    Amp imput

    Yea thats gonna be the plan after i recover from putting a new roof on my house. I wasnt dissappointed by the 35.1 got decent numbers from one sub and the enclosure i had. Never clamped the amp but did decent numbers after the new electrical. (146.4 @ 35hz 147.9 @ 35 hz drivers window down). New enclosure will get started this weekend and ill try to get some pics posted of the build as i go.

    Amp imput

    True. It doesnt show reliability. Real world use. Ect... i already have issues with the bass knob mine had. Amp worked great. As soon as the knob was attempted amp went into protect on the first click. Unhooked it and amp was fine again. Even contacted them and my response from them was "in our opinion the knobs are garbage". What?! Why send them with the product then. Yes they may put out the power, and i loved my 35.1 so im not trying to product bash. But nobody wants issues.

    JBL Crown A6000GTi Car Amplifier (~12,000w rms)

    One of the most shocking dyno runs ive ever watched. Wish i had the cash. Great price as well

    SSA ICON Series Amplifiers **ALL NEW!!**

    Man love the old school look on these. Guts look very stout as well. No doubt theyll be awesome. If i go casual in the wifes car i think i just might...
  7. Im in shock of the sheer size of this thing. The weight and magnet are almost comical. Really wish posting pics was easier.

    New sub is here! DC level 6 18!

    Right! The ultimate goal is a second sub and walling it off. Im clipping my amp to get the output from the sub. Going to a bigger amp should give me the output mine cant produce without forcing it to clip.

    New sub is here! DC level 6 18!

    Well talked to dc. Turned the gain down to about a quarter. No more smell but box is too big and way underpowered now. So gotta get at least a 7k to not have to work so hard to power the monster now. Thanks for the imput everyone. Havnt put much time on here lately due to my insane work hours now in the mill. New box is coming and looking at amp options now. It never ends.

    New sub is here! DC level 6 18!

    Very. It calls for 5 to 5.5 cubes. I turned the gain down to a quarter. It was at half. I checked the ohm load at the amp and its at 1 exactly not on of course. Ive had to break in 3 different subs for friends in the last few months and they got stinky after an hr or so. Nothing like this. Im hoping its the box too big. Havnt got a chance to get it out of the box to double check everything. I found these sweet reducers that allowed me to get both 8 gauge direct leads in and have a single 8 out. All heat shrunk and zip tied. Its only been in a day and a half. Im calling dc to be safe. Cost way too much not to.

    Ok sub is in but something doesnt seem right. Gets stinky very fast. Like within a minute. Checked the coils when it showed up. One was at a 1.7 and the other was 1.5. Was supposed to be dual 1. But i realize they sit higher on a new sub. Going to pull it and check everything. But cant do it alone too damn heavy. I know the box is too big but any suggestions? If anything else im calling dc tomorrow.

    Aero port idea

    Hello. New to the forum and wondering to get some opinions on building an aero port box for my sundown zv4 18. I have no experience with them. Like how many to use what diameter to use. Or how i get sq inches for port value. Its on a synergy 35.1 tuned to 32hz. I got a 143.7 last summer with no tuning and crap electrical but ive since tuned and electrical is up to par. I know its got more in it but id love to try an aero with ports i can just swap to daily and to get on the meter. Also because my box now is just massive. About 7 cubes net and built in 3 days

    Aero port idea

    Well i know the weak link now is in the front battery and my roof for sure. Theres zero sound deadaning in the jeep right now and im really trying to figure out what im gonna do with my roof. I really want to just glass it but that will be such a huge undertaking. And thank you jcarter. Im still grinning!

    Finally got on my buddys ssa meter last night since the rebuild. Sealed on the dash im getting a 146.4 drivers window down a 147.9. Both at 35hz. I unfortunatly forgot to put my rear seat down and last time it was worth .6 on the meter. Im pretty stoked! Got a little more wiring to do and a new sub and box to build but the rewire was good for 2.5 db
  17. Hello all. New sub is being built as we speak (went full carbon fiber cone and dustcap also). Dc suggests 5.5 cubes but im wondering if anyone else has had some experience with these things to give me the right direction to head. The current box is about 7.5 cubes net so a new box is in order. Will also be going up in power soon. Sub will be on a synergy 35.1 at .5 until i can get a bigger amp. It will be daily but also the occasional competition.

    Build house?

    Whats happening at the build house that everything has an eta of july i believe? A little dissapointed by this... are they that swamped?

    New sub to be ordered this week!

    Well its ordered. None of the above tho. Went with a dc level 6 m4 18 full carbon fiber cone and dustcap upgrade. Anxious to see what a large chunk of cash just bought me for one sub...
  20. Ok heres whats on the table. Its either going to be a new FI sp4v2 18 or the beloved SSA evil 18. Sub would be dual 1 for coils. Ran on a synergy 35.1 at half ohm in a box thats 7.5 cubes tuned to 32hz. It is ran daily. Its played daily. Rarely sees full tilt unless its for demos. But im also going to start entering all the competitions i can locally and possibly slamology this year. Opinions what would net me a higher spl score between the two? If any difference at all. Sub one way or another will get ordered wednsday night so help a brother out!

    Old school scores?

    Just wondered if anyone else has gotten any sweet old school amps, subs ect lately. I scored another kicker xs100 yesterday! (Third one ive owned) for a whopping $100. It still has all the terminal screws, couldnt believe it. Unfortunatly not a first gen like my other two were but i want to post pics and i cant! Aaarggghhh!
