thanks! i'll have to meter all them and see how it does lol. cause sealed up is deffinetly not near as loud as having a door / windows open
-
im going to a local comp next month, i dont have any chance of winning, but i am going to meter my system
SO i wanted to know what exactly the terms MECA, USACI, OUTLAW etc all mean?
my truck isn't near as loud sealed up as it is with windows down etc. i wanna just get the loudest meter i can, but with doing something legal.
so i can tell people i did a, for example , a 143.1 sealed usaci style or something lol im totally knew to the whole SPL meter game

im running 4guage and 12guage speaker right now too on my 2 15" RE sx's on a hifonics brz2400.1d... i recommend getting 1/0guage power/grounds and 8-10guage speaker wire, im switching mine out for those once i pick up some 8guage speaker wire lol,
also lose the cap and get a extra red top or something cheap. i'm going to do the big 3, run 2 red tops and 1/0 guage power/ground for my BRZ2400.1D... also maybe deaden your vehicle.. and DEFFINETLY build a ported box...thats most of what i can think of
-
i loved the beginning " when you punch yourself in the face... smack!" ive deffinetly done this myself. lol
-
my 1998 dodge ram 1500 is running 1700rms all stock with NO problems, very little dimming or anything. so all depends on vehicle lol.
-
i have the Flip Ultra HD, its overall a good little camera, doesn't pick up flex the greatest, but deffinetly better then a iphone
-
Dependant on how much you can spend, cheaper side go with a kicker ZX750.1, if you got some penny to throw down, I would get the RF T500.1bdcp. SPL scores will change completely from set up to set up. as for batteries, if you're only going to be running one of those amps, you should be fine with a stock battery but the Big 3 upgrade would help. If you do want a battery, XS a yelowtop can do the job.
since when is the kicker zx750.1 the cheaper side! haha!
i was powering my 10" Type R at 1000rms off a Alpine MRP-M1000@ 2ohms, so anything from 500-750rms for you would work easily, dont skimp out on y0our amp, but you dont need to spend 500$ for 500-750watt amp lol , get atleast 4gauge wire, and stock electrical normally is good for 800-900rms or so. im pushing 1700rms on stock electrical ... till about next week
EDIT: i just bought a Orion HCCA 2400 amp ( 1200rms @ 1 ohm, 800 @ 2 ohms ) for 200$.. so theres lots of good cheap choices to work with

I have old style sx's
240 shipped each
D2's
pm me? or got a thread for sale? im really thinkin about this one, are they broke in already? i got a comp next month im going to enter, and my systems loud with one sub being all messed up haha would be nice to have 2 good 15's by then
-
well if there so close to one another i'd rather just buy another RE SX, rather spend 240$ then 480
-
Two upgraded DC Lv4 15s, Kasey (thehoe92) is selling them for $240 shipped each, so it would be under $800 obviously. Hell, may be able to talk him into shipping 4 of them for $800 lol!
hah i wonder how those lvl 4's would compare to the sx though. and i haven't bought anything used online before haha i like buying used that i can physically check out lol
-
why not just get the subs reconed? just curious, the SX is a nice sub
well i have the old SX series subs not the SXX so i wasn't sure they still had my model of sub parts.. maybe i'll look into it, cause ive heard the sx's will outperform the sundown SA-15's and those are pretty bad ass subs lol
im sure DC can recone the original SX... i know they still have recone parts...
the SX and the lvl 4 shouldnt be that much off....
yeah? i just emailed tech support at RE about a recone kit, if they have or sell any. i haven't ever reconed something before so im new to that lol
-
I have SXX's nothing wrong with mine..
not saying anythings wrong with the sxx's just i dont wanna buy a SXX to run with my SX, would rahter have two of the EXACT same subs in a box haha not one of each. my re's are loud as hell for one of them having a voice coil problem i think

so, i have had problems with one of my RE SX 15's. i thought it was the box unloading wrong, but i switched the subs around and its deffinetly something up with one of my subs. but im thinking of switching it up already to some other 15's, i want something newer then my sx's because i plan of walling my truck with 4 15's someday
,
so what do you recommend for 15's other then dc ( dont wanna wait a year ) for under 800$? cheaper the better so i can wall it quicker
but my box is about 8cubic ft tuned to 33-35hz with a pretty big ass port lol. so i think i have alot of options for which 15's to use.. been looking at AQ HDC3's.. thinking of some sundown and fi's as well, or even the newer RE subs what you guys thinkk?
EDIT: will be powered by a Hifonics BRZ 2400.1D , 1700rms@ 2 ohms, 2400 rms @ 1 ohm
-
hopefully your subs dont have the loading problem like mine do wit hthe box design you gave me, doesnt look a whole lot different then mine lol
-
oh yeah? i ended up buying a 1512 in the DD ported enclosure, ill be keeping it in the DD box untill it is broken in, so then i can really let it go, i'll be building a box for burps soon after its broken in.
-
fuuckk sakes. lol. i avoided building that box for like 2 months as it was.. lol, it is probably a box issue though.. maybe ill look around and see if someone has a better design to help me out lol.

Does the port end closer to the subwoofer that hits normally?
yeah the port goes down 14.5" and goes in 11" , the sub that hits good is almost right above the uhm.. L shape of hte port? lol

Hey what's goin on y'all? Just kinda had a random thought about it not hitting lows... y'all don't think it could be a LPF on the amp causing it not to hot lows do you? Nice box tho. At least I think.
i don't think its the LPF, even if it is i can play with that any time and fix that, but really im trying to figure why they aren't hitting right, there in phase but not loading properly. and thanks the box is a little leaky untill i resin the inside.

It really doesnt look like a bad box IMO. What power are you running to subs, and what are the box specs. It's not because it's a common chamber.
its like 50x21x26 i think, im powering with a hifonics brz2400 @ 2 ohms, so there getting 1700rms right now
-
the one closest to the port is right, the one closest to you in the picture ( Farthest from port ) isn't hitting low's at all, or really any constant note. it will hit like kicks along with the other sub.
-
best i got right now, it has been doing this since i installed it, only had it in my truck for not even a week
different ways of metering??

i was messing around in my truck, i sat on the passenger side with the drivers door open with all windows closed and DAMN! was waaay louder that was ( atleast on the passenger side ) then any other way i listened to it lol im deffinetly going to meter it usaci style when i go, im hoping for a 145+.. i heard 9 10" Clarions at a local shop ( was there demo car ) and they played me a 148 on music, and mine atleast sounds like its up there! lol
