tez4life Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Looking good so far, and thats a solid box from the pic. Dont see too many prefabs with a double baffle, should be good for now. Nice to see a full size car build, I have a Crown Vic, so I know how hard it is to get these beast loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludachris5150 Posted January 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Some specs Nice to see a full size car build, I have a Crown Vic, so I know how hard it is to get these beast loud. Yea imo she could be alot louder. I think with a 2nd sub itll be right! Ill post a couple more pics after I get a chance to wash it n shit. Gotta little trunk flex to ha, Ill tryn make a vid Rebuild in progress... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludachris5150 Posted January 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 Im having problems getting my amp/headunit settings diald in. The gain on my amp is pry a little over half. Bass boost is mayb 1/4. Subsonic is like 5 below 32hz. And LPF around 60/80. The sub setting on my H/U is at 0. EQ settings are +1 I think, Mayb even 0. What should the "SLA" be set at? If I keep it at 0 and turn it up to 45/60 it doesnt slam. But when I have a couple settings at +2 or above it does. Some songs make my clipping light go off tho and I gotta turn shit down. Should I have everything on the deck set to 0 and turn up the gain/bass on the amp? Rebuild in progress... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludachris5150 Posted January 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Couple new pics, Set my amp with a DMM today. Installd the big3. Fuckn volt meter shoulda been here yesterday... Hopefully it comes soon! Rebuild in progress... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or I figure 90 would be half (20hz-200hz i think), Its a little less than half. Subsonic is around 10 below. Bass boost all the way down. Set the gain with a dmm to 34.9. Got my sub output to +5 sometimes +6. SLA's at 1. Had the loudness on low for a second n it didnt sound to bad. But idk what to set my "curve" to? Theirs a bunch of different frequencys. Like 3 or 4 different sets, 4 in each set. And each set has to be set the same. Either way their all +2N +1N -1W -2W? Any input on the "curve" settings should be set at? I havent really been getn on it yet either. My Volt meter shoulda allready been here, Waitn to install it so I can see what the voltage is doin Rebuild in progress...

My Volt meter shoulda allready been here, Waitn to install it so I can see what the voltage is doin half would be 110hz the eq wont be needed for bass, unless u have a Termlab RTA ur not gonna know what to do below 125hz the eq curve choices mean 2narrow, 1 narrow, 1 wide, 2 wide the wider the curve the more frequencies the eq affects whether u choose to + or - the narrower the curve the more accurate the eq, but the less frequencies it affects u dont need to set ur amp with a dmm at all turn ur headunit up as far as ull ever turn it normally have gain on amp at 0 and bass boost knob at 0 connect bass knob and turn bass knob up as far as u will ever turn it play a -3db or -5db test tone at anywhere between 40-60hz watch ur clip light and turn ur amp gain up til it just barely starts to blink, thats a soft clip if u were to check that gain setting with a dmm it likely would be around 35v anyways, but its more accurate than guessing the rms ur amp is going to put out what did u use to attach the bass knob to the metal above the ash tray?

Alright, Ill try setting it like that 2m. My volt meter should be here 2m also. I just used a piece of velcro that covers the entire thing. It doesnt move at all! Rebuild in progress...

Ludachris5150 Posted January 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Couple pics of the volt meter installd, Had to cover up the stinger part. I wish I woulda known the voltage I was at before the big3 tho! Oh well, Its sitn around 15 now. Not bad for a stock alternator and jus one cheesy battery up front! Rebuild in progress...
