I have an older reg cab I did a center console in and it's down pretty good so guess I'm going to have to go that route on this truck to. I'm kinda of hesitant on skar bc I did 2 sundown x 12s in a blow through for a friend and we tried a SK3500 for all of 2 mins then the protect came on and wouldn't go off. So he decided to run 2 t1500 bdcps and it's gets down. I see great reviews on them so maybe we just got that one bad one idk.

@Paul Revere hey man .. I feel your pain. My first attempt was identical to yours; 2 of these 8” on an rp-1200.1 in a sealed box (one big chamber shared by both subs) .. literally the subs would go FULL excursion and there would be barely any bass .. was disappointed. Then, I cut a 3” hole in each side of the box (against each rear passenger door) and secured an 18” long PVC tube from Lowe’s as my port and BOOM it woke up soooo much. Hit pretty hard considering what the simple setup was, but the ports were noisy and I will say generally sub par acoustical feedback. Then, I routed the openings on the box with a nice large radius on each one (where I had cut the ports ) and then stuffed the box with polyfil and the system was totally transformed! So my advice is to either A) add some polyfil and make your own ports or B) add some polyfil and order a couple of these Precision Port 3 Inch Flared Port Tube Kit www.amazon.com/dp/B0002ZPR4W/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_Q98NBF5HPE5QS59QQT30

@srtdoff01

123joker187 - hey bud. 1 ohm straight up works an amp and especially when played for long duration. I am running the 2000.1D @ 1 ohm now and after a few minutes with it cranked (behind the seats so no airflow) it gets crazy hot ... and that's with a sufficient alternator and all 0 gauge wire. An interesting thing to consider is the amount of power lost due to heat at 1 ohm vs the usable power at 2 ohm. You should try at 2 ohm for extended period of time and see what the difference in heat is. I feel that it makes more sense to "grow" your system (use larger amp but run at 2 ohm or 4 ohm) compared to trying to crank the shit out of a smaller amp. Just my 2 cents. I tuned my LC2i based off guidance from this video ... kzitem.info/news/bejne/mXxqu6lvpYmUeYo ... I suggest to watch the whole video. Its very informative and provides a couple tuning options based on your specific setup.

Ok, I need to pick your brain. Firstly, badass setup. I have a 2020 F-150 Lariat, so same space and I'm looking to do mine right. I have read most if not all the comments and I won't be asking the same questions everyone else has. That being said, I am concerned about the available volume vs what the subs need/want. Skar says those VD-8s like to have 0.75 cuft each. Based on my calculations of your dimensions and after port and sub displacement, your box comes out to ~1.5 cuft total/0.375 cuft each sub. I wonder if they are suffering from having an undersized box. I do see how your new 2500 amp would move them better and potentially compensate but I'm also wondering if it would sound better having 2 VD-8s or 2 EVL-65 because they only need 1.5 cuft and 1.2 cuft respectively.
@srtdoff01
2 жыл бұрын
Hey Manuel! I think your calculations are pretty close. Preceding this video, I actually started with only 2 VD-8 subs in the same size box on the 1200.1 amp, but it felt like the subs were stretching past their comfort zone regarding physical displacement. It was a nice setup (for a week haha) but I wanted more. I also really liked the look of 4x 8” so decided to switch it up. Considering the two setups, I believe the 4x feel louder and are definitely punchier than the 2x setup. I won’t disagree that the 4x setup is probably choking a little … I did stuff this current setup with a fair amount of polyfil which although muffled the overall output, it also really cleaned the response of the speakers up. If I were to do a 2x setup, I wouldn’t use the VD-8s … they don’t feel rugged when actually given proper air volume compared to the construction of something like the EVL.

@@srtdoff01 Thank you for getting back to me. I see what you're saying and I'm thinking of maybe doing a 2x EVL-8 D2 build. I've been playing around with several box/volume/port calculators and I'm thinking 2 of these would be a happy medium between available space and power. The EVL-8s will probably want more than 1.5 but I think it can work with the SKV2-2500 and some poly-fil. I want to maximize that space and not go crazy with lift kits or nothing like that and definitely NOT looking to bust my windshield. On a different note, I am also planning on replacing all of the speakers with some TX65's and TX65c's. Did you replace yours and what did you do about the little center speaker in the dash?

Just a question, why do people lower ohms? Or heighten them? Is heightening them safer for the subs or amp?
@wickedwitt04
3 жыл бұрын
Higher impedance filters out unnecessary noise better, which is almost completely unnecessary on sub bass as our ears aren't all that sensitive to those frequencies to begin with. It is far easier to create more power at lower impedance, therefore you often see larger amps stable to 1ohms. There really is no intrinsic "better" impedance. If the source is clean, and no over-level clipping is introduced by driving the gain too high, all a lower impedance means is more power. Typically, with your mids/highs, people stay above 2ohms and preferably above 4ohms. Music is dynamic, and you often only see the wired impedance on a certain frequency. As you move above and below that frequency impedance will rise due to many factors and you can see upwards of 100ohms of resistance.
