Fast Company Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Here is a quick description with install and a rundown of parts for the liquid cooling subs. (for those that are curious) Here is the pump, 2 pass through fittings for the box, 2 sub plugs, 2 tube stiffeners, and 4 amp plugs. The radiator. Shot of the magnet pre-plug installation. I used some CPU heat transfer silicone on the threads of the plug to fill in any gaps between the magnet and plug. Plug installed back view. Plug installed side view. Tubes installed. You can see the tube stiffener. Water leak test. I'll tell you it's a pain trying to get a closed system air free. They really should have included a reservoir. But, no leaks and that's all that matters. Pass through fittings in the box. Just test fitting everything. I used some dynamat under the pump to make it a bit quieter seeing as I mounted it to the box. Radiator mounted to the box. Here are some videos.

MrBigs63' Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Cool idea. Not so sure of the practicality (not sure how long it would hold up, or if it would really be worth it to set all this up for the amount of extra cooling). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fast Company Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Quite the gimmick. Yes I'm sure it was. They didn't sell "many" units. I'm sure most audio guys figured this out right quick. But it is unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so sure of the practicality (not sure how long it would hold up, or if it would really be worth it to set all this up for the amount of extra cooling). Cool idea? Pun intended? LOL It is claimed that the RMS can be increased 75% with the water cooling. The system is on a switch so I only run it when I turn it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Cool!!!! I don't care how effective or ineffective it is.

Fast Company Posted January 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Well once I got the one I started doing research but couldn't find much. Kinda got me worried but it sounds pretty good. Found another on Kijiji by chance and two is definitely better than one. I'd like to find a third one and increase the power to about 600rms. If I wired three of them together and they are 4 ohms each what would that get me? 1.5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alextwfsk8er Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 so is the pump ran off of just a constant 12volt flow? does it have a remote start or something along the lines of that? And at maximum pumping what is the current usage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
