    M3a enough power for a SP4?

    Looking to upgrade from my BL, will a M3a on 0.5 ohm be enough for a SP4? Do you guys think a ZCON will be a better candidate? My box is 4.4 cubes 36hz

    M3a enough power for a SP4?

    For the guys who have had experience with these subs and power levels thanks for the replies. I ran my BL on 2ohms and the sub barely moved but after wiring it down to .5 ohm the sub woke up. Contemplating on switching out for a sub that can make use of the available power and take more abuse. Its weird though on WiniSD gain chart the SP4 rapes both ZCON and BL in my box and power levels but on the SPL chart the Zcon can put out higher decibels. I guess I will have to buy one and find out for myself. Cheers

    Wow, none of you guys answered my question its about SP4 not electrical.
  4. With the box dimensions of 38w x 20h x 14D, sub up port up, I got port inner dimensions of 4.25"W x 12.5"H x 28"D which will give you: 3.61ft3 net volume, port tune of 34.13hz, 53in2 of port area with 14.72in2 port are per foot. Vent mach is 22.647 m/s based on 2800watts.
  5. What kind of amp and what ohm load will you be running them at?

    breaking in subwoofers

    A couple of Decaf songs should do it.

    Loudness

    400 watts will be perfect for the DCON's just make sure you are not feeding them a clipped signal.

    Great sounding component speakers

    Best way is to go to your local shops and listen to them in person, everybody has a listening preference. I prefer the laid back sound of a silk dome tweeter but you might like that in your face sound of a titanium tweeter.

    That's a damn good video sir! And what kind of lense was you using here? Thanks, Nikon 50mm 1.8G and Tokina 11-16

    WTB 8" aeroport

    I've been wanting to start my box build but could not find anyone selling PVC 8" x 20" flare aeroports. I've contacted a guy named Derrick that sells them but have not responded for over a month. I don't want to make my own and would rather buy a kit, and I have already looked at the metal ones but they are pricey. Anybody know where to get them?

    In the crop bodies, in my opinion Nikon has better build and better focusing system but the Canon is king when it come to videography. To the OP the best way is to go to your local camera store and try different camera's out. I would also suggest trying out a Sony Alpha Nex-7 because it has the same sensor as the DSLR's, interchangeable lens but without the added weight. I usually shoot with a Tokina 11-16 lens and lugging it around gets tiresome due to weight.

    I shoot with a Nikon D7000 and absolutely love it and my friends shoot with Canon, actually 2 of them with a 7D. In my opinion if you like to shoot outdoors go with Nikon, Canon's shine in a studio with a tripod.

    Thanks for the pics, didn't realise how much beefier the motor on the zcon is compared to the icon.

    Need some help finding a nice new sub

    I've helped my buddy with his 350z and have found a single 10" in a proper ported enclosure would be ideal. A 12" will require a fairly decent size box and the 350z has a small trunk, with your budget and power I suggest going with a single 10" icon.

    Fi BL with fire dust cap *pics*

    Picked it up 2 days ago and its my first "big boy" sub, can't wait to hear it.

    Enough port area for BL 15"?

    The only reason I ask is I did the calculation for the vent mach and it is .132, 45.4 m/sec which seems really high. Original intention was to run my old amp, DD M2a but sold it and upgraded. If the BL is getting raped I will wire it down to 2 ohm's.

    Alternator

    Check out Tenney Alternators, he built me a 270amp for my 08 Sentra and it was dirt cheap with lifetime warranty
