got my new level 4XL 15"
oldschool replied to rboudreaux77's topic in DC Sound Lab - Big Bass on ANOTHER LEVEL!
Yep a lot of bracing and goin thru the wall helps stabalize the port wall use 1/2 in allthread and I have tried dowel rods 2x4s and mdf and allthread works best 4 me and uses hardly any airspace so does not change your tuning. -

Looks good I would use some allthread from top 2 bottom and side 2 side thru the port with nuts and washers on inside and out side of the port and walls of the box and you'll be straight. -

Yep recone and the spider was worn due 2 possibly playing below tuning or old age youcan try fixing it but I would break down and get a recone 4 it. -
My 2 cent do I think stetsom amps are junk no do they blow easy well let's put it this way everybody I have personally known running them have blown there's at 1 time or another but they do come with a good warranty so it equals out and third do they do rated power hmmmmm maybe some do however I am oldschool and believe a 14k amp with 1 hot and ground on it is impossible just my opinion however I would like thors feedback if he has ever clamped 14k out of his I would guess around 7 to 9k tops and I am not bashing stetsom like I said they do have a good warranty however I am still not sold on em.

Quick question how much power are you guys feeding the subs I burped my level 5 18 with 14k of dirty power and it still held together fine the coil finally gave out after 11 burps back 2 back but it stayed together just fine just curious if it is just the 10s with that problem or y'all are throwing a hell of a lot more power than I am.

Just so y'all know the audiopipe 3k is rated 3k at 2 ohms not 1 so roughly 1500 watts each. -

And just an fyi with ac voltage 99.9% of the time the problem is where the sparks and heat are coming from not down the line now dc voltage is different. -

X2 that. Is what I was thinking you have to torque them down or they will build up. A lot of heat I always go over them with goop after all connections are good and tight to keep them from backing off. -
DUSTCAP

I use this stuff called goop from home depot works great and I never had a dustcap pop off again after using it.
