Interesting results with doing the second door and putting the door panels back on: 155.0 dB -- Base-Line Score this morning 154.9 dB -- Base-Line with driver door panel and vapor guard off 155.3 dB -- 1st Layer on Driver Door 155.2 dB -- Put 5.25 speaker back in (not hooked up) 154.8 dB -- Removed Passenger door panel and vapor guard 155.1 dB -- 1st Layer on Passenger Door (with speaker installed and not hooked up) 155.3 dB -- Put passenger door panel back on 155.1 dB -- Put drivers door panel back on So... weird stuff is going on. Frequency may have changed with both of the door panels on. It had not changed with both door panels still off + both doors dampened but I have not went back through the frequency range since putting the panels back on.

My main 1/0 power is Kolossus Fleks. The Knu stuff is more flexible than any of the other hyper flex stuff - but I get Stinger wire from a local dealer when I need it in a pinch and don't want to wait.

Stinger HPM Flexible stuff.

Hard to say - I am re-designing the Monster motor for a v.2 prototype so it could take a bit still.

Almost forgot to mention... This is only one layer so far, I will be testing two layers.

All I can say is WOW so far... 155.0 dB -- Base-Line Score this morning 154.9 dB -- Base-Line with door panel and vapor guard off Since the holes in my door are TINY I decided that it would be nearly impossible to do meaningful dampening to the outside skin... so I am going to use both layers INSIDE. * Small access holes - and there is alot of crap blocking access to the front 1/2 of the door and top half of the door. * I used two full sheets of dampener and one small piece from another sheet. *DRUM ROLL* HOLY CRAP. I gained 0.4 dB compared to the door skin off score and 0.3 dB from the base-line score with the door skin on from this morning. Even going by the high 155.1 dB from the other day that is still 0.1 dB PER SHEET of Damplifier Pro! Apparently my Jeep likes to have these holes sealed up.

This motor will end up as the Nightshade v.2 probably next year. Motor force is down from expected and is nearly identical to the current Nightshade - but thermal power handling is higher.

53 Hz is where I was loudest with the previous enclosure -- and that held for the old dual and single box when I tested after dampening. At 53 Hz the single 15" Nightshade got up to 154.3 dB

Burped it fresh today (last test at 154.9 was 10th burp of the day) and with SAX-50.4 un-hooked : Not bad! Still @ 47 Hz at the moment.

Haha, they probably aren't Gary I ordered some air shocks too!

* Nice shiny new gas tank! * New fuel filter as well... the old one was almost rusted apart *laughs*

I know - please e-mail me for contact : [email protected] I watch about 10 forums a day so I often forget to check my PMs so I just let it fill up here.

Some pics of the new box and amp rack : * New box position in the back * The 3000s in place - with box slid up against the rack * I put a piece of tape across to make sure I stayed behind the b-pillar This is what I will be using the test my door dampening at high pressure levels 154.9 dB @ 47 Hz so far.

Sent you an e-mail back.

It is quite possible that I will have these next week.

Just got the hoses in today. Will try to get it all back together tonight to resume testing and hopefully make it to the Saturday NSPL show.

Indeed I need to make some new ones and include the Jeep!

Yep, they are quite large

The refurbished amps have a 1-year warranty - the ones on e-bay have 90-days.

x2 - Email me if you want 4x Z15s and a 3500D combo [email protected]

TTT - these are going FAST.
