Kicker 750.1 amp...what kind of subs/box?

Perfect Combination...That 750.1 is an awesome amp...make sure you get dual 2 ohm subs so you can wire the amp at 2 ohms.

I like vented boxes...but depends on the sub...some are made for vented, some for sealed, some for both...but If you like rap than I'd lean toward a big vented box

 

Those can be either sealed or vented...but I wouldn't recommend a bandpass

If you want some mad bass I'd build the box to about the maximum recommended size

 

I just plugged the driver into WinISD and what I would do is a 6 cubed feet box with one 6 inch port about 6 inches long.

This is gives you a peak at about 42Hz but the F3 is at 28Hz...This box should be LOUD and hit pretty DEEP...Cone excursion doesn't go outta control till below 27 Hz

The recommended box is really peaky with a peak at 50 Hz and an F3 at 33Hz...

I'd do my box if you have the room....bit its pretty big...what car is this going into??

EDIT...for my design again I changed the port to a 3 by 13 inch vent that is 13 inches long if you want

 

There is no Kicker CVR in on the list....you have to add the driver yourself

 

Um there are some places online that I have come across that build custom boxes the the money you pay for them is quite high and the shipping of a 6 cubic foot box would cost quite a pretty penny...you could go to a local shop or a local carpenter and have them build it for you

 

Xmax is listed on the kicker site...just in inches..so you have to enter it into WinISD as inches by clicking on the unit and it will change

F3 is also called 3 db down point...where the sub volume starts to drop off...I always try to aim for close to 30 hz as my F3.

Actually you could build a 4.5 cubed foot enclosure with one 6 inch port about 9 and a half inches deep...this is a little smoother but will be very very loud. With a good F3 of 32 Hz....I'd go for this one

 

6 inch diameter or 152.4mm

 

A port is a port...there is no noticeable differences in sound between round or square ports.

Most people THINK that a slot vent is better than a round port...but they are wrong

 

wow!!! full of questions!!!!! Good deal!

Most enclosures like to be tuned at around 30-40Hz........for a regular vented box. this gives good low frequency extension and good contrlo of the sub at low frequencies.

The F3 is the 3 cB down point of the enclosure, or the freq. that it starts to roll off in its output....In the car, this can be higher than a home sub due to the transfer fucntion of the car............ If you have a 3 dB down point of 40 or 50 Hz...thats ok........especially if you like to listen to rap and such..I like ALL kinds of music, except rap, and I like a roll off at 40 Hz or so........I like my boxes tuned at #5 or 40Hz....I like the kick of the kick drum and the rip your face off fender bass....... If you want a ported box, and listen to rap, and can respect your system, i say tune it at 40-45 Hz, if not play it safe and tune it to 30 Hz or so......

 

F3 is also where the system is at half power correct

 

no, the f3 is the "beginning of the roll off" But yes, power handling of the spaker will generally drop off at that point also,,,, but at a different rate..................Lots of math here and i am drinking beer as usual, so........................take my word for it! At least in the car audio world!!!!this is not entirelly true in all applications...............Oh, nevermind.........later
