whats the best size sub to put in a mini boot?

a 10"
a 12"
a pair of 10"s?

[Jordie]

10 or 12. Kane^ told me u can fit a 8" free air sub in the shelf, might see if i got any space left. else i am getting a 10 or 12 in right hand side (opposite tank)

[Madmax]

single ten in a box, well amped

[Dom]

follow on with being well amped, what set up?

[Madmax]

well it all depends on the ratings of the particular sub you want in there, they all run at different RMS's. Get one with a reasonable RMS above 350, and match the Amp to that.


RMS - Root Means Squared

i was told my madmax i think if your going to lisen to R&B and rap stuf get a 12" if your going to be lisning to dace/trace etc get a 10"

[Jordie]

what about rock / punk / heavy alternative music?

[Madmax]

10 inch for rock and alternative, its much like dance music in a way, theres the bass drum beat which is fast and punchy, so 10 is fine, thats what ive got in mine anyway. i listen to anything.

What about four 8" subs. Sound great.

i do like your arrangement but i need some boot space as well.


what sub you get if you like all music? R&B, Jazz, Rock etc

that mini still begins to suprise me more and more

what sort of sound do 8" subs give out? what music are they best suited for?

[TimS]

the smaller the sub the punchier the bass will be! this is due to the acceleration of the cone as it has less air to move.

so basically if u just wana go boom boom boom then a single 12" will do the job where as personally listening to mainly alternative and dance music is go for a long throw fairly powerfull 10" and the make ure the box is the right size for it to maximise its perfiormance thsi way u can get deep bass but keep the punch... the only downfall is they are quite expensive

do u think there is much of a chance of fitting a 15inch sub in a mini boot?
