  1. i use a roller to paint them. it's thicker and doesn't soak in near as much. usually just a couple coats will do ya
  2. output is more based on the enclosure than sub, given similar scenarios
  3. haha wow i would never buy from a company that said his alt did almost full power at idle. that's just stupid
  4. sounds like the same exact thing that happened to my friends ipod that he gave me to fix. i looked high and low to no avail and ended up trashing it
  5. cheap wire = thicker jacket and less wire. if it's not AWG, i wouldn't buy it EDIT: oops...if you're talking about RCA's then most any RCA is fine. some people may argue this point but i've found RCA's to be the same. but i've never ran crazy expensive high end SQ stuff either
  6. figure that out then fuse it with the same size fuse as your alt
  7. well duh, that's the only way to hit all the notes since 18's hit lower and 8's hit higher
  8. as long as it works. at least somewhat. no bondo over fleece for an enclosure
  9. pm'd
  10. soon as i figure out how/if i can get that to work, i'll get back to you. researching it now. i don't have any RCA outs on my carputer i don't think, just some different auxiliary outs. one which is for a mic, one which is for audio
  11. but still...don't companies rate their subs with xx net volume sealed, and xx net volume ported? the ported volume is still higher, but being net volume, all displacements should have already been taken out, including port displacement. i know it's been answered already, just pointing out something And which one do they recommend as louder or for SPL? Ported or sealed? LOL I get your point. haha i know i always just assume technical jibber jabber that probably goes way above my head
  12. but still...don't companies rate their subs with xx net volume sealed, and xx net volume ported? the ported volume is still higher, but being net volume, all displacements should have already been taken out, including port displacement. i know it's been answered already, just pointing out something EDIT: just an example...sundown had rated their E8's at .28 cubes sealed, and .6 ported
  13. can you PM me closer pics of the connectors? if i can get them into my carputer then i have serious interest. and as long as they're not too big for my headrests
  14. i can't believe i finally made it a whole 5 posts without someone quoting how many people are looking at this thread i whistled out loud at that first picture. that stance with that color and those wheels...just a sexy combination. a majority is that stance...low low like that is just drop dead sexy in my eyes. not that anything else even comes close to looking half bad tho lol
  15. this is what you should do. i installed a pair of T4 tens in my friends celica and they sounded GREAT. we were both shocked at how it sounded when we powered it up for the first time
  16. i'd rather download or make the files for free and have a cheaper price over having it come with a cd. *click...click click* there, you're done. saved me some dollars
  17. http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/index.php?app=members&module=messaging&section=send&do=form&fromMemberID=384 ^^instead of bumping a 3 year and 3 month old thread
  18. because not everyone knows what you do not being a smart ass...being serious lol. imo it's a safer to have that than to have people blindy make port area and hope it works. i've seen people ask me about boxes that had 5 sq inches or less for big boxes. and no matter what i think that just won't work
  19. i LIKE this! very interesting way you did the wheel wells
  20. no no no...that's completely wrong. work on the sketchup skillzz hardcore till something looks like something first, then upload the pictures hahaha sorry
  21. yep. surface area of the port is port area. 5 x 20, 4 x 25, 8 x 12.5, etc. and not to contradict what ed said...but a 16 cube wall...with only 100 sq inches of port? that's 6.25 sq inches per foot. sounds awfully tiny to me. you sure you read what he meant right? just curious in case you overlooked something
  22. not quite that easy. sectioning off the squares is the easy part. doing the triangle part of the box with the angled wood is where the precision comes in. since the wood is at an angle, the measurement of where that meets the flat part of the box is not quite .75" thick, and depending on how much of an angle there is will depend on how thick the two corners are, changing the volume ever so slightly. keyword there is *slightly* tho. our measurements were very very close
  23. not only that...pretty sure the ROE files aren't clipped. so downloading the same file won't 'maybe' make it clip...same file every time lol.
