  1. I had the same issue of it just saving as a "file" with no extension at the end, If he does not add the extension at the end, it will not open up or be recognized as an MP3. I just exported without the file extension and this is what you are left with, . do you have the lame mp3 encoder library? I DO NOT have to add mp3 to get them to save correctly Honestly, Do not recall. Probably, probably not.
  2. You typically fill the box with 1 lb per cubic foot of internal air, so if you have a 2 cube box you would fill it up with 2 lbs of polyfill. I don't recall how much till it reaches the point of diminishing returns, but you get the general idea.

  4. if you do not add the .mp3 at the end it will just save as a file so you must ensure it always says .mp3
  5. Upon futher research I stumbed upon the Audio Engineer's Reference book,
  6. db-r does some great repairs, if not just send it back to AQ...
  7. Not to call you out, but to get standing waves especially at such low frequencies wouldn't the volume of the car have to be huge? You really don't see standing waves in a car... more in home audio.. From what I've read stuffing is based soley on the principle of accoustical energy being turned into thermal energy, albeit very small change.
  8. I don't know about 40% but pillow stuffing or known more specifically as PolyFill can be purchased from walmart/craft stores for cheap. Yes the subwoofer is safe I wouldn't worry about anything burning up. I don't recall where it starts hitting diminishing returns.. I would start off at 1 lb/ft^3.. Someome could chime in probably. It will not increase the volume a whole lot but in some cases it can really help with the low end.. I would tell you to not get you hopes up too high as the change in sound may be minimal.
  9. its maybe the easiest way to "increase" the volume. it actually alters the rate that the air inside the box changes temperature. lets use a sealed box as an example- when your cone is at rest, the pressure inside the box is considered ambient. when the cone goes in, the pressure inside the box goes up. when you pressurize air, the temperature goes up. when the cone goes out, the pressure inside goes down, and temperature goes down. we're not talking about a couple of degrees, its generally a very small temperature change. but once you add polyfill or fiberglass insulation, or something of that sort, it absorbs and radiates the heat at a different rate than just air. its a slower rate very similar to having more air, just like having a bigger box. it only works because there is so much surface area in proportion to mass, and finer materials tend to work better. But the problem is it reaches diminishing returns quickly and will only work up to a certain point. Last time I looked into stuffing it was about 1 lb/ft^3
  10. What a lot of people are failing to see is you don't have to give the sub "full power" for it to shine, the BTL is brutally loud even on low power.. Its an efficient woofer in terms of being able to get loud. My buddy Bo Carriaga at one time ran a whole bunch of the BAMF series, he was making almost 2k with them... and for the price that's not terrible. I too would look at some used amps or hifonics or AP or whatever. It really isn't going to matter unless your competing you will not hear a consistent audible difference between 1500w and 2000w. Because as some/most of you know that on paper you must double your power to gain 3 dB, which is the threshold of human hearing for an audible change.
  11. Wel... It's my video... I don't care about forum politics honestly. Just postin' it up.
  12. Now that's an insult to rocks... Kidding.. Tyler is cool. If everything goes as we plan we're planning two DP 18's on a PowerBass 5k in a wall.
  13. It just stopped working yesterday... literally just stopped. Didn't blow.. it was very odd. We are going back to an 18 with stock parts.
  14. Subs forward port back does wonders in some hatch backs for SPL purposes but sounds like shit for daily.
  15. Full wall coming early next month My buddy Bo Carriaga is going to be doing/helping.. If you don't know who he is.. Youtube him It was fairly low.. I think 1-3dbs lower like a 147 or so. and not to mention the numbers were BEFORE I got the Powerbass 5k.. the numbers were off Saz-3500 at 1 ohm.. so numbers are probably higher.
  16. +1 for a cute girl that's legal! lol WOOOOSH! Current setup: Powerbass 5k Sundown Audio 125.2 Welding Cable Pioneer Bravox/Crescendo Oficcial numbers: On Bass Ballin' at 34hz she did a 149.89 on the dash door open and a 150 in the kick door open
