    Mag 15 w/ 600 RMS?

    I had my Mag 15 running off of 600 watts for a couple months and it performed extremely well. You will be pleased, especially ported. Mine was sealed.

    new box and amp for Mag

    well I think I have a bunk tweeter. Swapped the tweeters to the opposite crossover and the same tweeter still does it. It is all brand new wire from speakers to crossovers in the trunk. So now I have to call a DA dealer and see about ordering a tweeter. This sucks.
  6. I just made a deal on a PPI PC2350 (thanks tirefryr for the heads up) and am going to build a new box for my mag to go with it. Right now my 15 is in a 2 cuft sealed box and I can hear that I need it in a little bigger of a box to get lower. Would 3 cuft be too much sealed? I can't wait to hear how this baby sounds with 1400 watts being thrown at it.

    new box and amp for Mag

    I have and had it set pretty good but then my HU was disconnected and lost all my settings so I have to go through it all again. I really just don't understand the "Q" setting now one of the tweeters is cutting out. Not sure what the hell is going on with it. But it is pissing me off.. Time to trouble shoot it.

    new box and amp for Mag

    Know of any other HO Alt dealers??? any websites or phone numbers I could call/visit? So now I have installed my new box (which I am very pleased with, especially since it is my 3rd box ever. 1st was a ported that was waaaay too big and probably not tuned correctly, second was too small, this one.. just right) and amp and am very happy with the performance of them together. Now I just need to get some elec upgrade. Looks like I will be doing the "big 3" this weekend maybe. I also have been working on installing my new set of DA Hex comps. I had them replace under warranty do to crossover failure. I ran all new wire though the doors to the cab back to the trunk where I am putting the crossovers this time. I got the passenger side all done and am going to work on the driver side tonight. I have to solve a water leak problem on the driver side first (gotta find where its coming from). This is my first component install and it was a pain in the A** but I am glad I did it the right way, the shop that first did it just spliced into the factory wiring and had a crappy about to fall off baffle the mid was mounted too. Now I have to tackle setting my HU EQ, etc. correctly. That is the real PAIN! I have a Alpine 9813 and the EQ and Crossover, I am just not good at setting on this thing. So any tips on some settings for it are very welcome. Sorry this reply is so long. Can't wait to get a mid bass driver to work with and install. (patiently awaiting SI)

    Blown magnum!?!?!

    Just hop on Ebay and pick up a cheapy for about $30 and wait. That's what I always do. Could be the reason I have a ton of drivers sitting here just not getting used. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i just go to my closet and pick up some of my "spare" magnums got 2 out of 4 in use at the moment <{POST_SNAPBACK}> geeee why don't we brag about our "spare" magnums, you lucky ****. j/k, why don't you send some of those spares this way.

    new box and amp for Mag

    know of a good place to get an alt? I have heard alot about Iraggi Alts (and his shop is about 10 minutes from my house, so that might work out).

    new box and amp for Mag

    Time for an electrical upgrade!! this PC2350 is really sucking some power from my system. So I am going to have to give it quite a bit of power. Should I get an Optima battery first or a HO alt first???? can't do both at once. How much do HO alts run? and how do I determine how big of an alt to get? When all is said and done I will have all these amps running in my system: PPI PC2150 (2 x 150) PPI PC2350 (1 x 1400) 2 - PPI PC250 (1 x 100)

    new box and amp for Mag

    I wouldn't say I like it, I absolutly love this sub! it is amazing. Sounds much better now in the new box as well. the extra room really did alot for it. It was in a 2.0cuft box. now all I need is *cough* SI 8" midbass *cough* j/k. I know you are hard at work on trying to get back up and running.

    new box and amp for Mag

    IT'S ALIVE!!!!!!! HOLY ****! I thought the Mag was impressive with just 600 watts on it. I can not even describe how this sucker performs now with my PC2350 on it. The gain is about half way up and this sucker is pumpin!! I haven't carpeted my box yet but will get some pics up today hopefully, if I can get my memory stick reader to work properly. I never had a problem with it until I had to reformat my computer and a reinstall my OS. Now it says there is no driver for it and the website says for win2k it does not need a driver download. who knows.

    new box and amp for Mag

    Got my PC2350 in and finished my new box. Just gotta let it sit over night to let the sealant dry, and the gorilla glue. The box comes to 2.45cuft. a little bigger than the previous 2.0cuft box it was in. Hopefully I should be able to tell a little difference. Not to mention pumping about 12-1400 watts to it. pics to come.

    If the pole vent on my D2 were larger and not as cold, I would make baby D2s with it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> uhh, I really love my mag too but I think you many need to see a doctor. j/k.... I wish my mag was making baby SI 8" mid bass drivers right now, hint hint.

    if your patient I would wait on the new SI drivers. Of course I don't know when they will be available. It could be a few months. But if you want something now like others have said the Brahma is a great sub that has great spl and good sq (of course I think the Mag has better sq) and also the RE XXX is another great sub spl and sq. you can't go wrong with SI, Brahmas, or RE XXX. I chose SI and am damn glad I did, I will be sticking with them for a while.

    well after seeing how much space I want to take up in my trunk. My new box will come out to 2.65cuft after driver disp.

    bad box ideas

    Dom lives right down the street from me. I take it you are not happy with the alt??? I was going to buy one from him.

    bad box ideas

    I have heard both. Mine was previously in a 4.25 cuft ported tuned to 30 and it was extremely lout, but the sealed adds a little more sq which is what I love with my Mag. It still gets PLENTY loud sealed and sound excellant.

    bad box ideas

    2 cubes sealed w/polyfill is ok, but I can tell once I get my 3cuft sealed box w/polyfil it will be much better. It just sounds like it needs more room to move. how much room should be bewtween the backplate/bottom and the back wall of the box??
