Numbers really dont mean anything. Lets be honest, literally everything affects power. hot, cold, box rise, parasitic draws, pre amp out voltage, grounds etc, dont go by the numbers. buy an amp to get a baseline and expand from there.
-
They are bright as hell, Iv got the blue one in my S-10 and its stupid bright. When I hooked it up I had 17 volts
lol it is really accurate though, i matched it with my IDEAL meter and then double checked with my fluke and its dead on! it reacts pretty fast too when my voltage drops when the subs be hittin' -
I have safety lug nuts on both my trucks, but they sell replacement sockets at autozone, advanced auto parts, napa, etc. So whats the point?

Oh & I don't think id say RF is one of the best amp companies out there. RF amps are power hungry & efficiency isn't real high. About 60-70%?
-
I run 1/0 from my stinger batts to my distro block & 2 2ft. Runs of 4ga. to the amps, same with my grounds. Overkill? Maybe, but I feel better about it running full tilt for extended periods of time.
-
Screw that, I did the big 3 (soon to be 4) & I picked up about half a volt but more importantly I have more consistent voltage all the time. All that crap about heads, struts; exhaust etc. is overkill.

"Good" is a relative term. What sounds good to you might not sound good to me & the other way around. I know my truck sounds terrible below about 30hz, it peaks at 39. It probably all depends on the setup and the car its in.

Iv got a friend
with a similar story. 2 15" memphis m3's on a 1500.1 backed by a hc600, port up, subs up in an extended cab mazda that claims he's doing a 149...so I feel your pain about other peoples stupidity.
-
I compete meca & when I ran street I only used agu fuses. I'm in modified now and run anl's. I never had any issues with agu fuses. You definately want to tune higher than you are. I know where my truck is supposed to peak and I'm 1 hert higher than that & it seems to work but its my understanding that you need to aim for the 45-50hz range for spl and low 50's for drive by.
-
In my truck I had a 3.9 cube box and it peaked @ 41 Hz. Now I'm down to 2.65 cubes & peaking at 38. I'm not sure why though because like punkrock said it should have peaked higher.
-
I did a 136.8 at the headrest in my standard cab S-10 with 2 RF P2 10's wired to 2 ohms on an RF 450.2 amp. 3.5 cube box peaking at 41 hz...1 year later in doing 141.9 at my last comp with 4 sealed SS 12's on 3k rms which seems like a low score but im peaking 38hz.
I think you should definately go with a smaller box for this.

4 Kicker 15" square subs = 15x15x4 = 900 square inches
3 RE 18" round subs = 3.141x(9x9)x3 = 763 square inches.
X2. just checked on the MECA site in the rulebook & these numbers are correct.
-
dude, you are confusing me LOL stop it
X2 I readt that & was like, wtf did he just say?
-
what are the -'s for? Frame is ground.
Iv been told you have the - runs bc the frame isnt such a good ground in high power systems. not sure if thats all there is to it but its what iv heard. maybe someone else can clarify that.

I came across Tech some time ago & I love their music. Killer was a great album, k.o.d. was a good album as well but I liked sickology 101 a little more. Killer is still my favorite though. Im suprised to see that not many people around here have really heard of them.
-
They are around 4.25" deep
Well thats actually pretty flat in all reality. about what do they weigh? In my application they would be suspended from roof in the back of my tahoe.
-
Hey Jacob, what do u think about a real flat Sundown 8 Kickbass for the doors?
X2, I was thinking these would make great mid bass subs in my tahoe if they were real shallow.

Me & my girlfriend went with some friends friday night & saw it. I thought it was a good movie, it definately had some different stuff in it but I thought it was a good story line, especially at the end. Im not big on scary movies but I definately enjoyed this one!
-
I know I have a bunch.
People touching me, like its chill with my girlfriend, but if anybody else touches me I freak out.
spiders
people that drag their feet or chew with their mouths open
going in the lake, bc I cant see the bottom or whats around me. Ironically I own a bass boat & love going on the lake
being alone or in large crowds. also ironic
feeling like people are always watching me
Im sure I have more they just arent coming to mind right now.

Pics or it didnt happen.

a year... when i switched cars, i had to drive a piece of shit that wasn't worthy of a system....
and i know most people say hey throw a system in any car who cares... nah this was different...
Must have been bad
Its been about a month for me & im going freakin nuts. decided to fry both my sub amps in my S-10 & havent shipped them out yet & I bought a tahoe recently with no HU, speakers, nothing. So im in need of an epic build. Hey Rusty...
-
you could do .5, assuimng your impedance rise is enough.
Thats what id do. getting .5 ohm rise to make the amp stable shouldnt be hard at all.
-
I was suprised the first time I got on a TL. 2 sealed P2's on a 450.2 RF amp did a 133.1! lol thenI put my 4 12's in on 4400 watts (rated power) msybe 3k true watts & I was so sure it was a 145 setup......141.9 but I had a huge box, new smaller box has made my rise way less & im making so much more power.
