  2. in need of Second Skin guidance

    in Second Skin Sound Deadening and Automotive Insulation!

    Posted · Edited by P4killer_

    All my other cars are scrapped or sold or w.e

    Theres none in this car yet.

    Ive had peal n seal. Was ok.

    Fatmat ok I guess

    American bass stuff was actually good.

    Maybe one other idk.

    But ive looked into this for awhile ya know

    Alphadamp no website .. meh.

    The other A brand idk.. also meh

    Raamat seems jenky idk.

    I just decided like f it get the good stuff. Im hoping its like walking out into the light of salvation, that n8 is right on, second skin is the bees knees.

    But now, what second skin products do I buy? How much?? I wanna spend 2-300.

    Edit: And I just wanna know like 100% im getting good value. I value my money, and I dont really like risking it or just wasting it too much. 100 bux ok w.e

    300 bucks, I wanna know exactly what im getting and what to expect exactly what to do with it to get the best results possible for my money.

    When I build a pc, I know exactly what my game plan is and how far I will be able to overclock given the setup timings and all. Within 1 hour of boot up inshould be into fine tuning and voltage increments the nitty gritty.

    Oh lol god no. Lmao I wish. What I was saying that I cant imagine getting to a 50 with such a serious problem imo.

    But I have no idea how many sq ft is adequate. Or what the foam or sludge would do. Ive read about it.. but i dont want to put foam padding everywhere either as it would absorb some splage..

    I have a good general knowledge of deadening. Im looking for the fecoupe knowledge of deadening if that makes sense.

    Its a dumb question really, but I dont like being uncertain.

    Before I put together my install for the year, I need deadener BAD.

    The trunk sounds like a tidal wave of metal above 145db..

    Ive also noticed the door are rather thin.. you can hear the stock speakers in the rear doors loud as can be just listening to Espn or something, from well outside the car. Let alone the components up front..

    So trunk and doors. Maybe the headliner. With spl in mind mostly.

    What do I need? The foam matt stuff seems ok but wont it absorb spl? What about sludge? Of course cld, but how much??

    Everyone says you dont need 100% coverage, but everyone hassss 100% coverage.

    I deadened in my past cars with other stuff, but trunk lid area only.

    This time I wanna deaden legit style. Going with some second skin. And im assuming 80 mil or gtfo.. or is 60 mil fine?

    Above and beyond all else, I want a 150. And I believe the serious tornado of trunk carnage greatly impeads that goal. The trunk torsion bars are already snapped from spl..

    Thanks

  5. best sundown subs to play loud rather than low

    in Sundown Audio - GREAT Amps/Subs! GREAT Customer Service!

    Two sep boxes??? Is it a chambered box? If its literally two sep boxes and each like in its own lil area.. f that silliness.

    Build a 2 12 standard shares air box with like a 6 inch aero and be done with it. Sa's are honestly some well designed nasty little mofos... before they got to be $200 fing bux they were one of the best bang for buck subs out there.

    They gey plenty loud. Either you are giving em like 400w each or the design isnt ideal.

  6. sundown 3500 at 1/2 ohm?

    in Sundown Audio - GREAT Amps/Subs! GREAT Customer Service!

    Posted

    well no body knows really. thats nsv3 will likely laugh its ass off at a 3500 though. again with a bit a common sense. iirc sundown rates the nsv3 at 3500... and thier ratings are worst case scenario aka this thing will take w.e the fook you got... Not many ppl have em yet, and i know ppl waiting on parts to arrive for them to be built iirc, but there gonna put like 5k to each..

    so yea a 3500 is np

  8. sundown 3500 at 1/2 ohm?

    in Sundown Audio - GREAT Amps/Subs! GREAT Customer Service!

    Posted

    Yea just back it up with decent supply. As far as half ohm goes, sundown amps are almost bullet proof. Across a few of my own installs and many others ive been around.. they might as well just rate em at .5 lol. Now that doesnt mean they wont fail, but with a little common sense i reckon itd be pretty hard to break a sundown SAZ amp at .5

    That 3500 v2 im assuming will do a bit of power... so as all have said. just back er up

  9. scotch drinkers come inside

    Dude this is the best scotch blue label right here...

    BLUE%20TAPE2.jpg

    Always been a whiskey fan myself..at $250 I mean your likely not getting anything extraordinary. Get em one of those gift sets with the free glass inside haha.

    Try to find out his favorite and get that. Or a higher end version. If hes a aficionado, youd hate to get him something and hed be like omg this is noob scotch..

    Dig around for some insider info ask your sister or ppl that are close to him.

  13. DC Audio 3.5k Dyno Testing using Single and Dual Inputs

    in DC Sound Lab - Big Bass on ANOTHER LEVEL!

    Posted

    Well that was an informative test. For the record I never said dual inputs were crap, but always wondered about the contact area. And now we have some definitive data.. which is nice.

    Its odd that the 1 to 1 connectors are quite a bit better. Alot more than 2w difference. In fact its more power less drop all with less current draw as well which mean higher efficiency. . Which is a big deal.

    With some practice you can easilly get bare wire to look perfect, but it is annoying. For my money for looks oalone its not worth it, but for the results you recorded it absolutely is.

    Ive been on the fringe of ordering a set of these for the longest time, but didnt wanna waste my money. I saw this thread and got excited to finally know the truth..

    Thanks for the info.

  19. DC Audio 3.5k Dyno Testing using Single and Dual Inputs

    in DC Sound Lab - Big Bass on ANOTHER LEVEL!

    Imo you should have did the single run WITHOUT the block.

    Obviously double the wire isnt in question. Double the wire is obviously better. The question imo is the reduced CONTACT AREA of using the distro block.

    A single bare ended wire input into a standard amp terminal will have thousands of contact points to deliver the power.

    By using a distro you now only have 2 points of contact going into the amp. Set screw against top of the block. Block against bottom of amp input..

    So imo the test should be two fold.

    Does a single run without the block differ than a single run with the block?

    And what is the difference between normal single run and dual using the block.

    No one buys buys those blocks just to continue running one wire... so really that test was silly.

    You normally go from one single run to tm block dual runs.. which was not shown.

    Redo plz.

    Edit: grammar etc.

  20. NVX XPLD3K New 3000W RMS Monoblock Amp!

    in Sonic Electronix - Great Selection Great Prices

    Posted · Edited by Audiofanaticz

    700 is really market price. nothing special there on sale.. so when its off sale itll be 750 or 800 easy. just like everybody else...

    At finals last year 7ks could be had under a grand.. now obviously everybody isnt gonna get that price and it sure as hell wasnt me, but in knowing that, it kinda puts it into perspective... why would i pay 700 for a 3k then..

    idk. cool amp. 700 is nothing new. unfortunately.

  24. what's it worth

    in Sundown Audio - GREAT Amps/Subs! GREAT Customer Service!

    Posted · Edited by P4killer_

    These prices reflect sundowns recent yard sale so are a good indicator of what they'd cost someone to buy directly from sundown.

    Motor $65

    Recone $40

    Basket $18

    Keep in mind glue is not included in that price which cost around 20 bux.

    New ones go for 200 online.

    Id need a Recone a basket and glue. Inorder to make a new woofer.

    So thats 40+18+say15 for glue = 73 bux. Maybe a lil more.. so 75.

    So with a 65 dollar motor, thata 140 for a newish sa12. If I did the recone myself. Not terrible. Not great.

    So yea you could reasonably ask 60-80 dollars you could ask more to a noob but then theyd likely have to pay someone to do the recone for them. So even then 80 would be about the max because of that additonal cost.
