Is it a reason most people choose 15's over 18's besides the space issue?

yea tell that to people like steve running 4 18s and their response time is fine... maybe in sq but spl?
-
ACUTALLY, bigger cones will distort less than smaller cones, period. The whole "slow" thing is a myth. You have 50+ lb motors will tons of strength so why would they have trouble moving an 18" paper cone?
-
i wouldnt call it a myth. but back int he day the motor wasnt strong enough to drive the cones like it is now. You could hear a difference between woofer sizes. ITs the whole tens are tighter thing. of course its no longer the case iether.

Its that time of the year people. I know everybody got some plans for that Tax Return. So what's your plans?

Its what happens when you pay extra all year and claim zero...somewhat of a forced savings..money I missed out in paychecks. Most going to eliminate debt before I leave next month
-
Orion I'm surprised you dont get a big return..being married is the only reason mine is larger..last year I got about 900 or so back
-
When me and the wife first got married, our return was usually around $1100. Being Mil to Mil made it hard for us to get anything back once we made rank. Until we had our daughter.

Just got back from Fi Headquaters meeting Shawn and Scott.Two of the coolest guys I have met.Got me some Fi goodies and a FI order placed for some real real nice goodies

Just read this on FaceBook. gave me the LoL's "Request- I am looking for a voltmeter like steve meade's VM-1. I refuse to give that ass any business or represent him in any way. I was hoping someone could point me in the direction of a voltmeter similar to his because I do like the functionality of it. Hoping someone on here may know of one , thanks in advance!"

Aren't these guys one of the dedicated UK suppliers for the dd-1 over there? http://www.bladeice.com/

box they'll have to vat twice if they order through them
-
vat twice? Italy and the UK are in the EU so no import duties apply
-
Just say no to clamping huh? So what about clamping alternators?Is that still okay?
- Show previous comments 6 more
-
The whole clamping is bad only pertains to when you use more than one meter like you do when 'clamping' an amp. You have your clamp jaw for the power wire on the amp, DMM for the voltage on the speaker outputs, DMM for the voltage of your amps power and maybe a clamp for your speaker wires. With all those different meters there will be variations in the results they achieve. Think of it like turn signals on a car. If you and your friend turn them both on at the same time, for awhile t...
-
So going off what you said whatever I get with my Extech meter should be accurate? It does all the math for the above and gives you your power output right on the screen.
-
Alternator output is DC and therefore OK to clamp.
Amplifier output is AC and speakers are reactive (inductive) so the voltage and current from the amp are out of phase by some amount.
Therefore you can't use two separate meters and multiply the peak readings.
Power is an instantaneous measurement, so the voltage and current must be multiplied at the exact same time...or you need to know the phase angle and do the math.
The AD-1 is nice in that it stops measuring at 1%...

Last show of the season and I closed out on a high note.Took first place overall with a season high 152.9 on the TL. First overall loudest at a show this season.Also took home top 3 Dub Style and of course biggest rims . Another awesome Italian CarShow and Weekend. Next time the Avy will be on show, she will be stateside and maybe a 2013 model
-
Where the fuck were all these shows when I was over there?
-
Dude its almost a show every weekend during the season.It was 2 this weekend so had to pick which one to attend since it was my last. Of course had to shoot for the biggest one and it turned out to be a really good show that I did really good at . Did you ever get that wire?

No, I work at a paper mill. Was gonna go USAF but found out if you have asthma they dont want you.
-
Yeah Im Air Force and I heard that before but I have met people who have asthma and still in some how. I think they lied on their App and then just brought it up later in their career.
-
Called a medical waiver. Prior USAF here. Anywho, working 0800-1600 (typically) then 2200-0600. Mon-Fri. What's up? And you were saying?
-
Maybe parting out the Avy's system here soon. Got plans to do something different outside of car audio.

Curious to know what the new "interest" is.
-
I know ken, ill bet speed
-
I want to know the new project as well please.
-
My alternators are out for delivery.Their coming back from DC Power getting externally regulated and also I have the new Quad Alt bracket coming with them.Now to get this wire situation straighten out

*scrolling through SMD, see 'Quad Alt bracket'*
You've got my attention lol
-
I got pictures now LoL!!!
-
Pictures posted in my build log for those that want to see the goodies
-
Okay power upgrade question.How many alternators and what size would I need to run 2 9k's on 14 D3100's? Im looking at 3 DC Power 320SPX-i alts or 3 DC 370xp alts.I could run 4 but i wanna still kepp my stock charging system stock unless i have to change it.Thought!!!!

Sleep, work, sleep, school, wife, school, repeat.
No time for build
-
Well see there, your priorities are all fucked up Ken! Get with the program! LMAO! Speaking of no time to build, you going to AR in Feb?
-
I know everybody has different priorities and its easier for single people to splurge on whatever. Us with families shouldn't have a car full of top dollar gear but yet we find ourselves living paycheck to paycheck. Its okay to save to get what you want instead of trying to ball with the big dogs LoL.
