i posted about this before so this is kinda a update. i finally got my treo csx 12.22's in. went to a show this past weekend and pulled off a 149.6 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif . as of right now i have the subs in 5.0 cf after port displacement and before sub dis. and my port is 14 by 5 and tuned to 42 hz. ive been thinking about building another box, but for spl should i go smaller or bigger? i was thinking around 6 cubes for both tuned to 42hz or should i seperate them and put each in 3 cf ? if anybody has any input please feel free to post your comments or anything. any help is greatly appreciated. thanx in advance.

if you really wanna get louder you have to find the resonant frequency of your vehicle, then tune your box accordingly so that it peaks at that frequency.

buy a smaller car.

There's soooo much more to getting louder than that.Simple things that can get you louder even in just a daily driver/street beater.

But I'm not going to give anyone any information //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif If you're serious about competing it you'll figure it out yourself.

but seriously sound deadening is good, and try facing your sub/port different directions

If your competeing sometimes it helps, and sometimes it hurts. I have seen it go both ways //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

mount the subs upwards, and fire aeroports outwards to the back or the drivers side.

if you going for just spl, you could probably stand to even tune higher.

It should always help, in PURE SPL. It raises the RF of your vehicle, and it's easier to get louder at a higher frequency.

BUT, vehicles do crazy things...

What amps/power do you have?

im basicly just looking for some input on box volume. alot of people say that 3.0 cf per sub it too big , but i dunno...

 

[Blunt 10+ year member]

thats not enough power for csx's to burp with. local guy did a 159.6 with 7kw with 2 15 csx's

deadener hurt our score..if you even touched the the outside it would hurt the score...

try 3^3' after disp for both with the same amount of port and tuning freq, bet you'll do a 50+
