sounds good man!!! ;D just tryin to learn as much as possibleno prob its just i was going to do something on cad so it will take a bit longer to draw it, turn it to jpeg, then host it and post it hehheill be on the forums from time to time but it will take a sec to do all that ^^ ill get to it.
-
lol, take your time, thanks again man ;Dill draw that diagram and explain it all later...im busy this morning (at work) and i need me some caffy.

alright, more stupid questions of the day... :-i was reading and saw that you are contemplating getting a second 360.2, what would be the difference if you did? why is your crossover still necessary if you put in the 360? i thought the 360.2 is a equalizer and crossover in one?? last thing is, i see that the 360 has L and R front and rear outputs, also a sub and center. Did you use a y-adapter to attach the sub, cause it only has one input??? ???
-
yeah, if you have the time, and don't mind, i would really appreciate a diagram so i could better understand, thanks!!!passive would be when you send out a signal from your amp and you let your PASSIVE crossovers do all the work (like the ones that come with the seperates). Full active means i have NO passive crossovers at all. Everything is crossed over electronicly or "Active". Its a four way "active" because i have it set up like this..80hz down 18's (bd1500's)90hz - 900hz 6 1/2's (bandpassed at crossover) (Punch 700)900hz - up 4's (Punch 200)3300hz - up 1's (Punch 200)also between 90 and 3000k it is bandpassed on the RF 360....i can draw you a diagram to explain it better if it doesnt make sense. I know one thing my system sounds LOVELY right now!! I love the RF 360.2!!!I
-
ok, these may be some stupid questions that i should probably already know, but what is the difference between passive and active crossovers? and when meade says "you can go 4 way active" what does that mean??? ???keep your eye on the for sale section, im almost 100% positive im sellin it.....along with the 6XS. With this combo you can go 4 way active (like i am now). It has the DDC to go with it (look in my tahoe pics to see what it looks like)
I have boxes, books, everything to go with the DQS and its a nice unit...ill let you know.

Ditch the cap btw.....................
Once again, just my 0.02
caps gone!
i know i know, but i don't know if my stock 90A alt can support 2 batts, what do you guys think???
-
I saved it off the USACI SQ Website way back. I guess it's still on there. I thought it should be something I would want to refer back to.
That was good thinkin to save that. I went on the usaci website but i didn't see it. anyway thanks for the response.

hey kingsuv, i remember seeing a chart similar to the one above. if you don't mind me askin, where did you find that chart? ??? thanks
-
ahhh very good question.
probably would be better to do it closer to the alt, since it is making the power for the batt to charge.
Awsome thanks man!!! Would you happen to know where i can get the fuse size for a certain gauge wire. I know i have seen a chart for it before, i just don't remember where....
-
Dont you need a fuse on the power wire from the + on the battery to the alternator?
alot of people do, and Its probably the safer route.
I didnt in my van, but I took extra care to make sure my wiring is safe and out of the way of moving parts.
If you were to fuse between the alt and the + battery. Is it better to fuse closer(within 10") to the + battery, or closer to the alternator ???
-
You can usually find these products at local body shops. Some brand names are Dyna-glass, Duraglas, and Everglass. You also may be able to search and buy them on the internet, although there may be extra shipping charges if they are considered a hazardous material...Where can I buy some of this kitty hair, can you list some places where i can buy kitty hair. Do you guys know if home depot carries it or places that sell it
-
It is body filler that is reinforced with resin and short chopped strands of fiberglass inside of it... ;D
-
Lookin great meade, i can't wait to see it done!!! ;D What is the coating that you are using on the inside of the box? and you ever think about shaving the door handles, or license plate?? imo that would make it look super smooth, and you can keep the people outside of your car outside, without them jumpin in when you don't want company
-
Yeah, close. I don't know how to describe it that well in words but, lets say you want to weld a 90 degree steel joint... With welding you are actually melting the edges of the steel while adding steel to make a super strong joint. With soldering you are not melting anything but the solder that you will be using to join the wire to the terminal.. i hope i explained it well
-
How's it done differently than crimping?
Crimping is done with a crimping tool (like a plier), some people use vice's, vice grips, etc. You would basically be squeezing the wire to attach it to the terminal. Soldering is done with either a pencil torch, or a soldering iron/gun, and you use solder which maybe a combination of lead or iron (although many electrical solders are lead free) and kind of weld the wire to the terminal. thats the difference between the two..
-
bump..also, any progress on the 3 alt's? can you even get a big enough belt for those ???
-
^^^^ x2, those 4000's are gonna be so nice!!!
why don't you buy me a couple of them? maybe like 4? then you could throw in an Escalade, 4 MT's, some 24's and call it my early christmas present ??? -
Ok thanks, let me get this straight.... the bolt in this picture with the washers is where you run your power wire to either the front battery, or rear batteries. And you ground to the aluminum piece that you had cut out as it is the alternator bracket correct ???
-
hey meade, this may be a dumba*s question, but where do the wires coming off each alternator go? i know one is probably ignition, maybe one to a gauge ???if each wire, i think there are 4 of them go to a certain place, do you just solder all 3 of them together (from each alt) and connect it to the needed location or how is it done??
thanks -
when you compete and your serious about it, you will blow subs and other equipment for that matter, no matter what the brand. On the daily, with a hard beating on 8 amps.......one modded bd1500.1 on each coil (.7ohms) they really slam. I can go all day up to a certain volume level. If i go too far up the volume i have been known to get them hot and yes, back off a notch if you smell them........just like ANY sub. Its been a long time since ive had any trouble with my subs though and believe me i beat the hell out of my shit every single day at one point or another. You do have to be carefull just like with any sub but i dont think its as bad as some people might say.
When it comes to being musical, again, just like any other sub or even SYSTEM configuration...your gonna have your songs that dont sound right and others that are out of control loud and CLEAN sounding. Everytime ive ever redone my system or retuned a box, the lineup of stuff that sounds good changes so its no big deal. I love the way my MT's sound.
To answer the spider question, i have triple spiders on mine, i imagine the extra spiders keep the sub from launching the sub out of the basket from all the power they can take....
sounds good! thanks meade!!! ;D
-
lol... i think that is funny, smelling them and then turning them down. anyway, what is the benefit of having stiffer spiders?
any other subs that you know of that could match the output of an MT, but is not affected by overheating? preferably and 18" of some sort.. maybe solo x, apx, etc....
-
thanks for the replies... i would be using it daily, but how does meade, as well as others get away with it as a daily system? I know that people also say that they are not musical, but from seeing meades system as well as others at shows, they seem to be more than able to play musically..
what's the deal with the spiders, some people have triple or quad thick, what's the difference ???
-
I was thinkin of getting a re MT, but i have heard that people have been having problems with over heating, due to the fact that the backplate isn't vented. Have any of you had any overheating issues with the mt's?
i know since the sale of re to us amps, the prices have gone sky high. anyone recommend a dealer or have any hookups with some decent prices? i was lookin into an 18 or 15? ???
-
sounds good, thanks ;D

that is a crazy number, but i was kinda dissapointed... i thought they were gonna do somethin like put 20 subs in a car and make it explode, or somethin cool like that :-
