  7. SMD VM1 Longevity Question?????

    in D'Amore Engineering - High Quality Car Audio Installation Tools & Accessories

    Posted

    I just had my VM-1 installed in my car today. It looks great and definitely is a nice to watch as my voltage changes- lol. But here is my question when my installer put it in I told him to wire it to my rear battery distribution blocks so now when I shut off my car it stays on which is not a problem as for me being worried about it draining my batts. How will the Display hold up doing this?

  9. Setting Subsonic Filter With XL' M2'S

    In my opinion there is no point in tuning lower (28-33hz) if you're just going to cut off the lower end response of the box. I would set it where Cody recommended at 25hz and maybe you can get away less, it just depends on where you start to unload etc.

    Right I understand that the 33hz chip is standard with the audiocontrol piece I was just trying to confirm. The only confusing thing is when I called and talked Audiocontrol they said to keep the standard 33hz chip in since my box was tuned to that. Maybe thats what the sq guys do but I don't know. Any insight on this?

  10. Setting Subsonic Filter With XL' M2'S

    I am currently building a system for my 93 Chevy Caprice. My substage is a Hifonics Colossus 3200 watts RMS amp on 2 XL 15'S M2. My box is right at 6.65 net after all displacements tuned to 33 hz. Here is my question I have a Audiocontrol EQS with a built in 33hz subsonic 18 db octave filter. Keep in mind this works on a chip and is not selectable. I have not hooked this system up yet because I am still buying all my electrical. My question is should I buy a different chip to go with 25, 30 hz or stick with the 33 hz subsonic? How low should I be able to play under tuning without risking damage to the woofers. I really want this set up to be a low end monster

    I have used some soundstream sst-05 in a couple of installs used with compomemt sets and passive crossovers. Did it sound good... Hell Yeah. Loud Yes Sir, But I want Great. I am gonna look at some of your suggestions. AS for EQ I have some options: I currently own a broke Audiocontrol eqs and am thinking about getting it rebuilt but really want to use a Audiocontrol three.2 in dash Eq. I had the older model in the late 90's and loved it. Does Anybody else have any input on this?
