- When building a custom car audio system an aftermarket subwoofer is a MUST. But it can be a challenge to pick a subwoofer when so many different options and sizes are available. What size subwoofer should we get? How many voice coils? 4 ohm or 2 ohm? Will the subwoofer be better in a ported or sealed box? In this video we look at the "Do's and Don'ts" for choosing a car audio subwoofer!

Facts
i vote we call everything 'walmart watts' except for RMS. maybe then people will get it.
Best comment I've read in 2021.
As an former tech, I can tell Wal-Mart watts from what can be reported as RMS most of the time. There's a certain build quality required in high current capable amps. Anything worth buying is worth researching.
Wish watts seems more fitting
Hello I need help please somebody help me. I want to upgrade my factory sound on my 23 vw Taos but the person couldnât take the dashboard apart or open it because he couldnât unclip it and didnât want to break it, please I need to upgrade itâs driving me crazy thanks
@@reyeselizabeth8948 then pay a professional....
I knew none of this when I built my own dual subs and wired my 1986 Honda Civic Si back in 86. I just wanted more bass and louder volume. It's a miracle I didn't blow my car up!
đđ€Łđ€Ł
Thank you so much for this very simplified video. After 3 decades I finally know what Ohms are and understand Impedance. I subscribed and look forward to gaining more understanding so I can build my garage sound system.
Thank you for taking the time to put something like this together!
This is an excellent introductory primer and hopefully you have helped many of those who are new to the hobby from going to their retailer and just buying the loudest, most expensive subwoofer system they offer. The time you spend in planning your build, in learning the things you need to know about to make a good decision about what direction you plan to take and which piece(s) of gear will best get you there within the budget available to you will be rewarded later on with a superior system and, most likely, less money wasted on poor combinations of components.
Everyone needs to know these basics! Great video
Back in the 90âs we called the âcompany rated powerâ âI.L.S. POWERâ (if lightening strikes) when we read the back of the box! Great vids!
Um dang I watched this video and I'm thoroughly impressed with the knowledge this guy has. I want a box 2 12 inch subs and an amp for under the back seats of my 2004 f150
Poop! I already chose my subs! Now I need a Do's and Don'ts video on building a time machine
Do NOT buy your flux capacitor from Wish.
@@mattrondeau7466 Dude....How did you know?đ
Iâm glad I found this channel! Helped me alot to figure out that my 360W 10â hideaway sub has the same amount of bass or just a little less then my mums VX that has a 12â sub and 6x9s being run on 2 800w amps and a 1000w amp.
This is exactly what I'm going to with my next installation.. Woofer and amp with good efficiency. Right size woofer with right size box. No more issues with car electrics.
I have a Memphis 6.5 Mojo under the back seat. I built a ported box using a box calculator, I have a audio pipe 2200w amp not sure the rms. But its plenty, with a good sound with the rest of my components. Turned up, my sps has hit 124 which is pretty impressive for a 6.5 now I know they're not exactly have the best rating that I love it.
The simple explanations, and plain english are much appreciated. I usually find more discouraging frustration. Three long paragraphs full of math and theory, then a short one that leaves ya more confused. Ya know the ones, that just as well be hieroglyphics.
This video was very informative. Solid content! How would I determine the right size powered subwoofer such as watts rms that will pair well with my car speakers? I have 4 55 watt rms infinity speakers with an amp pushing 75 watts per channel.
Loved watching your training videos for audio control at Best Buy! Got paid to watch caf!
I was literally looking this up today, good job on updating the old video!
I've had similar videos but first time focusing on dos and donts for subs đ
@@CarAudioFabrication whoops, my apologizes
@@CarAudioFabrication keep up the great work!
I am a fan of fine and aggressive music since I assembled my first mazda rx-7 and I put some chrome rings on it, Momo brand, and you are a tough one installing and combining car music systems đ„đđđŻđȘ

Thanks for the great content keep up the great work
I have done the same I have my license suspended for the last two years and therefore Iâm not been driving but Iâll be back on the road any day now and Iâve been binge watching car audio fabrication and planning my new car install.
Iâve been building speaker boxes for the last two years now to occupy my time and Iâve gotten pretty good at it and most of my success is thanks directly to this channel!
In the mid 1990's i did my homework and bought my first subwoofer.I bought a JL Audio 12W6 and i had it wired into 3 ohms in a sealed box and used a GENESIS Dual Mono at low gain to power it.The sound was musical,loud and very tight and i have not had to buy another sub and both the amp and subwoofer are still in use now! The JL needed to have its foam replaced but its been an amazing sub.I have just bought a car with a Bose system which has 2 'free air' (fires into the trunk) subs and they are loud but sound totally fluffy and uncontrolled....sealed enclosure anytime.
Genesis uk amps awesome
Most cars I owned had jl subs. 3 12w6 on Fosgate bd1500.1. It's life changing. Nothing else can compare. Sealed for the win
@@daviddeatherage4219 I had 4 x 15w6 in a sealed enclosure running off a huge class A/B Hifonics amp (forgot which one it was) and since then ive been forever trying to chase that sound quality. I recently got back into car audio after nearly 20 years and went with the JL 13W7 in a ported enclosure and HD1200/1 amp and im quite disappointed as its just not quite what I expected. Now im thinking of selling the 13W7 and replace with 3 x 12" more efficient subs
@@B15SDMDESIGNS I've always ran hifonics Zeus love em. But I am in love with 13w3s three of those put serious stretch marks in paint on quarter panels.
JL audio are jerks. I fell super in love with hs boyfriend. I had never had my skeleton shook as hard as his 2 12". No treble fancy stuff but the system blew my panties off.

Thanks, I used Crutchfield in the 80's, I just went on just for information and they couldn't recommend a whole system for my porsche. So I'm heading to my local professional auto system. đ€ Nonetheless great info.
I appreciate your video. I have some homework to do. Thank you Angel from The Bay
Thanks for the info bro.
Dude, it felt pretty advanced to me . đ€„đ„Žđ€. I Think if I watch enough of your videos, Iâll get a plan together. Not a lot of space in a 90âs air cooled Porsche 911.
I know you acknowledged this video as being a bit more basic for entry level, but I consider it to be a good refresher for those who "think" they are experts. IMO the Ohms law math stuff is pretty fun to do, I've done it for two personal projects, thanks for the info Bro :-)
yup thats me. this channel is a whole ass humble pie for me and reminds me i have a good bit more to learn for professional installs and good and clean work. im not cocky or anything its just sometimes i feel i know enough to get by, but then i watch this channel and i instantly rethink that đ€Ł i love learning this stuff so its okay đ
I swear people who do math for fun are a different breed
You donât need a high output alt unless your just running 10k watts going full tilt non stop! Just do what I did get you a giant XP3000 battery or two and some good double runs of ofc and a cheap charger and give your stock alt a break every now and then charging them and it works great. I got DC audio 2k and 175.4 and my lights never dim and my voltage never drops below 13.4! I donât know how my stock alt is tiny but it works has for years now. 105k miles later and itâs all still going strong! I did replace my stock battery and changed Alt once but it was just due nothing to do with the system! Iâm sure it shortened itâs life some but it still lasted 190k miles! Yea I always add batteryâs till my voltage stops dropping but I never been over 400amps in a car either! But like I said 5-10k you might need one just to keep all the big batteryâs charged but I bet I could do 5k daily and get by with stock alt long as I got plenty of reserve battery power.
I'm trying to put together a Boss Triple 10 incher set. I hope my ported box and subs are a perfectly fine combination.
Hey bro this is the first time am seeing your channel and I learn alot from you. I have a 2011hunda civic and I want to know what is the right sobufer and power amp should .do l have to change the stock radio in my car?
Mark, what computer programs do you like for designing subwoofer boxes and speaker adapters?
Back in the late 90s / early 2000s I had 4 infinity perfect 12s in a Toyota Celica, 2000w rms, capacitor, built custom enclosures, removed the rear seat and built a ported wall with two 8 inch subs on it as well. Yes, it was loud and rattled all the sheet metal on that car, no matter how much dynamat I installed đ
.... Now I'm an old fart missing the old days, a buddy gave me a powered RF punch all in one. Takes up hardly any space and it still HITS! I would even have to say if sounds cleaner than my old system, which was way more moving air than that small space could handle
Hey I have a Toyota celica.. donât give me any ideas now đ lol
@@interstellarM81 oh you should totally do it đ I had the long nosed 90s Celica
I'm 57, my car is rigged from 90's stuff. Of course JL audio control and soundstream. Enjoy it, especially summer.
I chose and built a 5 inch subwoofer for my 50w x 2 + 100 w subwoofer in my 1986 Porsche 944. sounds perfect for that car.
A whole 5" !! Holy smokes man! Now don't go blowing out your windshield
Usually I pay someone to do all this for me and with my budget Iâm never happy but since Iâve been subscribed I have the flexibility of doing things on my own and saving money in doing so. This is the first time in 20 years that I have the sound I been wanting. Your video are great, thank you.
Do it yourself! I'm a 44 yr old chick who had to undo electrical damage to a 20 yr old vehicle.
No power to any audio. Some man said you can't run wires though the Firewall. Hey see that anaconda red power wire running there? I Did that and your shop has damaged my truck "he screamed you can't do that". Oh I did that 20 yrs ago.
This channel is advanced for me. I draw from college physics knowledge. Yeah I graded homework and labs. So I am a very academic person.
It makes me happy to see ppl rob me. They don't know they are gonna get a nice good shock from a cap. I just increased the power of things stolen.
Don't be afraid to try it. My Mentor would say "if you didn't do it right nothing happens. Still not going keep working. 20 retries probably 200 then you reconfig and it slaps.
the first point is something hard to explain but for my car i say that is the system that i want and when i need more space the chairs must go and so on
I want the Fi Neo 3.5 12 inch sub because I want a lot of bass but, with very high sound quality. Get a 2000 watt 1 ohm amp and calibrate it to 1750 watts. Stock alternator, 0 gauge big 3, and build a custom sealed enclosure that fits like glove underneath the metal beam that is below the parcel shelf of my 2015 Camry.
Whatâs your opinion on running 1 vs. 2 ohms in a subwoofer amplifier? 1 obviously puts the most strain on the amp but provides more power usually. But twice the power is needed to raise volume by only 3 dB. So clearly diminishing returns comes into play with respect to amplifier wattage. I feel like when the difference is 700 vs 500 Watts at 1 and 2 ohms respectively for example, the smarter choice is to run at 2 ohms for the longevity of your amplifier.
1 vs 2 only depends on Amp and can it handle it. Any time you drop ohms you increase watts less ohms more power but Only if the Amp can do 1 ohm
I have 2 12 inch subs running 1,200 watts rms in a 2005 f-150, itâs a super crew cab so it has enough space to maybe even have 15âs
Feeling good about my dual IDMAX 12's
Awesome subs
4:44 I learned that the hard way... I had a top of the line SQ sound system with a Diamond Audio 800 wrms sub, powered by a 600 wrms amp, but i could never pushed it as far as it could go. And to make matters worse, it was a class AB amp, so less efficient than a class D... Nevertheless, it still sounded great.
my class AB 90's soundstream sounded much better than the amps today. Much of the subs today are better though.
My current build is overkill, but it's for SQL. I'm running 2 Fi Audio Q 18s and I love the way it sounds. They're in a 12.5 cubic foot box tuned to 31hz.
That isnt SQL lol
@@TylerTheBassCreator its also not overkill. its never enough bass damn it!!đ
My old school Fosgate 1100a2 and 3(12)HX3 from 1999 still sounds great
My son got the new Fosgate âïžđ€ I now it has more power than mine but don't hit harder than mine. I'v make my own boxes
sense 1993 so I kinda know what I'm doing.
AMP's got more power Now then Old.
Highly considering purchasing a powered sub system for my next vehicle. Cerwin Vega hopefully in my future.đ
i have there 7 band eq its freaking amazing
hi..
love your cannel and thanks for the video .
can you recommend me a slim sub for my miata ?
looking for the mid betwin quality and budget, really curios to hear you opinion
i have JBL600 amp i thought about hooking JBL home sub but the OM thing, dont know about it
What are your views on the JBL Basspro hub 11 VS CERWIN Vega 12 which is also a hub mount ? Just woundering if you have any opions on them and which might be a better choice for the same price factor ! Thanks

Can you do some review/test on some skar subs? The sdr10 and 12âs. Not sure how they compare to like rockford P3D2 or other models
Man I miss my JL Audio 12w0 I had in the early 2000âs.
My son is almost old enough to drive and heâs going to get a surprise in his first car. Unfortunately JL is not available in my country so Rockford Fosgate Punch 12 will have to do.
I subscribed and Like and Comment,
Question what you think I should get for a good price on a 2018 Escalade Boss Man??
Over all leaving out budget what powers underseat subwoofer would you go for???
I have a civic exl 2016 with rear deck coaxial db652+ and i plan to put 6502 components for the pillar speakers and the door subs, whatâs the best in line amp option for this setup? Or how could i properly run an amp in this car with a factory head unit?
Great videos, I haven't done any audio upgrades in about a decade last system I had was 2 JL W6 10" paired with a Brutus. I recently got a Audi A4 2001 and I'm putting a deck and components in it, also a sub and amp. Was curious if I'm gonna kill my alternator? I got a 12" Scar EVL 2500w and a HIPhonics Zeus 2225.1 Theta, and a Rockville 50 Farad Hybrid LED Car Capacitor w/Dual Meters to hopefully help with my power issue. Anyhelp is super appreciated đ, thanks for reading.

Thanks again for reading.
JL is the best hands down I have 10inch wo like the first version of them 100 watts and it slams
@CarAudioFabrication I would like to have a heart to heart conversation regarding amp upgrading vs adding batteries. Maybe it's a culture thing, but here upgrading an alternator is rare to say the least because it offers no advatages when compared to having adittional batteries to even the load.
Bro, I have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to car audio. I've been watching your vids and I think I'm marginally more understanding of at least the basics. But I know way more than I ever thought went into the "thump" of car audio. Fuck it I'm saying thanks, that's all!
What would you recommend for a good sound quality sub. Been thinking of going with a JL Audio in a sealed box either a 10" or 12" Is there a sub and box you can recommend?
My mercedes is getting 4Ă c2650x doors.
2 Ă 10tw1 in a custom box for the c class and 2Ă 300w Orion amps for the box and 200w amp also Orion for the midrange doors.
I'm leaving the stock Harman kardon rear sub and center channel in the dash.
The tweeters I'll probably leave HK or switch to a JL 100rms set of tweeters .
I'm upgrading the head unit to a Decent Kenwood and would like an old school actual 20 ban equalizer.
Was going to go with 2Ă 12" JL in a custom box but think 10s should be more then sufficient and the 10tw1 is a thin sub so the box doesn't have to be deep in the trunk and still thump hard .
Debating if it gets a forward facing box or old-school rear facing.
I was hoping you would talk about choosing a sub for in cab or in trunk.
Im just trying to replace the factory speakers in my 2019 jeep renegade and get an android 12 stereo head. Do I really need a sub or will the door speakers be sufficient enough base for everyday casual listening? And if I do need a sub how small can I go so it doesnât take up much space? Do under the seat type subs any good? Doesnât seem to have enough airflow
What would you recommend for door subwoofers for a 2002 buick lesabre?? I only say that to keep most of my trunk space
I actually prefer powered subs for budget systems. If you just slap an 800w sub on a factory system it's going to completely overpower it and all you will hear is bass. A 150w powered sub stuffed under a seat is going to do a much better job filling things out. You're right on there.
Yea if u use a 1990s cat now a days new cars have decent speakers
â @@jaygarcia6388no new car has decent speakers đ
HI,
should i put a 3 way speaker in the front or rear of my car? or should i just get 2 way speakers for the front and rear?
I got a 10â JL TW3-D4 itâs shallow mount so i figured it would be good under my back seat. I also got the JL JD500/1 amp. Itâs in a sealed box firing down. I got the JL cage to protect it. I wired them to 2ohms to get the full 500W but the sub can only handle 400W RMS so I was told to keep the gain down a bit. Thankfully the amp has a red light telling me if itâs clipping. I turned my volume up to where my door speakers started to distort and then turned it down 2 notches. So 32 is my max volume, I then play a bunch of high bass songs and let them run through. If any of them made that red light come on I turned it down a bit. I think I have it where it needs to be but Iâm still scared. I donât want to blow that sub. I did the ohms x power (800) then I got the square root 28.28 and set the gain to that but it would still clip on certain songs. I have an oscilloscope but Iâm not really sure how to use it đ Iâm in a pickle man and I donât know what to do. Does anyone have any advice for this amateur? I set the low pass filter to 80. And the bass boost is at like +11.. I have a remote knob on the way so I can turn it down or up thats why I love that clipping light but Iâm still scared Iâm going to blow it. I have a pioneer DMH-WT3800NEX head unit. Itâs all in a 2011 Sierra Ext cab under the back seat.
Is there anything I can do to make it better or protect is more?
I mean I got it all working, steering wheel controls work, blinker/warning chimes work (they come through the radio in this truck). The amp and sub sounds great it smelled a little bit when I first got on it but I read that was normal and it went away after 5 mins.
All fine except the bass boost, turn that off or down.
Spent 700$ on skar 10inch sub,
1500 to 1800 sub, got a box they recommend. 2000 watt to 2800 watt amp. 2000 watt cable and amp kits. 200 amp fuse so I overbuilt everything against the sub
I'm trying to understand car audio. For the subwoofer, I have a '93 Miata and I'd like to put one in the car. I'm willing to do custom work. Often times, I see people placing them in the trunk. But with it being in the trunk, isn't it completely closed off from hearing it? Or is the purpose of a subwoofer and its low frequencies is to create vibrations? Aside from that, I have aftermarket 4x6" Polk db462 speakers in the headrest enclosure (2 in each headrest). In addition to that, I have a Kenwood coaxial speaker in each of the doors. Lastly, I had also installed a Panasonic CQ VX5500 (to match a retro aesthetic interior). I'm wondering where to go from here.
I need a perfect fit for my Kia Stinger Back left trunk area. i hate losing space so looking at 8inches in me. No stealth boxes were made for my vehicle
8:51
I noticed one popular company state to not mount amps on sub boxes. So it's only okay to do so if the rms is low?
This is a request for recommendations if I may. I have a 2022 lexus gx460 with the mark Levinson audio . This system plays plenty loud and clean for me however it does lack some in the low end bass department. What possible add on devices , amp and sub might this community recommend to complement and replace only my existing subwoofer while ideally keeping all of my cargo space free? I'm certainly open to modify my panels to accommodate a more capable sub. Just want to know what to expect in terms of the best possible integration. Hopefully not too complicated to integrate properly lol. Any recommendations are very much appreciated.
So for the cubic foot equation. What if I'm making a wedge box. Like I have 16 inches in front and 5 in the back and it's 54 inch wide 14 deep? How would one come up with it?
I have a pair old school AudioBahn 15â subs that are 6ohm. Just exactly how should I wire them up. Would running a amp that is rated down to 2ohm in 3ohm work ok?
I have Mazda B2200 Single cab. looking in to putting some Subs in it. which ones would be the best for the small space I have?
JL vs audiofrog what's your thoughts? For a jeep wrangler sound system build.
im looking to recreate the strong tight punch like at concerts from kick drums. what should i look for ?
I want something like it helps Voice and bass more. Any recommendations?
What system would you recommend for a 2015 Honda Accord? Been years since I had systems in my car and I want something that sounds clean but also bumps. Thanks!
Im looking to get the best audio quality and dont need any sort of spl at all. What type of subs would do that task at a mid-budget price point? I had a DD audio 600Wrms 12" before, but it was harsh and not good sounding
I have a 18 in my sedan in a ported box. Would your recommend I just say screw it and wall the trunk and drop 2 in
I need some advice I have six P3 12s Rockford Fosgate Subs and what would be a good cheap amp to power those
I to put about 2 or 3 10' sub in my 07 4runner. Which is better on power requirement, the Kicker baric L7 vs JL audio???
So I have a FORD escape itâs a 2012 Limited. So I guess that it has a factory subwoofer and amp. Okay. So my question is how can I replace the factory equipment with aftermarket equipment and I want to use a in line converter can you please help me figure out what I need to do ??
THANK YOU đ
Quick question, There is a way to find out the sound out put from a radio that do not have the diagram for the sound harness?
Have y'all built a underseat box 10" subs for a 2022 frontier crew cab?
Is the Rockville SS8P good for rock music? Would like some more kick and punch
What would I need to shake the foundations of buildings when putting a system together for a 2019 ram 1500 truck?
Always use a couple 10s or 1 12 that'll handle at least 2000 watts rms, an amp no less than 2500 rms & you'll get the bass you want. Build the box exactly or barely larger than than the sub specs ported to anywhere between 40-30 hz & build the rest of the system around that. You'll be happy & you won't keep trying all kinds of different subs & boxes. These subs today behave correctly when powered at their rms or a few hundred watts more
@icon Actually he is. I mean, he's just being a goof.
Hi kindly assist with advise, i have a 10inch JBL shallow mount sub club ws2100. how big the encloser must be and the amp required for that sub
I have a question I just finished my system and my subs are 2 jbl 12s running around 150 each (thatâs the output but rms is 250 but I under delivered so I didnât blow them) but anyways 2 jbls 250 each and Iâm looking at future installs and I canât decide if I wanna go Rockford or kicker I would most likely go with 2 12s again because Rockford is a classic and supposedly very reliable but I heard kicker is like the new Rockford any suggestions as to what to choose
I love my Kicker 10 inch powered sub! It fills my Camry with bass and isn't too much on the ears or the wallet

Look at the Dayton audio stuff. They have kickass subs
