Hey guys, I am new to this oh so addicting hobby of car audio, it started with a $200 kit I got just to add a little depth, with two bad Kenwoods and a 350 watt kenwood amp in a sealed.
So, I recently upgraded from that business.
What I am running now is a SA-12 D4, and a TS-W3002D4 ( I am getting another SA-12 D4 next week just didn't have deep enough pockets to buy it all in one bundle) and I upgraded my amp to a HiFonics Brutus BRZ1700.1D , I believe I wired them in Parrell (Negative negative; positive positive, right?) So I believe I got the wiring right, and I got a Power Acoustik 2.0 Farad cap (Don't know if that does much to the kick of it, I haven't hooked that up seeing as I only had 5 minutes to spare before work when I got it in the mail, hooking that up tomorrow) and I am running a ported box. I ordered it online, however, I am going to look into building my own hopefully down to exact specs. Paperwork that came with SD-12 claims it needs 2.0ft^3 tuned at 35Hz. The box I have claims it runs at 1.6 Gross cubs, and 1.3 Net cubs, what one do I look at? Am I not getting nearly as hard of a kick due to lack of box size? Also, it is tuned at 39Hz and the SD-12 calls for 35Hz, is that noticeable?
Thank you all for any help that can be provided! Many thanks in advance!
