I rarely see the SMD being ran at 3500w! I have a SAZ3500 @ .35 and it sounds GREAT all the way up! But it does want more power! I am getting a DDz2 on it and wire it up to 1.4 to be safe! It should be under 7k with rise! But a .35 burp will be tempting! What's the most you've put on one?!?!
-
And what is the magic box size and tuning frequency for the SMD 15"?!?!

I'm subbed! In the same "boat"

More battery reserve.
^this. batts > alts.
id rather run a larger amp @ 1.4 instead of trying to overwork ur amp @ .35, u have more thd & current draw.
That too! I'm looking at a Cactus 5k to run at 1.4 ohms while I build my electrical up, just wondering how it will do at .35 when I get a bigger alt., and/or more batts!
I realize I will need at least a few more batts if I do this...

LOVE the port btw, where did you get it? and get it colored?
Thank ya'll for the help!
I got the port from Lowes! Yep, PVC with a coupler that I flared and painted..

I also have an Epic 160, and I did wire each "side" of the amp to each coil so I should be @ .35 ohm

Hey ya'll! I finally got my system in,
4 runs of 0ga., 2 pos., and 2 neg., still got grounds everywhere, the big 3, an Iraggi 300a alt., a yellowtop under the hood, and a XS 3100 and a 3400 in the back. I got a voltmeter hooked up to the amp power inputs.
I have a SMD D.7 on a SAZ3500D and it will down to 12v .
I was wondering if I should spend my money on dual alt setup, Iraggi said he can do one for my Grand Prix, or another XS3100 and a 3400 for the front?!?! Either will be about the same amount of money, what will be best?!?!? Thank ya'll!!

Yes, a few peeps told me not to have my port close to the back wall of the box.This install tops all the rest you have done! Mad props to the master!
I have a similar build going on with an aeroport and a few people said the port sould be 5-6'' away from the back wall.
Yours looks closer, is there any truth to the 5-6'' "rule"?
gotta ask.... back wall of what ....... the enclosure?

What color is the voltmeter?
-
I saw some of the pics on Facebook and I'm doing a similar re-rebuild in my car, what is that under the motor? Just a block of wood? here is a pic of my box ( on it's back, checking fitment of the sub)

Everybody (and Jacob himself) says the amps are pretty stable down to a half ohm. I will monitor it closely!!!
And I saw that with aeroports you don't need as much port per cubic ft.
-
I'm hoping "box rise" should put me around 1 ohm...
-
your tuning is fine.that things a beast i bet it still reaches down and jiggles your balls more than you would think. tuning stupid low is another common misconception. You dont need to tune super low to play low if you have good gear.
Got another batt coming, and I will have a voltmeter at the amp inputs. Is that what you mean by good gear?
-
Cool, I was thinking 35ish is right in the middle. And I saw somewhere you don't need as much port area per sq. ft. with aeroports. And they save a little space since I have barely over 4 cu ft gross. The specs for the SMD say 2-4 cu ft..... but it also says 7000w max, lol.

I will be running a 15'' D1 SMD in the trunk of my Grand Prix @ .5 ohms off a SAZ3500, a XS D3400, a XS D3100, an Iraggi 300a AD244 alt, with 4 runs of 0ga (2+ and 2-) and was wondering if the dimensions are good enuf. The tuning frequency is a little high, but I was going to try adding a 10'' extension with a coupler to go down to 29htz. I am more concerned with the overall specs. Thank ya'll for any advice!

Dammm! 6.5 hrs from Norfolk...

Subbed to the topic, I'm getting ready to re-rebuild!!!

This guy, Geoff C. (AudioAnonymous on here) https://www.facebook.com/jankiesmile#!/AudioAnonymous Can make coustom bussbars fast and cheap!

I always face forward, speaker towards the ears!
Want lower bass, tune the box lower...
-
Love them both!!! AA !!!
FTW

I got a used Iraggi large case AD244 alt to see if it would fit in my Grand Prix, it works, still does, but I don't have my substage in....
-
I was hoping someone knew some way to make it work! Thanks for the e.mail Nate! Keep us all informed of when the XS Gear becomes avalible!
