      what does "act up " mean?

    3. pioneerforlife

      pioneerforlife

      Like telling you the amp is distorted when the gain is barely up. The (without touching the gain) the distortion light slowly fades away

      Yeah I think I even had that experience with a cheap batt like Keith said. Put a proper battery in there, you'll definitely notice a difference in where you can set the gain lol

  2. cant decide if i wanna try strapping at .5 (.25 each) or not.....

      Before you can answer this your next question should be if I blow them can I afford to replace them? There are very few amps that like being ran that low

    4. pioneerforlife

      pioneerforlife

      If they blow, fuck it I got backups, I know they will protect before they blow so if they do I will switch it back. I have seen lots of amps recently ran that low so I may try it. But I'm happy with the output at 2 ohms strapped atm so I might just wait.

  3. Gettin new amps. already got one of them. waitin on the second. also getting caps. will update the log wheni get it all.

      Come on Pioneer little look at amp!!!

    4. pioneerforlife

      pioneerforlife

      Nope. Same subs. They can take 6k no problem. But I am doing a rebuild in the spring so it will be nice to have the power for that. And soccerballzs, I cant show one amp without the other. Its just not the same lol.

  4. i hate having no bass. it'll be worth it though.

      Your lucky I been without bass for about 7 months, because somebody took my sounds.

      ^that sucks that someone would take your stuff. but I'm hopin to have it all finished by April. I prolly wont have both subs until December, then I need some more amps, batts, mids and tweeters. plus supplies to build my box and supplies to build my door panels. like I said though it will be worth it.

  5. having second thoughts about my new build.

      second thoughts about what then? I am out of the loop

    3. pioneerforlife

      just worried it wont turn out well after all the work I have put into it.

    4. Bump4life

      it will, have some faith in your abilities.

  6. well slight change in plans. instead of 2 9515i's, its goanna be 2 9512i's. dont have room for the 15's.

      pioneerforlife

      Its actually a hatchback but still didn't have room for DD 15's. I can fit 15's but those 9515's want a shit ton of air which I can't give them. So the 12's are the best option

    3. Omega5002

      Omega5002

      ditch backseats lol

    4. pioneerforlife

      pioneerforlife

      eventually I plan on 4 15's in a fourth order but that's after high school lol.

  7. so went to a friends house today who hasn't heard my DD 9515 yet so he wanted a demo. he lives in a residential area and i usually dont bump in residential areas but i figured it was only a 30 second demo. anyways, i had the sub playing for not even a minuite when 3 cop cars showed up. luckily we didnt get into any trouble.

      generally that's what I have to do too

      Tribe Called Bass

      for 3 years I had no neighbors, and people across the street sell drugs all day so I'd slam forever and never have a problem with my previous system. Past 2 months 3 neighbors moved in and my next door neighbor just had a newborn baby. FUCK

    4. pioneerforlife

      pioneerforlife

      I know what you mean I usually just find an empty parking lot to bump in

  8. Someone fix my amp. It's only a little fucked up.

      Its not the amps fault at all. This would have happened to any amp I had on the back of that c pillar. That c pillar shook and flexed so much I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did.

      #sssooouuunnnndddssttrreeaaammmmm. J/k I saw what that thing went through and it's definitely not the amps fault Lmao it broke every screw we could find and mount it with

  9. Just realized how long this rebuild is goanna take. Also realised that it's goanna be worth it.

      I've been suffering for 2yrs... maybe that'll give you some hope LOL

    3. pioneerforlife

      pioneerforlife

      damn man thats a long time. its worth it though. if I have learned one thing, its to do it right the first time so you don't have to go back and fix it.

  10. Anyone know what the displacement of a DD 9512i is?

  11. So looks like getting a second amp is going to be put off. The weight of equipment is starting to take its tole.

      No actually my suspension is fine. Its my front brakes. Out of nowhere just took a shit. Started tearing into the rotors. Bought everything to fix it myself then found out that plasti dip will fuse your lugs to the car so Couldn't get them off even with an impact wrench. Oh well. Taking it in Tuesday.

    3. 2loud4uboyz

      2loud4uboyz

      Try pressure washing the plastic dip on your lugs? Just a thought that came to mine.Hope all works out. I feel you on the weight of a big system.

    4. pioneerforlife

      pioneerforlife

      Ya. I mean I really don't have a big system. Its still all in the trunk/hatch. It worries me about when I wall it in the future. Will probably need to upgrade suspension and brakes then.

  12. Had a great time at Slam. Met some new people and heard tons of systems.

      Don't be a douche

    2. pioneerforlife

      pioneerforlife

      ^ of course not. I usually only play it if I am on open road but I was giving a demo to a friend and had it cranked. I try not to bother others when playing music. (don't wanna come across as a douche)

    3. SnowDrifter
  22. so after much debating, i decided to stick wirh the 9515's. i think i have some ideas on how to make the box big enough.

    1. TRTC360

      TRTC360

      you know box size specs aren't set in stone? neither are port area specs, just because everyone says this and that doesn't mean you have to do it, i'm running XFL 12's in 1.5 cubes net per sub, it could be louder but I have no more room to work with soooo yeah.

    2. pioneerforlife

      pioneerforlife

      that was my thought. I was goanna do 2 DD 9515's on 4K in 8 cubes but since I can only do about 6-6.5, I am goanna bump it up to 6K and hopefully that will compensate a bit.

  23. anyone know what a Pioneer DEH-150mp clips at?

    1. ToNasty

      ToNasty

      most likely 61 just like every other pioneer

    2. pioneerforlife

      pioneerforlife

      Alright thanks. I'm goanna dd-1 it eventually but until then I'll work with that.

    1. SnowDrifter
