    Masterofallbass's Build w/ XXV Maxxmus

    Your not the first one to say that. Wonder way? I was thinking for shear originality. You don't see 21's very often.

    Description Suggestion

    I agree with you 100%. The bitching and complaining was completely inappropriate. I wasn't defending those people in anyway, I was just theorizing on why those people were mad.

    Description Suggestion

    x3 but people should realize that nothing is forever and that Jacob is bound to change up his product lines. I think people were mad because he did it sooner than anyone could have expected, the 2000d hasn't been out very long.

    Tripleb45's Build Log

    Looks great so far, those mid 90s suburbans have retarded amounts of space to work with. It'll be nice to see 4 18s in proper airspace with a proper amount of port area.

    15's or 18's

    Do the job of what? 4 15s will probably do what you want them to do, especially on 8000 watts. If you're feeling ambitious and want 4 18s, build at least a 20 cu. ft. net box. with at least 320 sq. in. of port area.

    J-Roadtatts Honda Accord Build

    Yeah, I have a stock 130amp alternator and I'm not sure if I'll have to upgrade to power 2k rms.

    x2, that would work nicely.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    People should just be happy that Jacob runs a business as good as it is and updates his product lines as often as he does. He could easily keep the same product lines for significant amounts of time and instead he updates and release new products regularly. If jacob decided to release some nice components, Sundown would be a one stop shop for high quality car audio.

    I'd like too show some enclosure builds of mine

    the most obvious advantages are very low group-delay and a phase-shift favourable to normal ported enclosures while output is as good as a normal ported enclosure or better. a good flat response , and deadly accurate , disadvantages are a very steep roll-off, below tuning it very quickly has no powerhandling at all and the box is not by any means small. *edit* glad I could take you down memory lane Thumpper That makes sense, that clarifies what I read last night on folded horns.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    im going to need the whole cable. Male and female Its an 05' International Stories is that the previous driver of the bus was playing inappropriate music, so the bus ppl just yanked that cable. And guess what they lost it Hmm, maybe you can go to an international dealer and order the parts you need.

    Try out a couple of 21" Wardens.

    That's some incredible box building. What exactly is the advantage to the folded horn enclosure?

    Masterofallbass's Build w/ XXV Maxxmus

    Yes As of right now im working on some detals to my next system coming very soon Thinking 4 15'', 4 18'', or 3 18'' Fi BTL Fully Loaded. Thing is I need alot of space for them woofer with the amps and battartys. Amps could be 1 AQ20K, 3 AQ3500.1D, or 4 AQ3500.1D (Rated 4300rms @1 ohm 14.4v 1% THD.) Also Going with Powermaster d3100s and a 2d Dc power alt. Sick, stick with the 4 15s. A 12 cu. ft. box tuned low with 4 15s would slam pretty good, especially with 20k rms going to em.

    Datasheet I don't know if the pins on that connector are male or female, but these are the pins you will need. http://www.molex.com/molex/products/listview.jsp?query=&path=cHome%23%23-1%23%23-1~~ncCRIMPTERMINALS%23%230%23%23e&offset=0&autoNav=1&sType=z&filter=&fs=productname%3Amlx%2Ccategoryid%3ACRIMPTERMINALS&channel=Products&Lang=en-US A crimper like this one, they get a little pricey. http://search.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?Detail&name=WM9925-ND

    Customized Enclosure Plans now available

    This is pretty sweet.
  20. yeah and you can also add a switch to make it work whenever you want it or not make it legal on command That's a great idea, thought never even crossed my mind.
  21. Although grounding that wire is technically against the law and you can be ticketed for it. PS I don't want to be a Debbie downer, just wanted to throw that info out.

    J-Roadtatts Honda Accord Build

    THe F*cking cutout dim. FI gives you is BIG so the hole is little big. I think it will be fine with T-nuts. I got some cool dark gray stone looking textured paint for the port, Should look match the charchol carpet nicely! The fiberglass was pointless and I won't be doing anymore. I was under the wrong impression as to why people use it. Now I know. I am working on the battery box, 1/0 ga ran, spare tire mount fixed and then I can do the box. Time is a premium around here right now. Don't worry I am taking pictures. Awesome, what size alternator do you have? One of these days I wanna build a ported box for my SA-12s then maybe upgrade to DC lvl 4 12s and find a used SAZ-2000D. I'm gonna try and squeeze a D6500 under the hood of my car to power it all, maybe a D1200 in the back for added support.

    New Test Equipment

    So I was in the market for a new dmm and I stumbled across this kit on ebay. It's the Extech EX430 dmm and MA200 clamp. Got it all for less the 45 shipped, not a bad deal if you ask me.

    New Test Equipment

    So interesting feature on my new dmm. If you have the leads plugged in to measure voltage or resistance and you switch it to measure amperage without changing the lead, it emits a ton like a continuity tester until you put the lead in the correct location.
