Ok well I always get over anxious and post a thread before I even start on a project, so here is my newest one that's happening to the hoe lol.

It's gonna be 2 CVR 15's (1k rms total) in a 4th order bandpass box, built by me. This is my first build, so I had the box designed by a pro, galamonkey. Should be pretty sick. He made a cutsheet and is helping me with everything, I just gotta build it.

These are gonna be replacing the 2 cvr 12's in a ****** generic ported box I have right now. They just aren't cutting it for me, and my amp is barely over half gain. Also I have not a single bit of dimming with my lights, so im almost certain my alternator can handle this.

Here is the box design he came up for me that will fit perfectly in the back of my tahoe:

Ordering the 2 15's tomorrow, so I should have this started by the end of the week. I'll keep you guys updated.

Having a ******* hard time trying to find a couple CVR 15's in a dual 2 ohm AND in the discontinued 07 model. There are a ton of 4 ohm ones out there but I can't seem to find any 2 ohms. There's also the 2010 model in the 2 ohm but il be damned if im gonna pay $250 PER sub...

Might end up having to go with RE or DC subs.

the CVX handle up too 1000 watts, doesnt mean you have to feed them 1000 watts.
I have a Solo Classic 10" sealed of 420 watts...just because it can handle it, doesnt mean you need to take it there to work.

But if im not mistaken, if you underpower a sub THAT much it won't perform good at all. Not too mention it would kind of be a waste of money you know?
