06_sierra Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 So yesterday I finally entered into a meca competition. I'm running 2 addictive audio 12's on a Audioque 2200 in a blowthrough enclosure. I have a 300 amp alternator from dc power and a xs power d925 for my electrical. Got a 144.3 on the termlab with a 34 hz tone. I really liked the experience and hope to enter into some more comps and hopefully get a little louder. Does anyone have some tips that i can use? any input would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

06_sierra Posted July 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Since i had a 150 amp fuse they put me in Modified 3. One of the judges told me that if i can get a 60 amp fuse that would lower me to modified 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon15zzz Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Word of advice push every rule to the limit. Also if you ask a question on email save it. I had some trouble with rules for my class last year. They told me I couldn't run something then I got to finals and they allowed others to use/do it.

06_sierra Posted July 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 What's the lowest size fuse you think I can get away with? Will a smaller fuse result in me getting a lower score? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will a smaller fuse result in me getting a lower score? not really its just hard not to blow it start testing with a 60a fuse see how much you can turn up the volume before it blows... slowly turn it up..slowly!!!!

06_sierra Posted July 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 Cool man I already ordered some 60 amp fuses so i can play around with them. Now I tune with a dd-1 and today I notice the higher I put the sla the lower my max volume is? Do you use the sla? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
