DSS Tridents and Twisted Sounds S-10. Road to 166dBs

Recommended Posts

What's considered loud?

Easy to get loud if your goal is lesser than mine.

Very true, what org are you competing in?

It's just funny that because a few guys have done 63s in these trucks (top guys, I might add) that everyone expects all these truck to do the same. It took them years to get where they are.

I compete in usaci. Outlaw. But that's all relative. I know 4 maybe 5 guys doing 63s on more power than me, yet every little douche that sees my build on Facebook tells me it better do a 64 or it's a waste. Can't really compare me to the guys that have held the record in this class for years and years. Those are the best of the best.

Julian, didn't mean to direct that to you. I know you meant no harm. Just frustrated. Since you made the comment, I figured I would address it.

Fact remains:

Truck I've never used

caps, which I've never used

subwoofers, that are still new and mostly untested in spl

Amps that are not even for sale yet and untested...

I have many things against me.

Is it legal to swap drivers through out the year?  When will finals be held?

drivers as in speakers? That's all legal. You can change any and all things, when and where you like.

Not sure on date yet since it's not posted. Usually Oct or Nov.

The Tridents will be in September.  This truck would be a good test bed to verify specifications.

Maybe I am loosing it...but why are you using 3/0 and 2/0, and how are you fitting it into the 1/0 inputs?  (I am assuming to cut the excess dianeter til it fits?)  Very clean looking wiring!

I didn't think anyone would notice. I was a hair short on the 3/0 and I still had a little 2/0 in the garage. As long as both amps have it, it shouldn't matter. It's only one input on each amp. All other wiring in the truck is also 3/0.

It fits pretty snug in the amps.
