    mick is a badass.

    however idk if those crossfires will outdo the solo-xs... we will see though.

    Yea I think he should leave it how it sits.

    Lmao ever since Kicker cut off team pricing he covered up the logos on the woofers so they just look blank.....what a huge kick in the nuts for kicker.

    not tryin to hate, but wouldnt he have to beat tommy to be ranked #1 in the world???

    One bassrace round has nothing to do with the fact that his build is stronger (more efficient to be specific)

    8 18s = less cone area then 24 12s

    the astro peaks on a lower note (it takes more power to generate a score on a lower frequency)

    the astro has less power (has not even seen 16V yet?!?!)

    No disrespect to Tommy here he is a great guy and competitor.....just stating the facts.

    What does he do max? I only ask because I remember The A Team doing 162.5(ish) at 36hz in their bass racer

    -Drew

    Impressive. 36hz is damn low!

    Thats practically where I set up most daily boxes to peak at (for the true bassheads)

    The max bassrace score has been around a 161 I believe. Based on some information I found out recently there a ton of gain left in the vehicle (far beyond a 162.5 with power and some recent changes)

    8 solo X 18s in a 4th order

    around a 2.5/1 ratio with the ported side

    amps are the soundstream picasso line.

    This has to be the loudest vehicle in the world at 40hz....if not I have yet to see one that is louder on such a low frequency.

    One of his earlier designs damn near broke a 160 @ 25hz....insanity.

    I gotta hand it to soundstream though here. I never was a big fan of their amps but after seeing what Steve and Bob Perillo have put them through I must say I am pretty impressed with the overall durability of the XXX line (mainly the 6500 and the 10K)

    The new 15K is a HOGGGGGGG

  10. 150s @ 30hz In Eds Truck

    I was about say that it didn't look like the btl's in the wall, but you already answered what I was going to ask. You should put your subs for your Eclipse in there for a minute and see what it's capable of on a direct swap. It would be a good comparrison to do.

    I have been thinking of trying that because the comparison would be good. My new 5200 drivers have a larger motor so they will have a higher reactive load but they are also dual 1 ohm coils so each amp will be a .5 instead of .7 like it is with the BTLs. Sens. on both drivers is pretty much the same.

    As you guys can see in the vid one of my tc5200s is in the wall for now. I was rolling home one night after I sealed the truck off and one of the motors split clean in half while the sub was playing and the cone locked up. I paused it in time to save both coils. When the motor cracked it shifted. My guess is the crack was already started from shipping damage when they were ordered and it spread from the pressure inside the wall. I am trying to reach scott at FI car audio. If anyone can pm me with his info it was be greatly appreciated. If not....well this is the first time I have seen a wall crack a motor.......def. not likely though

  16. Ed "the Technician" Gardner Memorial Show And Bass Race Build Thread

    Mike, good luck with the build. Ed will be missed and as you know was a friend of mine too. I can't wait to see and hear this truck at some point this year. Hopefully I'll be able to make it to the show that you guys are having in his memory. I'm going to do my best to come out and attend.

    thanks man

    look forward to it. Probst is coming out tonight and we are going to pull the woofers and make this thing stronger and seal it off to the vehicle.

    As all of you are aware the bass race community has lost a valuable member and close friend known as Ed Gardner. Myself as well as some other members of the db drag and bass race community have taken on the task of finishing the build for Ed being that it was so close to completion. The build consists of 4 Fi BTL 18's, 4 Crunch GP3000D's, and 3 Kinetik 2400's. We will be showcasing the vehicle at Eds memorial bassrace/db drag show on Saturday June 27th at HD Audio in Kent Ohio (evening show). Here is a link to a test video of the strongest score I could get the vehicle to do from just Eds work alone. Impressive work Ed...you will be missed!

  24. World Finals

    in Competitors Corner

    Posted · Edited by s-saudio

    I like the idea of one location

    The whole purpose of finals to me was to compete against people I don't go against every month in my own region.

    Its easy to tell everything revolves around Waynes pockets though...
