could this work?

yeah ppl i have a b2500 Mazda pickup and i want to put in 4 1510 dd subs. each sub requires 1.5 cubic ft of space and the total space i have available is 6.3 cubic ft is this cutting it to close? or could it work

[doublestenns]

when u say 6.3 have you factored in wood thickness and port displacement
of so it should work

in a case of a van, you can go two routes-

1. big port, big box - average 2cuft per speaker, after displacements

2. small port, high compression - average 1.6cuft per speaker after displacements

the correct box will lie in the acoustics of your vehicle

imo, in a case like this, opt for 2 higher end subs, same power with a well designed box, and go strong

recommened higher end lines(given budget of $2500 per sub,ie price of 2 1510s)

i understand what you say south side . but 4 subs will look real cool in the back of my van and i think 4 10" subs will beat 2 10" subs. going with the fact that both boxed a built to spec and mainly because of cone surface area correct me if i'm wrong i'm new to this.

[- Rovin's car audio -]

more cone area doesnt always necessarily mean better

2 10s in proper cuft & port with sufficient power will give 4 10s in a undersized box a run

how cooler wud it be if a guy comes with 2 subs & beats ur 4 , i like d "less is more" theory

if space is limited u cud even compromise & do 3 10s comfortably fit rather than squeeze in 4 ...

[southside connections]

surface area is one thing, but whats the point of fighting to fit 4 lower powered 10's in an undersized box, versus 2 higher powered 10's in a proper box, when the 2 10's can beat the 4?

if you would like proof come and make yourself available, i will be glad to give a demo of 1 10

or two 12"s...
