UpGradde

FI BL 12 Fully Loaded Great Choice!!!!! I had two of them on 3kw. LOUD!

GDamn you are one screwed up little animal. You're geeked up. OP Congrats, I bet you feel ontop of the world!!

Good thinking, but Id bet it would sound like shit.

What sub?

Build looks excellent. Want to know why you decided on facing the subs towards the vented chamber? I heard that you're suppose to have the basket/motor part of the sub into the vented chamber, as well as keeping the subs away from the port/aeros whenever possible (you aren't suppose to see the sub through the port). Read that somewhere a while ago. Not saying I agree with it, Hell, you can see part of the mag of my sub through the aeros on my 4th order. I'd like to know if there is any truth to that Other than that, I had the same results as you when moving from a ported to a 4th order. Bass is very deep.

Are you making your new enclosure above the window line? Keeping the same amp? Lets see some pics when you get it done.

Yep 2004 Chevy Malibu walled off port up top. I fully intend for this thing to rape numbers within a month or so. Each Warden is fed by an Mmats 4000, and I may get 2 more. One for each coil. That;s how ya do it son. lol I'll be watching.

Looks like a malibu 97-03 model, walled off.

Congrats on the job! I know you've been jobless for months...I know the feeling, it does feel great to start working again. Makes you feel more important (at least for me lol). Good luck on your new job Matt

well, let us know when you all agree on date and location, we will get it in the newsletter. Also, i'll pin this topic for you Nice! Appreciate that. Looks like 10am is a good time. I think everyone can agree on that. Date is 5/23/2010 which falls on a Sunday. Matt, can you confirm?

So far we have: 1. CadillacMatt 2. Jay-cee 3. inkfx 4. ecromeans 5. onebadmonte 6. Cthedinger 7. walker01s10 8. vic713 9. steavemead 10. UpGradde 11. Jakethesnake 12. oscar r 13. rodney 14. elblako91? 15. XxedgarxX Looks bigger than the first...

I would think so lol. We had all sorts of age groups at the first meet. Come on down and make the trip if you can

me? lol No, apparently there was a kid that was selling kicker subs at the meet.

Oscarch? lol ill go, hey i have a sign ontop of my box and its says " can you hear me now" i want to make another one that says " this aint ur normal soccer mom van" any ideas on something else? Yeah Oscarch, oscurt, oscart, oscurch, oscore, its all good lol. I like the second one better. That's original

it aint worth a dick. looks like facebook now, and I hate facebook.

The gator. You can finally run a multi sub setup (2+). That's what I would do.

Count me in, as well as Jacob, and Oscarch. We were all there for the original meet up (Orange Infiniti, volvo - now tahoe, and plymouth van). They don't get on anymore, so I will pass the word along. We will be there, weather permitting.

Looks good enough for me, impressive. Now I want to hear it.

Like the car, always liked that model. Looks like you are a great woodworker. Keep it up.

Don't have videos yet but this thing gets pretty damn loud and LOW! There is a notable difference that I can tell going from a ported enclosure to a 4th order. 1. Narrow passband (I guess thats what its called). Can Only play frequencies from like 28hz to ~50hz. Above 50, it looses output a LOT. 2. Bass is not precise (ie like a kick drum on a sealed or even a ported box). 3. Bass sounds very deep, engulfs the whole car with it, highs can keep up but on some songs the bass is just too overwhelming (thank you decaf). 4. Hardly any rattle from the trunk. I can open my trunk and not loose any output in the cabin. 5. A 4th order is perfect for rap music (which has a lot of low freq. material), but when it comes to rock/alternative, output isnt so great. Thats where an epicenter comes in lol. 6. Bottom line: If you want low and deep bass, and dont care about a narrow frequency range, definatley consider a 4th order. It is (at least from my experience) louder then a ported box. Overall I am satisfied with the output. The closest I can compare this system to was my 2 12 fi bls ported on a gp3kpro. Only difference is the 4th order gets lower but the bls get a lil bit louder ~1db is my guess. The TC shakes my steering wheel on songs with 30-35hz. I just cant believe the output for such a lightweight system, which was my goal, and I think I achieved it. Next move, rb25det!

Thanks for all the comments! I sure hope it is loud, we'll see tomorrow, i'll try and get some vids for my ssa brothas!
