  1. Equipment:

    Addictive Audio 500.1 @ .67 ohms

    PPI BK800.4

    7krms is for cushion

    This is for a daily set up, just want to stay in the high 12s and low 13s full tilt on music.

    Have a 270a alt, not sure what it does at idle, but it will be played while driving so idle is no biggie.

    What im looking to do is see what I would need, basically trying to refresh my reserve.

    I dont want this to factor in, but for whatever it is worth, will probably have dual 270's in the near future.

  2. It looks damn good inside looks nice but damn 180k miles thats a ton

    no it isnt. The national average is 15k a year, 180k is just over 16k a year average. Then depending on if it highway miles or not, stop and go, etc. My truck had 204k when I got it, 224k now, still runs like a champ. As long as a vehicle is taken care of, regular oil changes, little maintenance and greasing, it will last until the floor rots out.

    edit: info has changed a bit, here is the info link. 20-54yrs old is 15k. If it had a male owner, 16k a year is under driven by this standard.

  3. ok aside from the obvious that i did everything wrong.. woofer still plays my concern is do i need a recone ? im not gonna play music on it untill i get evrything right .. i have an oscope on the way someone replied in the other post saying that the coil might have been bubbling? anyone is familiar with that ?

    the bubbling i stated in the other, i saw first hand, and Rusty explained it to me (the owner of DC). The massive heat build up can cause gasses while the resin/glue starts to melt and evaporate on the windings, with the flatwound coils, there is no where for this gas to go, so it takes the path of least resistance, the aluminum former, which it will bubble out and create a ridge all the way down to the bottom of the former where it can escape. this ridge can touch the pole and cause a rattling sound.

    your problem might be this, it might not, but a recone is probably the only thing to fix your said "rattle".

    man if i have to recone 1 i might as well just recone both to upgrade them ( i have 2 woofers i had only 1 playing)

    if you cut the dustcap off without hurting the cone, looking down to the pole and coil will be your best bet.

    if you have the issue i stated above, you will see something like this....

    which kind of dustcap do you have?

  5. wow, by what you posted you were doing quite a few things poorly and wrong. double rms, shitty electrical, gain at half (whatever that means). Half gain doesnt mean half power. If you gain is just over what it should be, you can be sent into heavy clipping.

    The rattle you hear i think is bubbling of the coil. Had it happen to me on a level 5 m1 when i clipped it to shit. The former bubbled out from heat build up and it not being able to escape the flatwinds of the coil, so it bubbles out the former and causes it to rub on the pole.

  6. Would personally ditch those and get an lc1

    x2 LC-1 over stock bass knob/gain knob any day.

    if something goes wrong it is also just a 20 dollar replacement, rather than sending an amp in due to some failure in either the knob or the actual input to the amp where it plugs in.

    edit: plus with an LC-1 you can completely cut the bass off if need be.

  7. the xbox 360 at release was 399. 499 for the new xbox one is too much??? seriously? LOL

    it would be one thing if it was $100 and you didn't get the kinect with it but your pretty much paying for the kinect

    do you not realize you are getting with the xbox one vs. the 360?

    http://www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/xbox-one-vs-xbox-360-spec-showdown/

    yet you want to blame 100 price increase solely on kinect with you are getting a better processor, bigger HDD, better graphics card, better USB slots, better CPU, better GPU, blu ray drive, etc. LO FUCKING L.

    So there are 2 cpu's and 2 gpu's?

    1 of each.
