List your dimensions, amp, loading, vehicle and music preference... decaf, low daily, daily, rock/hi-daily or SPL and someone will probably help...

What are you looking for... soundwise?

Honestly not too picky, just looking for loud and low bass. It’s just an occasional weekend cruiser. 1983 Cadillac Fleetwood, so not really limited by trunk space or anything. Later I will have a more custom design made to fit over the contours of the front of the trunk but for now a plain rectangle box in the middle of the trunk pan will do. Mostly hip hop and old school/funk music.

Amp is a hifonics ZXX 3200.1d

In the floor pan... middle of trunk... what configuration works best.... anyone?.. I'd do sub/port rear on this one... 83 pimp daddy Caddy

Wonder how close to 3200 watts the amp gets... or is it MAXX rated?.. 2 ga pwr/grnd huh?.. I'll need a ballpark to port it correctly... I'm guessing 1800 or so at best... anyone?

The 3000 watt version dyno’d at 1810 watts so I’d guess 1800 is a good realistic ballpark. Figured it was cheap power

for occasional use and would push that sub decently.

Wow... that was close... 1800 ok... I'll try tomorrow if nobody else comes thru 1st... with the lower power you've got... wanna try an aero?.. or does it not matter to you?

Doesn’t matter, whatever would be easier as it’s only temporary until I redo my trunk.

Ok then... how much of a decaf fan are you?.. is a 31hz tune low enough?

Honestly I had to look up decaf haha I’ve been out of the scene for a while! But yeah that should be good, definitely gonna have to explore some decaf tracks now

I found a simple design on the DD website but it’s geared toward their sub would this get me where I need to be? Not sure what it’s tuned to or if it’s too big for the specs that the ct sub calls for..

In a hurry?.. usually someone will help if you give it time... and that dd box might not be optimum for your sub... give it a bit
