AA98hoe Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 Kick scores are a lot higher but I don't compete or test that way.. sealed on the dash is the most uniform imo.. not taking away from the outlaw competitors.. its just more real world to me..

CJ18 Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 My best dbdrag score is 155.18. 1 12k 6 XL 15s. We should put together a list of each style of metering for each category of amps that way it can be seen who is metering what in each one.

MarioB Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 Mario I would definitely be careful running 1 5k per XL. Even with a custom spider pack to help compensate for the extra power, once the XLs hit 3000-3500w of clamped power you are going to run out of motor and start blowing/breaking subs. I personally do not like pushing my equipment to the breaking point. Right now with the 1 12k running to 6 XL 15s with my voltage starting and not budging from 15.8 at full tilt, I am able to beat on the all day with no smelly coils or any problems whatsoever. From my recent experience while I was running my Level 3s, once I started to reach motor saturation my subs really started to heat up and get stinky even with perfectly clean power. Once the motor becomes saturated, the extra power has to go somewhere and is burnt off as heat and will start causing problems for you and burn your coils and result in multiple recones being needed. im going to have them wired at 1ohm. Its always better to have more power than not enough IMO I do not Beat on my system daily I think they will be fine but we shall find out.
