I want a "Wowing" 18

[Xprime4 10+ year member]

Difference is negligable on surface area. You said you wanted the 18" sealed, so its going to take more power to get it louder. But nevermind, enjoy. You'll see what I mean when you spend money and get nowhere quickly.

yeah but the ava seems extremly efficient. 27mm of xmax vs the 18mm of the type r could help a little, will it?

And like i said i'm not all about SPL. I'm pretty sure the ava18 and the type r arent in the same Sound Quality category so here the reason of this swap

Yeah definitely dont expect an increase in output, with the power handling of it and the sealed enclosure it will likely be a bit more quite.

well i only blast the subs at full tilt when friends want to be impress.. I would said that these days the subs are pretty much off 50% of the time so i can hear the impressive midbass from the id's component

what about making the box ported? recone possibilty?

from what i've read on the ca, caf, ssa, diyma and everywhere on the net, this sub is a lowend monster. Loud and nice sound too

No.

Not gonna happen in a trunk, it would be a waste to do any type of build in for that sub.

1k and run it sealed. Otherwise its not the sub for you.

I would look into another pair of 12's if you want to run ported. RL-P's or something would do good.

could you explain a little more? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

By saying not gonna happen in a trunk are you talking about the fact that i won't be using it in a home theater? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif My car is an hatchback if it mather

Not running the amp at full tilt is not a problem for my. My alt will thank my in the end.

So this sub is not good at all ported?

I'm kinda on a buget with vacation coming up... i would prefer to invest into a single sub and an 18 have alway been one of my dream.

[joshualittle]

If the sub is facing the roof, could the mdf sheet harm how it sound if it's like 2-3 inch over the sub top excursion? refer to page 2 pic

are you pretty much retarded? the Bl is by no means an SPL sub

and to the OP, that sub requires a massive box when going ported, more room than you have availible... there is no point in even trying to go ported.

i won't be considering his post //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

from what i've seen some people aeroport it with only 6ft/cu. I think i might be able to get that... with some work

The SICKO-X is a good bet if you can afford to wall off your car. That definitely classifies as a "wowing" driver. You'll have to wait a little bit but it'll be worth it.

im not the only one who is telling you not to port it... im just the first one to give a valid explanation... but if you dont want any advice (which brings up the question, why did you even make this thread?) then dont take it... go ahead and build it, then come back and tell me what happens

looks like a monster and idea of time frame when it will be into production?
