ok i have 2 rd audio 3250.1 strapped @ 2 ohms the slave amp almost always go into protect only the slave turn the ing off startr it back up its fine till i go full tilt again thought it was the rca but done changed them 4 times anyone?
anyone?

If your truely going for SPL and don't care about sound quailty then I rebuild your port and tune for around 45 or 50hz, your peak note will a little higher whatever you tune your box at. I seen a two db increase from tuning of 35hz to 58hz, but I am building a removable port so I can have both sql and spl.
ok thanks

build it the same specs, just change it to port up instead, it can be the same size...
oh i see but where do i place the port cabin side or hatch under the lid
-
well your tuned low so you wont hit nearly as high as you should say tuning to 38-42 hz and in a hatchback, which has been said a few times in another one of your posts, subs up port up is louder, to a few people.... including my self. 147.6 is a good score tuned at 32 hz but if you switched it to subs up port up, you would prob hit higher
thank for the help guys but i built the box to treos spec maybe i see a new box in my futher but this one does a nise hairtrick tho is there anything i can do to keep it from beating the shit out of my back bumper like maybe some mdf there or something couse 4 layers of dynamat is not helping any

i have a 97ford probe gt hatchback with 2 18"treo ssx and 2 rd audio 3250.1 strapped @2ohms my best on a termlab was 147.6 my box is tuned to 32hz and is 10cubes 100sqin of port before any displacments this was my first time using a termlab i think my score should be higher oh its subs up port back the score was playing jeezy put on what could help me out and what kind of dbzzzzz should i be getting with this set up
-
i was at a comp once and someone was playing a test tone cd that covered like 10 hz to 120hz all in one sone where can i find this becouse i dont remember where my car peaks at can some one help
-
any luck?
changed rca to the slave amp seems to be doing good now
-
im not thats why i was wondering if unstrapping them will help and just running them @1ohm i could not go full tilt couse the slave amp would go into protect thats why i wont to unstrap them if you think it will help
someone plz anwser this ? ^^^
-
I definately would not be happy with that score.

-
so does anyone else think wiring the subs to 1ohm and putting 1 amp per sub will help and also when the guy got out his termlab he had to blow the dust off it do you think it may have not been calibrated correctley
-
how was your old setup tuned? with the 2 12s, tuned high? just out of curiosity
no it was tuned to 31hz it was one of the treo made boxes called the hotbox they came out with

IMO i dont think you are gonna gain 7.5 dbs just by rewiring subs and unstrapping the amps. You may gain alittle becasue your impedence rise may not be as high. Can we get some more info on your setup? What type of vehicle box size and tuning?
its a 97 ford probe gt hatchback the box was built to treos specs i wens 10cubes before diplacments 100sqin of port and tuned to 32hz and i have a yellow top up front and 2 stinger 2150 in back and i know i need more i will get them later and i have a crx type box subs up port back and they are 2 18" treo ssx subs and 2 rd audio 3250.1 http://i361.photobucket.com/albums/oo51/fa...pg?t=1234489006

Yes I think that you would be better off unstrapping the amps and just running one per sub. You will have less impedence rise per amp that way and they will make more power in the long run. If you have them wired at 2 ohms strapped they are more than likely not making the 2 ohm power. The impedence rise is probably over 4 ohms and is making close to half the power that the amps would make at 2 ohms. As far as the 147.5 with 2 18's, I personally think that it should be louder. I have 2 Sundown Nightshade 12's and a Sundown saz1500 per woofer and do a 149.7 on the dash sealed in my car. A lot of things could be playing a part of it not being as loud as you'd like. What kind of vehicle is it in? What kind of electrical do you have? What are the box specs? These are all things that would make a difference in why the score isn't a lot higher. With the equiptment that you have I don't see why you shouldn't be doing low 150's on music. I would say to check to make sure that one of the subs isn't wired out of phase cause that could have a lot to do with your score too.
thanks for your reply im going to unstrap them tommorrow and run one amp per sub but i had 2 12's aswell doing 149.4 and then tested the 18's today and was like wtf but it sounds twice asloud with the 18's just low scores and my hatch is comeing up like 3 inchs in the back but tried to hold it down the best we could but maybe after rewiring the sub and unstrapping the amps you think 155 is possable
-
ok when i strap my amps and play a long bass note the slave amp goes in two protect why?
second ? is 147.5db bad on a termlab sealed up on music with 2 18" and 2 rd 3250.1
and would i be better off unstrapping the amps and just wire the subs to 1ohm and hook up 1 amp per sub they are strapped @2ohms now
-
yeah it works, have my 2 sub amps running off a toggle switch and my mids/high amp off the decks remote
it gives you more control if say your driving to work in the morning and dont wanna have your subs going you can just turn them off
thanks uhoh im would like to do that so when you dont wont all the bass you can just turn um off
-
that is what i do
thats what i was thinking but i did not wont to screw anything up
-
ok im running three amps now and i have never done it before just one amp at a time but my queston is the remote wire on the deck is going to my exzisting amp in the back can i jump from that amp to anuther then from that amp to the last one with no issues any help please
-
Is this for burps or daily? If it is for burps the 2 best batteries are Stinger 2150 or the nsb 90 or nsb g3100. Different ball game though if you are planing on going daily and you actually use your batteries. 4 batteries though I think would be better for daily as there are more batteries to spread the system draw around.
i would like to run 4 batterys but after building the new box i dont have room for 4 just 2 good ones so would the powermasters d3100's work
-
x2
thanks for the help guys
-
ok thanks so is there anything that can help with the vibration couse i dont have anywhere to mount them
-
IMO, as long as your box doesnt flex, it doesnt matter much if its on the box or an inch away, its getting shaken pretty hard either way. ive never personally seen an amp get shaken to pieces, i have seen one or two broken cuz they werent strapped down and the person went offroading or flying over speedhumps or something
never personally seen one shaken to pieces, and ive seen quite a few "delicate" amps strapped directly to some nuts boxes...like a jbl a6000 screwed right onto a box with 6 15's, and no problems
i dbl everything the box is a 1 1/2 all the way around and 16" tall i dont think it will flex much

yes this was during the install and waiting on tthe ground wire to come in lol and i will try to reverce the amps to see it still does it and i will go down on the gain a little aswell but it was set with a dmm ill let you know
