  1. Nice pup! Has some nice markings on him. Love my moms aussie, they're little hellians for their first few years but overall their great dogs.
  2. You may still get to order by this weekend, there's still 4 business days and if you've already shipped you may be in luck. Good luck, I'm sure you'll love that crescendo. When you cutting that bed?
  3. Just a suggestion, but could you block anyone from registering with the location of "143040" I've noticed most of the spammers have that as their location.
  4. If its being judged by TL i'd be putting alot of tuning time into it. As stated earlier just because its a wall doesn't mean its going to be louder, look at alot of SS No Wall cars/trucks in db drag doing some pretty good numbers. I'd say you have your work cut out for you and it won't be as easy as you think to be louder on less power.
  5. I'm so buzzed my toes be buzzin

  6. Thank you, for real dude. I'm more than willing to teach you (and anyone willing) everything I know but even then that is limited by my own personal knowledge and experience. My PM box is always open if you (or anyone) has questions, hell I'll give my personal number if needed.
  7. No offense to mike singer (or you) but there were plenty of loud bandpasses before he even built his first speakerbox let alone bandpass. There was no such thing as a magic ratio. The amount of time tuning he puts into them is amazing and props to him for building awesome ass boxes. But there is SOOOO much more to bandpass enclosures than just a simple ratio, it can be a "guideline" i guess but even then that is pushing it. And of course with a bigger ported portion and a smaller sealed you're going to have more spl (not always) but with that smaller sealed section you're limiting and raising the bandwidth to a higher set of frequencies. When you play higher frequencies then yeah 9 times out of 10 you're going to be putting up higher numbers than lower frequencies but at what cost? Sure you can dump more power into these setups and MAKE them play low notes but that kind of defeats the purpose of a bandpass. As i said no offense, I really dont mean this to seem standoffish
  8. Not to thread jack... But could you explain this one to me? I think i kind of understand what he means. i guess it can be kind of explained by an analogy of sorts. if you had a regular ported box with the sub firing forward and (heaven forbid) the port directly behind it firing back, then there wouldn't be much to control excursion because the air would escape before it had a chance to bounce off the walls a couple of times (fail explanation) boxes help control excursion by maintaining pressure inside the box, without that pressure it would be like a free air environment, in which it is easier to reach the mechanical limits of the sub because there is less force pushing back up on the cone to keep it from bottoming out. so if most of the air escapes before it can pressurize, then you might as well have a free air environment...okay maybe not that dramatic, but you get the point. ^^that probably doesn't make any sense whatsoever, but i'm too tired to go back and read that shit right now lol. i could just be talking out of my ass too who knows. feel free to ask any more questions. i'm here to learn too You're pretty close with that, not a bad explanation. I've been drinking so I cant really come up with a great explanation. I'll chime in tomorrow
  9. why do you say forget about the ratios? i thought that was the key to 4ths im also trying to learn.edit: and to op from what i have learned i also agree about the loading issue others look nice Theres quite a few people out there who will say the same thing. Ratio's mean nothing, its really all based off of speaker parameters and goals of the box. Not to thread jack... But could you explain this one to me? With a bandpass you're using both the front and rear wave of the speaker. With the port directly in front of the speaker you're not fully "pressurizing" the wave in the ported side
  10. Looks pretty good but forget all about ratios imo. Also I agree the first box will have loading issues, you're firing right at a port vs loading off of something. My 2 cents, I have a 4th order wall but I'm far from a 4th order pro.
  11. Nothing like being schwasted at 3:49 in the morining I'll drink to that!
  12. I would aim for an alternator and and extra battery if it were me. Yeah you can play off of extra batteries but you're going to be playing in the 12.5v and under range unless you have a biiig battery bank.
  13. I agree with the black out... but just want to say DO NOT use wikipedia for school...idc what grade level you're at.
  14. I personally go back to front. That way you have zero chance of harming your cars electrical since its in no way connected to your front engine bay. Hook it up, test the voltage, then connect to the front bank to the rear bank.
  15. is it like a separate would stack or do you ask to have a piece cut?
  16. Did you have a remote in the amp and did it try to turn on? Could be an amp grounding itself (fried). Or the battery the amp is grounding to isnt grounded.
  17. Can't wait to get my 270xp!

  18. Thats too funny! All the images around here are old as hell too Brian. I bet cali's are updated more since its all about when the satellite passes a particular spot if theres too many clouds to actually take a photo or not. Ohio is cloudy all the damn time so our images are highly outdated, by the looks of alot of steves videos its pretty clear out in cali alot. Lucky.
