Hey everyone. I don't normally go on here but I figured I'd catch everyone up on my car. I can't seem to add pics.. lol hold uppppp. m.facebook.com/harlanmangulis/albums/998926850133441/?_rdrCheck out the album, it's public. I got my SSA icon 15" in there but need an amp. Got my crispy powerbass 3xls on the 400.4 with some alpine in the back for now. Let me know what you think. I'm trying to figure out how we can meet this winter possibly.

Winter is guna be tough for sure. I tend to not run my sub and amp very hard through out winter especially now that I'm back with a trunk build.....it's cold in there lol. Would be cool to all catch up tho.

Its nice to see that the Tib is back on the road, and that you're making audio progress on it.

Little update, I didn't keep my amp. Trevor blew his saz 2500 and i let him have his PPI back. I had the 1800 hooked up on my 15" ICON at 2 ohm (1.6) and it wasnt loud.. I have videos of this shit slamming in my Impala on 1200 and in his car on 1800, and it wasnt up to par. Damon said it was maybe my box? Idk. Let me know what you think. I dont have any videos because my phone is a POS but You could feel it but it didnt seem loud..

Sounds like a box issue to me too. Not enough square inches of port? What's Trevor doing with the 2500?

Seems like the box to me also. A box that hits low 140s throughout a 30-45hz bandwidth in one car may only PEAK at say.. 138 in a different environment.
Yes, Im being dramatic.. but you get my point.
What are the box specs?

I've forgotten. It's the recommended build from sundown for their 15s. I looked it up, it's 3.5 cu feet @ 35 hz. Not sure how I'd get it to be loud in my hatch. Any box suggestions are welcome.

So it sounds like a load wall issue. What way is sub facing? Port facing?

I tried it both ways. Sub and port back and sub and port forward.

Hmm.. Could you do subs and port forward, and seal off?
If not, sub up, port back... or sub up, port facing rear glass (i did this, and it worked VERY well with my 1st box with the one 4" port.. 2 3" ports sucked)

Yeah they're on the same size. Due to space restrictions my box only fits the two ways I had it. Should I make a box sub up port back with aeros?

I might ask some people with my car and see what they say. I don't want to waste money box testing.

That would be my recommendations if you have the room to have enough clearance for the ports. If not do sub up port up and have the port closer to the hatch and the sub closer to the driver.
