what are some thoughts on multiple size sub set ups? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Multiple size subs (including different version / brand subs) cause cancellation and will (more likely than not) lower the overall quality of the build.

AKA Don't do it.

realley ?

cause I have a 18" in the back,

and wanted to install a pair of 8"s right beside my seats

to give off more mid bass transition from the highs to the lows

as the 18 absolutely murders the lows - but not the mids.

and my comps play nicely to match - but I feel like there is a gap in mid range still.

maby im special -

but I like my music to be on the verge of hurting me loud - and my mids are just not there yet.

it's not the best thing to do, it's kinda like one of those things where "if ya have all the shit just throw it in there and crank that ***** up."

Having a 18 in the trunk and adding 8's to the door isn't unheard of.

But typically they will be a midbass driver in a 3way active setup.

Not taking the same frequencies as the sub, thus not cancelling out.

And generally, if you have 8's in the doors, the 18" should be playing true subbass - I.E., 30Hz and under. Nothing wrong with large midbasses, just that they shouldn't be covering the same bandwidth as any subwoofer //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

He speaks the truth.

I wish I had room in my tiny prelude for 8'' midbass drivers. I can't even fit 2 6.5'' drivers.

Funny thing, Most would seem it a waste to run a 18'' at 30 and under. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I'd like to hear it though.

30 hz is awfully low to LP your subs, even if you have dedicated midbass drivers.

40, maybe //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

I don't even remember making that post last night, I think that was after I got back home //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

does anybody have any real answers?

What are you looking for? Go ahead and do it, if you want.
