  1. I dont know if I have talked to you since after the wedding, congrats and thanks for the invitation brother, I just already had obligations to another buddies wedding for that same day. I hope you guys have a very happy and log life together. Me and dana might get married one day, but we have been happily unmarried for 7.75 years and still kicking. Why change a good thing? :)


  2. If anyone is in tampa for world finals, come by and check out the van. Doing a little revamp on it for world finals.

    8-AA Havoc 15's (tuned to 32 hz)

    4-Kicker kx2500.1's

    4-Kicker kx850.4's

    16-AA Poly mids

    16-Kicker KS25 tweets

    I have alot of work to do, not sure if I will have time to post pics. Only have 2.5 weeks, wish me luck!


  3. I am really close friends with Tommy, Pipo(hell I built his truck 3 times), Frankie, Lil John, Step, ect, but tommy hasnt done a 160 yet in bassrace, no one in FL has YET, and yet being the key word, I can almost guarantee someone from FL will do it at world finals. There have been only 2 ppl in the world that have bassraced, at a show, over a 160, that is bob perillo with his ss 5+ van, and an extreme car from Finland I believe.


  4. We pulled the XXX 15's out of my dad's explorer, swapped to Q15's with BP Power, and I first he didnt like the Q's, but then once they broke in(took a few weeks), he loved the Q's, louder and had better overall sq to him than the XXX's. Each one has a modded MTX 1501d.

    With that much power though, and single sub, you would definately have to do a fully loaded BTL for daily. The BTL's get

  6. hey shawn,welcome back man,now how is that bass racer going.the van looks great.

    I havent had time to work on it, It is exactly the same as the last set of shows I went to: Fully loaded BTL's, Kicker 2500's, I still have to do the trim panels around the box, strengthen and brace the roof, strengthen the doors, build the fiberglass door panels, get my powermaster alts installed, make an alt bracket(sucks to be on the stock alternator) ect ect. There is still a ton of work to do on it.

    Also brother, congrats on the win at NSPL, you made us proud, I know there is more in the van, we just have to tap into it! ;)


  7. I will be starting on the doors for the van in the next couple weeks guys, I will take detailed pics. 8 Carbon Fiber Poly Mids and 8 "Custom" Tweets per door. Running off 6 Kicker 850.4's, actively of course. Now I just hope it keeps up slightly with the subs. (for those that dont know, I have 8 Fully Loaded BTL's and 8 Kicker 2500.1's)

    Are these the "new" poly mids or the older model? I would kill to get my hands on eight of them for a HT surround setup.

    These are older models that I have had sitting here. I was using the Kicker RS comps, like when you saw the van in Daytona, Lucas, and they sounded real nice, but just couldnt keep up, especially when the doors were shut, and I was making a bassrace run, they were ok when the doors were open for demo's. At that time I was also running 4 Kicker 350.2's, now stepping up in power to the 3 kicker 850.4's. The mids and tweets will love the new found power


  8. Hey guys and gals,

    I have been slammed at work with all our new server upgrades and 32 new users that we hired, and I am the only network admin for a company with 55 inhouse users, 2 servers, and 21 remote users(<---- the worse part, remote users). I have gone through all my email and Im's, if you have sent either to me, and it hasnt been responded to, please resend and they will be done promtly.

    Thanks

    Shawn


  9. Hey guys, I have been super slammed with my career, the past month and I love it. Im finally in a career, someowhere I plan to stay til I retire. If anyone has sent me an email or PM, Im prettys sure I got them all taken care of(over 500 between emails and pm), but if I hadnt please resend, and I will take care of it pronto.

    Thanks and sorry about any delays,

    Shawn

  11. on the SSD's the SSD's will sound good with a 500/1 but can definately take much more power. You cant add flatwind and copper, and honestly with the power I wouldnt do either coil, I would just get the standard SSD's, unless at some point you plan on adding much more power. The Copper coil option with more power will give you a little bit better SQ than the standard or flatwind. The only reason to use the flatwind would be in applications for over 800 watts RMS per subwoofer.

    I hope this helps brother, if you have anymore questions, you can either post here, or email me at shawn@ficaraudio.com

    Thanks
