  1. oh noes! I dont meet the requirements to sell here and if i do it again im going on a vacation.
  2. I have a dc lvl 5 15" for sale (it needs a recone). check your pm for more info
  3. I have a DC lvl 5 15" that needs a recone. As far as the spokes and motor goes its perfect.
  4. I have a DC lvl 5 15" for sale that needs a recone soon. Ill send it do you for 325.
  5. Alright, I think I got a new design coming along decently. I think a DC Level 5 15 is about .21 displacement so thats what I about based this design off of. I will be building this box out of 3/4 MDF, 39" W, 19" H, 15" D. This will give the box 5cuFt of airspace without displacement. The woofer and port will be firing forward COMPETITION: The port will be 5" W (17.5 inches tall) and 16.5" D tuned to 46hz with a total volume of 4.23 cuFt. Will give me a square port area of 87.5 DAILY POUNDING: The port will be 1.5 "W (17.5 inches tall) and 16.5" D tuned to 26hz with a total volume of 4.8 cuFt. Will give me a square port area of 26.25. i THINK this has to be between 60 and 120 though =/ What do you guys think? The only thing I am not sure about is the competition box. It seems that with a port that big it will reduce the cuFt of the box to about 4 not including the displacement from the woofer... EDIT: I just realized the daily pounding port may do two things 1) I dont have enough port room 2) I may get port noise
  6. .. I havent really listen to much chopped and screwed stuff. I actually looked it up for the first time ever about a week ago. I am a huge bass head. I mainly listen to the bass lines of songs and the drums and whatnot. I really like song for example. The third bass drop is too low (37 seconds in) for my box now but the second bass drop (0:34) hits hard as hell. I know some ICP songs go that low (I think it hits 30hz), some other dorrough songs, some slim thug, gucci man. The list goes on and on. From my ear (no term lab) that's were my car peaks at because everything rattles to death. I officially lost my license plate to that song and am still waiting for the replacement.
  7. I had like 85% of the seat folded down I want to say. Theres two parts, one 85 the other 15 about... I usually dont fold down the smallest part because its still a wiring nightmare back there (out of sight, out of mind..hah). And no I do not have my trunk sealed off yet. I am waiting on the rebuild of my box to seal it off. But I did tweak the SSF a little bit. I noticed it was lower than it should be (not too much but a little). I can turn it up a little bit more now but I am worried about magnet slap. It happened to me once (I think it was magnet slap at least) and scared the shit out of me. I haven't really pushed it sense...
  8. Hey guys... I am just trying to get more "bang" from my dc level 5 15". Right now I am not happy from its output, but I do like the lows that I get but believe the woofer could do better. My current box is 3.5cuFt (too small, I know) tuned to about 31.5hz. It does nice on a few songs but doesnt really bang like I have seen others (on youtube) do. I re measured my trunk this morning and figured (with a little bit of pushing) the MAX I could get is 39W, 18.75H (could probably squeeze it to 19), and would like to keep the depth to as minimal as possible. As of right now my box is 22D and I hardly have enough room for the extra battery back there. I would like to try and tune around 28hz for daily pounding (I believe I will get more bang if I tune lower and have a little better output, forgive me if I am wrong though). And 48hz for competitions (no specific reason, I just figure tuning up 20hz would be easier than 15 or 16...etc). This will be going in the trunk of a 2003 VW Passat Sedan and will be powered by a SAZ-3500D. I would like to try and get this box rebuilt for the competition in Madison,WI on the 27th. I think I would like to aim for roughly 4 to 4.25cuFt. Again I need to keep the depth under what it is currently in order to keep the battery back there. Also I would prefer using max height and width because I want to seal off the trunk. The woofer and the port I would also like to be firing forward. If you need more info just let me know. Thanks!
  9. Sorry, I passed out last night while trying to pull an all nighter... i think i still have the keyboard imprints on my face... Anyway, a 2003 VW Passat sedan. I am not that experienced so I am guessing I would not want to tune that low.
  10. I just watched (thor I think) level 6 video and DAMN. I need to get some shit like that. Its tuned to (I think) 24hz? What are the benefits of tuning that low? I was always told stay above 30... But yeah, benefits? Is it not as loud? Is there only good airflow? Is it possible to change the tuning (say 22hz) to 42hz (for comps) easier than doing it from 32 to 42? I am looking to have my next box (building soon!) to have a slider / add stuff in it to change the tuning of it. My level 5 right now is being pushed by a 3500D and the box is tuned to 31.5hz. I don't think I could get anybody's hair to move in the window.... yet.
  11. re measuring trunk, working on running old wires in better place

  12. Yeah I know and I trust your opinion. But I dont think you were exact on the cubes... I do appreciate your help though.
  13. Alright, I am in the search for a new box design. Not asking for a new design now but just recommendations... First off I was told by a couple of people on here that I want a smaller box than what I have. Currently its about 4.5 cuFt and it isn't quite banging like I have seen others do. The excursion isnt what I have seen others do either (on youtube). I figured out today I was clipping my deck a little bit but it wasn't anything major. I easily fixed that by tweaking the EQ a little bit. I was clipping the amp a hair as well but when I fixed my deck the amp was fine. I was able to move the gain a good amount but still it isn't banging as hard as it should. Anyway to the whole box idea / design here. What is the displacement of a level 5 15 dc? I was told its .23 but that may be off. I was also told that I want a big box and that 4.5 cuFt would make the woofer loud as hell. Well its not to be honest (tuned to about 31hz).. I was told a few days ago that I need a box between 1.75 and 2.5 cuFt after displacement because I am throwing ~3500 watts at it (SAZ-3500D). And for two 15s 2 - 2.75 cuFt per woofer would be the best if I get level 5 15 and another 3500D. I see Thor is running a box much smaller than what he should AND is throwing 5kw per 10" level 5 woofer. Those things look like they are going to blow out of his box... Also that with anything more than 2k watts you should always fire the port and woofer towards the cab of the car and seal off the trunk. Well my trunks not sealed off (one reason why I want to rebuild the box) and I don't think my box is tuned to where it should be. I think I want more back pressure (smaller box) because that will cause it to climb in db during comps. My trunk is about 42" wide, 17.5" tall and 41" deep. The only problem that doesn't make it square is the support beam between the C pillars. It acts as the lock for the back seats and is angled towards the rear of the car. The middle of it is the smallest part of the bar leaving that to the biggest part opening towards the cab. It is also roughly 5 inches thick and is hollow. If you were to measure from the back side of the bar to the rear of the trunk you will get only about 30 inches because there is one of those stupid child safety lock things. I tried to remove it once before but its welded to all hell and would be a bitch to remove it. I need to keep this car looking stock so I am pressed for space and weight. So I need to keep the back seats in place and take them out for comps (temperately). I think I am the victim of inexperience and peoples bad advice... But by posting and reading and reading some more and then reading more and then watching videos I think I am slowly growing my knowledge.
