  1. I measured a production v.2 and a newly re-built v.3 with the final compliance side-to-side with the same amount of play time (neither is fully broken-in). Just to compare... looks like we nailed the stiffness based on FS... and we see a drop in Qts due to the higher BL (also higher sensitivity) : BL^2/RE = 70.17 BL^2/RE = 85.78 ----- I don't trust the Woofer Tester as an "end all be all" of spec measurement either so don't read too far into it... but comparing on the same day back-to-back I can tell if my design goals are being met The spec on our web-site for the SA-8 v.2 was done with a Klippel machine after full break-in for reference.

  2. You're not buying a car battery. Any time someone spends that much on batteries, they are generally aimed for greater purposes. In this case a battery designed for audio use. If you need just a car battery then get something designed for that purpose. Can't complain about the cost of a luxury car when all you needed was a beater

  4. So you gave him the sub? What kind of ride? He has a beater a 2002 malibu. His family isnt wealthy at all and they have 6 kids in a 3 bedroom house. My buddy is completely selfless. When his car got hit he gave the insurance money to his parents. He deserved some bump in his life. So we are going to fix his doors, fix his headliner and do a new hu. Yeah that's cool and all but I hoped you talked to sonic about that since you did agree to their rules and stipulations one being that you own and posses the vehicle.

  5. The tool is done and the very first unit rolled out of the mold yesterday. I will have a sample to play with next week !!! This one is currently patent pending (our 8, 10, 12, and 15 are already patented) -- ETA for full stock will be Jan-Feb of 2015. This frame is ~8.3" tall, supports 6" p-p excursion, and up to a 12" spider (also have 10" and 9.25" landings)... it weighs in at 10-11 lbs (I'll weigh it myself when it gets here). I will finally be comfortable making TEAM 18s at that point. The main bolt pattern is a new, bigger pattern for coils larger than 4" in diameter. For all current designs we have a cast aluminum adapter piece that attaches to the base for a standard 127mm bolt pattern. All current products will still use a 10" spider and current surround sizes -- future motors that support the additional throw allowed by the basket will move up to the 12" spider landing at that time and will also receive a newly tooled surround to mate up to that (no ETA to announce yet for that). Anyway... it's been a long time coming; enjoy the photos!
