Hmm... Talk stupid to me.. Roll off in what way? lmao

Just testing to see which ports would be louder is all, Im going to be doing this for music, but I wanted a consistent thing to test with so i went with tones.

I might try tuning to 36 or something.. And your in a hatchback.. no fair.

Nice... So lets say 1db for flares, another 2-3 when i wire it to .5 ohms. We are gettin to 50 boys.

Wonder how much Ill gain with flares

It was a nice day, and the shop is closed on sunday so I decided to break out the old TL and do some testing. At the moment, the ports I am using are for testing purposes, just form tube, no fibreglass enforcement or even flares for that matter, so I know there is still more I can squeeze out of this. All testing was done with Two 15" Icons on a Crescendo 3500d (At 2 ohms keep in mind). Pretty basic electrical with only a single kinetik 1400 as a second battery. First Test : 6.cuft / 8" formtube tuned to ~27hz 30hz - 137.94db 35hz - 139.19db 40hz - 141.53db 44hz - 143.20db 46hz - 143.52db Second Test : 6cuft / 8" formtube tuned to ~ 33hz 30hz - 138.23db 35hz - 140.03db 40hz - 142.07db 44hz - 143.68db 46hz - 144.01db Third Test : 5.8cuft / 10" forumtube tuned to ~33hz 30hz - 138.90db 35hz - 140.63db 40hz - 142.95db 44hz - 144.48db 46hz - 145.11db It was a good day.

Working on an 07 S65 AMG at work... Gorgeous fuckin car. Literally impossible to take the rear power headrests out though.. M5 if you happen to know how.. Id love to know. lol

Retuning and testing the sub box.. Gonna try a few different frequencies and see what turns out best!

The high end kicker amp kits are very solid... Everything fits perfect, tech flex on the power wire, extremely solid crimped terminals.

Alright, so my boss finally warming up to the idea of making a wall in his Cavalier for our shop demo car! Now, this isn't 100% going to happen, but I'm excited and want to be ready for when he decides. I know this place has a ton of knowledge, plenty and plenty of people who have made walls. I guess I'm looking for just general rules and/or tips to make sure it will turn out well. Iv decided just to make a normal, flat and vented wall. Leaning towards 4 15's with a nice big slot port on the drivers side. Any tips are welcome of course, thanks guys!

Welcome to the SSA Forum.

Welcome.

Yes!

You make me sad.

Welcome

Fi BTL's.. Zcons are both great choices.

kenwood excelon units are nice aswell

Looks about right to me.

Check out the SSA store, multiple quality subwoofers, all built for different applications. There needs to be atleast one SSA subwoofer that will suit your needs.

Iv got two 15" icons in the trunk of my impala. I built it inside the trunk. It came out to ~6 cuft, with a 10" aero port tuned to about 33hz. Both subs and port firing forward. It's working out great so far.

Yes, any ground will work, I usually just connect it to the ground of the radio harness.

Simply just connect the parking brake wire, (light green) to ground. Thats all.

Which head unit is it?

youtube isnt showing up for me either way.. o.o

Holy shit that basket got screwed up bad.
