Oh Look! Another Box Question!
bigjoe302boss replied to BigPimpin91's topic in Subwoofers / Enclosures
titebond 3 ftw, 1 3/4 screws for a lil extra bite, a pilot hole bit (slightly smaller than screw diameter for a tight fight, and maybe counter sink the holes and flush it all up a lil) oh and prolly gonna take more than an hour and a half too. -
you should definately be in the 130+ range with that much power and a set of dc 10's. I have a friend that did a 126 with a single 10 and 100wrms in a sealed box, so think if you have 2 10's thats around 3dbs for doubling cone area and prolly 5 more for having that much more power.

Customizing Woofer Cones?
bigjoe302boss replied to smokeumtires's topic in Fabrication, Fiberglass, Etc
I have painted subs myself and found not one single thing wrong with it, it sounded good and lasted. You know how to properly prep a truck for paint, so don't slouch on preping the sub and you will have a lasting paint job. Also if you armorall your interior, you should clean the subs a few extra times because the silicone floating around and all from spraying it. just my two cents though. -
New Years Resolutions
bigjoe302boss replied to kingsuv's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
I want to lose a few pounds and get more chicks (hotter ones too) -
Yes absolutely, you should run an amp on mids and highs if you want them to go loud, also set up your amp to be loud at lower volume so you don't have distortion if that makes sense. the reason you aren't getting loud now is that there is too much of a draw on your headunit for 8 speakers, I have an 89 trunk (check it out if you want) and I only run the 3.5s in the dash off the HU, and the 6.5 2-ways and 5x7 2-ways off of an alpine 4-ch amp, and let me tell you this, I never turn it over 1/2 volume cuz its way loud. I would definately opt for the Fi Q and a hifonics bxi1606 if you want to keep the price low, but you might be a lil louder off that amp with the SSD. Hope I helped in some way.

I completely feel your pain, I have done it too, thats whay I had to notch the back for the trunk spring and 45 the top corners so that the trunk would close because I measured way too close on my box in my mustang. If the box is just too big for the opening, try designing the box so that it could be sectioned and assembled in the trunk like chevyboy said, unless you can afford the airspace to angle it so that you can fit it in or something along those lines.

Can Someone Help Me Layout My Mids/highs?
bigjoe302boss replied to mrwigglezdj's topic in Mid's and highs
I always check at the12volt.com, they have a parallel and series calculator, it would be .8ohms parallel and 20ohms series, so that might be a lil difficult to achieve unless you used a crossover on one 6.5 and tweet to seperate the power and still pull 4 ohms, and that would be 4x4oms=1ohm paralleled. If that helps any. -
Oh, and lets not forget, anything audio with chrome on it will be at least 3dbs louder due subsonic frequencies that bounce off it. Don't forget that if your amp says 3000 watts and you paid $150 for it, that it will put out 3001 rms too.

bigjoe302boss replied to Big P's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
I lost my gramps last week, and have always been a big scrooge because I used to be lucky to get nething for christmas and never got to be with all my family at one time because they live so far away. So I ain't hatin on christmas for what it stands for, but for what it does to my spirit every year, I always feel in the dumps at this time of year. That is until all the drinking on new years starts and I forgetaboutit. -
Have 380 Bucks For An Amp...what Is Best?
bigjoe302boss replied to Jordan92790's topic in Amplifiers
You should try the rockford t10001bd like they said, it benches at about 1500 rms and you can get a new one off ebay for that price, or you could get a refurbed one for a lil less and save a few bucks. Also ebay has mtx elite te1501d for 388 plust 30 shipping, I have heard good things about them too. -
Making A Change
bigjoe302boss replied to king-chi1's topic in Ground Pounders - Earth Shaking and still Driveable!
What kind of 12's are they and what is the recomended airspace for them? The wall would be louder if it was ported with a few more cubes, but if you must go subs up port back, are you going to keep it under the window line? -
The F*ck That Post
bigjoe302boss replied to meade916's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
I was at a party last night and a buddy bugged the hell out of me to ride my ninja. He flipped it end over end and totaled it and broke his leg and 2 ribs. FUCK THAT. -
Steve does, and he said he gained when he swapped em out.

I Want 1 Of These
bigjoe302boss replied to basshead's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
who doesn't want a glock with a 200 round drum. I wish he would have flipped it around and used all the bullets lol. -
I would get a pair of those too, the price did go up recently but they are bad lil subs. I have a friend with a pair, and they surprised the hell out of me.

Steve is my hero, lol. I am like most people on this site, not one to hate, just here to learn from all the combined experience and knowledge this site has to offer. I for one am dissapointed in the azzhole that posted that because he didn't try to be friends with Steve and maybe learn from him, and even Steve takes tips from people, you can't ever know enough right? But, yeah someone needs to light a bag of crap on that dudes doorstep for hidin behind his computer and callin out Steve like that.

I am with you Ku-sama, I love havin a bangin system, but deep bass doesn't replace the feeling of "warm apple pie" (homeade of course). -
X2 I love the looks of the s2k but I drove my friends lil ss cobalt (faster than my stang too) and waxed the ass of an s2k on the interstate, once he squated and took off, I crammed it down in 3rd, dumped the clutch and boosted the hell out of it, leaving the honda sad and in the rearview lol. But nice car though.
