I wanna do atleast 140db or more in my truck. Cant decide if 2-DD 2508Gs sc in 1.2cu net per would acheive that or should i do 3-Sa v3 8s or U8s. Sure the DDs would be close to the same output as 3 8s since the DDs are really like a 9" instead of an 8

I hit 139.7 DBS when I was in my early 30's with a set of infinity 12" dual voice coil 300 watt RMS 1200 watts peak in a stock 150$ ported enclosure from sound world in Green Bay when I was at drop fest in Kaukana WI on a Rockford Fosgate Punch 400s yes 400 watts so All that on over 2000 watts is unimpressive and yes my subwoofer setup had a very wide bandwidth right now I am running 1 Fi audio xv3 15 on a US AMPS AX 2000 with the subwoofer inverted in an enclosure I built myself hitting over 150 DBS

I guessed a 140+ as I seen two 8's hit 140. I'm adding a second B2 Audio Rampage 8 for total of 2 in a custom enclosure tuned to 33hz. I should do a 140.

Thats what I'm trying to hit is atleast a 140db at about 35 to 40hz in my truck. Can't decide on 2 beefy 8s like 2 sundown x8 v4s or 2 dd 2508Gs vs 4 smaller 8s like the rage 8s or sa v3 8s. I figured 2 beefy 8s would get loud an deep as well as hit them lows and the 4 smaller 8s having more cone area would be little louder like maybe 2db louder but not sound as deep and low as the 2. I plan on running around 3k maybe salt 3 or a DD M series 2500 amp

I have a question more regarding the vehicle...... Trevor, how is the build quality of your car? Is it holding up to all the vibrations caused by the bass? I only caught a very slight glimpse of your cars dash buttons, I see you have a 2017+ Ford Fusion Hybrid. I also have a 2017+ Ford Fusion, infact, I have two of them. One is the crappy ecoboost Titanium and one is the Hybrid Titanium. Ive been hesitant to install any type of subwoofers in them due to these being my first Fords and I dont want to rattle them apart (if assembled poorly). Also, how does the aftermarket amplifiers impact your vehicles (electric assist, overall) driving range ?

I don’t have a ford but in my experience driving BMW hybrids with 2x 12” subwoofer the car held up fine to the vibration. Even in my 2001 Chevy Silverado it seemed to hold up OK. If the subs did use up any extra power from my hybrid battery it was not very noticeable range wise, although my battery may be bigger because it is a plug-in. Also, I do listen to a lot of podcast nowadays vs loud music all the time like I used to so I’m not sure if that would drain more battery.

Thats not bad for budget woofers . Im not into numbers like that but i do have a meter i did 139.3 with two dd audio 2508g sc on rms power . I also metered my stratos on a salt 1.5 which is way underpowered and did 138 im sure it can do 141+ when i put 1500 watts to each . Ill meter them when i redo my setup .

1.25 net per on the 2508’s and you’d be over 140 easy.. 2.5 net for two is a pretty common spec for those in the custom box world.. You didn’t say where you metered at first hrz.. but if seen many hit over 140 on same setup as low as 28hrz at 2.5 net tune to 33.. im personally a fan to tune 6.5’s and 8’s closer to 30-31 myself and then go little small on the box cause it keeps them a little more musical wo giving up the lows.. but plenty of people rocking well over 140 on a pair of 25’s at 2.5 33

​@@fishrrelaxing9361There's a builder near me that built a ported box for my yr truck that's 3.5cu net so I'm debating on if I should run 4 db drive G5 8s or 4 sa v3 8s. My 1st choice has always been those Dzd 2508Gs they look so bad ass and I know they sound awesome, but I can only run 2 maybe 3 max since they are little bigger then normal 8s and need more port area. Do you think I'd be that much louder and deeper going with the 4 8 setup or it wouldn't be that much of a difference but like 1 or 2 dbs possible if I ran the 2 2508 super charged in a 2.5cu box with 40 sq in of port area? I wanna get as loud as I can but also sound good. I'm more into 33hz on up like mid 30hz. I know those 2 dds would slam but if 4 other subs would sound jus as good and outperform the dds I might go that route.

@@jonathanlarsen4771 too big and too low. Not well. They can handle lower tuning in a smaller box. They need a good ratio to be stable. Originally I modeled them in a .75 at 32 and it was not good. Going up to .75 at 39 is where it's loudest and .5 at 34 is where it's lowest. This box is .66 at 36 and it's a wonderful middle ground!
