@12oscar12 Cant remember what that box was tuned too. I'm running 14.5 cf and 30 Hz now. But I would recommend at least 12 Cf after all displacement tuned to 35Hz. That should play a good variety for you!
@12oscar12 Check out PWK Designs. 50$ for the designs to a box made to optimize spl or audible loudness and sq? Its worth it. I have a PWK box for my 2512 and its more bass than I was expecting.
@XXrecklessXX100 the flared port is what makes your box loud, on the12volt. C O M you can enter mesurements of ur box and find out how to tune it and build it for free.
@quintonboffy Basically. If you plan on having anything over 1000 rms grab a good battery. Once you get around 2000rms and over a HO Alt is a must plus at least 2 Batts. Big 3 and 1/0 should also be standard on any system over 1000 rms IMO. Don't mess with Caps either!! They are bullshit!!!
i curently have a DD3518 on a soundstream t-2000, but i was thinking of upgrading to an audioque 2200 and a DD9518, do u think a 6cft box tuned to 35hz would be straight for the 9518 also
@seanbryant25 yes itd be okay im running 2 on a single dd m2a 2300 watts and have the box tuned at like 27 to 34 hrtz these subs love the super low notes and can handle it beatn allday
digital design is the best sounding and loudest for the money. i hear just one 15" dd and it was pretty damn loud. this system would probably break your ears off...i wish i had it too
@robertlugo213 if you want to be in the 2- 4k power range they handle with ease as long as your electrical is not sending clipped power. I also cant say enough good thing about the sundown amps! Outstanding amps!
@jesusthug What is the reason for your "electrical" sending clipped power? Not big enough wire gauge? Let me know when you find the time, appreciate it.
@SigmaBallistics The biggest reason for clipped signals is the gains turned up to high from not being tuned with volt and oscillation meters. Beyond that, not having proper wiring and a good electrical setup such as the right amperage from the alternator to the amp! If you plan on having a high power system that should be your first focus before buying amps and speakers! Upgrade your electrical system and your shit will sound amazing and less worrys about destroying it!
Also to make something clear about the 95 series. Yes they can handle much more power than rated. BUT they were made to be long lasting subs that were efficient at the rated power! id say you could run 2k rms a sub easy without worrying about long term spider problems and recones! That 3k plus a sub shit should be for those experienced enough to know that it will decrease the life of the sub a lot quicker! I have friends that can back this up. As for burps and all that DO IT!!!
Gain doesnt mean shit. Ur gain should be at no more then half buddy. Really nice shit but i bet ur not getting the full 3000 watts with thous amps. U need alot of batterys, at lease 8 optimas. and i dont c any batterys
@cvaldez2009 Had 3 kinetic 2400! and there is no way i was getting 3k More like 24 to 2500. iTs one amp my friend. Most people that can have these systems know what they have ;-) but thanks for letting me know. Shit this kind of setup was not and is still not common for average joe
@JmasterJr not for daily ground pounding!! your talking about limited hours on that kind of power. id say 2 sd3000 tops if your always bumping like me. Got to have the Alt and batts to back that up.
yeah I know you gotta have the electrical to back it up I only had enough for 4kw but hopefully when i get back from the airforce i will get a new system to instal
@JmasterJr Ya most people including myself do it backwards.. Always start with the electrical first and it is much cleaner power! i noticed it like night and day
are you running that amp at 1 ohm or .5ohms? im getting either the saz3000d or the autotek mm4000.1 and im wondering which amp would be better for me. i have 2 12'' re mx's and they are dual 2ohms so yeah...
dude, your box looks amazing! got specs on it? and how'd you do the flare at the end of the port? ive never flared out anything that big so did you do wood bending or what??
Hey nice setup 5* could you record a video i want to see the excursion on your bad boys when your done braking them in!!!! and nice pics on soundpressure. net
It doesn't matter how good a product is sometimes. There is always a dumb ass who comes along and yaps negative opinions. DD subs are hand built and outperform a huge majority of the market. Get out there and take a listen for yourself.
Mike your shit is slamming. Can't wait till you upgrade your electrical!
i hear that dd cannot drop low and sound like shit when any real bass is put though them, is this true? do they distort at very high volumes or excursion? looking for as many opinions as i can get, so please answer if you read this.
If you have the power they sound great! Real bass? I have played the Bass Extreme album through them with amazement! I think these are some of the best subs made. They are expensive and people love to hate what they cant have! I will say the Sundown nightshades are probably the best subs for the money in the 1500-2000 rms power range. Im curious where you herd they sound like shit? Because I never hear anybody complain that has actually owned a Digital Designs. These subs are not even flexing!!
thanks man, i have read that dd's are the best subs ever made then i read one guy that said they sound like shit one lows, so i figured id ask somebody who knew what they where talking about. thank u for the quick response.
Thats a tuff call because it depends on enclosure and how much power your going to throw at them and what there going in. AQ is a well priced sub for what you get and the BTL is no doubt a monster! I would say for me it would be between the nightshades and BTL's. I would go Sundown personally though because they get just as loud with less power, so there more efficient subs for daily ground pounding.
sick as hell man love it
