Need box design - 10" SoloX Ported

[richierich75 10+ year member]

First off I have no problem helping any one. But I said if he he has no clue anout any to the stats and TS parameters maybe not a good sub for him. He comes off with some attutude. Im not taking shit from a NOOB. As far as your box what are your goals with it daily or spl? What kinda music do you listen to? How much power will you be giving it? If you want help drop your attitude!

Attitude, sorry bro but just cause I'm from Baltimore doesn't mean I have an attitude. AND if you read my OP it says mainly for ED listening, but would like for it to hit hard. I listen to rap and country (yeah I know different ends of the spectrum) and from one of my other posts I have two 1200.1 that will be the power supply for this sub.

Do you not see I asked about his goals and what he wants it to do. PS bottom of my post.

I would say tune round the 35 to 38 HZ range. As far as size goes you can use any where from 1.75-2.5 After speaker and port displacement. As far as sub and port position I dont really have alot of experiance with your car. But in most Suv's Sub up port back tends to work well.

Thanks for the info. Like I mentioned I have been speaking directly with Kicker in regards to the installation and box requirements and their recommendation is to 2.8cf (after displacement) and the dimensions I posted is the space I have available to a tolerance of 1/4" - seeing as my main goal (as a family vehicle) is to keep the 3rd row seating functional, so I am limited back there, so in order to get it to work Kicker came up with a side firing sub and port firing up in to the cab of the truck. Bucky is working on a design for me and trying to get this to work, tolerances will be tight but I really want this in my truck.

As for this sub in a family vehicle, I will be installing a relay swith for the remote-on to the amps so when the family is in there it will not be on as well as remote bass control. I do not want my 18 month old deaf.

i would like to see the design pics. Good luck with ur install. No one want the little ones to go deaf

I will definitly post picks of the total install. Growing up I was the one who installed all of my friends systems, but wasn't professional and at times a bit sloppy (not like they were paying me anyways) - but now that I'm a big boy, I want big boy toys and I want it done right. So I'll post finished picks - just might take some time, have to work it around wifey hehehe (maybe she won't notice)

SOLO X's sound decent but get loud and will take uber power daily. I think you will be impressed.

 

[richierich75 10+ year member]

Yeah, that is what I was told. I will also be doing the big 3 at installation time as well. Appreciate the help.

 

[BUMPING150S 10+ year member]

At least do the big 3 and put as big of a battery as you can fit up front in maybe even look in a new ALT

 

[richierich75 10+ year member]

Yeah, this "system" is quickly costing me more and more...I guess wifey does have a point. Looking into the Kinetik 2400cca and HO alt as well.

 

[BUMPING150S 10+ year member]

IMO I like Powermaster batterys over KINETIK and for Alt's I like OHIO GENERATOR they are not cheap but they stand beind there stuf. Systems always go way over budget.

Also with that kinda power use 0 Gauge wire. Go from the battery up front to the back Both + and - to the back with 0 gauge. It wouldnt hurt to do 2 runs of each front to back.

 

[BuckyBoy 10+ year member]

richie, is this slanted part the back or the front?

 

[richierich75 10+ year member]

I have 0gauge wire - was running that to a distribution block then to the amps for power and I was going to ground each amp seperately after they were mounted.

Are you suggesting running seperate 0 gauge runs for each amp? If so, fvck that is more money and I don't even have the d@mn sub box yet...

that will be the front, facing the rear of the 3rd row seats - the flat side will be facing the trunk hatch.
