stratusrt01 Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 Well, I'm gathering parts and planning for this winter's run at 150db, and wanted to see what you guys think. Right now, I'm at 146.2 with a single MTX 9512 on a Memphis MC-1500d at 44hz. The enclosure is very musical, and any enclosure that goes in there will be. There will be no one note wonders. The enclosure will most likely be another horn, since this one worked so well. I'm thinking about running a TC LMS-5400 12" as the sub, but that's not certain yet, since it's not even out yet, but it looks promising. I'm probably changing out the 1500d for the Memphis 4kd to run whatever sub I choose. The electrical system will consist of a 180 amp alternator (the largest I can get for my car), 4 batcap 800's and 4 runs of 1/0 for both power and ground. What do you guys think?

David Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 Im rooting for you, But I will warn you, you have a big hill to climb, not many people are getting a 150 musical system out of a trunker let alone 1 sub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratusrt01 Posted August 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 I know it's going to be a major challenge, but you have to aim high. I figure with over twice the power, and a lot better woofer than what I have, I should be able to come close to picking up the 4db that I need, but we'll see. I'm a realist, so I know it's going to be tough, but noone I know has even tried it musically, and at 146, I'm already the guy who everyone kind of says "WTF???" when I pop the trunk, and I like it.

Love the Memphis product....but I would run 4 of the memphis MCD1000's,not the 4kw.More power less amperage needed!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
