Thinking about a goundpounder....

[tez4life Premium Member]

Just messing around with the idea, if you had lets say a 5k (Team Cactus, Atomic, RD, AB, etc...) and around 10 to 11ft3 gross, what would you do, a really nice pair of 15s ported or a lot of smaller drivers with smaller RMSs?

What something that going to sound good at any volume level, I know both type of setups can, just curious to some opinions.

I like the RE SEs, 8 12s sealed could go in that space with around 600ish per sub, as long as I could keep the voltage up.

Input is apperciated, thanks.

And I ****, should have proofread the title //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

4 12's ported should work. DDbump runs RD Alpha's I believe off about 5k+ and his shit slams...

Thanks Mike, thats one thing ive been leaning toward lately. The concept of the 8 12s hit me a few weeks ago, but im concerned about cancellation issues and wiring with so many drivers.

Maybe some DC Level 4s, or AQ SDCs?

That is true as hell, lol. I see we have not gotten around to building that new box yet?

I did make one decision, I bought a brand new AQ4x90 over the weekend //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Indeed, that screws things for you seriously lol. And ill be honest, I miss my sealed setup. Nothing against ported because its treated me very well, but it seems like my sealed setups never missed a note at all. Could honestly play whatever.

Friend of mine had a similar setup around the same time, and he has a 5k and was playing around with the same idea. So IDK, just getting some input.

Of course, I know that, I dont want to break loose my motor mounts or replace every window in the car due to the earth shattering, baby waking, old people disturbing, older people complaining, mad DBs they produce yo. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
