i wonder how loud you setup would be with my new amp on the way.... T30001bd with a birthsheet of 3986 watts @ 1 ohm rms

I'm contemplating swapping my Four Sealed Soundstream 12's for Three Kicker L5s in a huge ported box, built to spec

lol im not sure what i want.... hey hack you should get a better amp b4 swaping subs agian

dbss88

so your saying.. 4 subs @ like 250 rms each... would be louder than say.. 2 subs at 500 rms each?

in theory yes... but ive yet to see a 4 sub setup or idea that doesnt have cancellation (which they all will have some because you cant get 4 12s on the same plane) also your going to have to have them in sealed boxes and ported boxes tend to be louder so your getting to the point where 2 12s with a good ported box and good power have a much better potential to be louder then 4. But there are so many variables its hard to actually say. (ive had this argument before and everytime i could come up with something that would kill one setup vs the other so just remember its a theory)

but the theory is if you double the cone area or power you would get a 3 db increase

If I do swap, I will probably get a HiFonics Brutus 2006D

wattage is a measure of eletrical draw, not of how loud it is, in theory, you could have a one watt speaker that is deafening.

HackAbuse

The efficiency would be off the chart!

dbss88

yeah, so ive been looking into some stuff... do you think its possibly to fit an 18" sub in a sealed box in my trunk?

HackAbuse

If you fiberglassed the spare tire well and were able to get enough cubic feet out of it

dbss88

ah so prolly not.. i guess ill just get stronger 12's lol


wait would 2 15's fit?
