hey what do you think would be louder 2 10s ported or 4 10s seald the 2 10s ported would be on 1000 rms and the 4 10s seald on about 1800 rms they are the pioneer primeers the older ones with carbonfiber looking dust caps

only thing i see if the seald box not hitting the lows as good?

max demensions are 13 tall 20 deep and 34 wide

In which car?.. and can your electrical system support that much power?.

the 2 10's depending on the port tuning frequency have the potential to be louder.

in a 1994 caviler 2 door
im running it now at 1800 rms in a differnt car i dont know if the new one will

its the 10s or the 15 ive got i can run my 15 in as small as 3 cubes as well

i like my lows haha

i think the 4 10s would be louder more cone arear + more power = louder

Each time you double cone area you gain 3DB's, so 2 10's to 4 10's=3db gain (in theory) ported enclosure=3db gain across the board if tuned for flat response. Or Much more gai with higher frequency tuning.

so in thory it will be just as loud then? the 2 10s vs the 4 10s seald

what about a 15 in 3.5 ported at 31 hz on 1500-1800 rms?

depends which 15 and if it can handle that power thermally and mechanically. and 2-10's ported if tuend for flat response would be the equivalent to 4 10's sealed. 2-10's ported tuned for SPL would be alot louder. but not very musical.

the 15 is a mach 5 audio IXL 15 2.2 1000 rms its taking the power fine tho at about 1500rms doesnt get warm often unless im beating on it lots of xmax as well 22mm i believe

im sold i can go 3 cubes at 28 hz with it but i dont know seems a bit small to me

i want loud but also hit the lows good

the 15 in a ported box would definately give you the lows with serious authority specially if you tune that low. I don't have my laptop with all my box programs on it so I can't tell you if that box would work that small.

mark- the owner told me 3.5 at 32 hx should be decent for it

only thing is i have to do port back sub up becasue of hight issues i got one done right now thats 3.3 at 31 hz i think it is i might tune it a little lower tho
