Sweet. Do your thing.

I lost dbs painting the inside. Had to sand it all off. Every truck is different though. I have a plan for when I build the new enclosure.

DSS Tridents and Twisted Sounds S-10. Road to 166dBs
stevemead08 replied to stevemead08's topic in Build Logs
Thanks guys. Getting it dialed in. Still chasing my first score of 60.8. Like a crack head chasing his first high. 60.3 is the best I've seen out of it in a while. Hoping that a sub swap will yield better numbers. Maybe even recone the Ethos so they are new and stiff again. -
I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but mine still look brand new. I've seen a few guys complain about the leads. I still have the original cones. Even after multiple multiple multiple 160+ burps. I've yet to find a problem. Maybe I know when to turn the volume down, maybe because my amps are set clean, maybe I don't have enough power. It's funny though because after hearing about these issues others were having, I got scared and ordered a spare recone. Still new in the box. Thanks Quentin.

A buddy of mine in Houston is heading this project. I think it's pretty sweet and wanted to share. Paul came to me several months ago looking for a source for subs for this project. I turned over his contacts to Quentin and the rest will be history. I'll update this thread as more videos come available. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8p9a5kUpWGU&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Thanks. Not too shabby for a "stock" class truck with 2 3k amps. -
I'm gonna grow my hair out for finals so I can get a hair trick.

Arkansas was awesome. Met some great people. Did my personal best at a show 160.3 Set a new Arkansas state record. Saw some more interest in DSS and did my best to represent proudly. -
Big number.

B2 for the win! Those amps are beast!

Would this help my SQ truck?

Anyone in Nashville have a place I can store my trailer while attending the show? I don't really want to leave it sitting by itself at the fairgrounds. -

Lol that wasn't nothing. Maybe this time we can have a few beers somewhere. You need anything while in town I got you! Hey, take him up on it! I live close to him and I don't get that kind of hospitality. LMFAO j/k. we've shared a beer or 2. Although, we did talk about drinking a few times recently. I'll take him up on it. I'll buy the beer though. -

Lee, can you run me to home depot real quick? Just playing. That was very 'stand up' of you in Indy. -

Little update since heatwave. The truck itself has been running like crap, won't stay started, Ect. Got that fixed. Gonna do some maintenance items while I'm at it. LOF, coolant, trans service, and whatnot. Anyways, I just looked back and realized I never posted results of heatwave. Burp class 751-1500@4ohm class, Burped a 159.6 on almost zero testing. I had just got the truck back playing before I put it in the lanes. Since nobody else was in my music class, I was messing around during my run. That's the video senchez posted. That's not an actual score, I have no idea why he even posted that in my build log. Well, I have an idea, but ill leave it alone. No my truck doesn't do a 146 on music. Now is a good as time as any, I have ordered up subs, from 2 different manufacturers to see what is loudest, and of course what will actually fit. I have very limited space so I'm sceptical. When the DSS Tridents come out, ill test them out too. Stay tuned. -
All parts available to build ourselves?
stevemead08 replied to mccleery3's topic in Direct Sound Solutions
Ship time is just a few days... Wouldn't much benefit from building yourself. -
Spl problems. More is not always better and shit never makes sense. My loudest score in my truck is not on the most power I've clamped.

Well it's more like a modular wall. It fixes to the top of my super stock enclosure. I'll take pics tonight to explain better.right now the ethos are in there and doing very well. The truck sure came alive with lower tuning. Not as loud on the meter, but very impressive for 3 15s tuned lower.
