2 shivas in an SQL (medium sized ported enclosure) would get louder and sound better than kicker L5's with less input wattage.

how much room do you have? you may want to look at 6 15's.... yes i said 6 15's for less than $200.... talk to halibane about that one... Funky pup SPL set up here we come...

SQ is 90% install.

I know plenty of people at the last finals that were running solo X, L7, L5 for sq

and also i didnt see any Adire or RE subs on that program.. its nice but for example RE doesnt give all of those TS parameters that winISD wanted oh well no big deal.. but does anyone know the xmax of a 15 RE SE?

haha i might have enough room.. but i dont think i would want to take up that much space.. although that would be pretty cool id like to be able to see out of my rearview mirror (i have a 96 explorer) and i figure the box would be tall and block my view.. but haibane if you dont mind what kinda setup is it with the 15s?

products > subs > *pick sub* > TS (on the left)

most of them are there, xmax isn't there on the SE, but that doesn't matter in box calculations

Sure people can make things sound good. But your average car audio begginer doesn't know how to do so. Simply slapping a brahma/xxx/shiva/tempest/ect... in a sealed box of some given deminsions will have good sq.

set them up isobaricly. a ported isobaric enclosure...what a dream...


the website is currently down. but i think a funkypup 15 handles like 200 RMS. so thats... 1200w. a nine.1. will work.
series is 0.67ohm and series/parallel is 2.67ohm...
3 3cuft ported enclosures set up isobarically with some funky pup 15's...i bet it would slam pretty well... it will take up about all of your cargo space though...lol...

Found out my step brother, who I will see on Thanksgiving, is working for the shipping department of Stillwater Designs (aka Kicker). He's talking to a couple of the tech guys, trying to get me some plans for the optimal balance of sq and volume.

I talked to my step-brother on Thanksgiving, and he works at Stillwater Designs aka Kicker. . .How convenient.

Basically I ended up with one of the tech guy's personal phone numbers. Hopefully. . .this will mean the end of my confusion.

I didn't even know my step-brother worked there =/

FPs blow on way less than 200rms

they're pure crap, they won't get loud in ANY install, their only use is to have 6 people chip in on a 6 pack and plug them into the wall outlet one by one

Good idea SR20.... New years party, here we come. so far we have $300 saved up between 3 of us. probably get 500 by christmas break. order 2 cases of 15's and the rest goes for Russian Brewed water and some tennesee city water.... if you catch my drift...screw fireworks...were blowing up speakers....
