  1. <<<You want to interlock the corner joints, and you can not do this by gluing the sheets together first>>>

    Funny cuz every wall I build has interlocked corners and the panels are glued up ahead of time, even the triple layered ones. Just takes some thinking....

    For a normal box you can just build the outer shell and add in the internal panels afterwards. If you're worried about the corners add small 45's to hold them together

  2. I'd stay away imo. The owner doesn't seem to care enough to put more specs on the site so why even bother buying them if it's on a hunch? I was going to grab a pair but went with some maximos and couldn't be happier. Nice midbass and sound clarity.

    Because you "listen" to specs right, not the actual speakers....

  3. Having trouble finding more info on these. Anyone tried them? I'm looking for some reviews and have yet to find much of anything. $100 seems hard to beat, but would like to have heard atleast a little more about them before I order them. Needing something to hold me over till I glass the doors on my Ranger.

    Power will likely be an MB Quart Onyx4.80

    Believe they're different then the $200 set they used to sell. Installed that one in a team mate's ride and was very happy with them. Got quite loud and had decent midbass.

    For a hundo I'd take a chance on them...

  4. He had 4 AQ3500D.1s and then went to 8 AQ3500D.1s

    I would recommend 5 cubes per for the 15s and 6 cubes per for the 18s, I have done 160s outlaw just off 4 AQ 15s and 2 AQ3500D.1s, my wall is around 20 cubes net.

    I have the old school 3500's, not the 3500.1's unfortunately.

    20cubes net is big, probably more efficient also. No way to go that big in my altima without a LOT of work and OP might have that problem also since he lists a Contour in his sig.

    OP I'd shoot for 17-20cubes net and you should be happy with it

  5. so im planning on building some doors for a more SPL side of life car but i want some highs. i was thinking of doing a 2 set of components in the doors. i was originally planning on doing two 6.5" components sets with tweets. however after further thinking i was considering of changing it to one set of 6.5's and a set of 5.25's. will i run into any phasing issues? im thinking the change just to mix up the look a little. either way it will be nice.

    NEUMAN

    I think 5.25s might give you a better tone in the upper midrange area ... but not help you get any louder ...

    5.25's are a waste of time/money

    I completely disagree with this statement ...

    I think 5.25s might give you a better tone in the upper midrange area ... but not help you get any louder ...

    and just how did you come to that conclusion???

    And for getting loud I think 6.5's are a waste of $$$, that's why I run 12's in my doors :WTFBubble:

  6. NP, and 1200watts clipped will kill a sub eventually. Do you have stock electrical as I run an AQ1200 in the wife's car and it will dim the lights pretty bad when I crank it up. She doesn't play it that loud though, so it's not a problem, but obviously that is enough to drop voltage and clip the signal

  7. Throw a DMM on each VC cause if you started to unwind the coil at least one side should read way off. and you don't necessarily hear clipping. How often did you get the sub stinky? I beat the crap out of my HDC's, but know when to back off...

    If you don't already have the v4 basket/recone then get that and you'll be happy. Louder and lower is what I've found with the subs I've reconed with the latest stuff.

  8. advertising an outlaw score like that is just misleading. makes you think "hey thats a good score" then you see its outlaw and you think "oh.. no thats just average" :shrug:

    how is that average for a none walled trunk?

    because a lot of times the outlaw and sealed scores are 3db apart. so your 148 becomes a 145. i would bet you wont be over a 146. and im not saying that sucks. its just more accurate.

    how is it more accurate??? That statement makes no sense, both scores are on a TL.

    because science must comply to a standard. if one subwoofer company advertised efficiency from 1 foot away instead of 1 meter, like everyone else, that would be misleading and inaccurate wouldnt it?

    that was even stupider then your first statement. How an org meters has nothing to do with science and there is NO standard since you have multiple orgs that meter different ways.

    Just quit hatin cuz the kid posted up an outlaw score. I don't meter my set up sealed since it likes to break windshields, so my score isn't scientific or accurate I guess LOL

  9. My wall for 4 15's was 17^3 net. Seemed to work out pretty well as it was very musical, did hair tricks at 29Hz and did 59.5 legal, 62+ outlaw...

    For 18's I prefer 6cubes net as I've done a few AQ/DD walls like that and they all kill for demo's and put up solid numbers...
