  1. Totally. Bump respectfully. Now if you drive up to your friends house and he lives in the middle of no where and you want to demo your new setup for him before he gets outside, that might be different...
  2. Of course it's user error... I'm an idiot when it comes to 'puters... lol Thank you though Julian, what tones are offered in this itunes deal? Again I pose the question; what do I need to set my gain and my filters correctly? What tones? Thanks everyone
  3. How many dead mobsters can you fit in that trunk? I believe three is recommended volume... lol How big is your port going to be? What will its volume be?
  4. I want to set up my new, (refurbished actually but it's new to me) Sundown SAZ-1000D right, so I need some legit test tones. First question: What tones do I need? I know I'm looking for a 50Hz tone to set the gain, but is that a "50Hz sine wave" or "50Hz mono-tone"? I've seen both, so I'm confused. Square waves? Sine waves? I have a very loose grasp on these things, but I think that a square wave=clipping and a sine wave shows the maximum gain setting before clipping... I'm so confused... What other tones do I need, if any? Second question: On that pinned thread on how to set your gains under amp/head units main section, it gives two links for tones to download, and how to use them. However, one link, (at least when I tried, I could just be a retard), did not work and the other is for setting computer speakers, (it just had quicktime links and I couldn't seem to decipher how to download them). I know shizzzon has a link for tones, but when I downloaded some of those, I couldn't get them on media player and onto a CD. Tried local audio shop and even Best Buy but no one around me sells tone CDs. Where can I get me some tones? For setup info, please check signature.
  5. There was a thread in the Fi section about a guys new 15" BL. His amp took a poo though, and although it was not this amp, someone thought it was, and had negative things to say about the amp, but I have heard nothing bad about the subs. Perhaps the problem with the amp was a rare occurrence, so check the thread out: da link
  6. Wow, this thread is like Frankenstein. The good doctor sets out with good intentions and creates a monsters... But this monster does not use reanimated tissue to tear people apart, it uses freakishly powerful bass!!! Awesome build
  7. Sounds awesome! My buddy has a 18" Q in a Jeep but it doesnt compare to my 2 18s (obviously haha) but.... it bangs the lows, but if it was in a bigger box i can only imagine the difference... I guess I can heard from inside my house to our local gas station (which is about 1/4 mile away) so I guess I cant complain! Ive also have drove by the college in town, and I got a call from my other buddy asking if i just drove by because I was shaking the windows... Sweet...
  8. .2 -.6 sealed and .9 - 1.5 ported for one 10 Is that what the OP wanted to know, cause phi said that before.
  9. This is really REALLY good work IMO. Seriously, this is awesome; great job! Can't wait to see the xcons go in...
  10. So, how's she sound so far?
  11. Always fuse. If you can't, find someway to! I couldn't find a decent fuse holder, so I got a trolling motor circuit breaker from my dad. Just as good as a fuse, except everytime the circuit breaks, you just shut the car off and baboom; good to go! Don't have to replace fuses...
  12. So far as I can tell, bass boost makes notes around a certain frequency, (40Hz to 60Hz depending on amp), louder and so it sounds like notes higher and lower than that loose output. Because it also puts strain on your equipment, many manufacturers, Fi for example, do not recommend using it. If this is incorrect, please correct me on this, but that's how I think it works...
  13. Sorry dude... I just bought it... but I think the SAE-1200D is still there. Only a few bucks more and so long as you don't go crazy with the gain knob, it'll be a good match.
  14. Dang, I'd better hurry up and order... These will go fast! Hey mom, I know what I want for Christmas!
  15. And jacob said "let the box be 4-5 cubes" and it was good. Gotta trust what the man himself says; he da boss.
  16. I would shoot closer to 5 than 4, but that's just me; I think that size should allow it to handle all the power you're throwing at it and get it plenty loud.
  17. You could crawl right inside of that port! What's it tuned to?
  18. You know the port tuning equation right? Port Length= ((8466.4 x radius^2)/(Boxvolumecuft x Frequency^2))-(1.463 x Radius) Also, why is 14 inches your max port length?
  19. What kinda amp is that? Looks like the BL had a barbecue!
  20. Yeah, some dudes at school were telling me they saw Fi subs at wally world and that they are a freakin' Chinese company! Ridiculous!
  21. I couldn't find anything... I guess they don't have it... There is a guy on here, brandondaily or something, (his display pic is his ford focus hatchback), he has this sub. I believe that his box is 4.9ft^3 after displacements, but I'm not sure where he got those specs.
  22. doesn't sundown have the enclosure volume on their site? If you want to tune low, go for 33Hz or lower.
  23. Wait, the X series are 300 watts rms? Wow, I didn't know that... Either way, great job, especially considering that you threw it together pretty quick. Love the box design!
  24. Yeah, I like the chrome I got on my BL! Fi:
