SUNDOWN/FI BEATIN

im pretty sure no one will know that off the top of their head... considerign you can take two identical cars and get two different resonant freques... the only way to find out really is with a meter.. build an enclosure to you liking.. size and what now.. install it in the car, cover the ports with some wood. then run a sweep.. where ever it peaks thats were you tune your enclusure for SPL that is..

well i wrecked my 08 Mazda 3 sedan taht i had a 15'' FI BL and 1 1500 sundown in.. doing 145 at the headrest.. so im starting over in my 01 volvo s60 T5.. i hope this car gets loud as easy as the mazda did.. anyways what you see here is my incomplete isntall with 2 SAZ1500.1 and 1 SAZ100.4 as well as a rockford 360.2 and two batteries.. one is under the trunk floor in factory location.

wish i could have been there... oh well ill be ready for the next one.. HEHE..

well i got tired of no bass so i put a temporary system in... i borrowed fordmccord 10'' audioque HDC3 strapped on the 2 1500s with two batteries... one is in factory location under the floor...

i wish i had the money.. id ditch my 2 1500s.. i hope enough people get on the list i really wanna see one of these beasts.!!

i had a set of lanzar DCT "cheap 1'' tweets" with my gains set very high.. about 90 to 100 watts.. and ran them every day.. LOUD.. but then again i could set my crossover slopes really hard on my frequency range with my 360.2..

www.subwoofertools.com read the little amplifier gain article then use this http://www.subwoofertools.com/forum/setgain.asp also on that last link there was a link to a JL audio tutorial its actually failry informative for the newbie

yeah i agree... for 1 1500 i think an alt upgrade is a little overkill... but a good kinetic, powermaster, or DECA battery is a necessity.. otherwise you will be dropping voltage hard... the big 3 is good,, if you really like you stock head unit though you could get a rockford 360.2 or JL clean sweep or something like that..

im actually looking at 2 niteshades... 12s'' height is my only limit... depth and whidth once inside the trunk is in good shape.. so yeah thats the plan.

no i only ran 1 1500 on that 15... i had intentions of ruinnning them strapped on that one 15 but since it wont fit in my car it must go.

alrighty here are some pics.. i dont have it complete with battery box and sub/subs .. because all i have is a 15'' FI BL that wont fit in the opening of the car.. .. so the sub is for sale... its a 15'' FI BL Daily option with colling and FW coil . ... there is my scared up 4 channel from the wreck..

well it took about 2 weeks after the mazda wreck but i got a new ride.. its an 01 volvo S60 T5 .. i will be doing a single 15 at first but with my calculation im pretty sure this car will be getting 2 15s soon... hehe.. PICS TO COME..

i got the estimate today it is 12,400 + more for labor to replace the front frame rails so im pretty sure they arent going to fix it.. im looking at a 2006 Ford F150 regular cab..(big regular cab) i hope to get something soon so i can get ready to finnish the SPL season.

i know one of the guys on my team ran a 3000D on a single 150A ANL daily.. thats what he needed to compete in his class. so we never took it out.. and it held for probably 3 or 4 weeks of daily playing.. we clamped the power wire behind the fuse at around 300- 320 amp... so yeah fuses are not accurate..

yeah that box setup was only temporary... the nite of the wreck i had plans of building a wooden floor which i could secure the box to ... also this is only a $13,000 car brand new... its the plainest one they make... soo really it wouldnt take much to equal 75% of its value...

yeah i hope it is fixable.. i love that car... and iv got a lot of work in it.. ill find out from Fortune colision today if it is totaled or not..

yeah if it had made it through im pretty sure that would have hurt really really bad...

yeah im ok minus a few bruises and a hurt wrist.. but yeah.. i have full coverage of corse.. but were not sure if its totaled or not.. if it is i unfortunately wont be able to afford another new one.. probably gonna look for a nice S10 or something.. if anyone has a nice extended cab s10 or other truck.. or really anything im gonna be interested as soon as i find out wt the insurance company is gonna do.

well guys i had all these plans for my mazda.. i finally figured the car out as far as getting it loud. and today i had a wreck. it had soo much force it broke the screws out of the metal holding the box down and shoved it through the trunk opening.

i took a few pics.. ill get them up... soon.. oh yeah jeremy.. typo im in S2 .. lol..

oh yeah i dont think i mentioned the fact that i did that score at 32hz as well.. hehe.. lol car moves quite a lot...

i went to the MECA comp in E town this past saturday and compteted in street 2. i won first place by default lol.. but my 08 mazda 3 sedan did put up a 144.9 with a single 15'' FI BL and a single SAZ1500 i am strapping two 1500s on the sub for the next show.. as well as some more tweakin.....

i know you guys are buisy and all but i have been trying to get information on gettin my 18'' BL either warranty or a recone because one of the voice coils only works sometimes. but i have a competition coming up in a couple weeks and i really need this sub fixed in order to get the points i need to go to state finals.

well guys im from KY i have 1 18'' FI BL daily loaded with a sundown audio 1500 on it in a 5.5 cube box tuned to 34hz .. it hits a meca certified 145.1 at the headrest. i have a 3 way JL audio component setup and polks in the back doors run on a sundown audio 100.4 .
