  1. leaky box = subs play funny?

    you always answer my dumb questions so quickly lol :)

    but yeah i dont know a whole lot about " loadin issues " but i wish i could figure it out, i DMM'd the subs before i put in the box and all hte voice coils were reading the same, so i dont think a VC is bad.. the local shop said it could be something to do with my box being a common chamber and causing it to do this.. i REALLY dont want to build another box, lol pain in the ass taking my seats out like 4 times

    i know i ask alot of dumb questions,

    but my box is leaking a bit, my sub closest to the port hits almost like normal, and the other one doesnt move near as much as the other sub, they hit at the same time though.

    but i was thinking that maybe the leaky box is causing them to act wierd? tomorrow im going to pick up resin and try to resin the whole box in side to seal it up completely, and the leaky box should be the cause of my subs not hitting very good on the low notes, thought its tuned to 33hz? there still rediculously loud for what im used to, but id like to fix this all before the comp next month.

    well if you read my sig, im running a Hifonics BRZ2400.1D @ 2 ohms, so 1700RMS to 2 15" RE SX subs ported.

    Well if I wasn't on my iPhone then I would read your sig! And if you'd read the "wire/fuse guide" in the electrical section then you wouldn't be asking us this dumb fucking question... Have a nice day smart ass

    lol seriously dude? I didnt mean the " well if you read my sig " in a smart ass manor, it may have come out like that, but was not intended. forums are to discuss and ask questions so fuck off.

  12. subs not hitting right?

    hey guys i have a question, its hard to explain but ill do my best.

    my 15's share a common chamber ported box, when im playing, the sub closest to the port moves no problems just like it should, but the sub farthest from the port hits in time as the other sub, but not nearly as hard. like for example when playing White girl-young jeezy, at those low notes, the sub closest to the port is moving like crazy, real good excursion ( for what im pushing ) and the other one isn't doing much at all, but when its a bass-kick? they hit at the same time.. so i dont think there out of phase.. local shop said it might be my box because its common chambered. any ideas?

  14. dd 1508 or 1510 or 1512

    12 is much bigger than an 8. Its not a difference of just 4" since you are talking about a circle. The average 8" is 50.27" of cone area. A 12" is 113.1". Go with the 12", it should be much louder. As for box, the daily factory dd box means what? I hope you mean you are building it to spec.

    well at the shop, they have all the dd 15 series subs in Digital Designs ported boxes, basically a prefab box that has a DD Design all over it im guessing? but the guy working at the shop has the same box the dd 1512 im looking at comes with, but he upgraded to the 2512 series and he really likes the box, so im going to assume its built to dd spec?

    so, in like 2 minutes i've decided im going to buy a DD 1508/1510/1512 tomorrow, or the next.

    basically tehy will be off a Orion HCCA 1200 or something ( i think ) basically does 1200@ 1 ohms, not sure about 2 ohms, and like 450@ 4ohms, i belive. but anyways.

    i will be running whichever sub in the factory DD box for music, and will be making a SPL burp box for competing. basically i was wondering would there be a significant difference between the cone sizes? i know there the same motors etc, but competing wise would a 12 have a big advantage over a 8 with everything being the same? i would love to get a 8 and make it burp 130+ but i'd hate to not spend the extra 40$ and get a 12 and be louder lol

    which would YOU get?

  16. dd 1508.. hmm

    well in my daily driver its just to work and back, normally i listen to the radio cause personally i like the radio around here, but i do intend on competing, im entering my truck next month in a local show even though ill be in the " extreme class " or whatever he called it, competing with someone that has 6 dd 9510s LOL, but i just wanna switch it up and try stuff out, i would keep the factory DD 1508 box for music, and build a small burp box with a nice aero port extendng out of the box, they had a box there with a DD 6.5 sub and it hit harder then my jbls hahaha

    yeah well my car has a kenwood crap amp, and 2 10" JBL's in a bandpass box that came with it when i bought it.. i could get like 200$ for them and honestly i think the DD1508 would be louder then the crap jbl's i got haha not to mention if i burp it and people will be surprised its an 8 haha but i haven't heard them, the shop showed me a DD 9510 on there little display in side, and WOW. lol

    hey guys i just went to a local shop for the first time, and they have brand new DD sub lines etc in now, im REALLY thinking of getting a DD 1508 or 1510 and a Orion 1200monoblock, they are giving me a pretty sweet deal, i'd get the subs ( In the DD factory box ) and the amp for less then 500$ and i have the wiring etc, and i hear you can hit 140+ Db with these little suckers on burps? lol i have my 15's in my truck so thinking of making a burp box for my daily driver car :D

    basically im asking what do you guys think, would i be impressed with this DD 1508/1510? or would i be wasting my time, never heard a DD sub in my life

  22. First day of ground pounding.

    in Ground Pounders - Earth Shaking and still Driveable!

    Posted

    well, i dont compare to you other real ground pounders, but around where im at im the loudest and lowest in my town haha,

    but today was my first day with my system installed, and wow,

    i broke my Rear View mirror off my window today, and shook my door panel loose hahah :D

    also, i was in my yard messing around with some songs, and my cousin was sitting in my Mazda Mx-3 and it was right beside me, about the same distance as you would be sitting at a red light, with all windows up, and he had mirror flex and steering wheel flex!!!

    IM LOVING IT!

  23. NEW RE SXX 12IN SUB

    im running 2 15" RE SX's in my dodge ram, ported to 33hz and they slam! and they sound real nice too, only had them for a day, but so far im in love. but yeah why would you sell HCCA's to go to sxx's? and pick up older SX model instead of the new SXX's i hear the new stuff isn't good

  25. 1998 dodge ram 1500 2 15" re build

    it is DONE! i know the box isn't finished but ive been putting off this build for months for some reason lol, going to upgrade the battery, run 1/0 awg to the amp, and do the big 3. first comp is next month so hopefully i can break in the subs enough by then to compete, and maybe upgrade to a .5ohm stable amp to get the full 2k rms , didnt think about the downfall of buyin D2 subs lol

    but it sounds AWESOME! one sub is still like brand new and really stiff, so i cant push it to much. but i move hair a bit, steering wheel flex, roof flex, its so sick. tuned to 33hz sounds awesome to me!

    i can upload videos too! my Flip ultra HD doesn't capture flex too well though :S
