got 3 of my 6 sa-12s and a single 1500 for a temp amp. made a box for the rango to demo to a shop, 4.4@30 hz still need to do some finish work will get picks up soon, low to mid 140s kills on all music hehe

need to get a 1/2 threaded rod through the middle, and glass inside and out. ill have it wrapped ready for glassing tonight will post pics after i get off work, like i said i kills the lows and then does a double drum roll like cake lol

what are you wired at, what car is it, stock electrical i take it also? is the amp warm after it shuts off?

shibby thx

cant wait, plan on using a couple of these this year..... sexy

3 sa-12s d4, saz1500, dd ddc6.5s, sax125.2, pioneer 7100bt...... 4.4cf@ 30hz 15sq in of port per cube, 00 rango, running at .66ohms

also where do you get off saying amps rated at 1 ohm can only got down that low? many amps that are "RATED" at 1 ohm can go down to .5 or even .3, if you havent used the amp yourself i wouldent give a cookie cuter response

you dont per say need a volt meter just dont go crazy lol, and a volt meter is still off a bit, an o scope is is the only true way to set gains perfectly, but those are a pretty penny to lol*** and dont worry if you are getting 1200w, your not, but thats ok just make sure your not sending a clipped signal

and duran that pic has been used more than your mother....... lol jk had to mess with ya

wow u must be right i have clamped that amp on music, and the full range of test tones it would play, but ya i guess your right.......... also that amp will go into protect before smoking when wired to low...... and asking electrical on a 600w amp, unless he is running on a big wheels toy he is fine

^^^^ this is true but also you will never see what you are wired at period, so he will be ok, now if he was asking to wire at .3 and count on imp rise to be a constant .9 then i would totally agree man

both are great drivers, both are great companys with good c/s flip a coin lol

idk about the amps but the woofers when used correctly arent bad at all......... and saying that somebodys car was loud tells us nothing, i can get "loud" off 100w and a single 8 lol need clamped numbers of the amp to see if it puts out rated, you can use shit products and install them right and have good luck with them and get "loud"

actually that amp will put out more at 1 ohm**** even though it is rated to be 600 across the board, you should be fine wiring at .7 after imp rise, although if amp goes into protect i would rewire to 2.8

err in the computer world thing get "old" in 3 mo lol they have the product line for the next like 4 years lined up lol, oooo noes a new bigger amp omg im so angry..... rofl

sry if that sounded bitchy just got done working 13 hours lol long days make you cranky lol

well he hasent said yet but if its a trunk car he can port into the cabin to eliminate trunk rattle and increase output a bit, but if he knows you then i guess you know best and he should have just asked you instead of posting it on a forum to see me and you argue....

well from the original post it sounds like he wants to try a 4th order so recommending a ported does not help to much lol, we are starting to clutter his thread though so if you want to talk just pm me lol, to the op mostly the sealed side is smaller than the ported and they are tuned 45-55hz

ok again i think i has a warmer sound and works with all music better, ported can get sloppy on some music depending on design..... 90% of how a woofer sounds is in the box design placement and the car its in, so what ever fits the bill better is what i would go with, he still hasent said what his goals are yets so this is kinda useless

well put lol was just using a site some would know, but in my experience 4th order's play all music well, they handle a double drum roll and then can turn around and play long bass line in rap well, and when built off the cars r/f profile will have a flatter response, now it is true that a quality ported can sound great but my self i prefer the warm sound of a 4th order

i ahve built many ported, 6th order, 4th order box's... 4th has the best transient response as long as the pass band is where you want it to be, for most 30-60 hz is what they have there woofers playing taken from diysubwoofers "The 4th order or sealed rear chamber bandpass system is basically a sealed enclosure system with the addition of an acoustic filter in front of the driver. The resulting system usually provides a lower cutoff frequency, the tradeoff being a larger enclosure. The enclosure can be reduced in size by using two drivers in an isobaric configuration. 4th order bandpass systems usually demonstrate better power handling characteristics than the other main systems considered here. Its transient response is second only to the sealed enclosure systems, making it a good choice for subwoofer applications. As all of the output of the 4th order bandpass system is via the port, the largest port diameter possible for the enclosure should be used in order to minimize port noises. The ports should be flared whenever possible, for the same reasons. The 4th order bandpass system rarely exhibits a perfect bandpass response - there is usually some out-of-band noise present in its output. A simple notch filter can be used to reduce this noise if it is audible. Alternatively, a low-pass filter can be used in series with the driver, but the in-band response of the system may also be affected if this approach is taken"

Nothing is ever right if you are looking at max ratings. Max ratings are a marketing ploy to get people to think they are getting tons of watts. In reality its a bunch of . So no, you wont get 4k rms for $189. Its not possible. You will get max, which is what they are advertising. lol ya i got a "1000w" pyramid amp that we clamped at 100 rms rofl

basicly when designed right they sound great and get loud while doing it, just needs to be done off the cars r/f profile and by somebody who knows what they are doing. i like them more than ported for daily seems to have a better response.
