  1. If I was to looking to sell my DC Level 5 15s... I wonder who might be interested. Freshly reconed, 6 in total.

      glad to see this tactic is alive and well

  2. I wondering how much trouble it would be to run a 16v system...

      It's easy and cheap. Do it.

      I still have plenty of lessons to be learned in the 12 volt level!

  3. Merry Christmas Everybody!

  4. I want to buy Texas Pete's hot sauce and fill 1/4 or 1/8 of the bottom with MadDog 357 Ghost Pepper hot sauce and have a barbeque that I videotape.

      And tampering with food is a felony.

      That shirt isn't something you give to someone with out them knowing about it, it can be dangerous and it's plain wrong.

      Ok... maybe just a few drops in the bottle. Just a "splash".

  5. I FINALLY got access back to the forums! There is a god. Afghanistan blows, at least it used to... Pretty excited! Christ, I need to get back home to my bass and get a new build in the works!

  6. Afghanistan sucks... finally back on the forum for the first time in a LONG TIME!

  7. Trying to decide... either 4 - 18s or 6 - 15s, I'm leaning towards 6 - 15s, because of the greater surface area. I'm also thinking of 5 - 18s, just gotta do all the measuring and design to figure out if it would work.

      Going in a 2003 GMC Yukon XL (essentially a suburban). And... I want to do either DD 9900s, Tantric HDDs, DC Level 6s, or Sundown NSv3. This is a future project, I'm just trying to plan ahead. I still have to sell the equipment I have in the truck and actually get back to the US on a permanent basis(which will most likely be a year or more away).

      Oh... but the amps I will most likely be using are the CT Sounds AT7000.1d, 2 or 3 of them depending on the configuration.

  8. Stockpiling car audio again... maybe I need to get to therapy. I'm a hoarder... when I finally put it all to use, I'll be quite happy though.

  9. I want to order 5 Zv4 18s or 4 Zv4 18s and an X 18. I don't want to put out $610 each though... gotta be a way to get a package price.

      I only have room for one 18 in my RX7... not sure if I'll be able to give the Zv4 enough air space, so I might have to do a X 18. I want to put the other 4 18s in my Yukon XL, I'll just need to build the box, get another run of 0/1 gauge and a couple D3100s or a couple of those Crescendo F-31HP Powercell Batteries.

      What body RX7? My brother had an 18 and a 8cf gross box in the back of his FC and he even kept the (ultra rare)back seats.

      I have the FD RX7, I might have about 4 cuft that I can use. I wanted a small PORTED enclosure. I'm really debating between the Sundown Zv4's and the Digital Design 9500's. Both monster subs, but both super pricey. If I could get a good enough deal on either of those, I'd buy 5 immediately.

  10. Ok... so I just order 2 of the Soundstream XXX-10000D amps. They will probably sit for the next year and a half until I put them in something. #GoBigOrGoHome

  11. I seriously hope there are some car shows and DB Drags/Bass Races that I can go to in MD/DE/PA/DC/VA next month for the few weeks that I'm home! Between September 22nd - October 8th.

  12. Ok... I had my sister check it. Apparently my Dad stole my second battery for his mini-van, because I'm in Afghanistan until next month and no one is driving my Yukon until I'm home for R&R for a few weeks next month. When the stereo is on without the car running, it is at about 9.6v. When the car is started, it is between 13.1v-13.8v depending on the song playing. I don't play the stereo with the car off for longer than about 10-15 minutes if I'm waiting for somebody to pick up something in a store, or make a bank withdraw. If I expect them to be longer than that... I'll usually go in with them.
  13. I wonder what kind of numbers a single Sundown X or Z v4 18 would put out in my RX7... I wonder what kind of numbers my L7's are putting out now. Anybody know of any TermLabs in Maryland so I could find out?

      L7's do good #'s. You may be surprised if you swap, and don't really get much louder. But then again, maybe you would? Only one way to find out which is better for you...

      What up Paul, what kind of L7s are you running? I was running six 12" L7s and I was getting good numbers 147dBs to 150dBs after the Big 3 upgrade. A lot of guys in Detroit are running Sundown's here, but I love the L7s....

      It's in my 1994 Mazda RX7... and that hatch is SMALL! So I could only fit 2 of the thin "Truck Style" 08TS10L72 (10" L7) boxes in there. It's a very shallow trunk/hatch, and these things barely fit (by all 3 dimensions L x W x H).

  14. When are the Z v4 18's going to be available for purchase by us normal consumers?
  15. Ok... I had my sister check it. When the stereo is on without the car running, it is at about 9.6v. When the car is started, it is between 13.1v-13.8v depending on the song playing.
  16. Sorry... I'm in Afghanistan. I have to email back home for this info. I would wait until I got home, but I want it up and running at full power by the time I come home for R&R late next month. I have 2 of these Optima Red Tops under the hood. http://www.optimabatteries.com/us/en/shop/redtop/optima-batteries-8004-003-34-78-redtop-starting-battery/ If I replace these 2 with larger (because I have more room in the locations under the hood where these currently sit) batteries, would that be enough extra amperage? I was thinking of going with 2 XS Power batteries, but I'd want side and top mount posts, as my batteries currently have it that way and I'm using both posts. I looked on XS Powers site, and couldn't find any with side and top mount posts, do you offer any? Would the XS Power batteries with the extra amperage negatively effect any of my stock ECU or anything else? (sorry, I'm a novice, asking questions trying to learn).
  17. Here's what I'm running... 3 - MTX Thunder1501D's (1500w RMS @ 2 ohms), 1 - Alpine PDX-4.150 4-Channel (100w per channel @ 4 ohms) and 1 - Infinity 7541A 4-Channel (100w per channel @ 4 ohms)
  18. I am looking at adding an additional battery to my current setup, which is only slightly over 5,000w RMS. My setup as it currently stands: 1 - 250amp H.O. Alternator (full 250amp output @ 1,200rpm) 2 - Optima Red Top Batteries under the hood (dual battery kit) 1 - 12 Farad Audiobahn Capacitor 1 - Metra Electronics Install Bay IB-200 (200amp Battery Isolator or Relay) I am just looking to get the full power out of my amps, not sure if I'd even need another battery in the rear with the amps. Because I don't know what the requirement thresholds are (ie. watts/amps/volts) to require an additional battery back by the amps. Space is limited, and I want to avoid removing the third row seat, so a small yet effective battery (or batcap) would be great. Just looking for your thoughts. Thank you in advance to all the experts/techs/installers/enthusiasts!
  19. man... I wish I would have joined the forum YEARS AGO. I have practically zero pre-install pics, but I will post videos and more pics as soon as I get some after I get back home in September!

  20. haven't even listened to my sound system in my RX7 and I already want an upgrade. I'm thinking Fi SP4 or DC Level 5 or Sundown Z 18"

  21. too much to do... plasti dip, performance shop, body kit, spoiler, see the box guy, etc...

  22. Sweet! All my Home Theater System came in, now to just run all the wires and set up my Harmon Kardon AVR 1710, 3 sets of Polk RC65i, Polk 255c-RT and 2 Polk PSW505. This bedroom is going to BOOM!

  23. Anybody know of any good/local box builders around Baltimore, MD?
