Alex's Silverado

Can't wire the three subs to four amps. Also, they can't handle the power at full tilt very long. I'll be re-doing the wall anyways, and figured I'd switch to a more standard sub size.
They're a little louder than the DDZ 18's, but not as much as I'd hoped. I know I'm lacking port length and area though.

I'm hoping six 4" coil 18's tuned low on the four 7k's will finally make me completely happy. With the next wall rebuild, I'm going all out. Steel frame welded to the truck, bucket seats, lots of change.
you cant wire 4 amps to 3 subs but i can.. :0

 
Did you go to the show and meter today so we know where your at?

Yea you should be in the high 150s low 160s with all that power and woofers and being a bpillar... Time to rebuild Forsure

 
Wow thats crazy ! But its not like a 150s not loud lol just not as loud as I thought you would be.
Same. I only got to try two songs though, so I might be louder at another frequency.

"Freak No More" by Migos slowed, I clamped 11k total and only got a 146.0! That's my loudest demo song. It makes the doors flop though, so I might have lost some score there //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

Then why can't your wardens handle full tilt? Must be clippin like a son of a *****.
Gains were set the same as the first amp I ran to all three of them. They're 7k amps wireed to .35 each..... You expect a 3" coil sub to be happy about that? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Yeah, I wish I would've had more time to test songs

Dayton Audio DATS V2 Computer Based Audio Component Test SystemGet that run the parameters and let me heIp you design a box.

What size box and tune you have?

You should have around 8.5 per driver tuned to 35
Going to do two Sundown Team neo 18's in a 4th order

 
Thanks, but I'm not super concerned with chasing numbers.
Just emailed Sundown about getting some Team neo 18's
I know but it just seems silly to spend all the money you do to try to get louder and just guessing if your louder ? But hopefully you will get there my friend ! Maybe you should clamp each amp individually to see what kind of power your getting out of each one ? Maybe work on this setup abit before changing it up again ? It would seem that there is something really wrong there ? I am at a 147.1 with my little ppi 1000 wired at 2ohms so about 375w per 18 team ? I am hoping to be in the 150s when I can get my new big amp.
