ST33M Posted May 16, 2008 Author Report Posted May 16, 2008 Sounds very good. Even tho everyone says the 15's aren't very musical and sloppy. I can play down to 20hz at full tilt if wanted, granted the output isn't very high. Box is tuned to 41 and change. But most music I listen to doesn't dip lower then 30 mainly anyway. And the output is there at that freq. Will have scores tommorrow night. they meter at window with drivers window down if choosen. Will try a run sealed maybe, just to say what it does that way. Quote
Deafdreamz Posted May 16, 2008 Report Posted May 16, 2008 The mj-18 blew that theory right out of the water. Its one of the fastest subs ive ever heard.

ST33M Posted May 16, 2008 Author Report Posted May 16, 2008 True, but I was mainly refering to the L5, or for that matter Kicker, 15's in general. Here is a pic of one of the other boxes I built. Made to fit in the trunk of a ford contour. Quote
Shibby Posted May 17, 2008 Report Posted May 17, 2008 Do you have your remote turn on for the amps coming straight off the battery, dont the amps stay on all the time Quote
ST33M Posted May 17, 2008 Author Report Posted May 17, 2008 Remote turn on is to the radio. the red jumper is just to switch them both one off the one lead. Just can't see the other wire in the pics. Quote
ST33M Posted May 17, 2008 Author Report Posted May 17, 2008 Np. I did do a little sb,sb or extreme run the other day. 30 second run and voltage only went from 14.23 to 13.8. Not to bad. may add another run each of 1/0 to the back battery and see if that helps. Idea's ? Quote
Forevrbumpn Posted May 17, 2008 Report Posted May 17, 2008 looks good man, nice build, nice fit, looks like it sounds great Quote I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.
ST33M Posted May 17, 2008 Author Report Posted May 17, 2008 Ty. It does sound rather good. I did lose a rear speaker. User error on my part. And the only reason I have rear speakers is for the kids, otherwise i would take them out all together. Quote
ST33M Posted May 18, 2008 Author Report Posted May 18, 2008 Amps clamped imp rise to 1.9 from the strapped .5 isn't to bad. Full charge and burp off 14.1 I got over 2600 out of the strapped pair. Little more then there rated 1200 each at 1 ohm. Couldn't be happier about that. Didn't meter off the first clamp tho. Did a 135.8 with a clamped 500 watts and 143 and change with a clamped little over 2000 watts. Not sure what the prob was, beside maybe the weather. Going to redesign maybe. Wife will decide if she wants it changed or not, since it is her vehicle now. Voltage was a constant 13.8 after the first test. Could do an easy sb or br run with voltage only dipping to 13.5 the whole run. Next vehicle will be better and go all out for the higher score. Already have the car,amp and wire in the works for that build. Will post a log once it starts. Quote
