2 12" alpine type x's

[hockeytoker 10+ year member]

could two 12" type x's take a aq3500d amp wired to 1ohms?

or would it be better to run them on the aq2200d amp?

also box recommendations? i no it should be sealed an tuned to 32hz but how many cubes should i give each sub for them to perform there best?

also ill have the electrical to back all this up

this will be a daily set up no comps or nothin

if you know it should be sealed and tuned to 32hz you have a problem,

i dont know what these subs like but you would port a box to 32hz, not a sealed box

 

[hockeytoker 10+ year member]

no i've heard these subs sound a lot better in a sealed box man

if somebody can tell me why i should get a ported box then im thinkin 64 square inches of port tuned to 32hz

you dont tune a sealed box. the port is what tunes the box.

go to the car show tomorrow in denver and see some systems and ask around there. there will be some good info that you can gather

o forsure thanks! how many square inches and how wide should the port be for 32hz?

i'd do about 15square inches per cubic foot of your enclosure.

but i would just seal them. they are more of a sq sub then a spl sub.

 

[hockeytoker 10+ year member]

forsure 2 cubes a sub or bigger?

 

[csu87 10+ year member]

Don't confuse him. Yes technically you build a sealed enclosure to have a certain F3 (the frequency where the output has dropped 3db) but it's not nearly as important getting it right as it is for a ported enclosure.
