Shitty deal man.
-
Been in your shoes with ampmedics before. Was not a 15k but same point. No packing, amp was in bad shape.
-
Good to know. Its nice having a community for car audio so we can avoid bs like this. Sucks that you can't be reimbursed but posts like this will eventually put them under.
-
gonna run the XXX at .5 ohms. hopefully it wont blow up...

Love Soundstream!!~!

Anything Below 1 loves me
-
well, some bitch ran a red light and t-boned me. car is pretty messed up. amps are all broke. this sucks
-
why is car audio so damn EXPENSIVE!

You've got to also think though. If you weren't into car audio, what else would you really be doing with your life? Idk about you, but it makes working at a job enjoyable for me haha. Gives me a purpose to be there and be happy that I'm working towards something!
-
^^I don't know about you but half the time car audio is what keeps me going.
-
had an awesome time at slam. gave hundreds of demos an met tons of great people. even tapped out for the first time but reclaimed myself later haha. can't wait for next year

hahaha ricco got you good. I'll pass out before I tap lol
-
Haha. It just caught me way off guard. I had never heard anything like it before. It didn't hurt my ears or anything, it was my body. Whenever I would breath in there was a sharp stabbing pain in my chest lol. It was worth it though. It sounded awesome.
-
that jeep was straight up retarded lol

OFC is the way to go.

lol figured you were being sarcastic.
-
thats what most people who run CCA say.. just do more runs.
-
It ends up being about the same price anyways.
-
so, insurance cut me a check for all my amps plus some. funny thing is, all the amps that broke in the accident were temperary amps anyway. i already relaced them. so now i have a bunch of money to spend on whatever.

Good shit!!
-
wow, you got lucky, spend it wisely.
-
well, forget my last post. i finally stopped being lazy and measured for a box design for 2 9515's and found out i wont be able to have enough airspace to run 2. so it was fun while you lasted DD but i may decide not to run DD anymore
- Show previous comments 8 more
-
^^ I may look into that. I have been thinking and talking to some of my friends and all of them like the DD a lot better than any other sub I have had so I am probably goanna stick with them and just get another 9515. I'm goanna try and find a box that will work well with them. I could also invert them. So I am probably going to sick with DD
-
6K....no electrical.....quarter ohm......should be fun lol.

I have seen it on these amps before but only on a burp. if I find where my rise is highest and only burp those frequencies I should be fine. I'll probably try music but only when I up electrical.
-
if something blows up, then oh well. last week i saw an audiopipe ran at .25 on music dropping to 11 volts. ran no problem lol.
-
Hehehe i know that guy (usually helps to start the truck too lol) ^^^^ the audiopoops still trucking. You gonna come by Friday to help install the new amp Nate?
-
out of curiosity, could you put a system in something like a volt or tesla and if so how well would it work?
- Show previous comments 8 more
-
Nathan of SONIC ELECTRONIX has a lil something in his TESLA.!!!
check em out !!!!!
-
I'm guesing it's similar to a prius, where there's a separate 12v auxiliary battery which is charged by leeching off of the main HV battery.
-
What if you were to use those uber high voltage stetsom amps? 340v input or something like that. Pretty crazy
-
can'tell if one of my subs is moving more than the other. on some songs they look in sync, some one looks like its moving more, on some the other looks like its moving more. think i'm seeing things.
- Show previous comments 8 more
-
Unhook one.. go.. unhook hook the other up
-
I checked all of these things. impedance is correct, not out of phase, the fact sometimes they are in sync and sometimes the left moves more and sometimes the right moves more I think its an illusion. but idk I believe the soft parts are the same. I built them along with bump4life and the are identical. my electrical is supper weak now so that may contribute to it. I may try a pop test just to see.
-
Curious if you come up with anything
-
The new TA1.3000D is a beast!
- Show previous comments 6 more
-
I mean its still a good deal if it does 2500 IMO lol... Ive actually done some more board comparisons on it and i notice that the layout is really similar to the American Bass 200.1 which is rated 3800rms but the AB has a few more components to it. The Ab has 2 more Mosfets & 2 more small caps then the SS Ta1.3000d, but pretty much everything is in the same place other then those 2 differences. Im really leaning toward getting one. They look really nice and are warrantied for .5ohms.
-
I would go for it. Not many amps are rated that low. The board layout is also similar to the aq.2200 but the SS has a few more components. And the 2200 does at least 2500 so I really believe it does rated. And its efficient. I have a XXX-4000D and its beefier than that. I would go for it. If you ever need any help with soundstream stuff pm me. I know a lot about ss
-
Kew, i torn between this and the SS Rubicon 2500. Either way id be running either amp at .5ohm. I know the Ruby's can take it as well with good electrical and mine pretty upgraded(220a dc alt, 2 agms in back & 4 runs of 0g front to back batteries, and like 6 different grounds lol) so i should be able to run either at .5 without issue. But how does it feel quality and weight wise?
-
subs are blown. only lasted one week
- Show previous comments 6 more
-
Oh yeah it was definitely my fault. It help when both coils of the sub is hooked up lol. That's why I think once I recone they will last for a bit. Just need to last until like November when I rebuild
-
The other sub I perfectly fine. Except there are slight signs of the surround starting to tear. These were pre owned before me so who knows what the old owner did to them
-
i smell a rebuild in the future....

If u did upgrade to the TA3k you would be way more efficient at .5
-
True. No money atm and i got alot going on but i will upgrade when i can. Just hope i can still get my hands on a new one.

Running the new Soundstream amps at .5 strapped, so .25 a piece, with no problems so far. we shall see.

Still won't make rated
-
I got new amps but haven't updated the log yet. Will do soon. And ya I'm not getting rated now because my electrical isn't what it should be but when I get it stronger I will see rated. And the amps handle it well. If they blow then oh well. But I don't think they will
-
that rise then lol
-
Leaving for Slam at 3 AM in the morning lol. See ya there.

Damn system keeps getting quieter and quieter. Somethings wrong...

^what he said lol
-
Lol not exactly. This is the first time I looked thought it might be an issue. I have been replacing things and adding runs to see if that was the problem and the last thing that's the same is the ground so it must be that. I initially thought it was a good connection but that was 2 years ago so who knows. But I'm goanna replace it with a fresh soldered piece of ofc and see how it goes.
-
the 15k is being sent out to repair tomorrow. going to get it done right this time.

I was just curious because the first 55+ vehicle I heard was a local guy with a xxx15k on two soundstream xxx 18's
-
Yeah I know that guy. He is/was on team Soundstream. I almost bought his from him
-
so fuckin pissed. so i got my new amp yesterday and wired it up today. had a bit of trouble but quickly resolved the problem. i start setting my gain set my ipod on top of the amp then, everything shuts off smell smoke , wee my dash smoking, pull the HU which at this point was on fire. apparently the amp grounded the aux port out. so yet another setback

Ya. I'm planning on that. Got a replacement on the way thanks to a great basshead I met.
-
sounds like some final destination type of shit Lol
-
Got new amps for mids and highs, more wire, all new brakes, and even more decals. I think i'm ready for Slam

^lol for sure. it also increases horsepower by 12.456%
-
Its gotta look loud to be loud

Lol. My car isn't exactly the best looking car to begin with but the decals make it look a lot better imo

Sooo are there seriously no shows in michigan this year. what the hell

Same thing here is South California. North California has a couple each month though. And yes, I feel its two separate states.
-
i'll probably be coming down to ohio for a couple this year. but yeah I think we should have some huge show. that would be pretty cool.
-
ever have some days where your system seems louder than others?
- Show previous comments 3 more
-
yes. Keep in mind different songs have different frequencies or are recording in different qualities. BUT yes, I do know what you are saying and 100% agree. It's weird.....
-
However, when I just wake up in the morning, everything is loud, when I get off work...everything is quiet, lol
-
lol true. I mean even with the same songs it happens.
-
DC XL 15 lasted 5 mins on the wall socket. not bad lol
