  1. x1,000,000. I had to build mine inside the car. Do alot of planning and measuring. You will learn ALOT on your first try. I'm about to start my trim panels, fun. Good luck with the build.
  2. After closer inspection, Step3n1 is right. Almost. The leads are sewn into the spider, so very hard to see on this little guy. Got up close today, just double checking stuff, and ALL the leads are frayed and brownish in color. Only thing I can think is crossover, had it set around 100, and thought it was around 70. I don't know if its what caused it, but I did play it pretty damn hard, and in a big box.
  3. Yes, easily. But build the box right, don't clip them, and ask about direct leads when you order.
  4. Good shit! That shit should get loud in a Ranger. My 15's should be here this week!
  5. I'm gonna send it in, so Rusty can determine what caused the failure. It was probably the box being too big. We'll see. I got no use for it for midbass, using the AA 7 inchers for that. My wife is mad though because we were gonna put it in her car when I got the 15's.
  6. Yeah, i'll call Monday. Don't want to fuck up their friday with this kind of thing.
  7. Oh well, 15's will be here next week. Still confused how the coils can go but they look good, don't smell, and there is no scratching noise when I push the cone. Time for
  8. The lowest ohm setting, and no reading from either coil when I push the cone. The box is a bit big, but I only had 350 going to it. Follow dealer recommendations on box spec
  9. The DMM not touching anything, no reading The leads touching Coil 1, no reading Coil 2, no reading
  10. OK, so I have the sub out and its not good. Neither coil even gives a reading. Let me get some pics.
  11. I swear I just thought of the same thing.
  12. Double and triple checked. Thats the screwy thing. I should point out the sub cut out on the way home from dinner. No smell, no smoke, cool dustcap. Then I check and get that reading. I'm gonna go pull the sub real quick.
  13. If on the ohm setting on the DMM, I touch the probe to the OUTSIDE speaker terminals on the box, is that number the ohm load the amp is seeing? I have my dual 2 wired to 4 ohms, but when I touch the terminals it reads 1.5. Is it possible I blew a coil?
  14. Its for a friends build, and he wants stock replacements that will "drop right in". Picked up some Polk Audio sets. Whatever, its his car. Mods can lock this, I guess.
  15. I tried turning the box around, it didn't sound as good. A little louder maybe, but not as clean. So I turned it back. But here is some Bass Monster excursion, just because;
  16. Looking to get a pair of 5.25" 2or3-way speakers and a pair of 3.5" 2-way speakers. Would like them to be the same brand and be 45-60 RMS. They'll probably be on an RF Prime 300.4.
  17. I don't know shit about all that either, i'll just try it and see if it's louder. 6th order, 8th order, wtf? All I know is I got an 8 on 350 watts turnin' heads!! That what's up!!
  18. Didn't even think about that. Thanks for the idea. New vid tomorrow!! I'm trying. Hopefully somebody will get some X-mas money and need an 8000 watt amp.
  19. Well the 8 is starting to loosen up and get a little louder. My camera doesn't pick it up very well, but the door is flexing pretty good for a single 8. The inner door panel flex's alot, too, but the sun killed that shot. I'm a little scurred lol, if one 8 can move the door, whats 3 15 gonna do to meh car??
  20. I've got a brand new RF t-500. Its on my DC 8 right now, but when my 15's arrive I'm selling it, probably next week. PM if you want it.
  21. Oh great, more copyrights. Not available in Germany. FTMFL!!
  22. Did I read 4 gauge power wire? Need to step up to 1/0. Like TeamHT said, more info on box specs could help us help you.
  23. WTF @ :10-:13, is that dude riding a chariot?
  24. I had my xl 12 on 2500 daily and got looser over time, not blow-on-it soft though. If you give it more power, shrink the box maybe? And like others have said, check the spiders. How long have you had it anyway?
  25. 13, 10, 8, or 6 inch. SVC (2,4,
