Impedence rise = a female dog because it chokes power... you may think you have 1700 watts, odds are...it's more then half of that

make sure if you can sand the bloody hell out of that basket before you glue it back down

18 12's..aint see no wires..

We were going to do one later on in the year like we did the 8 challenge... But if they are really feeling giddy and want to go for it...by all means do it

Listen to a woofer with litterally No BL...and look for transient response.... Then listen to a woofer that has 30-40tm (if you really wanna get giddy let's say 150-200tm of Bl) of Bl with an XBL^2 gap...the transient response is awesome, but..it doesn't peak! I guess LMT has its place...i don't really 'care' for it per say...one of my favorite speakers of all time just for listening is the JBL WGTi...which uses neither technology... I like XBL^2 equipped woofers, however the cream of the crop has yet to see the light of day though

...unless an orion 2500d is way overrated at 2 ohm... Ding Ding Ding! We have a Winner! - For the record Impedence rise = female dog. Briefly...of course...ever put 15kw of actual power to a "SQ" woofer for 3 seconds? You'll see pics soon...and numbers

no way in hell, that coil wouldn't last

dude just fiberglass a little wall inbetween the tweet and the mid... problemo solved

Eh...whatever You ladies have fun going back and forth

you all totally missed the part about the concept of "LMT" being around since the late 1970's.. xbl^2 has only been out for 4 years now I'd say that "LMT" is more then...developed...

If you say that an xbl^2 enabled woofer isn't "all that it cracked up to be" then you posess the kind of ears that like a certain amount of THD...along with subtle peaks...xbl virtually eliminates that...to some people it sounds very 'dry'...it is pretty just a fact of life that every user's "taste" is different - there is nothing a manufacture can do about that This concept that LMT uses has been around since the late 1970's...iirc... It does have some issues (inductance)...and the fact that it's very hard to get the motor Q's down..and within a manageable margin... Think what ya want...i'm still dead set on the little known fact that a high excursion woofer with an aluminum cone is gonna buckle/snap/be prone to failure once sold to the general public (you know how people can tear chit up...you say it is unbreakable, they'll find a way to break it) my 2 cents..

"What da hail guys...what da hail".... "N..nnnnn..n.n...now damnit skawdie....don't let the wang hang"... :D

they sexi like woah

Go outside on a night where it's 3 degrees and yell... Go outside in Miami in the dead heat of July and yell... Tell me what you find out

LMAO If you went to tottieville...then you understand...it's a whole new language out there and/or around shows

ooooooooooooooooooooor we can use it

LOL.. I was about to say...wait a second...that one wasn't gooped and glued tottie proof...

12's and 15's are first priority... Later on..possibly i'd say - but for the time being, no.

funny how everything seems to be a so called "LMT knockoff".... do you have any idea how long that concept has been around?

are you talking about the WHOLE sub out of phase...or the vc's out of phase from each other??? can be both...whole sub out of phase sounds horrid, and the voice coils fighting each other isn't exactly a good thing either...and is very noticeable

no it wont hurt it, if you have them wired out of phase they'll sound frickin awful, much like your describing (no low end, just sound like a chitty midbass driver)

No..as in you have the negative for the positive and vice versa. Flop the polarity around on the sub and see if you have something bunked up there...

You've got it wired out of phase....

Yep, actually a pro sound sqish oriented woofer

Bone stock WGTi's...i know for a fact Mike Bartells has had the most success with them...did a 174 and some change with 4 15's! No doubt about them, they are one of my favorite woofers of all time
