wow, and to think i was perfectly happy with my $800 hp until i started looking at the pc's people on here build. specially after seeing this one.

if your talking about resonant the best way i know of is a sub in a sealed box and do a tone sweep. if your talking what you currently peak at do a sweep to then let everything cool back down and the batteries charge up. then get back on the meter and play 2-5 freq from the sweep you did and quickly switch up until the score doesn't go up anymore. write down that freq let everything cool down and batteries charge then play that freq and see if you gain any more from the batteries being fully charged and everything cooled down.

I'm a French model. ??? that reminds me of a commercial. lmao, oh how some people are so ignorant.

from a friend that learned it from a friend. then he introduced me to the friend that taught him then his friend taught me more. from there i have been learning from self experience and from here. a lot more of the in depth stuff with box building and crossovers/active setups have been from here. the basic of wiring from my 2 friends, here and the 12volt source website.

maybe find people in your area with stereos ranging from 1000watts to 5k watts and then maybe a stereo with 10k,15k and 20k watts to do real world testing on. the 1k-5k testing could be done on cars with and without h/o alts to. give the guys that take time out of their day with helping with the real world testing a good deal on some batts.

would be nice to see a load test on each battery. test each batter at the recommended wattage. like for say a 1000watt system you suggest x battery, load test that battery as if it was taking a load from a system that does about 1000watts total. i know that a stereo setup wont always or might not ever fully produce that power but it would be nice to see how the battery would respond and work in that kind of situation.

yeah my summer tires are either 45 or 40 dont remember right off hand. everyone told me the ride would be horrible and i wouldnt be able to put up with it for a week. 2 summers running my 18s with the same series tires now and i enjoy every minute of it.

hows the ride with the lack of rubber on those wheels? feeling more of the bumps? gotta love some rubber band wrapped wheels on a dd. get those hids in and pics posted.

i think they said they are gonna do a high volt meter to and i would rather have a nice wide range like this. a random voltage spike or drop out of the norm wouldn't be as easily noticeable if the meter had a small range. i know my voltage sits between 13.8-14.4 but lately i have been seeing random moments when it is sitting around 13.2-13.6 or 14.8-15.1, and its a problem i have and i am fixing.

it will probably go like this 13.1, 13.4, 13.7, 14.0 that is exactly how it should be.

Sounds great for some cheap boxes lmao. I mean lets be honest you paid what? $10 for the boxes. Why ain't the sub ported by the way? Can't wait to get my punch pro 6" miss they sound great in this video

my SMD is not on 3500w. There is 2 T2500.1bd on it.....look at the diagram more like 5-6kw, maybe more depending on rise and what he is listening to.

one of these right next to the vm-1 would be great. looks like it is the same size, maybe a case to hold them both in? a package deal with the vm-1 and the wm-1? maybe more depending on what you have instore for us.

i would have listed it to where it goes head unit on top, then 3sixty, front sound stage, the rear sund stage and then the sub stage. would have been a little bit easier to see but looks good none the less. right before i saw this thread i though about doing this same thing after looking at the rockford sema show line up.

when having a high output stereo in a car everything has voltage drop. if the headunit isnt getting the power it needs i would only assume the rca voltage would drop aswell.

ive got to agree with this one. even if you have 2 have the exact same amps there could be very slight differences inside the 2 amps that will make the 2 of them react differently to the same rca input voltage and power input. Certainly between different amps, everyone has had that "golden amp" they hated to get rid of because it was just so good for it's rating. had a t300.2 the one that looks like the t2000.1 but smaller. put out almost 1000watts. then there is my 1500.1bdcp does 1950 at 1ohm according to the birthsheet. ive been lucky so far

im assuming the .5db increase came from the stronger signal bc it produced a cleaner signal and distorted later than the .35V signal which picked up some alt wine or distortion therefor the amp could be turned up more without distortion bc of the especially strong clean signal no, he is saying that the lower input voltage was .5db higher. my guess is that the amp isnt able to produce as clean of a signal with the higher voltage because the gain cant adjust for it 100% like it can for the lower voltage. the little bit of distortion from the amp gain setting not being able to adjust correctly for the higher input voltage is what is causing the spl to go down .5db from my understanding.

so as it is said a higher input voltage can create a better cleaner signal and with a cleane signal you can potentialy push the subwoofers further and harder with more power with out clipping. then if im reading this right, if the amp was able to except up to a 5 volt input with a 10 volt internal give a 50volt total when correctly set. so a 1 volt input adust right would give 50 volts like your saying and 5 volt adjusted right would still give 50 volts. then if you have a h/u that has 6volt preouts going to this amp that can only take up to a 5 volt preout from the hu without clipping you wont be able to correctly adjust the gain meaning you will clip regardless of the gain setting on the amp? so in the end if you have a cd player with a 6 volt preout and a cd player with a 4 volt pre out and the amp can be set to 50volts with out clipping and has an internal gain of 10 volts the cd player with the 4 volt pre out would be able to allow you to push you equipment to its max with out clipping while the cd player with the 6 volt preout would create more clipping and only hurt the output and sound quality of the system. and if im right distortion hurts your spl score and so with to much voltage coming in from your rca preouts then what the gain setting on the amp can adjust for you will have distortion lowering you spl?

i know how you feel, i keep putting the money aside then i say oh well, hasnt been released yet and go and spend the money lmao.

yeah, its been said that thay are gonna be about $70 even after the few changes with lighting up the numbers they are doing.

At minimum must be the port's width from the the hatch. yep, my last box had the sub and port facing the same side. had it facing the rear with only about 2" of space with the port being about 4" wide did a 144 turned the box and faced it up did a 146. audio control meter so what ever design you pick make sure you will have enough room for that port to breath and if you chose to have the port and sub on the same side have it meterd facing every possible direction.

at this amount of sub porn it should be in the 18+ section
