  1. ever since i installed my line driver, i just cant hit the lows all that well. to be honest, it doesnt even seem as loud as it was without it. should i take it out or is there a way i can fix this?
  2. Yeah and about 3 out of 5 other big rim owners. LMAO yep ive seen two people up here in friggin MT with em. one even had a rollpan too. looks like a white version of meades tahoe
  3. lets see how many "dc ftmfw"'s we can get before the second page....
  4. i remember scott sackett was selling level 6 motors a while back for like 500 and building 18s for like 900
  5. they dont advertise neos, level 5 10s, and spl motors either.
  6. yeah. not many of them though and really really expensive
  7. ...dont you only have to be 18 to buy a gun? i think if youre trained to use guns to kill people you should be able to buy weapons. and probably make it easier for a class III license since they use automatic weapons in combat
  8. i just hate how fuckin rude some people are. one of the reasons people join this site is to get help and learn about car audio people but when they ask questions people act like you were born severely retarded and are just complete dicks about it
  9. shit i dont think a lowered speed limit would help too much when alot of people dont even drive the speed limit anyway
  10. ephixa also just released another remix of one of the songs from wind waker.
  11. could be your starter. i had the same exact problem when mine went out.
  12. .....im not sure i could fit a whole post in a sig lol
  13. you can have two different size different tuned boxes (a 6th order)
  14. i accidentally had my box for my xxx 15 tuned to 23 hz and hated it. it sucked ass once it got above like 32. well it all depends on your setup i guess. look at gary killian, his ports are tuned to 24 hz and he peaks at like 26 or something.
  15. x2 if i said anything about t3 here everybody would be like i didnt know rockford mde t3 subs now i thought it was just t2
  16. well this is why im not sure what to do. the sundown site says 1ft^3 is ideal for sealed, but thats on rms power. im overpowering them a little so should i shrink it down or does that not matter with sealed boxes? on d4s one guy told me to do 2.25 per sub but the site says do that for lower power levels, and again, im overpowering them. Give em a cube each after displacement then. A sealed box normally has higher box rise than a ported box. So the actual power that they're seeing is probably a little less than you're thinking. Sealed boxes aren't like ported boxes. They have more cone control due to the fact that the box isn't open, so when the sub undergoes excursion. the vaccum within the box will make the sub work harder. Ported boxes don't have the cone control that sealed boxes due, so you try to recreate the effect by shrinking the box (with more power)and making it bigger (with less power). You won't really know until you try it. And more than likely you're going to get different answers across the board. You can always go big and shrink the box down if you want to experiment, but you can't do vice versa. If you build your first box with the intentions of trying to find the ratio that sounds the loudest or the best to your ears, build it big, and make it easy to dissasemble by using caulking instead of resin or wood glue. Once you find that, after a little trial and error. Build a badass box that you know will work the first try, sound badass, and get loud. well then the minimum i would be able to do would be at least 6.5 cubes (with little to no bracing) and i wouldnt be able to fit that. even if i did build it in the trunk it would be a pretty awkward shape and a little harder to calculate the volume if i wanted to still have it sealed off. looks like im stuck at a 142.0 until i can figure out how i can make my box more efficient . or until i sack up and decide to try burping at .25. 6 cubes Sounds about right for a pair of 12s. 142 ain't bad. You're better off using the proper airspace on a sub than compromising airspace to fit bigger subs. So if it means running 10s or a single 12 to be able to fit a 4th order in your trunk... It can't hurt to try it. Wood is $30 a sheet and time is time. EDIT: Don't burp at .25 ohm. i dont need to have a 4th order, i was just trying to find a way to get bigger numbers im really not sure about that big of a box though. 3 cubes each is even bigger than recommended for underpowering them and im going to be adding even more power soon.
  17. i remember a thread like this a while ago on here. pretty sure youre gonna need a pretty large investment for equipment..
