  1. Battery selection 98 dodge ram

    in XS Power Batteries / Chargers! (and other stuff too)

    Posted

    I need to get a new battery very soon and, I need some help making a decision on which I should get.

    I have a 98 dodge 1500 ext cab, it's a 5.2 motor and recently the alternator went. At autozone I found it had 95A alternator. The 5.9 motor had a 135A alternator and same mounts so that is what is in there now. I did big 3 in 4 gauge rf wire added a frame, engine, and body ground.

    I have a rockford T500-1bdcp 800wrms @ 1 ohm

    2 sundown E12 4cf net box 35hz.

    This truck is my daily driver, 15 minute to work so it may not charge a lot

    I want to add a T400-4 next so, with this equipment what model is sufficient?

  2. SD E 12 reconed to SA12 can it work

    Man I just got my box built over the weekend!

    I bought the two E12's d4 @ one ohm on rfT500bdcp its about 750wrms.

    These things pound for hours man I haven't stopped listening except to work haha.

    They want more power for sure probably t1000 power.

    The box is 4cf 35hz, big thanks to joeX.. they fucking slammm for 110$ a piece nothing new was better.

    SA is probably better can handle more get a bit louder I'm sure but they need more and r more $ so hey its up to you. I can't vouch for reliability yet but I will say I have NO doubts..

    Pm 412 cvx he designed me a sixth order and it was sweet man. I'm just afraid to try it and b a waste of wood because I haven't built but one box so experience plays a big role.

    Another thing I learned is that its easier to blow your speaker because its enclosed and from what I've been told its harder to hear distortion or bottoming.

    I'm going to build a simple slot port, thanks to mr. joex!!

  6. Best sub and port position???

    I have to say that I can't hear a big difference between subs up port up and subs up port to the side, but the biggest difference for me is with port up you can go all the way wide and not worry about blocking the port.

    Thinking about it now, I feel like subs up port up being right behind my ear made it a little muddy or loose sounding on faster beats...maybe just my crap enclosure though.

    I went to audio werks formerly audio advantage in cincinnati oh to get my gain set and they didn't know about the dd 1 and I tried to explain it a little and they practically laughed me out of the store lol the owner said steve wouldn't use it in his own shit upon other crap..i just felt like alright man think whatever.

    I left without them setting my shit too so :/

    Found a 50hz track on decaf

    Flat eq flat peq volume 40/50

    28vac T500-1 @ 1 ohm

    Anyone close with a dd1 ?

  10. What is my box tuned too?!?!?!

    I tried to invert them but it was a failed attempt because without some kind of adapter ring I was worried about the surround brushing the edge of the cut out. Another thing is the mounting flange on the woofer isn't symmetrical so it favors being mounted traditionally unless I make that adapter price I thought up...regardless this box has gtg anyway so idgaf lol

    Thanks all!

    Im going to take it easy on them hopefully two weeks I can build that side firing ported box that joex suggested 4 me!!! I was thinking crazy T lines....6th order. Probably way out of my skills lol.

    Want to upload pics..embarrassed of that crappy carpeted box tho :/

    Couldn't get help at the local shop setting gain so i found a 40hz -6db track and set voltage to about 28vac flat eq no peq my voltage dropped to 12.8 :/ don't think I'm getting 800 "birthed" watts but thats ok the new box will probably make a difference.
