elcamino74ss Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 Ok so I know my set up right now is rather low budget and needs work but I went to a local USACI event at a nearby Car Toys yesterday. I went just to hang out and check out the scene and ended up throwing my Taurus on the termlab in the stock 0-600W class. I only pulled a 136.5db @ 67 hz which proved that prefab polk box is tuned rather high. I plan on putting in the "new" Pioneer 980BT head unit this weekend and now have been bit by the bug hard. It was fun at my age to try something new and the kids got a kick out of dad bringing home a 2nd place trophy for the class I hope to snap some pics once the new head unit is in and my amp for the mids/highs. Then next on the list will be to either build my own box for the 2 polks 12s or just sell it off and look at other options. Just reading stuff on this forum has been informative and a great inspiration to get out there and have fun with it. 2007 Ford Taurus Pioneer P980BT Head unit Stock Electical DB Link 4ga wiring Polk DB570 front/rear Junk in the trunk: Polk db1222 box Rockford Fosgate 600.1bd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeachJoshua Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 It's probably tuned at 45 hz, but your cars resonate frequency and all that other bull shit is whats causing your peak frequency... | S-10 | 4.5^3 ft | 33Hz | SAE-1000D @ 1 Ohm | 2 SA-12s | SPL: 143.7 Sealed | 153.4 Port Wars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a rather low turnout but the event wasn't too publicized. Either way it was fun to see some real set ups. 2007 Ford Taurus Pioneer P980BT Head unit Stock Electical DB Link 4ga wiring Polk DB570 front/rear Junk in the trunk: Polk db1222 box Rockford Fosgate 600.1bd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
