  1. I love's me the buckeyes. They are my favorite college team. I was born and raised in Ohio, and I now live in North Carolina. It sucks because I don't always get to watch the games, but none the less they are the greatest!!!!!!!!!!!
  2. Stay away from those Audio Pipe amps. They are complete crap. There is a guy that was on Team Roadquake with 3 of the 3000's on 6 15's and he was only making something like 4000 watts out of three of those amps. They will NOT do the power that they claim they will. I am going to be selling my Crunch GP3000D and if you're interested let me know. You won't be able to get one of these new ever again. Maxxsonics is discontinuing them and replacing them with a new amp next year. Mine is in almost mint condition except for a minor scuff to the heatsink. Pm me if you're interested in getting something done. I can tell you that you won't be able to touch one of these amps for under $550 anywhere on the net right now unless it's used. This amp will run at .5 ohms all day long with the proper extra battery upgrade and would even help to add a ho alt with it, but can be run at .5 and has without a ho alt.
  3. Check the subs to make sure that they are all in phase. With that many coils it's possible to have one wired out of phase, and that would affect your number quite a bit. Also what frequency did you burp the truck at? I know you wanted a box tuned super low for daily, but you can't expect to get great numbers tuned that low with the limited amount of space you have.
  4. Some big long word I don't know how to spell, but it's used to glue subwoofers and also for hobby use like model airplanes and cars together.
  5. 5 min epoxy made by loctite will work awesome. You should more than likely use CA glue, but that's what failed on my subs so instead of regluing it with CA I used the 2 part loctite epoxy. That shit is way stronger than CA. Use it for anything and it will hold forever.
  6. This is just an idea too, but I'm curious what a Nightshade would do in the setup with no changes. I bet you would see at least a 148.5 or better out of it.
  7. Jake, you should throw the meter in the kick for the hell of it and see what kind of number you'll pull there. Also are you going to be bringing your meter on Saturday? If so would it be possible to use it for a little bit? I understand if you aren't going to take it since it's kind of a pain in the ass to bring along. Anyway good job man. I'm really impressed with the single 15. How are the 2 1500D's per 3100 holding up for you? That would be exactly how I plan on running my car for now and I just wondered if they hold up on the single battery per 2 amps.
  8. Imo, 15's are nice, but if you are worried about space why not do a pair of 12's. Or you could even do a single 18. A single 18 has more cone area than 2 12's. I have a small hatch and happen to have 2 12's in it in 4 cuft after displacement. My point is that if you lack in space use what space you have to house woofers that can fit. I have the space for 15's in my car but I went with 12's. I'm not disapointed at all since I'm doing awesome numbers out of the 12's, and they sound bad ass for a daily ride. It's just something to think about instead of trying to cram as much crap as you can in a space that won't hold it.
  9. You're right it may not be him, but they are still disrespecting his name. Haters
  10. That's no way to treat a legend.
  11. You could do it if the amps are strappable. In your case I don't think that they are so you would need a Maxxlink to do it.
  12. Here's another that was kind of cool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYUL8unD3uo...feature=related
  13. I was looking on youtube tonight and came accross this video. I can see myself doing something like this if I owned a scooter. I don't see how you're supposed to hear it though when you're riding it.
  14. If you send it priority mail they will give you a tracking number.
  15. I agree those don't look like standard DD surrounds. They look more like the surrounds off of the Audio Pulse woofers.
  16. Okay, I was just wondering. My subs have yet to get even warm since we did the recones on them with the upgrades and cooling. Do you think this is an even better option than what you used for the Nightshade's upgraded cooling?
  17. Is the cooling that you're using on this woofer the same or similar to the cooling on my Nightshade 12's?
  18. You got skillz! I enjoyed it quite a bit. I don't play real drums at all, but I can play almost any song on RB on hard. You should make a bass track for all of us to bang in our cars.
  19. Looks good. It might get louder with the woofers all the way in the front of the box near the front two seats instead of all the way in the back. I'm guessing that you have the port on the box firing back? If so I would say that you will gain if you do move the woofers closer to the front.
  20. I've got a few tricks that I might be able to help you get a few tenths out of it with. I'm not sure if you've tried them, but we can meter it before you decide to run on Saturday and try them out. Or you can just try them when you run for your qualifying.
  21. Jacob, are you bringing the Jeep to the show on Saturday? If you are I'll need a demo in it and I might have to be the one to wear ear plugs in your ride this time
  22. I don't think that they're tiny amps. I don't see any power and ground going into them. If I had to guess I'd say that they were crossover's.
  23. Got mine. Just need to get the $ to go now since I currently have no job. You guys from the West need to come hang with us in Indy. That's where the party's gonna be at this year!
  24. For you sir I will do it for $75+ shipping to you. Brand new ones can be had for $115-$125 or so on Ebay, but there's really nothing wrong with this one. Cosmetically it's a 9/9.5 and mechanically it sounds as good as the first time it was played. I don't think that I want to do any trades anymore. I got my invite to world finals for bassrace and I need the money to pay for that.
