Sent ya a e-mail Steve! Thanks!
-
Steve, I purchased the DD-1 (unfortunately before you started signing them and sending the window decals) but was interested in the CC-1 and IM-SG, what kind of price could you do for those?

I know the post is a little old now but I went through a breakup with the g/f of over 2 years and was takin it kinda rough so I wasn't really on here. I have 5 sanctioned 300's but no 800's yet. I was throwing 15# but just recently switched to 14#. I am a fan of storm and roto grip and am currently liking the crossroads a lot!
Thats me throwing a couple shots with a track 508a

I know this isnt related to well... anything on the forum but just seeing whats up and if anyone bowls. What kind of equipment you use, average, tournaments, sponsorship, honor scores

Any other help for sealed box's?
-
I was considering making another one tuned a little lower also. I am currently around 35 hz, which doesn't sound bad. I just re tuned with the DD-1 and it was sounding real good! But I either wanna go sealed or aero ported on my next box. Just not familiar with either
-
i had a L port box @ 3.92CuFt after displacement, and it sounded absolutely fantastic.
so i mean i know it doesn't totally pertain to having it in a sealed enclosure, but take it for what its worth.
if i remember correctly, isn't there a formula or spread sheet for recommendations to convert from ported to sealed internal volumes?
What did you have it tuned to? And im not sure about there being a chart for converting but RE has specs for both sealed and ported im just wondering when a sealed box becomes too big and when it can damage a sub.
-
I know most of you probably think a sealed box for this sub is stupid but I wanna try it and see what result I get for a SQ setup. Just trying to figure out what I should do as far as internal volume. RE recommends 2.1 cu ft but someone the other day suggested 3 cu ft. At what point will a sealed box be too big where I could risk damaging the sub? Also when tuning an amp for a sealed box where do you set LPF and subsonic?
-
Okay thanks for the input. I am tryin to get the sundown from him lol
-
Anybody?
-
Talking to a guy locally who says he has a sundown 3500, and a American bass vfl 150.1. I have a sundown 2500 and love it, he is telling that this vfl is better than the 3500. I don't know much about American bass and don't know what they do as far as how much over rated power @ 1 ohm. Reason I'm asking is because I may look into upgrading depending on his prices

I know I don't have a paper with a date or name or forum on it but was in a hurry to make this post and didn't really have time, lock if needed.

im not in the market. an if i was i would most likely go DD seems i am a dealer. but if you don't mind me ask what does a XXX retail for?
NEUMAN
Cheapest I could find the 15" was $579 +shipping
-
Well... ill be completely honest.
I was being straight retarded...
The negative output from my capacitor to amp fell out,
So I plugged it back in, and turned the sub on. Ugh....
30 seconds later; smoke.
Also, I don't have an inline fuse between cap and amp (obviously I should)
E/: by the way neuman, ill sell you my blown on cheap.
Recone kits are available, I think possibly into even dual 1ohm
But don't quote me on that
Damn man thats no good

54mm one way xmax! am i reading that wrong? that is over 4 inches of total throw i do not believe that.
NEUMAN
No you read that correctly.
Ive had 3 of the XXX12D2's.
They flex a MASSIVE amount.
by the way o/p, XXX woofers are SQL not SPL
Ty sir, did not know that. I feel like the sub gets loud but only on certain songs. Coulda been the way I made the box too though
it does get very loud especially for an SQL speaker
From my experience with them, the 12's like ~4^3ft before displacement, and need at least a 4" wide port to breathe properly.
My box was tuned to 32.9hz, at loved frequencies in the range of 25-40hz, but would redoing to 70hz and less.
goodluck with yours
I blew my last XXX out this afternoon, and am now woofer-less :'(
Let me know if you need any more info on the XXX series
Lol how did you manage that? These things are rated at 2000 rms!

WOW. i will have to look in to them a bit.
NEUMAN
I'll sell ya mine if you wanna drive to Michigan lol
-
Lol alright alright I get it!
-
no. they're different subs. you have 300 posts and you're asking this?
you bring on a very valid point sir
-
I just got a 15" Fi BL for $150 from a guy locally. If it's a dual 2 ohm like my RE XXX 15, could I run both subs off of my sundown SAZ-2500d? If they are the same resistance I don't see why not but just wanted to check first. I do understand they would probably have different imp rise though.

Awesome man! Lots of good info there!
-
Cool thanks man I'll def check it out when I get to a computer

Looking for two 12's or maybe a 15". Let me know what you have. Once again its the SPL series which is rated at 2500+ rms

Mosconi Aerospace DSP with Optical signal tuning help
in Head Units-Processors and Eq's
Posted
Hi all,
I hope this is is in the right category. This is my first time using a DSP or an optical signal in a car audio application. I will start with the equipment, then ask the questions. I do have an ANC bypass installed also.
Question 1: How do I check the input signal to confirm that there isn't a factory EQ set in the radio? Do I just use a flat EQ/default settings in the DSP to see what the RTA shows? Also, without using RCA's what is the best way to check H/U clipping using the DD1? I checked it with the default DSP settings through the amp.
Question 2: For anyone familiar with the Mosconi software it allows you to enter a number from 1-200 on the input side to set your input gain. I went with 100 which, if my memory serves me correctly, I believe is 0 db and 200 is +6 db. Someone mentioned to me that optical signals don't clip? Not sure how true that is but should my input gain be set higher? On the output side I couldn't get past +2.5 db before clipping on the front and rear channels where I was able to get to +6 db before clipping on the sub channel using a DD1. To me, this seems like the front/rear channels are clipping very early. Is there something I can do to fix this? With the settings the way they are, I don't feel like I get much volume-wise.
If more info is needed please let me know, I am eager to learn this side of car audio. I have tried watching the Gladen Mosconi videos that Frank Miketta has on YouTube but I have such a hard time following along while having to read captions.
