2 10s or 1 12 ported?

[Decado2 10+ year member]

Im about to have Fiasher Customs build me another box. If you had 2-2.5 cubic feet and 1500wrms to work with, would you do 2 10's ported or 1 12 ported?
Would that be adequate airspace for 2 10s?

Help me out here.

Well, I have a set up similar to what you may be getting into. I had BJ build me a 2 cube 35hz box for 2 10's, I am powering those 2 10's off a Kicker Kx 2500.1, for 2500 give or take.

It is MUCH louder than any single 12" setup I ever had, and I had a few 12" setups.

But, off 1500 watts, one 12 may not be bad, depending on the box and what 12" it is.

My 10's are in a 2004 Altima, they are really loud and low in the air space that the trunk of the altima provides.

I will say I am biased, I love 10's, so don't take my word for it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Im trying to get comparisons to my 12" Q i have. My trunk is solid, so 1 12 in my car isnt nearly the same as a 12 in another trunk car. I just need to determine what my best option is.

Riot switching from brands and sub sizes does not prove anything, except that you rnew subs worked out for you.

I vote 2 12" sealed with plenty of power. No tuning frequncy to drop below and you still get plenty of output.

I see, but your subs are dual 2's. I need dual 1's or 4's to use the power needed for them. I need to wire to 1 ohm.

ahhh shucks!

ahhh shucks!

If the power was there at 2 ohm, i would of!

i was running them off a mtx 8100d 1500w rms at 2 ohm... subs saw about 450 500w a pice.. and still banged!!
