OrionStang Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Wondering if increasing power changes the peak of the build. Im going to meter my car next weekend with the 5k. Then swap it out for the 7.5k. Should I expect my loudest freq to stay the same? Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FroznBeavrBALLs Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 i would think that your car's "peak" wouldnt change no matter how much power your running. but idk... someone smarter than me should help you. i'll be lookin out for this thread cuz that is an interesting question.

memphisBred Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 I went from two AQ 2200's to two AQ 3500.1's and my peak stayed at 42 hz. Quote SMD Super Seller/Buyer Audison----Hertz----Rainbow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrionStang Posted October 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 I know the box and its placement can change it. Curious on the power thing, though. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OBI Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 I've seen when an increase in power lead to an increased the peak freq. There's a guy in my state who that happen to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fecupe2001 Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Every application is different for sure, yes, as my boy bassjunkie said, i´ve lowered the peak frequency of the build by adding more power in the past, this has happened to me only a couple of times , i can give you this statement, adding more power lowers your peak frequency IF THERE´S A CHANGE, once again, this isn´t a constant, sometimes peak doesn´t move at all, i´ve never seen someone that has raised the peak because of adding more power, but you never know!! If you are gonna meter the car, i would burp the same peak frequency you had before adding more power, and then, i would burp 2 frequencies below that, if score drops then you know the peak frequency it´s the old one or maybe only 1 hz below that, i wouldn´t waste my time burping above the usual peak Quote I´m the SPL Gains topic creator!! wanna get louder?? check this: SPL Gains.
