I've been working with a friend on this project for a bit of time. It's an option to the termlab. It's not the russian meter, it's our own design. So far we have managed : Lower noise floor than the termlab (and implicitly lower than the russian one), without tricks from the software. VERY close measurements to the termlab. When applying exactly the same pressure on both the TL and this meter differences are very small. Small package At this moment the meter is not comercial. So please don't ask for prices or dates when it will be available Clips versus termlab :

Maltodextrin? 60 grams and 30 grams of protein from nectar. (should be a scoop and a half) lol, have to go look. I just ordered whatever you linked Awesome I think I linked dextrose. Either way start with 60 grams sugar and 30 grams of protein. 2:1 carb to protein. See how it feels. You're a pretty in touch with your body kinda guy. From there you can fine tune the ratio or amounts. You're so tall I wouldn't be shocked if you could slam more with no problems. If you have questions ask away, I'll do all I can to help you troubleshoot or fine tune. You will see some big results just from adding this though. And of course you know to stay hydrated. One word of advice is that these fast digesting sugars and proteins will make your body kick into over drive, so you may be ravenous 30 min after you're done pedaling and have slammed the drink. Avoid Fatty food for an hour as it will slow down your bodies over drive.

I am pulling a 143 at 36hz in a single cab dodge ram with an Icon. I am sure you can reach the 140's. Keep testing as stated above. Get it metered and take some pics

Did I miss something? What truck are you working on? Sweet. How much lift? what year? Any other cool specs? 2002 Chevy Silverado Z71 6" RCD lift, with traction bars Volant Intake, OBX LT Headers (Cats replaced with resonators), 93 Octane Tune from Nelson Performance, E-fans Optima Red Top, Big 3 done all 0 gauge, SAX 100.4C Powering SEAS Prestige ER18RNX mids and SEAS Preastige 27TDFC Tweeters and a SAZ-1000D Powering a 12" SSA Icon in 2.4 cu ft. ported to 33Hz Multiple layers of Raamatt everywhere. Door panels fiberglassed to create sealed environmet, layers of spectrum in the door, ensolite, etc...

There is absolutely nothing wrong with running 2 different amps on one sub. Additionally, matching the amps is trivial. It will not hurt the sub in any way if the signals are completely different. You will just have more loss the less they are matched in phase (shouldn't be an issue with 2 identical amps set the same). The only reason you match the level is so that each amp is running out of steam at the same time, that way one amp isn't already taxed while the other is at say 50%. In the voicecoil, no matter how you wire it, if the signals are in phase they are additive, if they are different levels, they are still additive. If they are out of phase they begin to cancel. This doesn't really hurt anything. The coil doesn "work against itself", instead the magnetic field weakened, or not built.... It doesn't overheat anything as long as you don't exceed the thermal ratings of the coil. There are literally millions of passive DVC home audio subwoofers around the world that have been operating on combined stereo signals (huge phase and level differentials) for decades without any issues.... As they should....

Go with the revision but take out the middle divider and keep the (2) 45 degree pieces. Better to run a common chamber as you gain max port area.

Couple issues here...1) box is too big, stay within the guidelines that we say to stay within...2) Subsonic filter on that amplifier if you turned it on will still cause you issues unless your box is tuned to 27Hz. The subsonic filter if it is on is set at 25Hz...at 12dB/octave. Which is completely useless...you must have an amp that has an adjustable subsonic filter that is set 2-3Hz below the port tuning frequency..otherwise that's what happens. Boils down to over excursion, the surround snaps and the spiders pop like potato chips. It's like taking a brand new car off of the dealership lot..hopping on the interstate with the cruise control on and driving it straight into a wall...the dealership isn't going to warranty it because you drove it into the wall . Speakers are stupid, they do exactly what you tell them to do. You can fix it with a recone..but if you don't get an external adjustable subsonic filter or a different amplifier you'll do it again in a couple weeks time. I've seen it happen many times..and it's always the exact same issue , you also need to shrink your box as well. I've ran in excess of 2000 watts per sub with music and never had an issue...this goes to show if you do not have things set up properly you will have nothing but problems. Hope this helps.

Will do!! Thanks for the feedback on the post! lol
