i went into battle yesterday with 2x 1500d Sundown amps Strapped

using 2x Batcap 800 near the amps

1x optima yellow up front. stock 130 amp alt...

batterys at rest was 12.8v / with alt running 14.v

when the amps hitt dropped to 13.6v

gain was 1/2 --- bass boost 1/4 ---

note was 52Hz ? down from last competitions 55Hz

did a 151.5db 1st run

153.3db second run

153.4db last run ... :domoslay:

now iv got to get my bigg batterys to quit leaking and i can really see what these bad boys will do with 14.97v

that's great to hear! So are you going to settle down with some Sundown amps for awhile now? I've seen you go through a couple of different amps on SPLBassx.

i ran the sundown amps with the lowist voltage possable for a reason...

wanted to test the amps to see if they were going to withstand all the Hype...

compaired to last competition where i ran the Ia 40.1 with a Kenetik 2400 battery did a 154.6db

this competition 2x sundown 1500d with 2x Batcap 800 and a stock charging system did 153.4db

note changed from 55Hz down 3 too 52Hz with the temp & humiddity

so i lost 1.2db going to the 12v setup :slayer:

i have 2 monster batterys that come in @ 14.97v @ rest ... i can cook em up too 19v :domoslay:

yea i am impressed with the SD Amps and plan on getting bigger asap

Bigg Props to Jacob...

did i forget to mention that @ 0.4ohm strapped these never even got warm

Hey Brian, it's Geoff... Nice setup man, I'm happy for you. Can't wait to get this all hooked up in my car. Hope your doing well and all. I'll be ready here soon to go to competitions with you and Carlo.

Did you want that 15" box I have? Gimme a call and let me know so I don't sell it. I'll take 45 bucks on it.

Hope I can achieve half of the results you got. Talk to ya later man and take care, lemme know if you want that box.

Because you're not getting any extra useful power, all you're doing is sending the amps into clipping and raising the possibility of toasting drivers.

What are you looking to do with the processor?

EQing? Time alignment? Crossovers?

The Kove Aphex Processor is fine in your setup, that piece is great as it is built to restore lost fq's during recording and mastering.

Hell i dont know :)

i got it @ a Police auction where they sell off siezed propertiy, from drug raids,,, & well i know of Aphex from playing Bass Guitar, it is a rack mount for restoring signal loss... or correcting the sign wave... whatever... :)

i could not pass up the thing as i bidd 5.oo dollars and won...

i can time aline the Alpine 9887.

i want a Killer Spl setup but when NOT doing SPL i like the sound to be as SQ as possable for an SPL ride...

i have a boxx for Street bass 36Hz--- and other boxxs for SPL 54Hz
