  9. Motivation :(

    in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"

    Posted

    I've been feeling kinda down lately, nothing serious just regular full time job and full time student stress. Ive been waiting for free time to install my new system and today i've finally had the entire day free but I just sat around and did nothing instead. now the day is almost over because it gets dark at 430 so I wasted the day. My lack of motivation is kinda annoying. Anyone have any ideas of how i can get back on track and be productive again?

  12. swapping out 9515 parts for Z series parts?

    in Subwoofers / Enclosures

    Posted

    i have a 9515 DD, and was wondering on an opinion of if you would swap out the parts of the 9515 DD and make it into a 9515 DDZ, would it be worth it? i have heard 4 15" DDZ's at 1/3 power and i couldnt look straight.. my eyes jiggled of to the sides.

    And i have no idea on the prices for the parts would be, so if you could give me an estimate of how much it would cost to get just 1 15" DDZ running it would be much appreciated.. i heard the coils are like 600 alone

    isnt it an entire different motor structure and stuff? its not like a drop in re cone. im pretty sure its an entire different sub so you would need the entire new motor and soft parts.

  13. aq2200 problems

    Actually I thought about and I just went and looked and at the wire that burnt up and it was a 5 gauge ground. I had a 8 gauge in there rite before I put this amp in.

    5 gauge or 8 gauge, either way if it wasn't 1/0 its not enough for your application. mistakes like this are all part of learning but unfortunately sometimes learning is expensive lol

    yea that was probably not a good idea. an aq2200 is a powerful amp. 8 gauge is def not enough. not sure if you did any perminent damage to the amp, hopefully you didnt. try it with the 0 gauge though because thats what is required

  19. level 4 15 box help

    in Subwoofers / Enclosures

    with one 6 inch aero i can get the port area to 8.5 per cubic foot. torres calculator recommends 9-13 so im still a little below where i should be. with 2 6 inch ports the length would be to long to get the tuning i want. this is my first box design so i expect it to come out pretty bad lol. for bracing ill probably end up using some threaded rod. hopefully it comes out sounding decent at least.

  20. level 4 15 box help

    in Subwoofers / Enclosures

    im designing a box for a dc level 4 15 using torres calculator. the net volume right now is 3.72 after sub and port displacement. im using 2 4 inch aero ports. the port area is only 6.75 per cube but that will increase after bracing is added. I need help figuring out what bracing to do for this box and how to calculate its displacement. i want to 45 the corners but im not sure how to calculate that displacement.

  25. upgrade to aq 1200d?

    ok so currently im running an alpine mrp-m500 at 2 ohms to get 500 watts rms. my voltage even at full tilt stays at 14+ at the amp. my electrical is a kinetic hc1800 and the grounds of the big 3. 1/0 power wire running to the trunk. I want to upgrade to an audioque 1200d wired to 2 ohms and according to aq's website that would be 870 watts rms. I will finish the big three soon. but my main concern is that upgrading this way will just cause voltage drop so that i would probably end up having around 500 watts again. do you think its worth it to upgrade just to get a little more out of my system? can my electrical handle it?
