solo x 18" box, i need help

alright, anybody know how much air space, so on and yadda yadda i would need for one of these bad boys? i'm gonna port it out, but i still don't know exactly what hertz to tune it to and so on and so forth. any help would be appreciated. thanks guys.

well you can tune it to whatever you want to....as for airspace.......lol its going to require quite a bit.

well, i've got the box plans drawed up, except for the mounting depth and the porting. it's gonna take up my whole back section. i'm going with 35" from tub to tub so it'l be snug, and 40" front front to back so i'll have a little space to mount my amps. i already know it's going to take 2 sheets of 4x8 mdf for me to pull this off, so everyone pray for me.

I'm getting a design built up for ya via bass box pro.


Im thinkin around 8 cubes might do fine for this woofer. but I'll research it more for ya

alright jon, it's been like two hours, where's the plans? i'm drunk as **** and i'd love to know how to build this pos. 

.............im lazy.......... bear with me  

wow, that things a monster, what kinda power plant(s) you got runnin that?

well, if i had thought about getting the xx goliath and just use that one amp, but two zx2500.1's sounds better to me. one per voice coil. and theyre about 800 dollars where the xx goliath is aobut 550.

the kicker amp is only 2 ohm stable. keep that in mind

bah, screw that then. i'm not gonna pay 800+ dollars for just a 2 ohm stable amp.

this one seems very similar to the 2500.1, and its cheaper and 1 ohm stable. Damn sexy too, gotta love plexi

i have had two of these and they are monsters.  not bad price either.

what kind of subs are you throwing them to?

and that alphasonic amp is only half of what i need. looks perdy, though. i was wanting one amp with about 4k-5k watts so i could just do one amp and save some money.

thrown those amps at an APXX 18, and my Treo SSX 18.

welllll, i'm thinking about turning to ebay to buy my amp. the xx goliaths aren't but like 550 bucks on there and eveyrwhere you go it's 12 and 1500 dollars.buuut, i guess you get what you pay for, lol.

Hillbilly's 18 is bananas! He got that King Kong in da' trunk! Actually, King Kong might be kinda small and timid compared to hillbilly's 18!

have you ever seen a solo x 18"? those are 100 f'n pounds man. they are huge.

yea. mine is small at only 70 pounds.

sorry about the crappy pics. i broke that camera right after that.  On purpose too.

let me get my box built and i'll take pics of all the pretty stuff. i was also thinking about some kick panels, but i have nooooo idea how to fiberglass.

fiberglassing isnt that tough really. just very stinky.


Resin bleh. gave me a horrible headache but yea. Pat. I want that treo

lol

that soundsteam says 1800 and 3500 watts both at 4 ohms????? must be a miss-print.....lol i think my R's are 18lbs each, pretty tiny compared to the big boys
maybe its time for a 15" 9500
