15" Brahma Box Question!!

[SPL 10+ year member]

Hey guys, I just got my new 15" Brahma and I am needing to build a box, I got a couple questions. Can my brahma survive if i make a 4.5cuft (after all displacement) tuned to 38hz giving it 1500w @ 1ohm off of a hifonics 1500?? If not what are some good dimensions that can handle this type of power??? I am leaning more towards SPL so i will probally go ported. This will be going into a 1993 Cadillac Seville STS if that is any help. And 1 more question how can i wire a XXX into a 1 ohm load???? Thanks in advance!!

Be mindful of your gain levels and make sure you set your subsonic filter correctly. The Brahma will do just fine, taking these two issues into account.

set your gains low so your sub doesn't explode. 1500 watts is too much. you got a big boxen up in there. e-mail adire and ask them what you should set your gains too, so you don't ruin your warranty.
