The way I see it is these guys spend their hard earned money and more importantly their time on my product I need to try as hard as possible to ensure they know they are supported and appreciated. One of my most important goals is to cater to the needs of people who sometimes without even thinking about it has the biggest impact on sales for my company. As long as my budget allows and it is not against any comp rules I'll be here to help.

You telling me my backs been hurting for two days now. On a side note. I'm gonna start slicing on a burp box tonight

If they were smart they would have set up a camera and fined their ass for stealing federal property

Simpson has a few nice ones as well. Y'all look around the interweb and see what you like.

I want something that screams "that dude competes for DSS". Not that's a cool shirt where did you buy it.

Not sure. I want something extremely nice and professional. Not some cheap dickies button up shirt.

The sub would go in the floor but I have ok fiberglass skills. You'd only lose 3 or so inches of depth in the trunk.

I think that applies to anything you like doing that you turn into a career. I know I could care less if I evere install another head unit again.

Thanks for the welcome! I've been working and spending time with the lady, but I had some time. I did the best I could to get dimensions, and I even snapped a couple pics. Before we get started, let me show you guys what i'm working with here. So, from how I measured, I want to play it on the semi safe side to make sure it gets in, and to have a tiny bit of trunk space left over. Really though I just don't want have a box that's too big to fit so I played it pretty safe on the numbers. Here's what I got. Entry size 35" inside trunk: 17" deep 38.5" wide from wheel hub to wheel hub (i'd have to remove that stock pitiful sub) 12.5" height Those are my numbers I got. Again, they're a little safe, but I just wouldn't want a box too big to fit. So there's a couple inches give i'd say in a few directions. Now then, back to some questions. I have no idea, when I get the sub, since i'm going single setup biggest sub I can fit, what ohm should I get the XCON? I know nothing of wiring. Also! There may be a spot for the batteries. Under that trunk there's a wheel well with a full size spare tire. Surely I could fit batteries where a full size tire fits. Also, i'm not sure how much an alternator runs, but i'm sure I could work it into my budget. I ave to make sure that wouldn't void my warranty or anything just h. I remember I went to one shop and he was trying to sell me a HO alternator pushing about 216 amps for about $1 an amp I think. It was a year ago though so it's hazy, but i'm sure I could work it into my budget. Just gotta make sure I won't' void anything. Any help is appreciated here to decide which size sub best will fit my needs. I'm really open to suggestions. I trying to be as optimal as possible with what space I have. Perhaps i'll get another battery while i'm at it and throw it in the spare tire well and throw out the tire. I honestly hadn't considered an extra battery. Sounds like a good idea though. I'd really appreciate a designed box if you can take the time to do that for me. That'd be amazing. All I can think of of what i'd want from the box is for it to pound out lows and be loud so I can feel the bass (along with others around me ). So I know ported, and tuned around 32. I honestly don't know how low you can go and be advised to tune that low, but I figure 32 is good. Thanks for the welcome! Don't worry about voiding warrany. It is federal law that the repair shop has to prove the aftermarket has caused damaged to the vehilv causing a voide i nwarranty

I am very very very very very glad they decided to not make it look like a stock vette. It'll gonna tear the new viper a nes arseho without a doubt. especially with the PS2's. And I am a die hard viper fan. I'd still get a gen 4 acr and throw on a twin turbo and spank that ass on the track

I come from 12 years of gifted visual arts so I realy appreciate the artwork. I just not fond of the canvas. However no one can argue with are intellect and skill it takes to create artwork like that. I fully admire it strickly as are I just don't prefer the canvas. I much more enjoy it framed in a venue.

w40 has some bninb stuff for sale right now. id jump on it. He sells more stuff here than the SSA stuff here more than likely. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase from him and I've sold a few things to him as well. I'm also partial to Incriminator. I'd do one of their lower line subs, theri 500 watt amp, a nice customs box and wiring from Knu concepts, and maybe an addaptor if needed. This should be well with i nyour budget and be plenty loud. All this can be found in SAA's store

I'll be doing a little Sq stuff mybe start with prototypes by the end of the year. Most of all that is over my head so Ill give the gurus a budget and see what they ca come up with. I just want to show a little face at some of the venues

You can't. They are different. I've been an IA dealer for 6 years.

This is what I need. I am a comp/show noob. I haven't been to a show in a decade. I will definantly be at scraping as it's in my back yard.

Don't know about now but in the day they were THE go to guys for alts. EVERYONE used there stuff. But this was 15 years ago.

On one of the most recent threads here the man how designed the unit stated that is is only capable of measuring a couple frequencies. It is not a wide spectrum analyzer. For example it may detect destitution at 500 and 1,000 hertz but nothing below, between, or above.

Samples were built and Klippeled however at large signal there wasn't enough shift in parameters from stock format to offer it.

If you need help with the box I know a guy who knows a guy.

Yes sir!Nice! I'm getting some ethos soon too. I just need to figure out if 15s will fit, if not then definitely some 12sfrom my understanding they like a small boxYea they do! Quentin had designed them to work well in small boxes.Have you checked this out? http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/topic/59904-ethos-bandpass-option/?hl=%2Bethos+%2Bbandpass I had looked into the option for a strictly BP option but found it was needed after final large signal Klippel testing. The stock spider pack does well in ~3.5 total cft with a passband of ~ 25-75 hz

Found a refurbished HP EliteBook 6930p for $265 shipped. Wondering if there are any better deals out there. It MUST be 32 bit to run the fea programs i use. specs on the one I found intel core 2 duo 2400 mhz processor windows 7 professional 32 bit memory 4096 mb 320 gig serial ATA hard drive dvd-rw 802 11 ab6 wireless card not too worried about graphics or audio. will just be using this for fea analysis and a little web surfing.

A clipped signal creates more power over a given period. This is the only thing that will kill a sub. The coil is just a wound up wire it doesn't care what type of power it recieved as long as it does not exceed it's thermal rating it won't break. The only other reason for failure would be the tensil leads breaking which should not be an issue as the parts should work well past the mechanical clearance of the edge. Or the coil is bottoming out and the coil is shorting out on the back plate. But you should be able to hear that.

Thanks bro. I think your right on the moneyNot a prob. I normally am.
