thanks stipud that was informative however i don't want to build multiple boxes in order to try both out. So i guess i'm just gonna have to suck it up and choose one of the designs if i do go with the rear facing port; i could probably make a port as large as 9"W x 40"L X ?"D I would ...

thanks for the new numbers

now here's a new question. i got people tellin me i should fire the subs up with a rear firing port, what do you guys think?

subs & port up? or subs up / port rear?

if i go rear firing port i can possibly make a larger opening for the port

what yall think

brenzbmr thanks for the input. unfortunately the overall box dimensions i gave at the beginning of this thread is all i have to work with. So after port, bracing and woofer displacement i'm goin to be lookin at only about 2.25 cu ft per sub. If i can find a way to make the box a little larger i will...

i have a delta X5 10" table saw with a 50" besmeyer fence, i think it will work

thanks guys

i'm hoping that it doesn't flex at all. i'm just hoping that i'll be able to lift it when its all said and done with

it looks like its gonna be a 4 month project

i'm going to try and design this in AutoCad first but my problem is that I do not know how long the port needs to be? If I use a 6" x 14" opening how long will it need to be to be tuned around 28Hz. That is where I'm stuck. If I can get help with that number I'll be good and can start the ...

Wow, yeah 4 of those bad boys are going to pound. As far as overbuilding goes, I'd say go for it. More bracing the better no doubt. Did you say you were going to put them in seperate chambers? As for ports goes, what does PG recommend, slot or round? What hz are you going to tune it at also? That i...

Overbuilding?? Thats just right! Did you hear how many elites hes running? :lol: The bracing would be key in such a big box and if you are properly powering those subs How much power are you pushin? What kind of ride are you using? Also if you need a 6 x 14"" port you can make a slot port...

ok guys i finally have all my subs and plan on building my box over labor day weekend but i need help on designing the port (i'm not very good at it) Ok here's what I have to work with. It will be (4) Ti12d Elites mounted in an upwards facing box with port in same direction. Overall Box Dimensions: ...

Jason what part of the country do you live in?

I have a Xenon 200.4 but never noticed that there are red LEDs inside.

I don't have the rubber gromets at the four corners so I can see the red glow. Are they supposed to be lit up? I have never seen this before on the amp and I've had it for a year now.

Thanks

12 gauge I will eventually change to 8 gauge

yes this is referring to FM interference As far as the AM goes, I lost AM reception almost completely when I replaced factory head unit for an aftermarket Pioneer Premier, but I don't care bout AM cause I never listen to it

hey guys been wanting to ask y'all this question but never got around to it. I got a T1200.1 mounted in the rear of my SUV and whenever I listen to the radio and turn it on I get nothing but static. I have a seperate remote switch for each amp so that I can turn it on and off when I want to. I used ...

well i was hoping to build about a 2.5cuft net after port and woofer displacement and tuned at around 29Hz Hoping to make a SQL box

also how do I determine the required port length for the desired tuning frequency

do you think 2 x 13 would work or is that to small of an opening

if you look at the actuall ratio of the opening the round port will give you less resitance since there is no corners also the opening is even, a slot port depending on your ratio will constrict air. i usaully use a 1 to nine ratio for a slot port or less the reason slot ports are more common now i...

so if I read that post correctly and I want to gain match both amps at 1400W @ 4 ohms then the no load voltage required on the amps would need to be 74.8V

how do i gain match them to 1400watts each

well stipud you got me thinking about doubling up the tantrum 1200.1 on one Ti12dElite right now. My only problem is that the single sub I got in my car at the moment is in a 1cuft gross ( 0.8 cuft net) sealed box. I had received some wrong information when I built the box and I built it to small. I...

that is a good point but i would like to do some local competitions once i finally get the system completed

so the question is would i be able to turn down the gain enough to play daily and also be able to crank the hell out of it when wanted

Well I guess what my main concern right now would be. How much power can a Ti12dElite actually handle day in and day out? I've heard of people pushing over 3000watts into them but that was for SPL Blurps. So if I was crazy enough to strap 4800watts per sub what would happen besides the possibility o...

thanks for the input i like those scenarios you gave stipud

well depending on how much money I have laying around when I do this I may look into (6) Exile 2400.1 and have some fun with them

How long would it last for daily use?

if you have the space its always better to put a second battery
