There's a used bitone for sale on diyma or c ac o, like $550 or so.

Cute kids. We only had a few tricker treaters this year.

Even better: http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/eug/1965721396.html

Go in the "strictly platonic" section. Even weirder. Like this http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/phi/1755781713.html "Not a narc"

Schweet. I like the look of the new dustcaps.

Love the desk Teo. But whats up with the hard drives being tilted.

Now super patriots will get mad!

Is that another Volvo? Looks damn loud.

Well im tuned in to see the results.

No doubt 600 watts is plenty of power. I was just saying since there was a concern of lack of output and there was only "600 watts" going to a sub rated for "1500 watts". Maybe a little more power would do the trick, since the sub is in a small box. It'll be interesting to see what the culprit turns out to be in this one. Keep us posted. Nonsense, when I had my bl I was using a saz1500, when I sold the bl, the guy tested it in my car, same box, but with his 400watt Sony xplod amp. It was almost as loud as before.

Im on my phone, otherwise I would. Looks clean.

Now to find a somewhat shallow set of components to work in the space, am assuming I will have minimal depth to work with in the doors. Will be running passive with around 80-100 watts of power. Amp is still in question. Have you decided how many speakers will be running and how many channels the amp will need? I'm guessing you need a 4channel or 5channel? Infinity KAPPA FOUR (4channel) http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_17780_Infinity-KAPPA-FOUR.html Infinity KAPPA FIVE (5channel) http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_17416_Infinity-KAPPA-FIVE.html JL Audio XD700/5 (5channel) http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_28013_JL-Audio-XD700-5.html I've used all of those and they worked great. Not saying that's what you need to get, might be able to find a 5channel eclipse cheaper. So many options.

Peaks and impedance, but that's about it. Thanks. Found a stellar deal on a hertz amp locally. The used xcon I was looking at sold, getting a pair of dcons. Pretty excited to finally have a well rounded setup.

Is that what you ended up with or just found those? Another option is just powder coating the stock ones black. Finally found something that doesn't have a shit ton of chrome. Werd, Chrome don't get you home! Unless you are using Chrome to browse Google Maps directions to your house...

I don't get into any hype of "tuning low to kill the low notes, blah blah blah" but 20hz seemed to make the FR pretty damn flat in relation to sealed, but in modeling it's only a 1-2dB increase. Sounds like I should do sealed then.

thanks, I'm having someone build my box to so maybe they can make it a little larger to make up for the lack of power. Ideally I'd want to run 750rms to it but I dont want to deal with issues down the road. plus kicker sells this 500rms amp that apparently has a rly small footprint and is pretty efficient which I'd like to run. Don't get caught up with numbers, your going to be hard pressed to notice a difference between 500watts and 750watts (really wouldn't be able to tell). Not to mention those numbers don't actually mean your drivers will be receiving anywhere near that power for very long. Larger enclosure volume increases efficiency, if you have the room for it.

Well then. I'm either tuning very low (assuming I can get the port length) or going sealed. Going to look something like this: May just do sealed since the port length might be a complete bitch to try and fit (say 20hz tuning), plus 18" driver will have tons of output for me (at this time ) I'll have to do some more tuning with the ms8, perhaps crossover the mids a little higher.

Thinking about going sealed for my next enclosure. I modeled the xcons in sealed vs ported, ported is already fairly flat, or with a lower tuning it's nearly identical to sealed but with more output. What exactly makes the difference in sound between sealed and ported?

That's plenty, you could run even less.

Hahaha, people are gonna see that and say wtf. Pretty sweet though.

I could be wrong, but wouldn't very large sealed = ib? Oh and modeling ib didn't look spectacular, but id still like to try it like you said.

What do you mean open up? Are you going ported from sealed? When I was doing my Anarchy build they are way more efficient ported. If I remember correctly I was building for 0.5-0.7^3ft tuned to 60-70hz. I remember reading from a couple users that the Anarchy mounted IB is very poor. Trying to port my kicks would be a pain trying to get enough port length under the dash for around 70-80hz. Ill have to check specs and my math again heh. I was planning on cutting open the back and making it almost ib / aperiodic, since it would be open against the carpet floor. I can always close them back up relatively easily. Was the info on ib for the anarchies on diy ma?

*facepalm*, completely forgot Watts has one.

Thanks bro. I am going to drop an SQ bomb on the Hyundai next year! Can't wait to see what you have in store. I still have to open up my kick pods and see if my ex-anarchies open up any.
