bump!!! ONE WEEK!!!! THIS SUNDAY MAY 8th PEOPLE!!!! I will be attending Carlisle with a few friends.

hoping that everyone I know and have met through competitions over the years, in this forum, or in this industry that live in Georgia, Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, Oklahoma Tennessee, Virginia, Carolinas, Ohio and other states hit recently by storms and destruction are all ok... and for those that I may not know... I still wish you all the best and hope for a quick recovery for you all...

bump!!!!

thanks... and yes.. the SPL box (which the SMD is not in) is for SPL only... at 61hz.. This box is one that is EXACTLY 1/6th of what Trippi's Hummer is. I built it for my Dodge ram quad cab. sub up port to the side... its wayyyy to big for the metro... but figured what the hell... I was waiting for paint to dry on some door panels I did for Mr. Gerald Jacoway... and I hate watching paint dry. lol hope you enjoy it.

this is an opinionated thread so you are going to hear tons of different options... here is mine.... biggest question is are you going for overall quality of sound, or for spl? If you are looking for clean, reliable, almost bulletproof performance... I have an SMD 18 in my dodge ram right now and clamped it at 1500 watts and did a 148dB... plays from 20hz to 75hz with not an issue in the world, and it would love to have more power on it... spl... different situation...

ok Nick and Ed are in timeout!

Sunday May 8th at Pulse Car Audio PULSE CAR AUDIO 108a Williamsport Circle Salisbury, MD 21804 (443) 944-0691 www.pulsecaraudio.org who's coming?!?!?! THIS WILL BE A PCA 3x Point EVENT!!!

once things were normal again... i had a blast (until the plane trip home) good to meet all of you! Some told me that they were from SMD... some may not have... but good to meet you!!! next stop with the hummer will be my show April 3rd at Pulse Car Audio... hope to see some of you there!!

1x? 2x? 3x?

Exactly. Of course some of us could get superhero powers from all this too I can't wait to see what my superhero powers are from all this yea or start pissing out of our ears...

ok. I guess it's more confusing than I thought... That is an overlay. we open the hood when it gets to the show (motor cools down) and this goes over the motor when going to car shows they want everything "open"... well he didn't want to spend 12k on turbos, intercoolers, all that jazz... since he doesn't drive it daily... its for show only... I told him to let me come up with something... there it is. it worked. at both oc car shows, and at the funkflex and DuB show... he beat another cavalier that had turbos, etc. done... this was just too over the top for the judges, and so different... he won.

Ok guys... this is a car I did that has won MANY shows... 2009 OC Car Show 2010 OC Car Show 2009 Funkmaster Flex 2010 DUB 2009 RuffRyders Day in the Park 16 tv's (7 under the hood including a 17" monitor) lots of fiberglass, mirror plexi, and hand laid and carved skulls (fiberglass) CHECK IT OUT...

congrats gramps

FIXED. NEW DATE is APRIL 3rd.

wow... didn't know that bro. you know I do second Sunday of each month. argh... we are gonna have to make sure the other isn't doing something before we schedule hahahaha.. its still early... so i could change the date if needed.
