    "How to calculate cone area
    Cone area = pi x (r x r)
    pi = 3.14 r = radius of sub

    One 8" = 50.27
    One 10" = 78.54
    One 12" = 113.1
    One 15" = 176.71
    One 18" = 254.47"

    16 8's have an approximate are of 803 in^2 and 4 18's have approx 1013 in^2. Of course no cone is an actual 8 or 18 inch cone but the 18's would still have more cone area.

    I never said anything about 18s. I wont be able to fit 4 18s because i wont have enough airspace. I can get about 14-15 cubes total out of my truck.

    ever thought about a blow thru? i friend of mine put 4 15s in his bed.

    now that would defeat the purpose of a truck tho.

    I have thought about a blow thru but i dont really wana cut my truck up like that right now. I just wana do 16 8s because it will cool especially in a ranger.

    One of the team sundown guys has 32 12s in a diamond and it gets down. I dont know if i have enough depth for the diamond for 16 8s.

    ok how about an octagon?? 2 per section.

    and i think 32 of any sub will get down. what does he meter with 32 12's?

    I think its somewhere around 162-163 at around 35 hz i believe. I talked to him yesterday and he said he is working on a design so i will post pictures when he gets the design done.

    i sooo want to do a whole mess of 8's too. in a 4th order bandpass tho.

    mine get stupid @ 26 HZ. but one will bottom out at louder vol levels, so i have to watch out or "pop pop pop pop" it goes.

    if i could tho id do 8 with 800 to 1000 watts. just to show people it doesnt take an ass ton of power and super huge subs to move some air. mine can blur your vision a lil bit already. its cool as hell, lol.

    i wanna do it with cheap subs too. just to prove a point.
