Are there any other "normal mods" the LS engines like? Truck is a DD so tearing into it too far is not an option. , I can't wait to hear how it sounds CAI, long-tube headers, cat-back, and a tune will be a very good start from there.... the sky's the limit I luv the sky probably also toss in a 160* thermostat. LS series motors respond very well to nitrous... but it's not necessary.

You really wanna get your 6.5"s lower than that. My suggestion would be 63hz-200 for the doors... A great option for you is the hybrid audio legatia l4... I think they even sell 3 way kits that would be an l6, l4 and l1... Of course I'm probably breaking the bank too.

Since we are talking about hertz and peerless, he should be able to build a more than competent 2 way system to cover 50-20khz. But what adrian_D said is what I was trying to say shorter and more understandable.

Can't sleep and the sun is coming up. Can't get my sound quality project off of my head. Ohh today I went to a dealership that had a used camaro sitting on the lot and asked the salesman if it was all right if I took some measurements for a project I was doing... I think he though I meant external dimensions, not internal. I measured kickcs door-panels, the trunk, the battery tray, floors, dash, the headliner etc... So I could get a ballpark figure on how much wiring/sound-deadening I would need. Classic times, than he walked out and asked me if I wanted to test drive it. "It has a corvette motor in it" and I turned around and as seriously as I could I asked him "since when do corvette's come with a 6 cylinder motor?" and I went home.

You get what you pay for, I have a nice yamaha box set in my room but I have a horribly shaped/ acoustical prperties etc in my room. Box-sets are good for people who don't know any better, and they sound ok, but nothing stellar. No jaw dropping mids/tweets that bring your movies/gaming/cd's/records alive.

nice score for a single 18". Now you know why street class cars have it so tough, our car is off during scoring.

I'm a little confused on your hertz selection. I would vote hertz, are you looking to do a 8" 3 or 4" and tweet. From what I read you listed 8" and 6.5" which play the same frequencies (for the most part)... Normally you grab that third driver becauxe of frequency limitations of the tweeter. Any time you can minimize drivers the more natural sounding the system will be (without countless hours of tuning). To put this in perspective, my SQ build in the fall is using an 18" woofer to cover 10-50hz, an 8" driver to cover 50- about 2200 hz, and than the tweeter is taking it from 2200-30khz. I would personally grab the space series tweeter (large chamber, not small) and than grab a 7" midbass from dls, peerless, etc... If I remember the pricing correctly though, you are probably spending enough on the hertz components plus the 8" midbass to just grab the hertz space series 8" component system.

sorry, not completely talkative tonight?

efficiency
audio-neon replied to denalilvr's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Honestly good quality solid state amps will have a negligible difference in SQ for the average consumer. -
you are probably going to be the first person to run a btl in a TL enclosure that wasn't built for spl only. I'm sure scott will have input when he see's this

off to work again, be back on later when the patients are sleeping.

the Fi BL will not dissapoint. I will second the suggestion on the sundown audio saz-1500d.
-
what a teaser, I can't see pics at work. What happened?
-
I've decided that until the fall when I start my new build i'm gonna work on my finishing skills. Primarily with fiberglass, but a little on my carpentry as well. Can anyone say door pods for a car i totalled over a year ago... just for practice.

Thanks man, it was fun competing for the first time. My goal was a 135, possibly a 140, when I hit what I did I was extremely happy as I honestly did not think I was above a 140. This is my last competition with these subs though as I will be upgrading SQ wise to a single new Mag in 1 cubic foot sealed. I want my cargo area back, lol, and the setup I have now is just simply way overkill for what I want, I just am not an SPL guy, I am SQ however I will run it next year for the hell of it, but I expect ~ 130dB in Street A. I hear you there. I'm not an spl guy either and when oppurtunities became available for me to jump back on the SQ wagon i'm already there.
-
Make sure you emailed SSA for the saz-3000d price. It's not as bad as you think and after you have owned one sundown amp you will understand why Jacob has soo many fanboys.

I'm leaning towards an ixl18.4 in infinite baffle... or atleast that's the plan. I'm just looking for a woofer to cover the 10-50 hz range, the lower the better. I might have to step it up to 2 ixl18.4's if the output below 16 hz isn't enough, lol.

cold air intake, tornado fuel saver, k&n air filter
audio-neon replied to jonbearsmt's topic in Automotive and Performance
Have used k&n drop in's in my neons forever, net ~7 whp. Downside is my throttle body needs to be cleaned every 20k miles now, or else the car gets finicky and likes to stall when coming to a stop. *sorry, my step-dad (the one I live with, don't live with my father) teaches automotive and has beaten this into my head sooo many times, and while my terminology may not be perfect (sorry it's 3 am) I have had this beaten into my head. The tornado product did not show a gas mileage gain in my neon, and the cold air intake was causing detonation, but it wasn't a stock motor at that point and needed to be tuned to see a gain in horsepower, didn't really affect gas mileage iirc*
