I've got to get to the meter after I posted I farted around and took out the t-line and deadened the wheel well and positioned the pap and added another battery. This thing feels like it's going to cause some damage to my car. Before I had subs back and port back now I have sub up and port to the passenger side. I can feel the air movement a lot more.

I blew my tweeters last night. I need some recommendations on a set to match the hertz 165's. I have the gain turned down to around 1/8 power and they were suppose to handle 100 rms. Hawk let me know if you would like it back I think I want to try something that is a proven 150+ capable. I'll know soon enough if this is capable when I go to use my friends therm he has 2 aq 3500's . The pap is loud and my box is efficient. I did get my doors deadened too.

I hated the .6 box I was using too! But I'm with the others on port restriction.

My goal is 146 db. I hope it isn't unrealistic on one saz 1500. This should be a solid starting point for a move into the street class when I have to.

Hawk sub should be playing again shortly. Hawk when is the 3 month by back date? I got a PWK design and have almost completed the build. Photos to follow. After I've completed testing I'll decide if I'm going to double up on the 8's and run 4 or the 15 for comps. I'm trying to stay in MECA AS1 or 2 and DB 1-2. I added another fuse block and ordered some 30's and 40's we'll see what I can get away with.

I've been meaning to ask if there were any negatives besides the extra weight in running separate boxes? I may stack the t-lines for 4 - sa 8's.

I am running 2 SA 8's on a SAZ 1500.

Did the SA 8 re cones arrive?

I am extremely happy with the Hertz 165 components I recently purchased.

In Meca where less is more. What fusing should I drop down to on an saz 1500? A little more info for my particular install. Amps SAZ 1500 SAX 100x4 Power Stock alt 2 yellow tops for a total of 88 amp hrs Subs 3 sa 8's I would like to run in the lowest class possible

Ohh and picks or it didn't happen.

:woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: I got 2 trophy's at the meca but you got a 1st place. 2nd is just the first looser.

Thanks for the tips! I have dropped down to 2 SA 8's in a horn, which by the ear is way louder. I have a meter locally and testing will either confirm or deny my ears. I have several items to install 100 sq ft of dampener, hertz energy 165's and a set of zapco components. Soon but not this weekend LAS VEGAS here I come. Correct me if I am wrong but I believe I can configure the following applications with the equipment and boxes I have. Boxes available: T line for 2 8's For 3 SA 8's - 1.8 cu ft ported @ 33 with 1 4" aero (this design has already been rejected not enough port) test out at a 134 db For 3 SA 8's - 2.4 cu ft kerfed ported @ 35 Cone area's for 8's 1= 50"sq 2= 100"sq 3= 150" sq 4= 200" sq Fusing for 2 SA 8's possible 50 amp (40 x 100 plus surface area of 100) AS1 class or DB1 3 SA 8's possible 75 amp (75 x 100 plus surface area of 150) AS 2 or DB2 4 SA 8's possible 30 amp (30 x 100 plus surface area of 200) AS 1 or DB1 4 SA 8's possible 80 amp (80 x 100 plus surface area of 200) AS 2 or DB2 Sorry but I'm new to competition just covering my bases. Last question I'm planning to build another t-line box and just double stacking the boxes. Is this advisable vrs just doing another enclosure for the 4 speakers?

I got a coffee cup scribbled on from my 2 and 4 year old. Wonder what the other 3 will get me? My plan is church BBQ and a nice nap. Enjoy your family.

Shine baby Shine. What are the classes you guys ran?

I'm line to set some scores right with you guys in the neighborhood of 145. Lots of love stay safe. Soapbox

On the Calf is cool. I have both of mine done. As a machine builder I frequent a lot of shops and review dozens of artist work. One of the most important choices for me when choosing an artist is STYLE. Sure they all say they can do anything but what do they excel at? And what is your preference? Black and White? Traditional? New School? You may like various styles but remember it doesn't look good when they are mixed together. PS take a look at my sig and the machines I've built.

Make sure you share your faith too. I'm waiting for reports.

Porkchop here are some GOOD format tonesRadiation cd on PWK

this design would work for 4 sa 8's.

This happened yesterday what happened?

Jacob I need you to review this electrical for use with 2 saz 1500's strapped at 1 ohm. 180 alt 2 batcap 2000.

The strapped amps will be for comp only. I've inquired around for almost a year about getting a ho alt for my Honda Fit and the only one available is 180 amp FTL. Ken do you think I could hold voltage for 30sec runs of music? I have 3 optima's too. In the drive by class I'm not limited to 2 batteries like the SPL burp class. Thanks for the reply

If you send them to chop make sure he post them up he's like doa lately. I got some hertz 165's today I smoked the stock comps already.
