      Walled sonic that's what I did last time checked both with dd-1 and dmm and gain matched to the lower of the two amps.  Adding a cockbox and getting rid of y spliters. going to redo amp gains at -5db instead of 0 db like last time. 

    3. Rich Schenk

      Rich Schenk

      Well all done and reset with cockbox looks better

      Kyblack76

      Ive seen the og mayhems take a ton. Here is one of 15 rigs i knew of in the day running mayhems (all the og mayhems) Tims blazer. 4 18" mayhems on 2 9k tfhes at .35 (yes, .35)  Tim played that thing all fucking weekend. Never had a issue, and these where Rays old subs he beat on for years. 

       

  11. What's is cost for someone to do a recone on a ascendant audio mayhem 12?

      Ya just waiting on that recone now then have to get that thing reconed then install it and I'll be playing again can't wait to hear these beasts. These our the biggest subs I've ever owned.

    3. ChevyBoy95

      ChevyBoy95

      It is worth it to spend the extra money on the guy who knows what he is doing. A buddy of mine does them for people around here and think he charges 50-60. 

      And I know how nerve racking it can be reconing a sub and not wanting to mess it up. My first recone was a level 5 18 I did.

    4. Rich Schenk

      Rich Schenk

      Ya just going with the more expensive guy worth my piece of mind has like 6 references so going that route. Getting my recone and basket tommrow so hopefully will be able to get it done soon and finnaly hear what these 6 mayhems 12s will do.

  12. What's the selling price on a used ab xfl 1222, and a blown one?

      HDs are supposed to bang hard.  Not sure if you would actually notice much of a diff between them and XFLs.  VFLs tho...  but yeah HDs are very nice.  what size are you looking for?  per sub budget?

    3. Rich Schenk

      Rich Schenk

      Have 8 xfl 1222s 5 good 3 bad coil thinking bout trading them out for something better that will take the power without stinking

    4. bmwking

      bmwking

      HDs would be the next logical step for sure

      I have a Sierra 1500 and run mud tires. I off-road a little bit. I run 10 ply tires just for their strength. Takes away from the ride but they can handle more abuse. If you are ballooning then probably yes you could use some load E tires.

    3. Rich Schenk

      Rich Schenk

      Thanks guys for the info now to find some good deals on tires
