Re: What subs would be an upgrade to OA 18s?

i don't think the decision on the port type has been decided upon yet.
that's why i did 5 6" areos in the drawing just to show a perspective
Based has started playing with sketchup so maybe he'll have something

that's the reason for posting the pics so that others can drop some info and suggestions.
so i wouldn't think of that as being a dick
thanx for taking the time to look in and make suggestions

I think I'll have about 14 cubes after port, and I'm inverting subs so I don't have to worry about the displacement from them.

I figured you only had 17" depth because the seats would be in front of the box.

No I'm doing 4 lol

Re: What subs would be an upgrade to OA 18s?

Also, 3 D2's will wire to 1.33ohm or 0.33. Daily or burps if you will.

I got dvc 2 ohms so I don't think I can go to 0.5 but it's whatever. The aq will do around 2400 at 1 ohm at 14.4 which is what I'm predicting to stay at.
