RSD 10D subs x 10

Post by gln305 »

I just ordered 10 of the RSD 10D's and I plan to power them off of my Audioque 3500D (3500 RMS @ 1ohm). I was curious what size enclosures you guys have had good luck with? I was aiming at using them in the 0.5 recommended enclosure, but that gives an overall enclosure Q of 0.9 or so. I know 10 subs isn't an SQ setup, but my goal is to compete in SPL and SQ, so when I turn the subs way down I need them to sound good.

you can go a bit bigger on the box, but .7 tops they really start to loose their accuracy above that

Good to know, I think I'll go with .6 and see how I like that. Thanks!

Chevy Colorado extended cab. I can get around 10 cubid feet under the rear window, so 6 won't be hard to attain. That will also leave me room for my two red tops and the amps to be displayed nicely.

Nope, just bought them on Ebay for $99 a pair shipped. Couldn't ask for much cheaper than that LOL

Box progress, got the majority of it built from a single sheet of MDF! The legs on the bottom are about six inches longer than they will be when installed, I just left them long to make working on the enclosure easier. The batts you see are a pair of Optima Red Top 34/78.

Yeah, they are going to share air space and since I am using a mono amp they will all be getting the same signal and wattage...done this many, many times with no issues. Matter of fact here's a pic of my old xB with 6 12's sharing the same space...it was very loud!
