  1. This is all I could find, need to know the program name that Pro.7 played this on.... Pro 7, or ProSieben, is one of the largest privately owned German TV station. Their slogan is "We love to entertain you." be interesting to see which one they showed and stuff.... grats!! EDIT: LOL, looks like decaf beat me to the punch there.....
  2. Anyone able to provide some input by chance? Here is a little bit more info if it helps..... This speaker (Punch HX2) has an Qts of 0.39, so it is pretty close to spot on the mark for an "ideal" speaker to utilize (wish I had the other T/S specs of the speaker to verify), but since it was right at or slightly above the desired Qts, I wasn't sure if there would be any adverse effects to tuning slightly higher. I am going to run with this design and see how it works out. Figure it might not dig down quite as low as I would like, running slightly high tuning freq. should help prevent any damage to the speaker from over excursion and such. I wish I had a few extra inches of width to work with, but really limited to 34" wide..... Current box works out to roughly (at work, don't have exact specs) 34" wide x 22 1/2" deep x 13 1/2" tall with a port/line area of 6.5"x12". The HX2 measures right at 10" from middle of surround to middle of surround, so working that out, I went 5x5=25 - 25 x pi = 78.53981.... (rounded down to 78) 78/12=6.5 which gave me my final port/line area of 78sq in so I went with 6.5"x12" to keep things simple. If it is critical to reach closer to Fs of the speaker, I can try and modify the port dimensions (making it taller and skinnier) allowing me to possible get an additional line if I were to increase the depth of the box by another few inches. Just trying to get this hammered out before start construction. Thanks for any input you may have!
  3. I was coming up with a plan for a t-line box for an HX2, and have a couple questions.... The Fs of the speaker is 26hz, and I know you should generally tune to the speaker Fs, but is it OK to tune a little higher? Reason I ask is that I would need a length of about 10.5 feet to get down to a 26 hz tune; however, when working with the dimensions I had, I could only work out about 8.5ft in line length... tuning to roughly 32hz by my calculations... Would there be any adverse effects of making it this way? Would it actually help from bottoming out the speaker since it shouldn't dig down below it's capabilities? Any input would be truly appreciated. I created a t-line for a couple 7 kv.2's and was amazed by the output, and the tuning was right around 35hz, so I'm thinking this should work out nicely and still be able to dig down fairly low. I guess the only true way to find out would be to make it and see how it sounds, but trying to get any info about effects of tuning higher than the speaker Fs when making a t-line. Thanks for your time and assistance!
  4. I take it you are running each channel seperate to and active front stage? Would/Could it be better and allow you more power if you were to bridge the channels, and use an active crossover instead of utilizing the individual channels to each speaker? I love me some Xtant goodness!!! My eventual setup I am looking to either go all Xtant (1001x and 604x's) or Diamond (D7 series).... they have been my go to amp for SQ (not to mention all underrated to boot since they used 12v ratings), especially considering their price point versus other "SQ" oriented brands.
  5. is in a mellow place...

  6. EDIT: sorry for the double post... must be something up with my internet again....
  7. When you say it doesn't work on 14v, only 12v, what exactly do you mean??? Most people's charging systems are 12v rated but charge at 13.8-14.4 regularly.... What is the actual issue with the amp is really the question I am asking I guess... I am interested, just need a few more details before I could commit....
  8. oh come on guys... you all talk as though you have never seen a van before with the engine housing/cover in between the front two seats.... usually has cheap plastic/wood "accessories" on it..... but I'd LOVE to see a couple of these in action inside a van, biggest cargo area I've seen them in is an extended Expedition.....
  9. Man... you don't know HOW jealous I am right now... lol I still have my original Season of da Sickness CD... all scratched to hell and still playing like a BEAST!!!! Just something SOOOO raw back in the day, heck, most artists now days won't even touch rhymes on that level!!! He is definitely an old school legend!! Props to chillin'!!!
  10. I remember following these liek a year ago when they were making them.... CRAZY subs for sure!! :hairtrick:
  11. A couple buddies have done it that way and worked but I personally have had no experience in that area...
  12. well, to begin with, that was a 1200 watts amplifier, 2400 watts is it's "MAX" rating which is nearly never reached unless you severly clip the signal to that thing... you should utilize the "RMS" wattage ratings when asking questions like these, which in this case turns out to mean you could get away with using 4 gauge wire; however, probably best to run 1/0 from your battery to your amp, then run into through a fused distributin block and use a 4 gauge from the distro block to the amp. Hope that helps some...
  13. Hey Meade, Beautiful seats man (saw the pics in your other thread) I'm sure... but just curious, what who do you use to host your pictures that you post online?? The only reason I ask is I used to be able to view nearly all pics/vids before from work, but now I only can see a few posts pics..... Example given, I was looking at the Group 31 battery For Sale thread and can see the batteries he has, but I am not able to view your current pictures of yoru seats. Can't wait to see your actual ones, only saw the "demo" version in your previous thread.... Thanks for the input, just kind of wondering what site my work is starting to filter now and which ones aren't..... Fricken work internet filters!!!!
  14. well... just not enough info to go on here.... Do you have the ability to draw a sketch of the box that you have in mind so others can have a visual of how it would look when constructed? There are ways to not get cancellation (if there are partition/walls nlocking part of the trunk) and then some setups have crazy cancellation. All depends on the setup, obstructions that would redirect the sound waves, dampening materials to absorb some/certain freq's, etc....
  15. I'm trying to think of the product, but there is an AWESOME (yet older, possibly disontinued) product that you spray in your engine bay, and it literally takes all your black rubber/plastic back to that nice dark, factory look. Man... I want to call id CD-4 or something like that. I used to get it at my local automotive store years ago, but then I could only find it online after that. I haven't even thought about it for quite some time, so give me a little bit. If I think of or verify the product name, I will let you know.... Nice thing about this product was, you spray it and leave it, no need to wash off. If your bay is all sorts of dirty, it's suggested to use a degreaser before use to get the heavier stuff off.....
