  9. $220 Budget for second battery

    in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring

    Posted · Edited by purplesyrup

    I've alway ran these, Northstar Batteries, its a cell phone tower battery, 6000 amps, 12V,

    Its sopposed to be equal to running 6-7 batteries, i cant remember what i did with it.

    Back in the day when a good friends mom worked there, I could get a scuffed blem for $20, no joke,

    Now the only other person I know to get them from wants $150, but still a great freakin deal. I ran one of these for 3 or 4 years never had any sort of light dimming, or electrical issues. ive got another one in the garage but its the 5,300 amp

  12. Ported Box questions

    in Subwoofers / Enclosures

    Posted · Edited by purplesyrup

    Sweet! thanks man. Now, how would this design look if I wanted it sealed? From what I've been reading, a sealed box is more my tastes because there's less of a delay in quick drum beats as opposed to a ported box. Is this true?

    you asked this question at the caraudio.com forum didn't you?

    lol

    i said that because there was a time on there years ago that no one on the forum was accepted by others unless you ran a sealed box. If you had a ported your system was shit and everyone hated on you until you just quite visiting.

    I 1000000000000000000000000000000% agree with what sprkn ranger said,

    A sealed box usually ends with disopointment.

    you have 4 10s because you want it to slam, please do not restrict the capabilities of what you have by putting them in a sealed box.

    when i did that about a month ago i bought a new amp.... :( had a 1501d thunder mtx.................... my baby

    i was hooking up an amp today, while tightening the terminals on the amp, my allen wrenched touched the + and ground on the amp for a second making a huge spark (car was off). No fuses blew, amp still turns on just fine, no subs are hooked, is there any chance i still could have damaged anything? subs wont go in for a while so hope i wont see the problem once the subs are hooked up and the amp has a load on it (amp is a sundown 4.5k).

    Not trying to scare you,

    I did this with a 1000w MTX class d back in the day, it never worked again.

    Now that being said, these sundown, dc, dd, crescendo, aq amps all seem to be at an entire different level of quality than amps from 10 years ago, and still many other amps on the current market, thats by a visual observation of the guts compared to others. So I wouldn't be too worried, as long as its not in protect, its probably fine

    LOL, well we have established that MTX amps die immediately if you do this, LOL

    Do you not have anything at all you could plug into it to see if it moves?
