Is this s a good deal?

[mrpep]

you cant compare unless you put the SA in a proper box. The pre-fab is junk for output. Dont even dare judge those subs when you are using a fking prefab. You are barely tapping into 25% of the sub's capabilities. You say that that you might test it out and what not... but you obviously have the sub on craigslist for sale....

I'm back and forth with ideas - I did put them up this morning but might just take them down. I was thinking that I can sell them and I can buy that 18" Dayton for my home surround but am seriously just considering keeping them and putting them in my van and keeping the w6 that used to be in my van in my home theater. The reason I don't want to put them in the van is I need the room for a stroller and family things. Unless!! I can build a box that is low , shallow and wide. In other words a box that I can stack on like a counter , I will have the subs face out towards doors and put grills on it for extra protection. The next question is who can design this box for me ? It would only be a temporary counter for things like groceries , the stroller is foldable and lightweight so no biggey there. Then I wonder if these 2 12"s will give me the satisfaction that the w6 gave me . So I'm basically just moving puzzle pieces around looking for the places to finish my puzzle. Think these SA will sound as good or equal or better than a single w6v3?

they should sound almost equal to but with a lot more spl in the right box and loads of power going to them, Pretty sure you are barely tickling them right now. For now, try to toss one in your home theatre box and test it out.

Whats your required box specs dimensions? for the van?

I'll get you specs later today once I get home , thanks .

If you're going to sell them at least advertise them honestly. That's not a t-line box (short t-line or otherwise)

 

[mrpep]

They call these short t line on Amazon and so will I , lol - theirs a pic of the actual port anyway so the picture shows exactly what they they are. Anyhow, I'm removing these in a few - hopefully I can get a box design for my van .

Jeff, I have about 52" width available actually 56" but need some clearance - 54" max . Can you design a box or know who can ? The shorter , shallower the better yet as close to 2 cu as possible , at 34 hz.

please dont, you are just screwing up every other noob that might stumble across this thread. Its a labrynth slot port Basic port. T line has to be the same port area throughout. What you have is just one big chamber and a long port, not any resemblance of any real T line. Its WAY too small to be a T line as well. IS A BIG DISRESPECT to T lines when you call that piece of abomination a T line.

This is proper T-Line there WAS NEVER a short T line. What you are doing now is basically equivalent to telling people to buy amps based off peak and max power...

See how ITs EVEN throughout the whole line? Thats what makes it a Transmission line. Just because some idiot on amazon uses a marketing gimmick doesnt mean you should mislead others too, thats a very shady and underhanded practice.

2 cubes isn't going to be enough for 2 12's.

You could just make a 4th order and throw all your family stuff on top of it. Subs won't get damaged because they'll be inside the box, and you've got a van so should have a decent amount of room.

 

[mrpep]

54" max width , probably 14" to 18" height and depth as lean as possible , I'm basically trying to stay as low and shallow as possible by taking advantage of the width.

Allow me to correct myself , I meant 2cu each so 4 cu total

Can only do side port if your depth is limited.
