Love the system you don’t see many 5 subs setups, it’s pretty cool when people get a chance to hear the system and they’re astonished to know that it’s only 6.5 inch subs.
Exactly. I was really surprised when I first heard it. In the video, that really is me hearing it for the first time. This is a game changer for me. Could you Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
I have a 6x 8” underseat laying in my tundra, it’s hitting 143,9 db. Before that had a 4x 6.5” that dit 137,8. So this looks pretty accurate 👍🏻 nice video!
I saw a common mistake when you were measuring the surface area of the subs. You want to look at the T/S parameters for the Sd. This is the surface area that is moving which is the cone and half the surround. Or you could measure the diameter from the top (middle) of each surround. The diameter of the cone is rigid, but the thickness of the surround can greatly effect the moving area. The inner edge of the surround is moving with the cone while the outer edge does not move at all. Some quick math says that half the surround thickness can be considered part of the moving area. The Meso 6.5" Sd was 133cm³ (133 x 5 = 665cm³). I looked up a a couple of 15's and it's Sd is roughly 800cm³. So you would need roughly 6 of the Meso 6.5" to get the equivalent surface area. Four of the Meso 8's is about 755cm³ and are easier to wire, but are quite a bit more expensive. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know. Keep up the good work. 👍
Your evaluation is missing one aspect; the cone to surround ratio. If you look at most 15 inch high excursion subwoofers, the cone to surround ratio is nearly identical to that of the MESO65. Whenever a driver achieve, more-than-average mechanical travel; cone area suffers. Great observation. Keep'em coming. 💯
@@BudgetBassHead Sd takes that into effect. Its not missing. Sd is the equivalent piston area of the driver diaphragm. A. Neville Thiele and Richard H. Small were some smart dudes. Lol
If the rest of the family complains about the trunk space, then they can always take or rent another car and you drive your Impala and talk to each other with walkie talkies. Makes sense to me and I'm married. 😁😃 Bass waits for no man.
I just bought 3x CT meso 8s and I have a CT 2000.1 is this enough for my subs? I had this amo to two cerwin vega 12s and I want them hit harder..will it sound harder with the 8s and or no? Anyone?
Did you measure the impedance in the vehicle? How much box rise are you seeing? I'd almost suggest dual 2 ohm drivers to get a wired 0.8 ohm impedance. With box rise I'm sure it will be higher than 1 ohm. Then you can adjust the gain to limit total power. Just a thought.
Question for you. I have a 2011 Chevy Avalanche that I want to add subs to. The only box I've been able to find and fit under my rear seat is the JL Audio CP106LG-W3v3 MicroSub enclosed subwoofer system . Is there another sub enclosure that you would recommend or build with these specs?
Glad you liked it! I felt like my intros should be a bit better than usual. Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
Ok thats soooo cool! Im drinvin a Smart fortwo 451 and i dont want to ruin my little back space with a subwoofer...but want the both...a good sub and the space
You didn't want to run 8 subs? Not that 5 is shabby by any means. But you would get more output and achieve the 1ohm final load. Great video btw. Just my .02
Your math is sound except your missing Xmax. If you're comparing cone displacement you would also need to factor in cone movement. So while you may be matching in cone area you will be lacking in a side-by-side / pump-for-pump of any given 15. This is of course ignoring watts / ohms etc as that doesn't need to factor in to this specific calculation.
Do you have a link for the conplete box build? I tried the software that you've suggested but I cannot seem to get it to work but the trunk in my car (2011 Ford Crown Victoria) is 20 cubic feet so the enclosure should fit easily.
I did not understand your explanation of the wiring of the 5 6 1/2 Meso subs? Do you wire each 4 ohm sub up to 8 ohms first and then wire them in series? I didn’t really get it. Please x-plain
Your taramps can do half ohm all day. Ppl do it non stop. Doing now myself. You'll never see half ohm with impedance rise. Especially with that many of them to
Looks like you have less space now just configure different but like always it's very inexpensive, and on a side note what song did you use for the demo
What do these speakers cost? Please comment back would love to kno. Can you buy them separate or do you got to buy a Set of them that's also my big question please let me know thank you
So what are some opinions on these meso 6.5" subs from anyone reading this? Cuz I just ordered 2 of them to go in my new truck that should be done being built in about a month & a half.... I'm not looking for some spl records or anything but I just wanted to add some bass to my 2024 stock f150 sound system without having to have a massive box that takes up half of all of my back seat of my truck so I went with these 2 meso 6.5" subs cuz they were reasonable price & I went with 2 x D4ohm subs so I could make a 700.1D CT sound monoblock amp work by wiring it at a 1ohm load to make my build as cheap as possible while still hopefully giving a little bit more than what a stock system has in terms of bass.... So just wondering if anyone else has had these little subs & what your thoughts are regarding their abilities & weather or not you think I made an okay decision? Thanks
HEY BUD. ALL CAPS JOE HERE. THESE WILL ALWAYS BE LOUDER FACING THE REAR BUMPER WITH BOX PUSH UP TO REAR OF TRUNK. YOUR STANDING OUT SIDE SET THEN SO THERE FACING YOU STANDING OUTSIDE THAN PULL THE BOX ALL THE WAY TO YOU ALL THE WAY TOWARD YOUR BUMPER THEN CLOSE TRUNK THEN TRUNK ACTS LIKE A HORN AND ITS TWICE AS LOUD AND YOU ALWAYS HAVE THE PORT ON THE SAME SIDE AS WOOFERS FRONT FIRING. SO 4 SUBS ONE PORT THEN IT WILL BE TWICE AS LOUD
Just one thing - the description you gave and the final diagram were for parallel-only or simply parallel wiring, not series-parallel. If you had used four speaks and had two of them connected in parallel X 2 and then connected THOSE pairs in series that'd be series-parallel or parallel-series. I'd prefer them to be alphabetical, butt I wasn't there the day they made the terms, lol. PS---This is a case where they all move in perfect unison, perhaps an advantage of smaller-as-heck subs. For your next project, try a (Holy ....) 18" placed into(?) - (onto?) the top of the cab, with a similar arrangement within. HELL - CoMbINe both. Unnnhhh!!! Enjoyed all the details in your narrative.

What’s the distance your system can be heard from with these compared to other subs like 10’s, 12’s, 15’s? I’m wondering to the sounds match or perform differently.
I haven't yet tuned everything properly, so no distance tests just yet. In the video, that really is me hearing it for the first time. I'm really impressed with the performance. Could you Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
People keep telling me that those don't go low. I keep telling them to send me pic of a clean drug test before they offer an opinion. But now that you've heard them, what's your opinion? Do they hit "dem lowz"?
That concerns the box more than the subs themselves. They'll go low if you build a box that allows them to. Remember, an 8" sub hit over 170db by itself.
@@Raymo2u I know and thanks for verifying. I just get tired of people who don't know anything about the subject giving bad advice about what I should do with my build. I'm either going to do four 10 in CT sounds Meso, four 10 inch Sundown U, or four 10 inch DC Level 4's and mad people have been hating.
I spit my drink out when I saw the rms wattage of that taramp. Maaaaan. Currently building a box for one of these on the trunk shelf of my 89 town car.
i have one 10" JL W3 enclosure specific for my vehicle. i'm wondering if it's worthwhile to replace it with a "truck" box including 2 of these little subs. i may not get the lower frequencies that the 10" puts out.. but it would be louder overall? i have seen 132dB with a similar setup from CT. i have no idea what the W3 puts out tho.
I really love this build. I grew up a bass head in my little honda civic back in the early 90s. I had 2 JL10w1s in a 6th order DP that was great but it literally took 95% of the hatch area. I am and old fart now and have a wife and 2 kids and can't fill the hatch for my SUV(as fun as it WOULD BE) with subs. This is good inspiration. I could see myself some something like this as it would just steal a few vertical inches. I could still use the 'floor' of the hatch for kid stuff, groceries, luggage as you showed! New subscriber, but really enjoying the content. Those little drivers look fun (silly ammounts of xmax) might have to pick a couple just to play with.
Sounds like you understand EXACTLY what I've been going through lately. This build was very fun and I can't wait to share the rest of it. Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
@@BudgetBassHead hey man I really dig what you did with them 6.5s, i just order the 3 way meso set up going in the doors and thinking putting an 8 in in the fire as well and i wanted to put some subs in the back I'm considering making that box to fit my pick up truck since it's a single cab and not a whole lot of room behind the seat I think this would be perfect to duplicate it and have them facing up wards. Any way you'd be willing to share the detentions for a cut list like the spacing for the dividing walls and the port opening. It be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the video. I am very interested in that driver for a home PC speaker 2.1 setup I am looking to build. 1 or 2 of those would be great little sub drivers. If I end up buying them I will amke sure to come back and use your link.
I use one in my civic as a mid woofer with a dsp box is tuned to 60 hz dsp is set to 57-200hz . And a 12 inch ct sounds meso in the trunk . But dam the 6.5 gets down . It knocks my mirror down
If it was me I would have done 8 x 6.5 and made the box like a bench and step, meaning 4 stacked and the bottom extended for the slotted port, but it depends on the budget I guess
the wall that the subs are mounted to looks a little thick, you'll prolly get a lil more output if you counter sink or flush mount the subs to free up the air around the spider more, or just make another thinner wall
Personally, I want with a sealed enclosure with some Skar SVR 10's. My box is much smaller but Im telling you it pounds harder than 3 SVR 8's in a full size ported box. I dont get the same low end but when space is concerned, there's always a trade up.
That's true. My tradeoff is a bit of port noise; because I used less than recommended port area. My gain was cone control. My system could easily damage these little guys, so I'd rather them not move as freely. Do me a solid and Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
Great videos how are these little guys ? I’m thinking about putting 4 of them in my spare tire area its 10” high and about 35” long would this sound better then 1 JL 12”shallow mount 3
brother where you been long time no see and btw the md8000.1 I had 3 at separate times I had each one wired to .67 running at 16.5 volts at time they took it daily my issue I didn't know about at the time was they don't like a lot on input on the rca I was putting in 4 volt they like to be under 2 volts
Now you need another identical box stacked on top of that one, or one big box with another layer lol. Just playing, it would be gnarly but it would be pricy.
I own CT Ozone 2-12s and they are the best tuffest deepest sounding woofers I've ever owned. I've owned Cerwin Vega, Kicker, skar,mtx and these are the best in every category for me. Amazing speakers
I need the space for my family and traveling. This is my daily driver; just trying to keep it bumping 😀. Could you Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
Any reason you chose to mount the woofers upside down?... dope build! can the box be installed vertically with the woofers facing up so you can save more truck space?
@@akura2 No this particular box can not be mounted vertically. But you can redesign it that way if you wanted to. The woofers are upside down by mistake.
Qts will determine range below fs without creating a peak and trough output. High q will need more than vas as net volume tuned below fs to be musical/flat.
That is true. I will share the TS parameters and WinISD drawings in a later video. Meanwhile, Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
They remind me of B2 audio sub designs. As long as you don't overpower it, should sound great. Could you Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
Have you tried to configure all subs to 1 ohm by connecting two pairs in parallel to achieve two sets of 1 ohm, then connect these two sets of pairs that are 1 ohm in series to get a sub configuration of 4 subs to 2 ohms. lastly use the last sub and wire it down in parallel to 2ohms and then wire your 4 subs which have a net ohm load of 2 ohm to the one sub which is 2ohm to give you a net ohm load of 1 ohms. I am not an expert by any means but all subs will individually wire at 2ohms, though the 5th sub might be over powered if the current split is 50/50. Meaning if the amp provides an arbitrary 5000watts rms, it will split the 2500watts rms to the one sub(5th sub) and then equally slipt the other 2500watts to the 4 subs. If you have the equipment to test this, please do and hopefully share it with us. I love your channel and I got the inspiration to build my very first 6th order box for a 12inch from watching your videos. Keep up the great work!
To answer your first suggestion, I couldn't do that because of what you said. Not all the subs would receive the same power. Glad you were able to build the bandpass; they have amazing bandwidth. By the way, Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
It's easier to manage this way. You can independently remove and add subwoofers without disrupting the entire chain. You can even do live/hot swaps during competitions. Because the impedance would automatically adjust itself.
They are worth it, in my opinion. I was blown away by the performance. I now have some more tuning and crossover adjusting to do. Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
I personally prefer any subwoofer size except 12s. To me, 12s are way too "overrated, overrused and common" because everyone that I know only uses 12s but yet they say they want to be different. Then get an two 24s or 10 6.5s or one 32 lol 😂
This build just kind of blew my mind. Moving the same air as a 15" and still having a flat floor in the trunk for whatever, is awesome. Im hoping you got another video just talking about the box some? I actually just switch cars to one that has a hatchback. I was kind of looking at a down firing sub but the ones I've heard don't hit hard enough. Something like this would be awesome. One you still have the floor but in my case it would be easy to hide from people who want to rip it off since it's so visible. I think you nailed it..
Thanks for the support! I'm actually planning on sharing the plans and build logs with you guys in a future video. I'm currently testing this one and it completely amazes me every time I play it 😀
bro I got to tell you with all respect you are the shit I hear how humble you are and kicking all that knowledge Mann thanks to you I'm into subs now also, I have a f 150 2021 I want to replace all the back sit for a customize a box with 2 15s what do you think any advice thanks KEEP THE GOOD WORK

Are they better then the DB drive G2 6.5" woofer?
Never tried those
What program do you use to build your enclosures?
finally.. we need to exchange some handshakes
I got a question how do you do your power wire like that can you show us how to wire it up
I have 4 Skar 8 inch ix series on a Skar RP 1200
I used to have those subwoofers. They are underrated. Very nice for the price.
@@BudgetBassHead Yes They are, they be having my windows flexin
@@BudgetBassHead I have a 2014 Jeep Cherokee Latitude
Ct sounds Meso’s are some badass subs and love the choice. I bet videos don’t even give that setup justice.
Cool
Cool shots, nice editing, wicked system
Thanks. please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
@@BudgetBassHead i can share it with my friends, i'm not on social media ;( but you've come a long way, nowhere to go but up
Great videos how are these little guys ? I’m thinking about putting 4 of them in my spare tire area its 10” high and about 35” long would this sound better then 1 JL 12”shallow mount 3
Go for it! Never owned the JL, but I like these.
Con dos subs de esos y una buena caja acústica.... Se los lleva a todos juntos de cajón jaja
This is so needed for some GM Suv owners.
brother where you been long time no see and btw the md8000.1 I had 3 at separate times I had each one wired to .67 running at 16.5 volts at time they took it daily my issue I didn't know about at the time was they don't like a lot on input on the rca I was putting in 4 volt they like to be under 2 volts
Glad you figured it out. Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
Now you need another identical box stacked on top of that one, or one big box with another layer lol. Just playing, it would be gnarly but it would be pricy.
😄
Its the next best thing to going fully Open Baffle by cutting holes in the cars frame to stay with the 15" form factor. Great job!
Thanks for watching!
I own CT Ozone 2-12s and they are the best tuffest deepest sounding woofers I've ever owned. I've owned Cerwin Vega, Kicker, skar,mtx and these are the best in every category for me. Amazing speakers
Thanks for sharing!
Looks really cool, but why not use larger subs when the space is available?
I need the space for my family and traveling. This is my daily driver; just trying to keep it bumping 😀. Could you Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
🔴 very very nice. why did you install the subs upside down
that's the mistake I made during testing😄
Any Discount codes
Working on that
I'm curious to know what kind of numbers they will do on the meter
Coming in a future video
Any reason you chose to mount the woofers upside down?... dope build! can the box be installed vertically with the woofers facing up so you can save more truck space?
@@akura2 No this particular box can not be mounted vertically. But you can redesign it that way if you wanted to. The woofers are upside down by mistake.
@@BudgetBassHead gotcha!! Thanks man! Awesome work!!
Qts will determine range below fs without creating a peak and trough output. High q will need more than vas as net volume tuned below fs to be musical/flat.
That is true. I will share the TS parameters and WinISD drawings in a later video. Meanwhile, Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
@@BudgetBassHead i get notifications of your uploads, but glad to share and help out.
With box rise you will never get that low of ohm load
Testing is not complete. But I have MORE than enough power for this setup.
Yes! A BBH video on my notification list.
Love it 💯. Hope you enjoy!
I would consider a setup like this but with 8’s
I would love to see that. I originally wanted to do eights but couldn't get the overall clearance I desired.
That's inspiring
so how much cu ft does the box take up in your trunk?
approximately 3 cubic foot
I have a single 6.5 audio dynamics on 1500 watt amp wired to 2 ohm it does great
They remind me of B2 audio sub designs. As long as you don't overpower it, should sound great. Could you Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
@@BudgetBassHead will do I really appreciate your video
Have you tried to configure all subs to 1 ohm by connecting two pairs in parallel to achieve two sets of 1 ohm, then connect these two sets of pairs that are 1 ohm in series to get a sub configuration of 4 subs to 2 ohms. lastly use the last sub and wire it down in parallel to 2ohms and then wire your 4 subs which have a net ohm load of 2 ohm to the one sub which is 2ohm to give you a net ohm load of 1 ohms. I am not an expert by any means but all subs will individually wire at 2ohms, though the 5th sub might be over powered if the current split is 50/50. Meaning if the amp provides an arbitrary 5000watts rms, it will split the 2500watts rms to the one sub(5th sub) and then equally slipt the other 2500watts to the 4 subs. If you have the equipment to test this, please do and hopefully share it with us. I love your channel and I got the inspiration to build my very first 6th order box for a 12inch from watching your videos. Keep up the great work!
That's a 10inch Infinity Kappa sub not a 12inch sub 😅
To answer your first suggestion, I couldn't do that because of what you said. Not all the subs would receive the same power. Glad you were able to build the bandpass; they have amazing bandwidth. By the way, Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
@@BudgetBassHead hi, I will share it.
Wow 😮
Wait till you see the news setup
Amazing set up. Love this
Glad you like it!
Dope
Mi linea favorita de bajos son serios 👍👍👍👍👍
Nunca he comprado en esta empresa. Pero me gusta este subwoofer. Gracias por ver mi video
I've always seen people just jump from one voice call to the next I've never seen somebody use a single run of positive and negative wire
It's easier to manage this way. You can independently remove and add subwoofers without disrupting the entire chain. You can even do live/hot swaps during competitions. Because the impedance would automatically adjust itself.
@@BudgetBassHead how do u attach the wire to the place where you stripped it at.... And i really appreciate it
@@terryburton971 I use ferrules. I'll make sure to explain in a future video.
@@BudgetBassHead i subbed looking forward to the video my friend
Nice
Thanks
Aye was looking to buy one
They are worth it, in my opinion. I was blown away by the performance. I now have some more tuning and crossover adjusting to do. Please share the video. UA-cam doesn't suggest my videos because they're not shared enough.
@@BudgetBassHead aye keep you heads up 👍great video🤝im looking to do some experimental small bass enclosure for my front door,i own a small van 🚐
Alternative is to mount one 15" on the side, box would be almost as thin. Bigger diameter always has advantage of bigger xmax.
I personally prefer any subwoofer size except 12s.
To me, 12s are way too "overrated, overrused and common" because everyone that I know only uses 12s but yet they say they want to be different. Then get an two 24s or 10 6.5s or one 32 lol 😂
You funny.
This build just kind of blew my mind. Moving the same air as a 15" and still having a flat floor in the trunk for whatever, is awesome. Im hoping you got another video just talking about the box some? I actually just switch cars to one that has a hatchback. I was kind of looking at a down firing sub but the ones I've heard don't hit hard enough. Something like this would be awesome. One you still have the floor but in my case it would be easy to hide from people who want to rip it off since it's so visible. I think you nailed it..
Thanks for the support! I'm actually planning on sharing the plans and build logs with you guys in a future video. I'm currently testing this one and it completely amazes me every time I play it 😀
Can 3 of these equal one 12” sub?
Think it's more like 5 or 6 =a12
What was the box tuned for? Did it compare to (1) 15?
Bro I got a el camino the smugglers box behind the seat is perfect for this thank u
Those Meso’s get down they sound punchy too
Yes they are.
bro I got to tell you with all respect you are the shit I hear how humble you are and kicking all that knowledge Mann thanks to you I'm into subs now
also, I have a f 150 2021 I want to replace all the back sit for a customize a box with 2 15s what do you think any advice thanks
KEEP THE GOOD WORK
It's doable. But make sure you have the space recommended by the subwoofer. Should hit done really high SPL scores with that build.
