the two rectangular shiny slugs are the NEO part of the motor the metal with heat sink fins is aluminum. I have a N2 and the motor force on that thing is ridiculous. Most Neo motors you see are wayyyy over saturated with magnetic flux. There is a point where motor force becomes too much for the sub.If your looking for a N2 i may sell mine.

Yeah i also have the stinger volt meter and the numbers will move with very little bass. It is extremely apparent on leds.. I wonder why leds are more prone than other lights?? it must have to do at the switch frequency of the led??

Do any of you notice how if you look at rims on a car rolling down that street while playing a song with a high frequency that you can actually see the individual spokes almost like its slowed down. Its a trippy effect. Sometimes people rims will also look like there jumping up and down on some bass notes. I also get this similar effect when i play a 50 hz and up frequency while looking at led lights ( xmas lights, BMW spoiler Brake lights) these lights also move to the bass..It is an awesome effect very entertaining! I was wondering what is causing this and does anyone else experience this?? I think it has something to do with our eyes moving at the same frequency as which the lights are flickering... This is just a theory as i'm not sure why it happens??

I beleve it is simply shaking my vision too.. OK next time your driving play a song with a high frequency and look at peoples rims as they drive by. Hopefully you will see what i see. Instead of seeing a blurr when you look at rims driving by, you can see the spoke of the rim and threw the rim. It is very odd. I have had a system in my vehicle for 5 years and have never seen this effect. Also the system i currently have is not very loud, two mismatched 10s in a good box on proper power but the effect still happens. You don't need much bass just the right frequency and rpm of the rim. Its not the weed cause i would be able to see this all the time only happens on songs with high frequency bass in them..

I notice in my vehicle with my enclosure in the truck that with my front wondows down it helps out the lows kills the high hz and does get louder. But if i put my back windows down my low lows get considerably louder, while i lose response 45 hz and up.

It's all good. Already sent an email and they'll let me know when it's ready and I can pick it up. Already refunded my shipping too You should come to a bass ballin comp after you get that installed, its always nice to meet fellow bass heads in Vegas! Sounds good. I've been meaning to go to some comps just to see what I meter but I always forget lol. When is the next comp? I want to get my 15" SSD metered and then see the difference when I get the SP4 installed! Currently have the Rubicon 2500 hooked up to the SSD and it's a bit louder now lol. i Would like to hear your system, i have a btl 15 N2 in a trunk and i hit 141.9 on music. i would like to see what that ssd could hit. Im not sure when the next one is just check the website bassballin.com for upcoming shows.

ahhhhhaha good old krytonightwhite, him and his silly setups!

That looks like a pretty good design. It should slam the lows, 30 hz is a great tuning. I would build it, just throw some bracing in there or you'll have box flex.

I don't think the problem is from not enough port area.. It is most likely from not flaring the ends of the PVC for the port..

Your crossover should be set at about 80hz, If it is turned all the way down you wont get much output.

ME!

I would go with a ported box in 1.6- 2.0 cubes tuned to 33 hz with 25-30 sq inches of port.. You need to post the max dimensions of the vehicle your going to be putting this box in, to get more help

Thanks, Your right i need to upgrade my electrical more.. soon enough. I like surprises!! The false floor is attached the the truck using some bolts, it is secured pretty good. Yes, i attached the enclosure to the false floor and it does not move.

Hi, This will be the first build log I have ever made. Been on the forum for years and have gathered a lot of my knowledge and expertise from this forum. I have been working on audio system for about 4 years now, and have had many different setups in my Saturn with each just getting louder and better. It has been a journey. This is my current system and my latest build i may also throw some build pics in from my last system. ENJOY AND COMMENT!

Do you make any alternators for 2004 Saturn ions, 2.2 eco-tech motor?

Im you want less boom just tune higher.. In your situation i would go with aero ports. Make it about 4 Cu ft to 4.5 tune to 35- 37 hz with about 10-12 square inches of port per cube of enclosure and you willl have a great sounding flat punchy enclosure... Use torres calculator to make your box.

Thanks man. I did i gathered all the knowledge i could, sucks i got banned from SMD tho.... Yeah the sub is awesome couldn't ask for more out of a sub-woofer. Responsive, flat, clean, andddd LOUD n' LOW. The false floor was a great idea makes everything easier. Now to work on the front and back stage, Yeah the HX'2 were very loud but only on the LOWss even in a PWK. I put the hx'2 in about 4 differnt boxes and they just wernt as flat as this woofer or nearly as clean. Now Im waitng on my HX'2 to finished getting recone by Fi with there soft parts.. Should improve them. I had the AQ on the Hx'2s and had the big 3 and batt so most likely it is the sub..

That is all I am after T-DOG! A little acceptance. I don't want everyone else to stop doin how they do and do what I do, cuz then I'd just be like everyone else. I just want to be a bit different, mix it up a little, keep a little diversity! Thank you! Thos 1st pics didnt turn out, went and took 2 more after pics, much better! Made 2 vids of HULK too, 1 short 1 long. nothing wrong with that! check out my videos and build log.

I think he is trying to profit of someones ignorance..

You are one crazy MO FO!!! I have to admire your originality..

Both. If overheated or overcharged, Li-ion batteries may suffer thermal runaway and cell rupture.[58] In extreme cases this can lead to combustion. Deep discharge may short-circuit the cell, in which case recharging would be unsafe. -Typically, lithium-ion cells are charged with 4.2 ± 0.05 V/cell, except for military long-life cells where 3.92 V is used for extending battery life. Most protection circuits cut off if either 4.3 V or 90 °C is reached. If the voltage drops below 2.50 V per cell, the battery protection circuit may also render it unchargeable with regular charging equipment.

These are not meant to be used in car audio only in racing... as of yet. They are too expensive and require a very specific charge.
