Forevrbumpn Posted June 7, 2007 Report Posted June 7, 2007 Only 40,000 watts, but its a semi truck, and 32 12" or 15"s in a Horn loaded enclosure http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mimPyISG0A 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.
Chris Posted June 7, 2007 Report Posted June 7, 2007 Well the title of this thread is "I thought this was interesting," so since I thought this was also interesting, I didn't want to make a whole new thread about it. Sorry for the hijack Forevrbumpn, but you're also THE MAN when it come to boxes. Who can tell me I'm NOT seeing this: 12 5 gallon bucket boxes?!!!!!!!!! WTF?!!!!

BigOso Posted June 7, 2007 Report Posted June 7, 2007 There not buckets they are actual enclosures made out of schedule 40 pvc and are becoming very common in db drag. He just went about it in a very wrong way. He could have gotten more spl if he would have just used 4 of them in a diffrent tube type enclosure.

LSN2meBoom916 Posted June 7, 2007 Report Posted June 7, 2007 (edited) That semi...WOW...however...BIGTIME LETDOWN AT THE END...here's why: That's "DOPE" that they did it, and that it would be that loud from that far away, but I knew I'd be disappointed when I saw them wheelin the container out and it was sealed at both ends, and not channeled into the truck cab. They never made it a "cut through" style setup which would be SIIICK. WHY IS THAT SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND! We've seen a couple semi builds and no one has had the balls (after all that time/effort/$$$$/labor etc) to funnel it into the cab. I realize it'd be a whole different engineering task to make the "turning" function of the semi work but (DAMNIT) come on, if you're gonna go thru the trouble, go all the way. 2nd: They guy standing in the "tunnel-O-Death" ..or DEAF...wow, nice EVERYTHING flex/trick! and invest in hearing loss insurance. That can't be good for you. If it's 105DB @ 250Meters (what mic I'm sure we're all wondering) I'm curious to know what it is in the mouth of the beast. 3rd: Who here was NOT thinkin it looks like an exhagerated version of ASSMANs truck? With the exception of the "Groundpounder style" metal beam reinforcements, It very much looks like the truck w/ the 20-15's to me. The 5gallon drum setup: HAHAHAHA. Maybe it was the camera mic but it sounded dirty as hell. Maybe he forgot to reinforce the buckets? Sounded pretty nasty but again maybe just the camera mic. I recall a thread a while back bout someone betting a friend of theirs they could make a better 5 gallon drum box but I never saw the out come...did anybody catch the ending to that one? EDIT-just saw^^^ about the pvc pipe, serves me right for writin a novel. tubes are gettin quite popular but I think the only GOOD use of them I've seen is in Steel City's truck, the pioneer premier setup I think, and technically KingSUV's 16-12 setup.

Forevrbumpn Posted June 7, 2007 Author Report Posted June 7, 2007 sure looks like it- un badged MTXs Iam sure this was built by a actual company, not some guys with free time. I know this was not intended for street use, or to be loaded thru a cut thru in a semi truck, but more of an experiemnt/fun project. I know, me , personally I want to build somethin like that, just to demo low frequencies to people, extremely low freqs at very high volumns Quote I have a ritual called "terminator".
