Right on Shogen , thank you!

Thanks Cableguy!~ BTW, my gf wants her child support

hank you sir! So worth it, wish Id have gotten it yars ago... best $50 tool ever spent.

Thanks man!!

IDKY but he hasn't complained yet, but during "The Bass Will Destroy You" the 18Hz main tone and 18-13Hz sweeps rattle HIS windows lol. He's a cool dude!

Ive already got plaster separating from lathe, false sealing cracking, and had to put my ceiling fan back up once... if I had even one rotary, my house would most assuredly come DOWN! lol

The new Fi/Blueprint Audio driver gets a pass so the other three get shipped Friday. Nate at http://www.excessiveamperage.com/ hooked me up with Mario at [email protected] so I will be getting my second alt added soon! I will be pulling my again failing Iraggi alternator that Domanic Iraggi ripped me off on, Nate will repair it and let me know if it's even "HO".

5dB increments to see compression starting at -40dB ending at -10dB master volume. Yup, thats a 130dB peak Yup, thats solider than solid a 10Hz, yup, look at that 6Hz 15Hz on up DC on up ;)

!!OFFENSIVE LYRICS!! Now I am at the stage of just making a bunch of vids. Lights actually dimming from one EP4000 on one sub free air.

It was clipping.

Can an EP4000 be clipping without the clip indicating lights coming on? They are set to go on...Ive done it enough times with the IB3s to know, but maybe with it being at 2ohms it "doesn't know"? The sub is really out there in excursion before it gets too noisy, the amp gets warm, and the master volume is at -11dB which is 4dB louder than I ever have it and 14dB louder than I usually have it. Master volume being that high with 1/2 the impedance has me wondering, though even if I bring it to -9dB and it really gets loud, the clip lights still dont even tickle.

Im already getting lots of comments on the break in vids and I havent even posted them up yet, so I know when I do I'm going to get a lot more of this but: it is NOT bottoming out. I've been running subs free air full excursion as well as running subs full excursion loaded in enclosures for over 10 years. I generally know the difference between tinsel slap, air slapping the dustcap being forced through a pole vent, spiders pulling tight, rocking, scraping, bent coil, coil on bottom plate, cone on spider landing, surrounds pulling tight. I am no expert but I am no novice (despite loving to piss everyone off and doing things different, MY way not YOUR way ) Anyway, yes the sub is very noisy and I haven't figured out what it is yet or whether it will be an issue loaded or not, but here they are the EP4000 doesnt like a 2ohm load, even with just 1 sub free air 5 minutes into it

holding these just isn't the same as the IB3s and all the other subs I've done, so here's the break in rig I built for the cute little guys. Again thanks to zora, he has been an amazing seller all the way.

I don't know if I can hear it surpassing Xmax or if it's the hard plastic dustcap against the air behind it, but around 1/2 way it gets noisy. Not bad/broken noisy, just motor noise or something.

just nuts, completely changes my perspective on photos of big subs. no way I'd put BTLs, ULTRAs, or Wardens in my wall or HT. notnyt, I take it back... putting these in the towers? IDK... theyd be directly connected to 2"x4"s or side boards, but wow...IDK... and youre nuts having the 18's you have. nuts.

Thank you so much zora, pics do not do them justice... they are just ridiculous HUGE! Why would anyone want ULTRAs, notnyt? Are you INSANE?! lol jk jk.

The first sub should get here this week, when it does I'll have plenty of pics then free air break in vids off an EP4000. Until then, here's the latest walk though vid I did a few weeks ago showing the entire system when I had the IB3s in at the time.

quick plots for an idea of the old FR curve vs the new one, flatter... more low end, more high end, same middle

I went out of my way to explain the crossover points... silly people Why kill specific bandwidths? Several reasons. For me (NOT YOU) it is fun to show people who aren't as knowledgable as you what the different drivers do and what different frequencies are. Second, because I (NOT YOU) enjoy listening to certain things and not others sometimes. Sometimes I like to hear just the depths in the vocals for something, or hear just the treble in a certain part of a song. It is nice to be able to isolate it to check something out. Furthermore, it helps a lot to isolate specific drivers at certain times. I hear something in a song that sounds odd or out of place, I back up, kill the other drivers, replay. If it's in an overlapping region, I back up again, try it with the other driver. I (NOT YOU)_ find it very useful. Thanks for the encouragements guys, soon as I get the 1st driver (those pics I posted were what I received from the seller) I will take some more pics of it then free air it on an EP4000 and of course make too many vids of that as well

Oh there's going to be a serious waste of bandwidth before you know it!
