Just thought I would let folks here know that the MJ-18M will begin shipping in about a week. I am just waiting for packaging. I had mentioned voice coil options and I plan to deliver on this. Very soon there will be a 2 Ohm and 1 Ohm version available. Those who want the 4 Ohm version can purchase them now - you will be placed in front of the order line. Thanks for your patience. Mark

I'm not sure what this is but it looks nice

Here are the shot of the display. Very nice...

A couple of shots showing the round-over work:

Here are some more pictures of the install - some of the finer workings of the amp 'rack' and the screens he installed on each of the rear sides so you can watch what it is he's playing for you.

Yeah, sorry. Shoot me a (new) PM please and I'll be happy to help you. Best, Mark

I do...

Yes, the tooling has being acquired to finish these things off. Unfortunately, things don't go as fast as one wishes, but I anticipate it will move faster once the CNC gets set up. Apologies for the delays.... Best, Mark

:bigclap: Murilo is doing it - he's got a pre-order for the SounDigital 5000.1d going on right now: http://www.****/forum/s...read.php?t=9698 Make sure you add a few bucks for shipping costs, but pound-for-pound, you won't find a better buy than this. Period. Oh, and to the naysayers who think there is no way to get that much power from such a small footprint, hang tough - we will be at Tulsa in October for the finals!

I'm sorry it is taking so long. I've had some personal issues that have/had to be dealt with first. Best, Mark

The only time I would suggest drilling holes in the cap is if you intend to push them *very hard*. Otherwise, don't bother. Thanks, Mark

I should have some information up tomorrow for the IXL-15.2.2. It will begin with a EB-based design with some real-life measurements. I will follow through in the coming days with some testing of the IXL in-car. Nearfield, frequency response, impedance and other info will follow. Best, Mark

Here's some shots of the stripped truck and the sub box going in:

Man, is that site ever a shit fest. Nothing but garbage ads everywhere. Thanks for posting the link Sean, there have been very few who have used the 15 in a car environment. Best, m

So you're back now. how was the trip?

Big power, small footprint. Yup, these are serious amps. More info coming.

Pictures of the sub baffle. Notice the nice contouring in the last couple of pics:

I'll post more tomorrow

The wiring of all this must have been a feat in and of itself. Here are some shots of how things came together in this area:

It has been awhile since I have updated this thread - strictly my fault as Dave has been sending me updates and I have neglected to post them. So we continue the trek down Dave's lane and his quest to get this work of art completed:

Last weekend I made up a modified MJ-18M and we decided to do some power testing using a SounDigital SD-12k. This unit has a single 1 Ohm voice coil and a couple of other mods: The box we placed it in. Not sure what the size or tuning was as it belonged to Murilo. Perhaps he can comment on it: First test went fairly well with 1.5kw: Second test did better with more power: Third test was with 11.6kw of power: Fourth test didn't produce any more output but the FrankenMJ took quite a bit - almost 16kw(!): That's pretty decent power for a single SD-12k amp!

So we did a BassRace with the same driver today. We found that 4kw was a bit too much for it. 3kw is more the happy place. This would be a good driver to use at 139.9

Yeah, despite the crappy weather it was fun. I want to get Murilo to BassRace it now... hehehe
