  1. A lot of the testing I have seen, it did help the score. Were talking a few tenths though, so if your looking for the smallest gain for competing then try it. If this is daily then your wasting your time imo.
  2. Oh, so because I choose to run my amps below 1 ohm I magically can't afford power for my woofer? Odd, I have over 2x rated power on it........ It's funny you bring up "I have over twice the rated power on it" as that's completely irrelevant, but that's quite an amazing feat, I commend you for that. My point is very simple, I don't believe in pushing equipment beyond it's limits. Sure the amp could possibly work for quite some time, but there is no arguing that the longevity of the amplifier is degraded. If I want more power, I'll take overall reliability and buy more amplifiers, not push it to the limit.

    Glad you posted that, Dem beats
  4. Also assuming your wiring config isn't changing.
  5. Im assuming the filters and gain are set equally. Assuming yes, I don't see why there would be any difference audibly.
  6. I know your joking but I hope you didn't take any of my comments negatively.
  7. Okay man, I'm going to need your address right now. I'm going to do some early Christmas shopping with a rock, oh shit did I just say that out loud?! Tools always help, but YOU (or grandpa) made that enclosure what it is, awesome job man.

    I know right. Everything put aside from Apple or any beef people have with their products, he was a pioneer, sad to see someone so great (in my eyes) die, especially at his age.
  9. Why would you do that and why do you believe that? Curious how he tested the 200A at idle as well... So I wouldn't have to recone the btls.. But I might go with a different option, nothing is set in stone right now. Just weighing options. I could get an amp that does power at 2 ohms! Cost of recones VS cost of an amplifier that makes the power you want at 2ohms in comparison to one that does it at 1ohm. Power is the least efficient way to increase output, it's easy though.
  10. Cutting slack in 3 2 1, slack cut.
  11. Why would you do that and why do you believe that? Curious how he tested the 200A at idle as well... Some magical fairy from smd probably said "Just add 0.2 to 0.4 to the og load." His website looks decent enough that you'd think he would actually go into detail about the alts. 200A idle at what rpm? and rpm of alt or engine, heh.

    Guess you can scratch it off the list now?

    Lol. Okay guys I did it! Did what?! I watched some wnba.
  14. It's one thing to do it for burps playing a sine wave where the impedance will rise and likely plateau somewhere like a logarithmic function. But music is dynamic and there is no telling what the impedance will be. It will constantly be rising and dropping, enough to put additional stress on your amplifier. Overtime it might just catch up and bite you in the ass. I don't claim to be "all knowing", nor do I have a firm understanding on the fundamentals of speaker design and so forth, but I tend to open my ears from time to time, and read here and there.
  15. Oh yeah everyone forgot about impedance and frequency... Silly us.

    Steve Jobs just passed away.
  17. That all sounds great, except for the 0.5ohm. 0.5ohm = people who can't afford to get the "power" they want at 1ohm. I guess it's one thing if your competing and rewiring for daily... Just my opinion, I'm sure a bunch of others will jump in here and say "I've wired my xxx down to 0.5ohm and haven't had any issues. blah blah blah. You just need a strong electrical. blah blah blah."
  18. His website is pretty useless, just a contact form.
  19. So f'in jealous of that shop.

    How the eff was this filmed!!?!?!?! Helicopter? Used sound from a mic on the guy, not from the camera on the heli.
  21. How was the packaging when it arrived? Any possible chance of filing a claim with ups? Sad hearing this.
