
