It took a month! I had to use my other truck during that entire period. I'm not waiting another month, I don't get how this company gets such good ratings for quality if it takes 3 attempts.

Sorry for the typos, on the phone typing.

I have a 260amp mechman alternator, and I just got it back from sending it in for repair. The alternator has never charged right from the first day I got it, and I thought maybe after it was warranty repaired it would charge at the correct voltage. Nope after a month of waiting, it charges at around 14.0 from 800rpms-1500rpms. 14.1-14.2 from 1600-up. It's supposed to be 14.4 at idle, but it little rally puts out nothing at anything under 800rpms, which my truck kinda varies from 500-800 for idle. The batteries are fine cause they sit at 13.3, and all my belts are tight. The pulley is already probably the smallest they can fit on this alt, so it's not that. My voltage even drops with only 600w rms, from 14 to 13.8-13.6. I'm getting really tired of it not working correctly, and very soon I need to be pushing a 3800w rms amp, so it's pretty important it works correctly. Any idea? Mechman doesn't seem to know why..

13 business days so far for my sp4, hoping it ships out soon. Order #2423

Sounds insane, Can't wait to see it in action

Thanks

Hahaha I will do my best that sucks though guys... Hope you get everything back up and running agian.On a side note I painted the port, and put some sexy long black fur like fabric on the box. Pics soon.

Well I don't have my sp4 yet, how long did it take for you guys to get yours? I ordered on the 20th of July. So it's only been a couple weeks so far.

Such a sexy subwoofer, bet it was loud as hell at that tuning. I though about tuning mine to 26hz so I could play the lows very nicely, but the box would've been massive.

I was a little worried about having 150, but there's so many different port calculators and then also people on different forums that say in that range. At first my design was 7.7 cubes tuned to 29hz with 120 inches of port. But I thought that might be a little too small. Anyways hopefully your wrong swift, cause I've put a lot of work into this box.

Agreed

Thanks man, I'm hoping it sounds at least as good as it looks

Nice, I was thinking of painting this box, but I thought about all the sanding I would have to do to make it perfect with all that resin... Also to note the sub hole is not resined because I don't physically have the subwoofer yet, still waiting on it from Fi. So to make sure the sub fits correctly I left it a little small, so I could sand it down and make it fit when the sub arrives.

That is pretty impressive, a lot of people seem to put beastly subs in boxes that weren't to the specs of the subwoofer. which means they aren't getting the full potential of the subwoofer. Trying to get as much as I can out of this 18. Port is going to get painted white, and the rest carpeted black.

Sorry for the typos, I'm typing on my phone and the autocorrect always changes words.. Annoys me.

Oh this is is just temporary in the bronco, I have getting funds and my truck together for the dcon build. The sp4 will be going in my car, but right now I want to play around with it a bit.

There seems to be a lot of different recommendations for port area size for the sp4 anywhere from 120-160. For the box I recently built the specs, are 7 cubic ft tuned to 31hz with 150inches of port. The port is double baffled with 45s in the corners, ill post some pictures in a bit. How do you think a fully loaded Fi sp4 18 will do in this box? I haven't designed too many boxes so I hope it is completely right. Also to note ill be running it on a crescendo 3500.

Agreed, that pretty much completely answers the whole thread and many peoples thoughts, so thanks ^.^

Well in my case it is not free shipping since I in alaska so.. do I get 250$ off? ;P haha, anyway I do have a lot of respect for both companies, and I really like the way the evil is presented and such as a product. Which for me is why I consider it even if it was the exact same loudness and such. One thing I would recommend is for SSA to somehow try to pull it further from the SP4 if it is quite different in reality. Its all in the marketing I guess, the way its presented. Which they did pretty good with the whole Evil name and look, but if they could take it a littler further somehow more so in specs than presentation. Just my thoughts so far.

Yeah haha that was.. enlightening.. Anyways in terms of goals/info, the car is a 2013 Chrysler 300. The car will probably never be entered in a competition, and might only once be metered purely out of curiosity. Want to be around 3000-4000w, hence why I chose the SP4 or Evil. I like listening to anything between 25-45hz, most often around 26-31 though. The front stage will be full on SQ, but I'm looking more for air movement/pressure with the sub stage. Hopefully that's enough information. Not sure how much space the trunk has, I haven't actually bought the car yet... But I'm guessing a single 15 will fit fine.

I realize I should have thought it all through first, but I'm an impulsive person most of the time haha.. sorry bout that.

Exactly my point, there are quite a few people around here curious about the same thing that's why I made the thread.

-sighh- alright, now that I think about it I remember that. But can someone at least tell me the goals of the SP4 in comparison to the Evil? I will probably end up getting the evil, but still.
