    Buying a meter

    either tomorrow or sometime next week. The temp is suppose to be hot enough to let me work throughout the day. I'm gonna test it with just a box i got then when it starts to get warmer, i'm gonna build a test box and use it for the reason why i bought it, so i know what way i'm facing everything and exactly what setup i'm going with.

    Feeling better now

    when i try it out, i'll post info about it in that topic. That topic is going to be active for quite some time.

    Buying a meter

    Just got the meter in today, Yippie!! You guys gotta see their client list! Your mouth will drop.

    need opinion on setting gain

    you need o-scope. tuning by volts, i believe, only works on amps that output same power with varying impedance loads.

    Your favorite Q15 ported enclosure?

    try sub up port back. I did that in an LTD and it was loud as hell.

    Buying a meter

    i asked him that type of question. Whether the read out would change based on sea level, etc... He said meters, not just his but others such as the TL are not affected by sea level, etc... it is the stereo equipment that is affected and the reason for a change in Db output.

    15 BL vs 15 BTL

    I'm assuming the ratio would be the same. I stated this before on the 12" BTL that it appears the Fs of the sub affected it's output graph. Now, i may be totally wrong there but it is coincidental if i am wrong.

    GOT THE BL TODAY!!

    Yea, if you to a shop and have them service anything for you with equipment that they either do not sell or never heard of, it's like, Yes!, we get to go into attack mode!!! It's pointless to argue with them when they attempt to lie to you based on assumptions because if you try to get the better of them by letting them know the truth, they might turn you down on service period if they think all u r there for is to bash what they do. Now, i don't let shops install anything for me but i do know a shop around here in my area that will install ANYTHING in your car, they don't care. Their prices are high but i don't see what the point is of a company trying to turn you away from something you ALREADY OWN and came their just to install it!, hehe. It isnt like you are gonna go... you know what? ur right, shop!I'm just gonna throw this sub away i got 2 hrs ago and buy this sub that 5 million other people have around here because i know what it's potential is.... the whole world does.... Shops make money regardless, don't see the problem. The worst that SHOULD happen is they find out that these internet companies actually produce equipment that may outdo some or all of their product line and the best thing they can do is research them self. So, what i do is just install everything myself(i'm not lying), and when i need something small, like wire, instead of ordering it online sometimes, i'll just go to the shop wangin. If they ever ask what i got in there, i'll tell them with no intentions of them goin out and checkin it out because they usually wont. I tell them in a way that the customers get curious about. I already got the tint guy at one shop braggin about my car because the windows are almost break proof. Gotta keep it on the low or else everybody would know...

    15 BL vs 15 BTL

    well, if you look at the graph above, the Q just dominates the BTL in terms of power to output. And displacement... displacement is the amount of volume the sub takes up inside of the enclosure so you know how big to build the box GROSS. You would also need to build a port if going vented but ports are usually user chosen so custom per user so the displacement of the port is up to the user to find out.

    audioque

    hehe, that was a few yrs ago. I dont have that setup now, but still got the subs. (got another one, never ran both at same time.)

    15 BL vs 15 BTL

    i wouldnt go by that efficiency rating. Over on RoE, they had this 12" sub grand challenge that a LOT of 12" subs were tested using their proper recommended enclosures and tuning. Results were odd... The 12" BTL - The 12" Q - Explain that one. Below 40hz, the Q wangs with half power, excelling over the BTL.

    i'll have pics of my stereo setup, that'll be a lot better than deadening, hehe.

    audioque

    if you're lookin for loud, that is a great combo. It takes them about 2 weeks before the really low lows start to become louder. Very stiff suspensions. I own 2 15s from them. Look at the following vid below. What you see in this vid is the 15 that they replaced with the HDC3 line. The HDC3 line is suppose to be stronger than this 15 and is only being ran off of a 100A fuse, Enjoy- ShiZZZoN's Audioque Devastation

    Buying a meter

    i'm not into the technical debate here but you gotta remember that i am not going to be using this sensor with a DMM. I'm hooking it directly up to my oscilloscope that has a Db read out on it already. There's a reason why the o-scope came with one..., to read Dbs. He told me that is the best way to use the sensor since you don't have to look at the chart all the time to determine spl. Oh, and i am replying to say that according to feedbacks from buyers in the USA, i should be receiving my sensor in sometime next week. I won't be able to immediately start testing it because i am starting to sound deaden in the area where the box will be. If i get done it time then ya, i'll test ASAP.

    Were to get a High Output alternator

    mines an import and he told me that he doesnt know how to make one for mine because i have a hairpin stator... i do not know what that is but Iraggi told me he will make a 300A for me. He said it will do 145A at idle, that's good enough for me. A year ago, i talked to Iraggi bout makin an alt for my car and at the time, he was the only one who actually knew how to. There are others that have aftermarket alts made by companies beside Iraggi but Iraggi has the highest amperage alt for my car and for a lot of others too. I'm actually gonna drive down there and have him do it when i have it done since he's only 4 hrs away from me.
  18. i was reading the .5 wiring thread a while ago and somethin hit me that i'm curious about. The opti2000d by lanzar is the only amp they have that is 0.5ohm stable The Saz-1500d\3000d "used to" have 0.5 ohm warranty coverage until... well anyways. The opti2000d is 0.5 stable all day every day. Is this the case with SAZ amps as well or are they just lenient on below 1 ohm stability? The opti is the only class d amp i know of that is guaranteed to be stable at 0.5 ohms, so curious about this.

    3 SSA Icon wiring help?

    not safe. Your actual resistance would be 1.0 ohm exactly. Since i've seen impedance rise less than 200% of it's DCR, then it's possible that some notes will be under 2 ohms.

    i didnt take any pics... didnt really see the point. I drive a scion tc so i went through this massive thread over at scionlife.com about gutting the tc for sound deadening. Well, his car looks like mine, or is going to when i am completely done. Whenever i see that thread over there, my pics would be the same as his so i never even bothered.

    15 BL vs 15 BTL

    U can run and get full potential out of a sub underpowered if the box is larger than recommended. It will increase it's efficiency but lower power handling mechanically.

    15 BL vs 15 BTL

    that doesnt matter, that's not enough experience, what i... hehe, just messin with ya. Well thats great, the bls definitely. they'd be a lot closer to xmax then the btls, more potential for loud...

    OWW, broke my finger replying! hehe Powermaster - 865-688-5953
  24. well this was the last install scenario- my HU has 4v preouts. I had this amp that was suppose to go up to 8v... for some reason, on the o-scope, i ended up maxing out the gain and the wave STILL wasn't clipped yet! I was on 23\35 on the volume. I did not want to go any higher because it took forever to turn up. so i ended up boosting the bass a little so i could back the gain back down... Evidentally, when the boost starts sloping down in both directions, thats where some frequencies were not set equally. I am willing to bet that is what happened. So, i might not need an EQ for me at all. But, wont know until i get my new amps in. I got a new head unit and i can turn volume up easier. Still Alpine but $600 more of it, hehe

    i am not aware that they make alts for nissans?
