  1. Interesting results. And surprising to say the least. Can I get a link to this "supercap" that was used? I find it very hard to believe that 1F outperformed 100F in a burst situation. That's extremely counterintuitive, all things being equal. I can tell you with utmost certainty that *my* supercaps absolutely pwn batteries on burps. It's not even close. And from my testing/experience, they work awesome in daily situations too. They're not cheap, but then again... neither are batteries. I guess I'll go troll CL for some car audio caps and do some of my own testing.
  2. Most people do. But what happens is... the solder works it's way in between everything, because that's what it does, and basically insulates it. It's fine for smaller connections, mind you. But I wouldn't use it on something where current transfer is paramount, It don't get no better than this, cuz...
  3. Sooo... you want your copper or aluminum shielded with... a shitty conductor? Silver solder (contrary to it's name) has 16% of the conductivity of copper. No thanks. Ill crimp. Could you give some info as to where you are coming up with these numbers? http://eddy-current.com/conductivity-of-metals-sorted-by-resistivity/

  5. Bass knobs go bad. Nature of the beast. I prefer LC-1's anyway.
  6. Lol. We're on the same page, man. I think you thought I was putting down on music builds by touting SPL numbers. Which, in fact, I was doin quite the opposite. I'm an SPL guy. But I loooove huge violent music builds and respect the crap out of them. But sometimes I wish the respect went the other way too. Lol. You guys keep rockin. Wish I could get out there and see some of your builds. Maybe at finals?
  7. How am I missing the point? My first reply was that Thor isn't a numbers guy and then tried to put someone else's lofty SPL claims in perspective. You can't compare a numbers build to an SPL build. Then a few people called BS on my claims. It did get derailed a bit. I apologize. But having been a part of the loudest trunk on the planet for the last 3-4 years... I thought I was entitled to an opinion.
  8. I'd like to see proof of this. Whenever you're ready Lol. Ask around. John Perdeye. He sandbagged a 56.9 for a 30 sec average on music at finals. (2) Tantric HDD10's. Hell... I can do 57 on (2) 10's in 0-600w.
  9. B2 M1I'm surprised by how many people are surprised by the results. Lol. i doubt you see 10K and i doubtyour voltage is always at 14.4 or higher... Actually... I was being conservative. It's more than 10k. And yes... my voltage is fine. umm...yes its rated more than 10K at 16Volts....but they take a big amount of energy for the amp alone to get it going at full power It's underrated. And I use caps. I have no amperage or voltage concerns.
  10. Curious how you think these companies that grossly over rate their amps are doing their ratings. You reckon they're just making it up? Squaring maximum voltage?

  12. Thor always builds for music though. He's not a "numbers" guy. And 58 with (2) 12's is loud, but it's not like... out of this world. My teammate can do 60 with (2) 10's
  13. i dunno bro - that is the sale price. Who know's what the MSRP on it is. My RF T2500.1bd is $1599 but i think most people can find them for about $1100 (or cheaper) online. They are all in the 3300 watt range which would put them @ .33 cents a watt or less depending where you got it. Ill take the RF, thanks. LOL I with you. It's not just about dollar per watt. I'm more interested in durability. Hmm... my amp clamps ~ 10k and costs $2k. 20 cents a watt. That's a bargain! Lol
  14. ~ 200w for $57. That's ~ $0.29/watt clean. Hmm... even though the ratings are inflated, it's still cheaper dollar per watt than a lot of amps I can think of. Just playing devil's advocate.
