oh I know it's bad. There's absolutely no deadening material at all in the truck. Just amusement.

Finally got some decent footage of the flex. Havn't really done much since the build log thread since other things have taken up a lot of time. Be sure to watch it in hd

Here's some roof goodness

Yeah who knows. Hopefully get it metered by anton miller before winter time.

6.8 cubes, tuned to 36hz. Havn't put it on the meter yet, although a local guy who posts here has offered. Just havn't had the time and this thing barely gets driven anymore.

That one of those magnetic ones? Where you get it?

Damn man you need to wd40 that door or something.

Measuring amplifier output (wattage)

The clamp is the best way to do it, yes. -
it's "time" not "tym."

Why "daily" systems should not count on impedance rise

Do you understand how electricity works? Answer that first before asking a question like that. -
Enclosure Build for Mark @ SSA!! (Installed, P.7)

pfft...primer doesn't take THAT long to dry. -
First of all read the noob posting guidelines 2nd of all, need the drivers being used and vehicle for starters.

Could be the angle or the lighting. But generally aluminum coils are darker than copper. But that looks really dark! I may have read wrong but it could have gotten pretty heated while being played without the motor force behind it to move it and cool it.

oh shit...It appears my phone's mic is pretty good at not distorting...too bad the camera sucks ass at video.

15'' BL fully loaded suddenly acts weird, please read
akrod2as replied to mikemihai's topic in General Fi
Lol, i just want to on that wall and burn it down.(If it was toyota that were to hit the wall...id get a replacement ) So the bracing and sub adds @ 2 more hz to the box making it at @33hz, is that what killed it u think? I mean it ran fine for ( i counted today) 7 months, so its just weird to me, im gonna check again the settings on the amp to see what the subsonic filter was set to. supposed to be 2hz under the box's hz. On the website it says have it tuned at around 33hz so the box is not out of specs also, for port area it says 12-16 square inches of vent area per cubic foot. I have a 66inch vent area with 4.611 cubic feet (7964cu inch) so im within limits(14square inch vent area per cu foot) according to re audio, but i know after the bracing its really @ 170-200 less cubic inches, so not a big difference at all. then about .21 cu ft displacement from the sub. so im not sure how u got a larger spec for the box ("Which would mean the box is 4.83 cubic feet".) either. Also the bracing & sub should not bring the total cubic feet down by much, leaving still about a 15.3 cubic inches of vent area per cubic foot of space, so im still within the 12-16 inch specs off the fi website.Sooo, in other words my box should be okay, im gonna check my subsonic filter to see if that is set around 31hz for the 33hz box, b/c if it was lower all this time then thats not good. I remember after my friend and i set it up, i didnt touch it anymore, so i dont rem exactly what it was left at, i just kinda assumed its set around @30 hz. but im gonna check to make sure. and post again if the subsonic filter its okay, then assuming the amp has no bad parts then neither the box or amp caused any problem, so im gonna check my battery to see if theres a huge voltage drop on a deep beat, and also gonna check my head unit to see if theres anything wrong with that. Alsooo i need to know how much a recone would cost me and what does it come with, i looked on the site already and was a little confused, didnt see anything talking about spiders, i need a new spider, VC its okay, it can be reused in fact is that possible? its still good it seems and had the more expensive flatwind wire or whatever its called. Also does the recone come with new cone and dust cap? so basically they gonna repair my sub to like new conditions? if so then how much $$$ will it be to send it in, not counting shipping? Thank you A recone includes the spiders, former, vc, cone, and surround all in one unit that you replace. -
I've seen that happen during shipping damage. I've repaired a first run RE SE 12 that had that happen and it is still operational to this day and has been pounded the piss out of. God bless the old boob RE's.

Running Strapped Amps at 1 ohm?

you just linked to a thread that the op of this thread created sir -
iPad as new Head Unit
akrod2as replied to BanginGMC's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
And if you wanted it to do that you'd have to set your headunit to the max listening volume you do, and then control the volume via the ipad. -in response to bagingmc -
iPad as new Head Unit
akrod2as replied to BanginGMC's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
exactly what I've said already. Need something to boost the signal be it headunit or line driver if you were to use this without a headunit. -

You obv had your gains misadjusted and fried the tinsel leads. -
You can use it for anything. Only difference is you don't get paypal protection using this method, thus why I said if you trust the person. and it appears I did not remember correctly. It either went up to a dollar or I never noticed enough to care. I used to sell a lot on ebay and would direct pay my supplier with it.
-
If you trust the person you're buying shit from just use mass pay to send the money. 50 cent flat rate fee. I've sent tens of thousands of dollars this way.
-
Yeah don't dick with the built in eq settings. Like has been said before in other threads, eq'ing down is better than eq'ing up. But, whatever you do, set all that up before setting your gains. Subsonic should be slightly lower than the tuning of your enclosure. lpf is all based on how you want it. bass boost leave turned off. And you can mess with the phase but most leave it at 0.

iPad as new Head Unit
akrod2as replied to BanginGMC's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
If you were to use just the ipad, you'd need some line driver iirc and a signal processor to do it right.
