  1. Why are you running the amp at 2 ohms?
  2. You should crimp it too.

    Shipping charge??

    They used to have it included in the price, now the subs are cheaper cause shipping isn't included.

    Badmouthing my setup

    I get it all the time. I haven't met anyone knows more then mainstream brands, a few guys with DD and RE but very little. Needless to say they are VERY shocked when I show them the power of Sundown.
  7. Shoulda gone to Sears and gotten a Die Hard. More power in the same case.Friends and family night is actually this Sunday starting at 6, you'd get 10% off.

    SPL15 - Inverted not as loud

    I feel I should apologize. I didn't mean to jack the thread. Somehow my theory works in my head, it's more difficult to type it for you to understand it. Sorry guys.

    SPL15 - Inverted not as loud

    This ^ doesn't make sense at all. I've read it 3 or 4 times and I still can't understand it. All the power in the box ? You never hear the rear wave ? Essentially yes, it does sound weird but it works... In essence you are putting all the sound in the enclosure, and you really won't hear much of it, the sound is meant to come from the front of the cone not the back. The rear sound wave never leaves the enclosure, is that what you don't get? Sound is not meant to 'come from the front', it is meant to come from a perturbation in the air, which can be cause by a cone moving back and forth, 2 wings flapping, a door beeing shut etc. The subwoofer is not a fan or hose which moves air in one direction which is what can be understood from your explanation. The cone oscillates back and forth and produces sound. It does not shoot air forward. Or backward. Not air, sound waves. If the sound never leaves the enclosure then why wouldn't you just use a sealed box all the time. Because there is no release of pressure in the enclosure, there is with a vented enclosure and they are more efficient because of it.

    How did you guys find SSA???

    Is he a member?
  16. u should get a single powermaster. it will cost u a lot less than a kinetik. i dont know about the dekas and how good they are as i have no experience with them. people rave about them tho as they are not that expensive and do work. i would also be interested to see the data sheets www.remybattery.com Thanks yalll. It is a 130A. I dont think that would change much though. Which Deka do I get off the website because it looks so confusing and they have little specs. It looks like most of em are the same battery. 9a31

    SA 12's Port (box)

    That's much more complicated, but if you want to. Stick to 12-16 square inches of port area per cubic foot. I personally did 15 square inches per cube ant it's worked well for me.
  18. sorry guys kind of new to this, setting up the pioneer avh-p4000 in a conversion van. the only part im having troubles with is on the relay that says "decks remote turn on wire" Can anyone explain what that is or provide any figures or pictures.. Thanks a bunch That is a 12 volt switched power. It turns your amplifier on and off.

    18" BTL enclosure type

    Only 5-6 cubic feet? You realize that you have 19 cubic feet available? I say about 8 cubic feet with 120 square inches of port area tuned between 30-35 hz.

    SPL15 - Inverted not as loud

    How doesn't it make sense to you? There is more air displacement on the inside of the enclosure when inverted so you LOSE output on the outside of the enclosure, because all the "power" is in the inside of the box, and you never hear the rear sound wave.
  23. I wouldn't recommend letting them build your enclosure. You can build your own for cheaper and it will probably outperform theirs and be better quality. If you don't want to look into www.fishercustoms.com or www.poundthatsound.com both make phenomenal enclosures.
