New wall draw up. (pics)

Still not finished. I'm in the process of tearing out my old wall and putting this wall in my jeep cherokee. This one will have the Solo-baric 15"s. Not finished with the drawing completely but here's a sneak peek.

12.7 cuft

32hz

1500wRMS

Because their the L5's and their only 750rms a piece. The amp is actually underatted so i don't wanna push my luick.

If you look on the kicker site at the specs in the manual you'll see that the max for a vented enclosure is 6cuft. I just wanna do it big and get the most out of these subs as i can.

big doesnt always mean loud. thats MAX for a reason. You probably would get louder without a wall. Those subs only need like 3.5 a piece. I would be looking more at opening up the port a bit, than making the box humongous. Like I said, if you need help im here, but I really know nothing at all it seems.

I agree, I have 2- 15 L5's each in 4cuft ported boxes on a hifonics bx2006 amp

and they pound hard, I would not go over the 6cuft max

That's a lot of volume, should get really loud though

holy hell at the misinformation..... at MOST they could USE 4.5 net, no need for more, all that happens at that point is power handling drops. 3.5-4 net, at a mid level tuning to daily would be perfect.

I would just open the port and make one vent down the middle but the actual wall is in 2 pieces because i thought I wasn't going to be able to get it in there at such a tight fit. So that's why i'm having to tear it out and redo. I'm also making some changes inside the box itself like the 45 degree angles and some other tricks..
