what kind of dB's are you hitting?

[FireFighter]

I would like to know because i am planing on being up in the mid to high 140's possibly low 150's with a jbl 1200.1 sealed custom box, dynamated trunk and 2 rf punch hx2's or 2 kicker L7's. what do you think i would hit?

F-bodies IMO are good for SPL I built a system that hit>138.8 with only 2 fosgate dvc 8"&a fosgate 500.1 so I would vote fosgate on this one [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] :D

thats what i was think too but i wanted some opinions. i have not decided on 10's or 12's yet.

[Ben Walker]

I'd go with 12's if your gonna have a decent sound stage upfront to back them up*you know some good>6.75 midbass*if your not planning on having good midbass up front, or at least amplified midbass I would go with>10's just IMO though :cool:

I listen to a lot of country. Up front if it will fit i am get kicker K65.2 componet set with the jbl 180.2 on it so 90x2rms to the componets and 600x2rms for the subs.

10's [img]graemlins/thumbsdown.gif[/img]
12's [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

Also realize how hard it is to hit high in the 140 and low in the 150's.. 155 is the threshold of pain, so...

[FireFighter]

I know this but i think i will be close i want it really loud.

[FireFighter]

do you think i would get more spl with a rf 1000bd with two punch hx2 10's in a proted box vs 1200.1 with rf's in a sealed box?

[Ben Walker]

sounds like a strong enough front stage go with 12's! IMO though why have that loud a stereo for country? my camaro will have>3 6.75" midbass in each of the front doors&either 2-8" subs in the passenger side in the dash or 1 10" I haven't decided yet but I should have PLENTY of base up front :D whatever you do good luck with it [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

ported box's will always be louder if done right than sealed but sealed can handle more power also, me when I hit 138.8 in the lanes with 2-8" I used a 5'th order bandpass custom made to fit in the t-top well :D

I hate to do this, but im going to wave the [img]graemlins/bs.gif[/img] .. There is no way you hit 138.8 with 2 8's

[FireFighter]

Some country songs hit fairly nice but i do listen to rap and r&b but not a lot of the punk rock stuff. the box will be done right i need to get an idea oh the dB's tho.

[FireFighter]

138 db's with 8's possible but unlikly

uncle kracker&kid rock hit nice :D umm I don't have to prove anything man I did hit that loud, I have plenty of friends that drove with me in that car&let me tell you after the first time I couldn't get anyone into the back seat of my car anymore :D most of them said it was like somebody was pounding on their heads with a sledgehammer [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img] in fact it blew chicks hair straight up when they opened the back [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

Your dumb dude, you did not hit 138.8 with 2 8's

I never said you had to prove it, I just said that you were full of crap.
