Great work Thanks for all the kind words guys! Its been a long road to get to this point and there is still a lot left to do but its starting to pay off. Afrakes, send me a pm and lets set something up. I'm living in Tukwila right now but I make my way up towards Bellevue pretty often.

mrd6 Posted October 30, 2014 Author Report Posted October 30, 2014 ^You know it! Didn't drop below 13.5v today while testing. So after I finished pulling numbers from the truck with these ports I am pretty pleased, but also have some new problems to deal with. Started at 35hz and then moved up by 5hz increments just to get a general idea of the response curve. I do this every time I test a new port. Again, always sealed on the dash. I would test opened up if I could....I'll be fixing that soon though. Anyways, SCORES! Continuing where I left off yesterday... It drops back down to a 153.5 @ 60hz...for whatever reason I forgot to take a picture of that one. I wish I had recorded my wipers for the 55hz burp tho....there was carnage lol The windshield was flexing like crazy and I guess the wipers were bouncing off of it so hard that the casing, the part that connects the wiper blade to the rod, broke in half, sending the wiper flying though the air.... I'm hoping once I get a pole in the car this will be less of a problem. Or else I may have to start carrying spare blades with me to shows lol. Oh also, I think I found my peak as it sits now, back up to 33hz. Unfortunately, my doors didn't like all the testing, I heard the "pop" when I was testing 29hz for shits and giggles.

mrd6 Posted October 30, 2014 Author Report Posted October 30, 2014 So if you were paying attention to the scores, you noticed I peak at ~30hz and ~55hz and there is a 3 db drop at 45hz. With this being a 6th, I have an upper and lower peak. The drop in the middle is just the gap in response between the tunings....I need to either move the tunings closer together or adjust the ports/chambers to flatten out the response....easier said than done. Trying a new rear port. Thinking this will result in a flatter overall response but probably a loss in the lowest frequencies...we shall see.

SnowDrifter Posted October 30, 2014 Report Posted October 30, 2014 I spy with my little eye a crimper I thought your rear port was one of the adjustable psycho-acoustics ones? ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444
