DSS Tridents and Twisted Sounds S-10. Road to 166dBs

Recommended Posts

B2 amps are finicky and require a vary very low input voltage. Tbat problem is solved. It kept going into protect.

so 5volt from the 80prs is going to be too much... Hmm, I never would have guessed that. I'll keep that in mind.

Not exactly....

Input voltage is controlled by you volume knob.

Lower the volume, lower the voltage. I also don't know how true this is on a normal ohm load. I know at very low ohm loads, they can protect if the amp is seeing to high of voltage.

I still feel like there is more potential.

Suppose o should post my best so far before more changes are made. Little higher than I led on in previous posts.

Ethos doing work!

Clamping 4400 clean, or almost clean watts to each sub, no sweat.

 

NIIIIICE

 

Wish you were able to bring your DSS and Jon build up to Slam with the rest of us.

Not in the budget for me right now. I've spent a ton of money on this truck this year.

Jon and myself will be reppin at a local Usaci show this weekend though.

Had an awesome weekend. Starting with partying with THEE Bigjon. One of my best friends! Show on Saturday went well considering the issues surrounding the truck. Heat was a bitch! Seems everything was overheating but the Ethos.

6 runs back to back to back at full tilt. (4 burp runs, followed by 2 music runs) without any break between runs because the truck was overheating and blowing coolant out of any orifices available.

Good to see Jon take some wins in his classes too.

Big props to DSS for being able to take some major abuse when I seemed like everything else was failing.

Heck yeah!! great to hear! 

 

I know my amps got pretty hot to the hand, but the Ethos man, just like you said, keep on trucking!!!

 

Great weekend for DSS this weekend, that's for sure!

 

I wish I had pamphlets or something man, SO many people, first thing they ask is what subs, and only thing I can say is the name. But no one remembers names after a full weekend of a thousand demos from a thousand different vehicles haha.

WR run. Superstock outlaw 751-1500w class

This was backed up by a 160.2 db score

Also set the WR for legal. Sealed on dash, truck off. 751-1500 at like 154.9, backed up by a 155.1db score.

And a few pics he snapped of the truck in the lanes.

Hit my 60, Hit my 60 at a sanctioned show, broke a world record, broke another world record. Now what to do?

Demo truck?

 

That's gonna be my next thought I think. At least you get the big breasted opposite sex sticking their heads in your windows doing hairtricks. Make sure you keep in a stick in your ride to beat off the ugly ones though.

I'm not going to say it's the final color because I've already changed it like 10 times.

Here is the "current" color scheme.

Different blue on top, orange stripe, and gray bottom. Ran out of colors so I think I'll order the rest tonight and see how it goes.

I didn't really care for the black so I opted for this.

Second thought. Maybe I'll not do the stripe....

Why not go blue from the top of truck to the bottom of orange stripe and keep the bottom half gray? Just keep it a simple two-tone.
