    need help with building box for one sa-12

    Well it took me longer then i thought it would to build my box with all the free time i had. But it's done and came out looking good for my first vented box i ever built. Now the whole out side and inside the vent is in bed liner from a spray can don't mind the inside of the box the speaker will cover that but this is a pic of it right after i spray the bed liner now to let it dry. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/97/20111226171548.jpg
  2. Hi everyone i was wondering is the cadance zrs-7000d amp any good i remember back in the day the older one's were good because i had the z7000 the chrome one that put out 1800watts at 1ohm and i was not sure if the zrs are any good ?

    is it true when you first install a sub and run it for the first time it's best you should not play it at full power for a while.the reason i ask this is because i was never told this by anyone before you had to do this and i wanted to make sure since i been playing my sub at full power for like 4 hours total since i had it and i can tell the sub is not real stiff after playing it for a while ?

    So by turning my lpf on my amp all the way up and setting the lpf on the deck around 60-100Hz that will disable the lpf on the amp. If so what about my slope should i leave at 24db or go lower it can go down to 0db.

    Well i had a friend of my look up the info on my deck and the way the deck is setup is. The front and back speakers run off the high pass and the sub runs off low pass and that is why there no option to pick from since it is already set for you you just have the adjust the slope and the frequency. So for your question yes its 31Hz low pass with 24db slope

    To be honest i don't know don't give me a option for it all i know the deck has both but here something on eclipse website about my deck that talks about. Since i don't know much about crossovers my self maybe you can read this and tell me if i am or not. http://www.eclipse-web.com/us/download/manual/cd5030_en/audio/contents/5361.html#5460

    The deck has high pass and low bass when you enter the crossover option you get the options subwoofer front and back with the two options db and Hz but no option for picking high or low pass. And being a subwoofer option you figure it be set for lowpass abduction the front and back are high pass.

    here the link where i found out how to wire my sub to one ohm http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp?Q=1&I=22 the rms is what i am going off by what i search for online since i know the amp is not over 3000 watts at 1 ohm .i did some research and only came up with 1 post saying it only does 1200 watts at 1 ohm rms . not really i had a hard time understanding some of it since math was my weak class .

    well i have a eclipse cd 5030 cd player and i have the cross over set to 24db's and at 31hz and the amp i have is a plye plad3300d amp which puts out about 1200 watts at 1 ohm and i have the lpf set to 80 and my subsonic set to like 32 since my box turn to 35 and the gain on my amp is set to like 70%

    yeah the box is brand new i built it so it must be the wood and glue then if that's the case im gonna turn the gain down on the amp to be safe but how long does the box smell last for ?

    i see well don't subs put out a smell that smells like its burning when you first play them for the first time i had some people tell me they do just not sure if what i smell is that smell there talking about,

    well that is good to know then never really own brand new subs before they always been used but how long does this burning smell i keep smelling last before it goes away it seems to stay around lol.
