I knew once you went with a vented enclosure in a trunk that alone would bring it to life,it helps the pressure flow out and into the cabin.Well done,when I was a teen in the 90s you would have to get Rockford fuasgate and orian to sound like that$$$$$
@KeithZim2 жыл бұрын
Some "rusty old pro from the 90s tips": You need to trim that carpet around the sub and then use a gasket. Enough air leaks to impact the sound. Facing a sub backwards masks distortion/clipping which could lead to speaker damage. Subwoofer distortion usually needs to hit about 20% total harmonic before the human ear can detect it. Clipping can cause damage by trying to instantly stop the speaker at the point of clip instead of the smooth transition in direction like you see in the waves on a scope. I might buy one of these. Ive been missing low end since I bought my car, and now that its old and paid for.... :)

Not bad sound at all, and reasonable price too! I threw a blaupunkt all-in-one sub under the passenger seat of my insight, needed to raise the rear of the seat slightly, but you can find one that doesn’t need it. Then, just some regular 6.5s in the doors, and added behind the seats in the stock holes. It honestly sounds great for a cheap setup, and now I have the cargo bin back, which was previously taken up by a custom (heavy af) sub enclosure that came with the car 🤷♂️

You should know that wiring your sub down to one ohm would get you the full 800 W out of that amp if your subs are wired to two ohm or four ohm, you’re only going to get half of that power so you should look into wiring the sub down to one ohm because that’s what that amp is rated for. I also have the same set up but 10 inch in my five series BMW And it sounds great if you don’t already have it wired to one ohm 👍🏻

@@559Obsalex personally I keep it off. It can introduce clipping really quick and that’s what blows subs. Bass eq is there name for bass boost and will raise a whatever frequency it’s set at. So if it’s set for 40 hz it will boost 40 hz and maybe some higher or lower. The only reason I could think I would use it is maybe if the sub was in a sealed box and you was getting no lower end.
