Enclosure for 2 15" IDQ's?

[ThatChevyGuy 5,000+ posts]

I currently have them in a prefab slot port at about 38 hz and yes they are loud, but lack greatly on any kind of low note. I want lows that will make you move in your seat and still have good output. So should i seal them or port them at 30 hz.

would 4.5 cubes at 30 hz be ok? its about all i can fit.

you talkin 4.5 each right? if so that should be good. 30 or 32 Hz is a nice tuning for general music so you can get that low end.

4.5 is for both

According to the sheet they require 2.0 to 2.28 a piece.

They are idqs haha

Why have you not sealed them or at least ported them and tune the box to the 20s??

Because i just got them and its raining outside. (my workspace)

I was trying to find peoples info but all dug up was one guys 15" in 1.55 cubes sealed.

i'm gonna say seal em up. they are sq subs and IMO will sound better in a sealed encolsure. putting them in a box tuned super low like vasilios said could work, but i would just say keep em sealed for them to really shine.

I say seal them as well.

Also I think it was funny as the one dood thought that 4.5cft each would work, lol!
