explain to me what a 5'th order BP box is. And what subs were you using?

[Ben Walker]

RS IMO of myself yes I am dumb but my IQ scores seem to indicate otherwise :D

[FireFighter]

bandpass's are sealed and ported

[Ben Walker]

RF punch hx2 dvc's older style a 5'th order bandpass is a special kind of bandpass that's ported in front&behind the subs to the best of my knowledge, like I said I had it custom made for the car :cool:

[FireFighter]

OWCH&lt;eardrums bleeding just thinking about something that loud :D

[FireFighter]

RS what do you hit?

[RSFireDog]

This thread is going no where.

Did you actually want some help or was this all a front to tell us what you have?

[RSFireDog]

145 last time I checked.

[Ben Walker]

so firefighter have you decided what kinda box, sealed ported what about&gt;12'sor10's?

[FireFighter]

no idea i want the loudest tho cost is near the same so that doesn't matter to me. what do you guys think. 145 with 2 12's 500 watts to each? how much air space do you have behind each one?

at ~1/2 volume, I had a single 12 in a Milhouse doing 136. The shop didn't have an SPL mic, only a mic for SQ so it didn't have the range to go higher than 136. I exect that it probably would have been mid 140s pretty easily with a single 12 in a sealed box.

I'm thinking that in a band pass box and a couple of 8s, 138 would not be that hard at all. Especially if the installer had a clue. If it was someone's first garage install I'd say BS, but I think it is possible. Now the thing about rattling the **** off the wall, no, that's BS. He might have said that to you to make ya feel better, but it's [img]graemlins/bs.gif[/img]

By the way, 136 at 1/2 volume was an inexpensive SVC 12" Eclipse on a PPI A300 (300x1@4)

2 12s or 2 10s would do fine. The box is going to make all the difference. For some cool boxes and check out http://www.subthump.com
