    Well will the nine.1 be too powerful for my subs?

    Thanks for your help guys. I believe I'm goin with the nine.1 for the subs. When the dude had them before me, he hit 151 dbs with the crossfire 1000d in the boxes they are in now. When I get the new amp and new box, will I b close to the 160s?

    idk about 160's but it will be higher than 151 apparently. u should send azn a pm and get that NINe.1 ASAP! and get them subs goin!

    doubt the 151 was on the termlab...probably a horribly tuned audiocontrol or something.

    with two sealed 15's you aren't going to get into the 150s. I'd estimate mid to high 140s. no where near 160

    These subs are going in a ported 6 cubic ft box tuned to 35-36Hz.

    deff mid/high 40's. 160's would take a TON of batts and amps. literally. :eek:

    O ok. Well im not sure what kind of db meter was used when he hit 151. It was at a competition and he won his class.

    Well i guys, i got my box built and i put it in my truck. Those cerwin vegas pound like a mofo with just 300 watts a piece. they also drop really good lows. When i get home from work, ill post the pics that i have and i will try to get them on the meter before i come home today.
    Btw, g3 designed this box and he did a great job.

    It wasn't my first box but the boxes I built, I kinda guessed 4 the measurements. I'm not quite done w the looks of this box yet.

    as long as you're in the ballpark of the figures i gave you then you should be fine. oh and how did you orient the subs and the port?

    I put the subs beside each other than the port at the end. I used the exact measurements you gave me and they slam.

    Yea i am going to do that this weekend because when i made the box, i didnt have the router but i have one now bc my dad found it. Nothin is holding the box in place. Its just sitting there. Should i put some bolts thru the bottom?
