  1. Sadly still having this issues... MechMan offered to have me send it out for an adjustment but I've already the mechanic twice for an alternator swap $70 x 2 = $140 plus it cost me $20+ to ship it.... Unfortunately lost my employment and couldn't really afford to have another swap done or be without my car while I hustle to do work on the road.... I waste ALOT more gas than I ever did before because I have to keep my foot on the accelerator to keep my car from dipping below 12v when idling or at a red light..... Listening to music with the car off yields more voltage .... Sadly I think they should've offered to refund some money so I could send it out or send me a freaking label as I know that CAN be done... /rant.... It works when driving or gassing the car .... FML

    Another bloody calculator

    Perhaps I should add an excerpt on vent mach. For now I'll just say that vent mach / port speed is the speed at which air is being excited in the port. If it's too high it causes port noise, and port compression. The more port area you have, the lower the port speed will be--generally (I say generally because changing the tuning frequency also effects this speed). What affects vent mach? port area, tuning, and a driver's ability to displace air. It's calculated from a driver's t/s specs, power, tuning, and port area. So port area isn't dependent on enclosure volume, sorry 12-16 rule. I've used your ports galore and figured a nice box for my Xcon but I think it's too big for me.... At least to get it within the tuning and port area.... not sure but that one I've been using seems to be off in comparison to Torres when you look at slot port length.. Not sure but it's not the same as Torres
  6. That way, I have 0 voltage loss, more power. you also have a bit overkill in the selection of ladies available to you... just sayin'
  7. whatever fits... 8ga is a tough one to get in subwoofer terminals so I'd say stick with 10+

    cool...I liked your ports galore link too... FYI.... not all that sure about vent mach and it's relation to tuning/port area .... or really how it affects sound.... just yet

  20. D1ck! Lmao. I think we all know what sick means. But tbh, beat means shit/shot/garbage/fckd/ etc... example: Guy #1: "Ayo, check shorty over there" Guy #2: "man, that b1tch is beat, she ain't even got a ass"

    Sundown : Reference SQ Component Set

    They do look amazing! Separate please. :-)
  22. I've been looking for specs myself and came across this old post, which is really disturbing. "optimum performance" for what? power handling? SPL? LFE? SQ? One optimum box size for say a civic isn't going to be as optimum as one for a suburban. An optimum box for a SPL competitor is totally different than an optimum box for a SQ competitor. There are ranges for a reason... You use what works for you... And obviously you can tweak the specs a bit to fit your needs... It's all about testing really...
  23. Damn I didnt make the list. You're under the few others category
