TonyD'Amore Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 Sorry about the poor video quality, we just obtained a new camera and didn't have it on the correct setting for HD. Enjoy. We used all car audio components in the making of a Rube-Goldberg machine with an electrical engineering and car audio twist. List of materials used in sequence below with event sequence. 1. Rockford Fosgate 100 Farad capacitor connects to Rockford Fosgate fused distribution block. 2. Electrical current flows through fused distribution block to 1 strand of copper wire wrapped around string hanging from ceiling. 3. Copper wire gets hot, melting hanging string that suspends 1 Farad Rockford Fosgate Capacitor. 4. 1 Farad Capacitor falls onto wood lever, lever hits a curved opened end wrench converting vertical motion into horizontal motion. 5. Horizontal motion of wrench hits D'Amore Engineering CC-1 case, which causes a domino falling effect of 5 SMD / D'Amore Engineering Crossover Calibrators (CC-1), 9 SMD / D'Amore Engineering Distortion Detectors (DD-1), 9 SMD / D'Amore Engineering High Voltage Distortion Detectors (DD-1HV), and 5 SMD / D'Amore Engineering Impedance Meter - Crossover Calibrators (IM-SG). 6. Last DD-1HV hits toggle switch which applies DC current to D'Amore Engineering AF-8 Subwoofer prototype 7. AF-8 subwoofer cone moves outward hitting tube of IM-SG microprocessor ICs 8. Tube of microprocessor ICs hits roll of solder 9. Roll of solder falls onto IM-SG case which presses power switch of power supply underneath it. 10. Power supply turns on specially modified IM-SG with New Years 2013 bomb code 11. IM-SG activates ignition of dual C6-3 rocket engines in an attempt to blast Santa and his bottle of Jim Beam into the block wall on the other side of the shop. Due to safety concerns we limited the movement of the sleigh with sled chocks and a guide string. Happy 2013 from your friends at D'Amore Engineering!!!
