SMZ2 Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 My local shop has a termlab so I was curious what my system would hit. I have a 2002 nissan xterra with a hybrid psi/fi bl 18, crescendo bc2000 wired all to one ohm in a little more than an 8 cu ft box tuned to 30hz. Well I metered 141.8 for my peak and that was on stock electrical. I am purchasing an xs3100 soon and doing the big 3. Also I will sound deaden my roof, my trunk is already deaden but I will be deadening the trunk even more with some great stuff to make it heavy. But anyway was that a good number with all those factors in play?

TeamHT Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 I don't see electrical making a big difference in your score, not in the slightest. But that doesn't matter as obviously you're not chasing numbers. Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMZ2 Posted July 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 Well I want to compete so is that not bad for competing? I like just giving demos too though but like everybody I want to get louder. your sure electrical wouldn't help? my voltage dropped to about 11.8 maybe even a little less on stock electrical but it was only for a few seconds and the amp will push more power with steady voltage going to it most amps are rated to 14.4 volts right?

kr15 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 I was running the same amp at 1ohm on a single 12 in a trunk, and was doing 42s on music...I honestly think you should pretty easily be doing close to 145.

SMZ2 Posted July 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 john253a he is a member here. It is also tuned to 30hz though which is low my next box when I go for two 18s or a bigger 18 I will make a removable port for numbers I think the tuning is killing me... well that and the lack of deadener the guy at the shop said I could be losing an easy 3 decibels from all the rattling which could be the case when I first deaden my trunk I notice that it got louder it sounded loud that was just by ear with a 10.

memphisBred Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 Id start with the box. Quote SMD Super Seller/Buyer Audison----Hertz----Rainbow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davecubs14 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 Don't deaden yet. I lost a few tenths after deadening my hatch. My hatch like to rattle. If anyone even touches it, I lose .5. What frequency did you peak at? I personally think you would see an upgrade moving to a box that closer to 6 cu ft. tuned around 34. But still be musically. Post up some pics of your box and install so we could help better. But yes, I agree. Start with the box.
