As long as your electrical system is pretty strong and its clean power, you should be fine. I saw a guy run a pair of XL 15s off a Sundown 3500 on each, and they handled it fine. Ive seen installs with 3000d going to a single sub.

I think either way will be fine, I know the BTLs will be happy, my friend had a similar setup in his Crown Vic.

Whats the specs and outside measurements of that box? And it looks good, Mobeious has the right idea, firing sub and port up and keeping the height low. Very nice.

Wouldn't it be louder to have the port firing to the rear? I know when I shifted my box around it wasn't nearly as loud with the port and subs facing up. Then again, I wasn't using nearly that powerful of amps or subs.

i am trying to find out if the clarion has an external or internal brain ?

 

[billetproof97' 10+ year member]
