15" sp4

[hone]

My cousin just ordered a 15" SP4. I was wondering if any of you guys have any experience what size box it really likes.

Space is limited and I won't be able to get hands on the car until the weekend to get actual measurements. The car is an 07 Camry if it helps though.

He had an RE XXX that he said the box was at least 3 cu ft and ported(small for a 15" i know) a few years ago and wants to slam again.

I'm thinking sealed would be best woth his space but how does the sub play sealed?

I was hoping he would wait to order something until I could get some measurements to see what subs would work best with his space but he saw the sp4 and had to have it lol

Not sure what he'll be using for power yet but I'm helping him beef up the eletrical system for now. He will probably end up with a 3.5k to 5k amp.

Texted him the picture, thanks.

As far as power goes I've recommended a soundqubed 4500.1

He is looking at a hifonics zeus 3200 which I'm assuming doesn't do rated(3200 @ 1ohm) clean at under $300.

Any other recommendations are welcome. I'm going to try and convince him to save up for the amp while the sub is being built and get something a little better. Or see if he'll go used.

Thanks. Hate to be asking all these questions in this thread, probably the wrong spot but....if he is going to cheap out on wire, would this at least be some good stuff for the price? http://m.ebay.com/itm/191519517199?_trkparms=aid=222007&algo=SIC.MBE&ao=1&asc=20141212152715&meid=0ee8dae52c00461b95df49336fa9a1f0&pid=100338&rk=2&rkt=30&mehot=pp&sd=181494436079&_trksid=p2141725.c100338.m3726&_mwBanner=1

Probably not as flexible as car audio brands but it should be more than enough. Thinking of getting some for myself too actually

It will work fine. I think the people that complain about welding cable being too stiff haven't actually used it, because it's surprisingly flexible. Though it has 1/5th the strand count of car audio wire, so keep that in mind.

Lol thanks dude //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif I'm trying to help my cousin ball out on a budget here. I really appreciate the help.

Well the beast was delivered today. Ahead of schedule too so he isn't ready for it lol.

Still working on box desings with cscstang and he needs an amp. Everything I recommend in what I think is an acceptable power level for the sub he thinks it is too much money.

He decided not to go with hifonics either though haha. Probably looking for used product but you guys think something like a SQ 2200 would do the job?

What's his budget on this amp? Also, what are his expectations and what kind of setup is he coming from?

$400. He used to have a 15" RE XXX in a mazda 3. He just wants to get loud and have some semi decent equipment.

See if he can get a 4500 from there somewhere.

 

[fly_marlin]

Oh and I'm assuming he has the electrical to support these amps, is that right?

 

[hone]

He has a second battery but stock alternator. I've told him to upgrade it but that'll be a while I'm sure.

He bought a sundown 2k watt amp, should be here next week. He also ordered a box from Cscstang. Should be slammin in 2 to 3 weeks.

I appreciate the help fellas
