I love these $150 SPL challenges. Reminds me of being a teenager with a limited budget trying to get the biggest bang for the buck. I’m wondering what type of numbers you’d hit in a properly ported box or a 4th order box. If I remember correctly the Titans require a large box cubic ft or infinite baffle but I can’t remember. As much as I loved this box and the splatter design I think it would make for some great videos to try out different box designed in the suburban to see if you can hit 140+ You have plenty of room and I think it’s absolutely possible!

My 8 inch subwoofer costed 26.99. But the box is designed for a P2 8 inch from Rockford Fosgate. The cheapest best sub I can get is a 15 inch rated at 500W. Old school design as well. Both have no T/S parameters, which is a no-go. But my amplifier is not working correctly though...need a new one as well.

For those wondering the enclosure specs... This is 7cft sealed and the subs call for 2.64cft ea, so we’re definitely undersized here. That’s part of the reason I didn’t go ported, that and I also ran out of time and needed to get the video finished. I may in the future revisit this enclosure to see what else I can do.

I've been getting some really good deals on used gear I've been buying subwoofers with ripped cones and maybe little holes or something in the surround and doing pretty good repairs on them to where it's not even noticeable that they've been repaired. I got two Fosgate 12 punch he with holes in the cones. I superglued the whole s*** and then use a little spot glazing putty to make it look good again and then a coat of paint. Did the same thing with another pair of Fosgate p2 12s but sold and Bartered them already 4 cash and another set of 2 12 that were kicker comps that had tracked cones or just covers in this case I suppose. Sold them already also paid 35 bucks for the box and damaged speakers 414 the other one I paid 30 bucks for the 2/12 and the box and the last one was the Fosgate P2 12in paid 50 bucks for that in the Fosgate box with the two subwoofers. Sold them for 200 without the box and got some other hiphonix 12s also. I sold the kickers for 140 bucks in the box so some good profit and some good gear for little money that I could use in that challenge I think I don't know do does the Gear have to be purchased brand new for the SPL challenge?

Rob, that throwback sub box is awesome. Splatter FTW! Break those subs in for a few days and do your run in the Suburban again. Only next time lower your second row of seats forward to about a 20 degree incline. Don't just lay them flat. You might need to put something in between to keep a slight bit of elevation. Then retest. You should see a slight increase in dB. 👍

All I seem to hear from sub freaks is speaker cones vibrating, they are not meant to be driven that much. I know you turned it lower though. You can not get more by putting a larger amp on, they have their limits based on the resonant surface area of the speakers. The best speakers for sub bass are no dome only cone polyresin IMPP. Polycarbonates are too hard. Aluminium have tighter bass. Domes are for Hard beats. Great fun though, thanks.

I put the fan in and it is the same. It started as soon as I switched it on so I do not think it overheated and the fan is not on a heat sink.

Speaking of splatter paint, it reminded me of a system I had . It was 2 of very late 80's very early 90's Pyle 15 's in a sealed box (I had actually splatter painted the woofers..lol) hooked up to a kenwood 920 and a clarion eq and tape deck. They were in a 86 Capri with the big bubble hatch and for the time sounded really good. I guess someone else wanted more than I did ,they busted that big ol glass and took everything......😠😢

@@HifiVega I apologize if it sounds like I was questioning your expertise. That is not my intention. You probably do have them setup so there is no way to over extend them, It just looked like they didn't have much protection in the video. They are probably also not actually moving as much as they may appear from behind the grill either. It always seemed to me like 63 isn't very much protection, even if its 4th order. My preference was usually to pinch them a little tighter than that, as it seemed to give better linearity in the lower vocal range. Though that is only my subjective ears for my vehicle... For some setups that can leave a crater in the mid-bass however....

@@HifiVega Ahh ok. That makes more sense. I had a small thought. I wonder if they were causing a small amount of cancellation to the mic. In one instance I did see a tangible effect on an spl test, though admittedly many other times the effect was always negligible. That one instance may have had other stuff going on... It was a pretty desperate day of DB drags to eak out an extra .3 of a DB to beat out my buddies tahoe.... I did it, but i cooked the sub in the process.... :(

Hey quick question I bought these from parts express to freshen up some 25 yo Kenwood 10" wedge truck speakers,, Ive never bought cheapie drivers like this but figured hey $11 pffft dirt cheap and have good reviews whatever i can't go wrong... well I think maby I was wrong? They had them listed as full range woofer saying "great for a party speaker" and in reviews people said they were using them as regular speaker woofers and worked great, I see u are using them as subs, and when I opened them they say "subwoofer" on the dust cap... Also the truck boxs is ported and they sound fluttery sounding and just plain awful, but if I cover the port they smooth out ok... What gives, are they not like ported enclosures...I wanted them as a full range speaker in my pickup to go with my fosgate sub for little more sound, but now I'm wondering how well they will even work as a full range...

Because the enclosure is undersized that's the reason it was short of 150db mark. Remove those 4 subwoofers and put them in the new sealed box of the same size. Definitely two sealed boxes will produce more SPL.
