I was planning on running it all at once... why is that bad??

Or sell everything else and buy my AQ and run 2 HDC3's in 7 ft ^3 box on 4k and be good. No need to run a hundred different subs.

op are you planning on doing any electrical upgrades to run your 3-3.5krms?

 

[RangerDangerV2 5,000+ posts]

ya I said that before 250 amp alt big three and kinetik battery

 

[TheUnderFighter 10+ year member]

I hope you're trolling running all of that. just search "why not to run different subs". But yea, definitely sell the L7s and kenwood, and all of that basically and snag a couple AQ HDC 3/4, with a new amp. And beef up that electrical.

Ok ill sell the l7s and how bout this setup two hdc318s in one ported box (volume?) with two dx 1000.1s. Good enough for some spl competition? should I get aluminum coils or copper coils?

Aluminum are great for SPL because they can take a lot of power at a shorter amount of time compared to copper, but will heat up quicker. If you will be more musical and not so much burping go copper.

Are you burping or doing music. And once again WHAT ORGANIZATION OR CLASS ARE YOU PLANNING ON RUNNING IN??? knowing that will help in knowing what to advise

I run 2 aq12oods strapped to my d1 aq hdca 15. At 2.4 ohms in 4.2 cubes. Did a 146.5 with nl tuning. Im shooting 148 next year.

Okay ill go with copper coils... Could I get in the 140's or 150's with these two 18's and if not please tell me what will get me in the 140's or 150's. And could I get away with putting both 18's in a 10 cu ft box tuned to 35 hz?

 

[Team TH (Donny) 10+ year member]

Depends on how you go about the build of your box. If you buy a prefab box you won't be seeing great numbers. You could easily be in the 140-150's with a high tune, around 20-25 sq in of port area per cu ft, and so on..

 

[RangerDangerV2 5,000+ posts]

screw it Im goin with two nightshade 15's. I will be making the box myself ported of course.

Putting up numbers is pure application, enclosure, and how you can make them work together.

there is no answer to any question that is based on achieving a certain db number.

bumpin i would have some one design you the box. Like ^ this guy

 

[RangerDangerV2 5,000+ posts]

actually I just found the atomic apx 15. Anyone know how much they are? Would one suffice with the right box? and yes I will need some help designing the box....

maybe I could go with the extinction 15 which is better apx or extinction.... and which is better suited for what I want???? (daily driver and spl competiton???)
