Re: rangerboy101's audio build log

Peel and Seal?

If you close up the big hole your midbass should improve greatly. I'd also but some deadner all the way around the speaker baffle in case there are any air leak. Just my 2 cents.

Re: rangerboy101's audio build log

Nice SA-15s. I'm assuming thats a buck design?

Should be loud with subs forward port up both to the ear on the meter should you get on a meter.

Re: Show Your System

Slightly. Aeros are more efficient so you need the same before port and displacement but your port area can be smaller(if I'm wording this right, extremley tired tonight). I use aeros a lot to test...

Re: Show Your System

Interesting. I'm too tall to have my seats like that though lol. If I'm seeing correctly the port is on the bottom? Vertical port might work better. Just a "guess" though. Never tried subs up port...

Sure. I've got some other subs to try too(DD2510 and AQ HDC10s along with some borrowed Treo SSi 10s) but these are going in first. Saw you picked up an SA-8. The SA series are a solid subs. I had...

Re: Good shallow mount sub??

In this case, your full size sub most likely did not have enough airspace and with the shallower sub you have a lot less displasement so it sounded better. I kind of agree though. Shallow mount subs...

Re: Ehh Hopefully can answer this?

With a proper size, properly tuned, and properly built ported box will sound just as crisp as a sealed box. Now if we are talking prefab to prefab then yes. Sealed is crisper than ported.
