ok here's my junk.
JVC KD-LH3150 Head Unit.
Pioneer 180watt 3-way 6 1/2's
2 Infinity Reference Series 1230w 12" subs, 300watt RMS 1200 Peak.
1 MTX ThunderSeries 801D Amplifier.
My trouble seems to be giving out any bass worth mentioning. 2 Twelves crappy or not should shake some ****, unfortunately mine doesn't. I originally built a fiberglass enclosure for the subs, that crapped the sack and got tossed promptly. Now I have a 35x16x15 solid MDF enclosure in the trunk of my 92' Civic Hatch. (Ported with 2, 2 inch wide 10 inch long PVC tubes.) I have the subs wired series and bridged across the amp. (Speaker 1 Positive to Speaker 2 Negative.) Now that you guys know the situation, here is my trouble, I got NO BASS!!! It playes, just fine, but I can't get the heartstopping bass I bought the system to receive. I am not going to win comps with 2 twelves, but I have seen a single sub drown me out. WTF!! I am relevently new to the sound game and wanna know what I gotta do? Make a bigger port? Port with MDF? Brace the box? Get more subs? Bigger amp? Run a cap? Tune it better? Go Smaller and with a sealed enclosure?Please any help would be great...
Thxxxx to those who speak
There's my previous post, the problem is mostly solved now. The series was running my 8 Ohms into a 4 Ohm amp. My Bad:/ Anyways, next situation is my ports. Everyone here said there are too small but I have no idea how to tune a box correctly. I bought some 3 inch PVC tonight and am going to make the ports tomarrow. The Infinity Reference sais, 1 12.26inchx4inch diametre port per sub in a 2 cubedfoot box, I have 2 subs in a 3.80 cubedinch box. How long do I need to cut my 3" PVC to, to tune it perfectly? any help is great, and sorry I am so wordy, but I don't like incorrect responces from incorrect information.
Thx Guys.
