    Just wanted to say my son Michael and I have officially joined the team! Thank you guys for letting us be a part of your family! Looking forward to finals even more now Dave
  3. i got the sub reconed today andf reinstalled in the wall. I paid for the registration of my two classes ill be competing in at finals. I may enter a third if things are going well. i have a trailer at my shop ready to roll. i borrowed my employees Ford to tow the Camaro up there since it has alot lower miles than my truck. Ill start testing with my termlab tomorrow.
  4. Hi I bought an Incriminator Audio I 10" about a month ago from SSA as a temporary sub while my two SSA Icon 15" subs were being built and WOW. For a little 300rms 10" this thing pounds, have about .75-1" of roof flex in my Dakota Crew Cab. Built a box I designed which is around 1.25 cubic feet net tuned to around 31hz. I've been beating the crap out of this thing with decaf songs, Young Jeezy etc and it sounds awesome, and is taking the abuse of around 400rms. Would definitely recommend this for a budget friendly sub. Bass is tight but still gets really low and loud. Hopefully this will help someone who's looking at them.
  5. For the most part, I use a pencil, paper and calculator. I know I can trust my own calculations.
  6. Nice job!! I like seeing the SP4's workin.
  7. What sort of off roading do you do?
  8. No matter how you set everything up you can smoke those subs with those amps(s). I would become firmiliar with what it sounds, feels and smells like to burn up your subs... Honestly, any gain setting tutorial will cause more harm than good for many people due to false security you'll have. This isn't an opinion, it is just a fact of the way electronics work...
  9. i loved the top gear episode where they proved that an M5 gets better fuel mileage then a prius
  10. I'm pretty excited that my Silverado on 35's with 4.56 gears can get 16 on the highway.
  11. 40s are too big IMO.38s are huge too i think you will agree once a new set are installed
  12. Both are used. Both are in great condition. $100 Shipped for the 12" and $120 shipped for the 15" UPS Ground.

    It's a demanding time for subs/recones. Finals are here and everyone is getting geared up so it may take a little longer than normal even.

  15. Treir opening carls Jr in Houston now. Happy about that.
  16. don't forget to press "select, start" after that sequence now it has me thinking, does anybody remember that cheat code? up, Down, up, down, L, R, L, R, a, b, a, b, select, start? I posted it earlier this morning.
  17. love the vid at 1:44
  18. Kevin did send him to another forum to some box designers. I guess between the manufacturer and the designer they couldn't come up with a recommendation?
  19. A little bit of FOURPLAY! And then the THREESOME!
  20. Just the fact it's labeled a PA speaker does not inherently mean it has better "range" than a standard 8" driver. And the main issue with an 8" isn't the genre of speaker it's grouped in with, but rather an inescapable fact of physics known as beaming. As you start approaching frequencies where the wavelength of the sound wave is equal to or less than the diameter the driver, it's off-axis response is going to decrease in amplitude as you increase frequency. Meaning, the off-axis response of an 8" driver is going to be absolutely terrible at the ~4khz needed to mate with a supertweeter. And this is absolutely regardless of speaker; it's directly related to diameter. Even for a 6.5" speaker 4khz is going to be far less than ideal. If we assume the 6.5" speaker has a 5.5" radiating diameter, then the driver is going to begin beaming around 2400hz. If an 8" speaker has a 7" radiating diameter, then it's going to begin beaming around 1900hz.
  21. went too a show this past weekend. burped from 24-31hz and all numbers were over 150 150.8 @ 28hz was my peak im really happy with how this wall came out
  22. I will be coming for sure now. I'm pre registering now. I reconed my sub tonight. I will be doing some testing tomorrow.
  23. Watching this week's No Reservations; they're in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy. Pure, unadulterated food porn that has me licking my TV set. Damn you again, Bourdain.
  24. My bad, I did stop at the section that said the US voted against the arms treaty. In fairness, you also have to consider how Mitt's policies would have affected things over the same conditions. For example (off the top of my head), under Mitt GM would have went belly up. Under Obama, they survived the decline and IIRC actually did pretty well this year. Again, I'll simply point out that disliking how Obama has handled things doesn't inherently make Mitt a better option. Just because Obama hasn't been stellar doesn't mean Mitt would have been or will be better. Of course, if your a Republican then you're going to argue that it will be better, if you're a Democrat you're going to argue that it'll be worse. I tend to focus as much or more on public policy issues as I do economic. That's the main reason I can't envision supporting Romney. On top of everything else; he's Mormon. Being an atheist I'm obviously not a fan of religion, but IMO it takes a special sort of crazy to believe in Mormonism. And I generally disagree with the public policy decisions Rep's make as a result of their faith to start with, much less having an excessively crazy variety of Rep in office.
  25. What do you mean "IF"? He will win. I hope so. Not saying Obama has been great, but Mitt scares me. Not liking Obama doesn't inherently make Mitt a better option. It's the lesser of the 2 evils....but then again, that's all politics is. If either side were "right", we wouldn't need to have debates Feel free to look at whatever source you would like to. It is common knowledge that the UN resolution is being considered and it is desired by the Obama administration. I just clicked on the first link. I'm confused. You say Obama desires an Arms Treaty, then post 2 links that show the US voted against the treaty ?
  26. WE just need to get rid of the politicians and retake the country. It's no longer for or by the people.

    probley going with the gcons cause i already have a zcon in my other car and the gcons will be easyer to slowley get them like one at a time, just wanting to build a cazy daily driver
  28. Grass fed Filet and salmon with Japanese sweet potatoes... Thanks for the dinner inspiration lol
  29. I should of kept my civic, we said I should of got a trailer for it, could of pulled it behind the cutlass. Awesome build, toward the end, I thought, "he should get a new ride now"! Bet I'm not the only one:) Keep it coming bro! Chop
  30. I loved my Icon 15 ! Good choice IMO Why did you make that choice ? And not X or Zcon ?!!! I'm curious, I know.
  31. forgot the picture of the battery and amp rack. i need 2 more 3100 to fill in the space
  32. i check everyday to see if there is any sign of distress as soon as I see any it will come out. I appreciate the concern.
  33. I don't want people to read this and think oh zcons can't take the power. I don't think is had much to do with power. Heres the coil I pulled from the same sub when I pulled it. This is after many demos and nearly 5k clamped burps.. Look as this coil. Looks brand new.
  34. mount your speakers to the outside of your vehicle. That's the easiest and best way to be heard from a long way away outside of the vehicle.
  35. I like to hit it hard too. yea i feel u i like the look on ppl faces wen i pull up.. or wen they ridden in the car with me. but i like competitions He was talking about women. De de de de de yea i was lost my fault on that You sure are!
  36. PM wasn't any better than the thread. :(
  37. M5 would be my first choice for helping the OP. He doesnt need much info either and can hook this guy up with a hella hard hitting system. great advice!
  38. There's member here called //m5 and he's really big into spl stuff, you should send him a pm.
  39. yep ... upgrade needed
  40. Oh and to the OP, if you don't want your thread derailed to salmon talk then I suggest you put some more effort into your posts.
  41. I've never tried it either. You gotta try it.
