  1. 150db?

    in SPL - SOUND PRESSURE LEVEL

    Posted

    build it and you may test it. no one can tell. waaaay to many factors.

    No, not too many factors? I mean, it shouldn't be too hard to say if 150 db is possible with 2 walled 18s and 4000 rms?

    If its not hard than why are you asking??

    Dude, nobody can tell you. For all we know, you cut holes in boxes and call them ports.

    Build it, test it, than YOU tell us.

    Lol..... Truth.

    Yeah the girl at the end definitely could have been left out. "done a lot of drugs, shit, i've done a lot of thugs" Like stfu and gtfo out of here slut. lol. That by far is my favorite track on the EP though. I'm jealous you've been able to see him live. It's so hard to find time with school and work, plus the closest he gets to me is a little over 3 hours away. I'm so ready for another full-length though later this year. I wore out All 6's and 7's and Welcome to Strangeland. Been putting his Bad Season mixtape and Killer album on repeat lately. lol

  4. New Tech N9ne - Klusterfu*

    The EP was included in Mayday's newest album, Take Me To Your Leader. Wasn't really into them until I bought it for a copy of the EP. Was nowhere near his best work, but for a six-track EP, it wasn't bad. I think the cover song Klusterfuk was hands down the best track on there though. I'm real curious to see what he releases this year as he has to be swamped with touring. HUGE Technician here. :) Have you checked out any of Kali's new stuff from his upcoming album? I've been posting all of the previews in my STRANGE MUSIC topic!

    Well honestly man, you would have a better chance with more pictures. I know if sucks not having anyone put output but if your going to bump bump with things you did.. such as just rewired the power and RCA's to give it a cleaner look, picture, and another picture. Rather than "Bump" people will get annoyed with it, more people that get annoyed with it, less people voting for you.. less people voting for you.. less chance of winning. Now that that's done with, nice setup, was my.. 2nd was a good sub actually for the price had a good thump to it. Keep it up man, more pictures!
    ok thank you for the info. The sub actual sounds really good. idk why people hate on it.

    Your welcome, if it's in your funds I would also try building a box on your own. Would definately help increase your chances. It's a good sub I agree, budget sub at that. People just know there is better out there. Noone really hates on it as long as your not going around saying, Oh my Sony Xplod 1000w max blew out my back window. It would sound alot better in a ported box, seems as if yours is sealed? Didn't watch any of the vids really just caught a glimps of it.

    yea its sealed, if i don't get system of the month, im guna buy new stuff,

    Amp:http://www.sonicelec...rt-FX1.400.html

    Equalizer:http://www.sonicelec...ion-EQS746.html

    DB blocks:http://www.sonicelec...pion-GDBRG.html

    Rca:http://www.sonicelec...by-Scosche.html

    Speaker wire:http://www.sonicelec...e-S-14-250.html

    And as far as your list goes, ditch the EQ and Distro block. No real need for the block, nor the EQ really for what you would plan to run. Then use that extra money to purchase a better subwoofer/amplifier. MUCH better options out there for the money. Even with budget brands, you could afford a nice little monoblock amplifier and a better quality driver for the money.

    To each their own. BUT, I will say for you to wait until you hear another setup for comparison. Until you have something else to compare your own equipment to, then your stuff is going to sound fantastic! lol. An XPlod works for a little beginner setup. Stick around here for a while and read up. Watch some videos and check out some reviews. Look into some of the budget companies/options that are being ran around here. DC Audio Level 3's, Sundown Audio SA-Series, Skar Audio, Audioque SDC line, etc. Save up some cash and upgrade. If you are completely satisfied with what you are running now, you obviously have not caught "the bug" yet. :crazy:

    Either way, props for seeking out a forum to share your interest in the sport. Don't just simply "bump" a little build summary thread. Add pictures or videos of new items or improvements. ;)

  13. DC level 4 m2 15 power handle

    Spec. box at rms vs. adjusted box with more than rms?

    Typically people build smaller and add power to get louder. 3ft^3 per on 2k would be perfectly fine. No offense, this is all just constructive criticism, and I respect you reaching out for help in your situation, but for now, i'd stick to 2k at the most if you insist on running over rms. Without knowing your true experience, i really think you'd be surprised at the results you'd see splitting 3k between the two in 7ft^3 man.

    in Subwoofers / Enclosures

    5ft^3 per sub is going to be way too much if you plan to drive them over their rms ratings. Typically, if you have to ask how much they can really handle, this means you aren't fully aware or comfortable with all of the different variables that actually go into power handling. With an enlosure that large on more than the rated rms you are going to experience unloading issues.

    If I had to give you ballpark figures, you could get away with running 2k per sub if they are in about 3ft^3 per if you insist running more than rms power. And when I say 2k, I mean 2,000 watts of CLEAN power. Good voltage, and proper gain setting would be a must in this situation for you.

  18. Your first amplifier - what was it?

    in Amplifiers

    Posted

    Visonik V308Xt

    Bought it new off of eBay for $34.99.

    4-ohms stable bridged, didn't know any better and ran my old school 15" Petra's Prowlers at 2-ohms bridged.

    That things popped fuses for two years before it actually went. Managed to do a 141.5 sealed in my old car with that amplifier. One of the best $35.00 i've ever invested.

    For amps, again, i only use JL. You could either look down the kenwood route, or other similar brands to get some power for that type R, to keep cost low.

    That advice is meant to be a joke right?

    He's not joking....

    It'll cost you around $75.00 to build your own ported box. That's wood, glue screws, silicone.

    Hit up someone who can get you a free basic box design to work off of. Just make sure you have your subwoofer(s) and amplifier chosen first because different drivers on different power are going to be looking for different box designs.

    I just put together two 12" Kicker CVR's, an 800rms monoblock from MB Quart, and a cheap wiring kit today for a friend for $325.00. If you know where you are shopping you can put together something small and decent on a small budget.

    As far as knowing a friend at a shop... Just buy online with your budget. It's not like you are going to get raped on any shipping charges on anything. And avoid anything JL Audio if you are trying to stick with $700.00. I believe they sell that JL 13.5W7 for something like $700.00 itself.

    For budget look into Kicker, MB Quart, Hifonics, Audiopipe, ebay for wiring harnesses and dash kits.

    For quality budget look for Sundown SA series, DC Audio level 3's, Fi ssd's or q's.

    Just a few tips.

  22. Little DC Audio Hairtrick Attempt

    in Member Videos - Host 'em & Post 'em! System Vids / Off Topic

    Looks nice, love that song.. I slowed it down a little more and it's just right.

    cute girl too. hopefully she's not jailbait.

    Yeah the Decaf version is 26 and 29 iirc. I lose a lot of output at anything below 25Hz. But being tuned to 33 and peaking at around 42, i'm happy with how low it still plays. Summer build will be probably have interchangable ports, one in the 40's for burping (wanted to take a stab at high frequency numbers) and one at either 27 or 28 for daily. This car just seems to like to play low, no matter what I throw in it.

    And no worries, she's not jailbait. We dated a few years back, she's 20 now. Lol

  23. Little DC Audio Hairtrick Attempt

    Decided to attempt a little hartrick today, wasn't really expecting much but decided to film it. This is just my little temporary setup to hold me over until my real build this spring/summer. I am not claiming a full hairtrick, but I was just surprised how much air movement I was getting under the given circumstances...

    2004 Chevrolet Aveo

    15" DC Audio XL M1

    Audiopipe 15001d nominal load reads 1.2-ohms

    I'm running an 80amp inline fuse so after efficieny, voltage drop, and rise i'd be surprised to see around 800wrms.

    Box is 3.1ft^3 tuned to 33Hz.

    Sub up, port back. I wanted to do both back since I wasn't sealing for this temporary setup, but it wouldn't fit with my height limitations.

    Keep in mind this song peaks at 26Hz.

    Just Like P - Webbie (Decaf Version)

    So 33Hz tune, playing 26Hz on about 1/3 of the subs thermal handling. I've always loved the XL series!
