How Do You Actually Accomplish A Hair Trick..?

[Nightshade]

I burp a tad under a 150 and my car doesn't really do a hairtrick at all. It'll move some air and hair, but not like I've seen out of much quieter systems. It's the note that you tune the box to on top of the resonant frequency that the vehicles plays well. Most higher powered systems that are tuned 36hz and below can do a hairtrick at a little over 140 db's. A lower note moves more air than a higher one. In my case I'm tuned to 40hz and can play 30hz, but not at the force to achieve a good hairtrick at the window. Now on that frequency with someone with long hair sitting in my car I can bounce their hair all over the place. It's all on how the pressure transfers to the window where the hairtrick is done.

I did a shirt trick yesterday, it was the limpest one I've ever seen, BUT, it was a shirt trick. and that is on 300 watts

Here's a hair trick out of a trunk car of a fellow Team Sundown member. It can be done. It's not the strongest ever, but a bit better than mine out of a hatch.

I like fellow team sundown members' hairtrick model

hah.

But yes this can be done with proper tuning, a bit of power and some cone area. For example, I could pull mini hair/shirt tricks in my ranger using two 15" Havocs on a SAE-1000D a piece. They were in a large 4th order bandpass that filled nearly the entire extended cab. The fact that the cab was so small, and made even smaller by the large enclosure displacement helped no doubt, but it's proof it can be done with careful planning.

The new goal is to pull decent hairtricks in my much larger 4dr blazer, using 3000 watts of power or less.

exactly, my friend has a Ford Taurus w/ 2x kicker L7 15's Hifonics 2608Bxi or w/e tuned to 28hz i believe, and he could do a hair trick rather easily. subs up, flare port in the front, pointing towards the cabin. it really about cone are, good power, and tuning really low, so you can move as much air as possible.

even tho this really doesnt apply here, my other friend has 2x 18" Bl's in his Cheeroke on an AQ2200D, and that shit moves mad air too, hair trick all day ez... i brought him up, b/c he actually has some vid's up on youtube.

here's one:

the jeep is tuned from at like 29.8hz... call it 30hz
