Hey SSA Family. Just checking in to give you guys an update to what I have been up to. Long story short, Valerie computer system got fried during the uninstallation of the previous build back in October. So as of right now, the silver explorer, Valerie, is taking a back seat for a while. The new build, is a 2003 ford excursion. For the 2017 season, I'll be using a street box, then walling it for 2018. Below is a video, let me know if you have any questions! The battery is an High Voltage bank, made of brand new lithium chemistry. Fully saturated voltage is 350v. I use 1 battery, 1 Taramps T 60k wired at .5 ohm on 6 SSA Evils.

I had such a great weekend! I'll post some pictures now. Here you can see how I managed to view my charging levels while in the house. There is no auto shut off, so once it hits 270, I turn it off. Here was my resting Voltage moments before going into the lane. This was after about 1 hour of low music volume during the drive-in. Here showing off the new Bass Knob. So this was the highest of the day, I very much babied it because of the new recones. Hoping I can reach my goal of 167 next month. And this is what I left with. I took home 1st place in MECA M5 and MECA RadX earning 2 TN State Championship Titles!

Hey Guys, Some of you already know who I am, and for those who don't, here is a quick summary. Basically, I run Taramps, and I have been using Lithium batteries from the good people over at Juice Box Battery. I also use 6 15" SSA Evils subs in a 4thbp that's 50 cuft Gross. This 12DCV system topped off at 162db with poor electrical being at fault for not betting that score since achieving it. Well for 2016, I am changing things up a bit, at least for what seems like the rest of the season. I have shipped my LiFePo4 battery back to JB for repair, and since have acquired 18 XS Power D3400s. I have also wired them in series to achieve 230 DCV Resting. The amplifier(s) that I will be using, (3) Taramps T60Ks. I also installed Dual Trans-coolers for my explorer (07).

Come to KY brother. I do believe I may try to come to Wake the Dead on Oct 29th I believe.

Well for reference: 6 Evil 15s 10 cuft sealed 35 cuft ported 900 sqin of port I play strong from 28hz to about 54hz. I can play 26hz and I squeeze my butt cheeks at 24hz (too low). My port was tuned at 48hz and my peak is around 49hz. The subs are inverted (for cooling). I want to test the other way, since now I have so much power. I have noticed in particular with my build, the two front subs, top and bottom nearest the port, have been receiving more excursion causing some issues with those subs. I've also had 1 sub in the back fail before as well. That was an etho tho, not an evil. Remember my build is subs facing side wall, exiting the front port. I hope these key points will aid you some with your enclosure design. If I was to change, I would do all subs and port forward. If I wanted a crap ton of power and subs, I would use a tool, such as MiniDSP.com to time align the subwoofers.

Maybe, but doesn't ring a bell. How far is Sonus from Nashville?

I kind of seen what went down in your other post, I do apologize for that. Message me on FB brother and I will try to help you achieve your goals with what you want to do with your system.

I'm in Nashville, never heard of them.

I will see you soon!

Some more updates from over the night! So far, we got the battery rank mounted and secured. We have the batteries in place. I removed all the pre-existing wire for the subs and batteries. We mounted and secured the amp rack support system. Things to do: We have to run and crimp 70 lugs for the subs, and 25 lugs for the top half of the battery bank. I'm using JY Power for the wiring, and SHCA for the terminals. Mount the amp board then mount the amp on top of that. And at that point, everything should be playing. I wish I could charge the bank up, I'm not sure what it's resting at, it hasn't been charged since Slamology.

Nashville. We have a huge show this weeknd around your parks actually.

Since the Mike Smiley Incident, me and a few locals have began the building process for Valerie for World Finals. The first thing we're attaching is the amp rack. Ultimately, we want it out of steel, but because of time, it may be out of wood as a temp setup. I've also scratched the idea of running 22 agm D3400s. I have now set my eye on Lithium HV. So for World Finals, my goal will remain 165 outlaw with 3 amps and 18 D3400s. Please keep in my mind, no matter how many 60ks I throw in there, based off my battery bank, I can only have 35-45kw. The below picture is the mock-up. The below image is for my future power plant. The below image is of the proposed bank from JY Power. The specs: 27 13.3v cells in series. 396dcv fully charged, 359dcv float.

Same here. No progress in 3 months, several missed shows, and no refund? smh.

Well, long story short, Mike Smiley (my builder) has had my vehicle since the last update which was built by Brandon Otis from Good Vibrations down in Florida. And there was nearly 0% work done since then. I have a lot of ahead of me to get this ready for world finals and point chasing, and I will keep everyone updated. Here is all the amps I have in my hopefully 167 build. Also to be added is 4 more D3400s.

good job seeing the little details! My vehicle is very unusual, which I kind of like it that way. My truck doesn't flex a lot, it doesn't blow air out the window 10 ft, but inside the cabin in the two front seats, a total roller coaster man. lo..

More positive energy coming at you guys!! After my first official competition of 2016, I am currently in MECAs Top 10 in the world not once, but twice! I am also, officially, the loudest SPL in MECA for all of Tennessee!! LET'S GOOOO!!!!

Can't wait!

Thanks brother!

I'm excited as well!

Hey Guys, I've been absent from the forums for a while now, and thought I'll check back in with everyone. Longs story, just been really busy, and this year has been one hell of a roller-coaster. I didn't make as many shows as I wanted this year, because of problems I kept running into, but next year should be a much different story! Anyways, enjoy some pictures, ask some questions, and stay loud folks! 4 subs, 4 amps, out of 6 subs, 6 amps at world finals. Took 4th and 5th place for my 2 classes . That pretty much brings everything up to date. Currently running; 1) DC Power 240hp 2) 6 Taramps HD10ks 3) 1 Juice Box Lithium 80ah 4) 6 15" SSA Evils Next year plans are; 1) 5 JS Ultimate Alts 300s 2) 6 SSA Evils 3) 6 Taramps HD15ks 4) 1 Juice Box Lithium 240ah I've been gathering partnerships lately with a few companies, that I'm proud to represent. vapeNscrape is one of them. They offer apparel, vaping products, as well as vinyl products. All with superb quality and great prices. I've recently partnered with SHTNONM who also offers apparel and decals. They are a company with the main objective is to represent the true enthusiast of the auto motive industry in all formats. There will be more partnerships to be made in teh future, and I wish to continue this hobby for the comings seasons. My ultimate goal now is to hit a 165 with my good ol' daily Valerie. Travel more shows, and build my name in the community.

Not much update lately guys, I do apologize. I have recently joined the great people over at SHTNONM.

update?
