Hello,
I currently have 2 RL-I12 dual 4 ohm subs that i have been using in my truck for almost 4 years or so. These are one of the orginals with no logo on them. I am now thinking about using them in my home theater. I would like to build sealed boxes for them or a slot/ported box like the one for those infities that have been going on. I plan on running a external amp like a Berhinger EP2500 or something similar that can provide power in 2 ohm or 8 ohm because that is the 2 wirring choices i would have with these being dual 4 ohm. Probally go with something in the 8 ohm range because that would be less stress on the amp. I have been using the WinISD program and i am a bit confussed with it. I play around with the box size and it says a 20x20x20 sealed box would give me roughly 32hz. I would like to stay around this size or go smaller if possible.
I currently am running a Phase Technology Octave 1.0 15 inch sub and a Velodyne VX-10. I was originally planning on building another 15 inch and adding a plate amp. But now i am pondering this idea.
Any ideas on box size?
Would it be worth it to even use these subs in home theater?
Should i just go with my first idea and get a 15 inch sub from PE and plate amp.
Thank you
