i did a sweep @ the last comp with the new WMD-SPL subs boxx was 7.7cf port freq: was 48hz but i did not notice 1 of the flared ports had falled into the boxx due to my not using the right tape and only got a 147.3db so was not conclusive... have not metered the 5.25cf boxx slot port, with the MOAB in it as i was only lisenning to music in it

i am grateful for any help. and Thank you

Cool the flares are 6" diamiter. i can add pvc to make it any length i need as for Pap they were nice and shipped me a few subs, the 1 i have in the truck is the 2006' MOAB and im running it @ 2ohm daily 3000k, it hets a lil warm but havent had a problem, does much better @ low freq than higher.. i tried it @ 45Hz but it was muddy so i extended the port to lower the freq to about 32hz ish... did the hair trick yesterday 2 guys from the mecanic shop looked in the window and there hair was waffelling... (Tego - Los Mata ) here is the T/S for the pair of Wmd-Spl subs i had them make for me Fs = 34 Hz Qms = 7.2 Vas = 3.6 cu.ft Cms = 0.00967 in/lb Mms = 13.99 oz Rms = 25.95 lb/s Xmax = 1.5 in Xmech = 1.5 in P-Dia = 15 in Sd = 176.7 sq.in P-Vd = 0.153 cu.ft Qes = 0.97 Re = 4 ohms Z = 4.8 ohms BL = 4.203 lb/A Pe = 3000 watts Qts = 0.86 no = 0.398 % 1-W SPL = 88.15 dB 2.83-V SPL = 91 dB the cone is honeycomb/poly with a cavlar coating, does not take as much power ! but i requested it that way as i was tired of dealling with generic off the shelf stuff with heavy cones & power hungry motors...i figured a sub that will do 1000rms with a lighter/stiffer cone might work better, and i had them do the coils @ dual 2ohm so i could take addvantage of the Massive amp setup 1ohm per side or 2ohm bridged...and get the rated power out of the amp and thank you for helping me i dont know much but im trying

accually i was thinking of building a fartboxx with a singel 15" as you suggested like the CRX boxx but need addvice. do you think 2.25cf is to small w/ flared ports outside the boxx ??? how do i go about telling whay the freq will be as there 6" each... i have 2 of em.

what do you suggest ? i have 2 - 6" flared ports i am using a single 15" in a box ported about 32Hz now and it gets pretty low... but its a slot port, box is 5.25cf FG resin internal

i really like the ported boxx great build... specs on boxx ?

looks wicked what are the specs ??? i have 2 - 6" flared ports im dieing to try...

Thank you for your response... i plan on trying to be @ every event in the area i was desiging a box that would be Usaci Legal, but im unsure as to the line...is it the rear window line, or the bottom of side windows near the b pillers ??? was going to do 2 15" fireing forward and port up / slot flared, or reuse my twin 6" presition ports flared 8cf gross. @ 30.5Hz do you have any suggestions, i am oppen to addvise and suggestions i still have access to 2 15" SoundStream T4 dual 1ohm subs and 2 15" Pap WMD-Spl subs link http://pierceaudioproducts.com/forum/index.php?topic=3.0 im in a 1996 Chevy 2500 x-cab, w/rear seat removed, floor has been installed,

i compete in 2 different Forums http://tbp.20m.com/ and http://soundandimage.20m.com/ i have i copied this from e-mail with Team SoundStream: When you decide to compete in a much broader area maybe we can discuss the possibility of a sponsorship. But as long as you keep your competition to a local area then there isn

Like him or not, Marshall's been around this and knows a heck of a lot more than you do, so I for one would probably be taking his advice if you want to scores to improve. Or you could do it on your own and struggle, either way. I think you're the only one here who thinks there's something to "have out" in the first place. Huh? be nice if i could get some addvise why is my mini wall a POS ? i was trying different things sence i cant seem to get help on line everyone is "i can beat you with a set of sparkomatic 6x9s a Kraco amp powered by a 9v battery in a cardboard boxx" but noone wants to offer addvice. WTF whos leg did i piss on ? i obviouslly need help why kick a guy when hes down ? wheres the thrill ? okokok your stuff is bigger & better than mine ! how does that help me get better SPL #s ???

so you bought three brand new subs....and one of them don't match the other two. cause you think you need one for music? So you didn't buy 3 or 4 of the same kind, you bought some mismatched crap...so no wall now (if you can call that pos you had a wall). i sold the SoundStream T4 subs. bought 2 matching 15" that are custom built per my request. lighter/stiffer cone handles 1000rms ea. i did better with 2 - 15" than 4 so i moved away from the wall idea. put more power to a set of 15s did a 151db. may i ask why you are bagging on me ? you seem to have an additude with me ?

Get matching subs................. i have a set that matchs the Pap WMD spl subs i.e. the Moab is a single 15" in a 5.25cf ported @ 32Hz as a backup when im not competting, just music

I shared....just not on this forum...!!! 150 with a single 15 and 1000w was a huge thing back then...not so much now. I taught....I still teach... Hell I even became a judge... Wrote a car audio segment for a magazine for a couple of years..... Was sponsored by 5 companies... Did research and development for one.. Did repairs and warranty work for two.. I took TN state championship 3 times.... I came in 2nd at world finals two times.... I took the World Title one time..... I broke 7 world records and reset them..... But das in the past LOL.... I help where I can now.... You have to learn alot more than just jam a bunch of subs in your vehicle and hope for the best. any addvice you can offer is welcome. i have a newer truck now it is a 1996 Chevy 2500 x-cab amp is a Massive p3000.1 2 pap WMD-SPL 15" subs 1000rms ea. 1 pap MOAB 15" 2000rms where should i start ?

i have a DMM ( wavetech ) what is the formula ??? how is it done ?

Thank you... how do i use it ? when i get it ?

is there a link ? i found a few on the net but dont know which one i need or what to do with it...

i know your right, but try and see it from mine if i make you a promise i keep it. why string me along then get me with a frying pan too the face ?

Pierce Audio should have sent you a ball cap and a shirt too. You are not really ready for core competition and this story just doesn't make sense. No manuf would be ready to sponsor someone to "REP" (omg i hate it when noobs say that) in one friggin town. Think about this..........from a MAN-STANDPOINT....... There are 50 states.........100 towns in each one (ballpark)...you think they would consider doing this to one person in each town? Or would they sponsor about 5 and have them blanket the USA as much as possible? Which one makes more sense? what is there to make sence of ? they made a promise they had no intention of keeping... they also had noone using Soundstream subs or anything else for that mater, in the DFW area i was kicking ass on the DFW area ands thats about it... the differance is when i make someone a promise, i keep it and respect others for the same... if you cant/wont come through dont offer to help, it makes you look like a Lier... and i agree with you, im not the best but im dam hard to beat around here !!! and if i win or lose im happy to be there. !!! 151db is nothing to fluff off... in an old beat to hell Ford F-150 that leaked air like water through a spagitti stranner...

once agine i think weve missed the bigg picture here 1. they approched me, asked me to rep for them @ the LOCAL competition's, they knew i had an OLD TRUCK 2. offered a Partial sponsorship, means i get a break on the price "NOT FREE" 3. i make a list of equipment i need. 4. i get a t-shirt & ball cap. 5. i wait till hell froze over and kept getting "were working on it" 6. 7 months later i get the crappy letter, after asking when there going to come through ??!!?? so this thread is just me letting people know im done waiting for them to keep a Promiss they had no intention of keeping... Pierce Audio asked me what i needed and 2 weeks later i had it

if I need to Measure the current draw from my Alt ? how is is done ?

well it sounds like you know more than i do would you share ? how you did it with a single sub ? boxx size cf? port freq: ? sub : Brama amp ? # of Batterys ? sub direction ? port direction ? ect ect ect if i knew how to do 150 with a single sub id share

not bad at all did a 147.3db and found that 1 of the ports had fallen into the boxx cuss i did not secure it properly just did the sweep , not burpped cuss i had no way to fixx the port @ the Show im using 2 6" Presisiotion flared ports...

I was doing 150.5db with one 15 (brahma and xxx) and 1000w in 2002 in pro-street. type of car/truck ??? a crx would be my guess

Bro my beef is that they offered then give me a BS excusse for not coming through ! and as for Uasci agine i dont have a problem with 80miles, i have a problem with everttime they even get close to Dallas TX is a freeking 65.oo event... Why the Hell would i pay them 65.oo when they wont even come to my home town ? everyone else gets 1 day events and only pay 35.oo but were off track here ! point is they offered then came through with a t-shirt & a ball cap WooHoooo that ought to get my DB right up there with Alma Gates... as for your 150db congrats... my old f-150 had been hit 5 times and i was scared to travle far in it as i thought it was going to break in half as i drove down the road !!! i have a newer truck now and can go wherever i need to... but you can bet your ass it wont have SoundStream in it ! iv had over 50 prople come to the Local Shows and ask "Wheres all your SS Subs" ??? and i Tell them why i removed it and Team SS has made it clear that they dont give a damm about us so why should i support them ?

we use TermLab Mics. Soundstream approched me, when a represenitave for them was at a LOCAL show here in Dalla$ / Ft Worth and was trippin cuss i pulled off a 149.1db with 3-15" SS T4 subs" and a lil Directed 1100d, in an old beat too Hell Ford F-150, he offered to help me get equipment so i could really waffell out some DB with bigger amps ect ect ect... so i build up a walls worth of 15" subs and got the Dear john letter. so im a lil Pissed off as they made the offer then jerked the rugg out from under me, Usaci Fu@ks us here in DALLAS TX by a. never comming here b. holding and event in south of Ft Worth and its listed on the site as ??? you guessed it DALLAS TX. over 80miles from here 1 way its a 3 day evenr & cose 65.oo to enter or So. Padre Island a 1000miles 1 way 3 day event blablabla SoundStream has there head up RR's @ss and USACI can SUCK my EVERLASTING GOBBSTOPPER. THEY HAVENT BEEN TOO DALLAS TX IN OVER 5YRS...they'll hold an event @ a gasstation/nail salon in nowhere usa, down a dirt road, BUT CANT FIND DALLAS TX on the map... we have 1 or 2 LOCAL shows a Month sence USACI cant seem to find DALLAS/Ft Worth TX, the other circut is a 1 or 2 shows a month as well, ALL LOCAL...
