  1. As John said, it's a measure of resistance. The lower the ohm load, the lower the resistance. When you lower the resistance, you make the "pipe" larger. This allows more current to flow through it thus giving you more power. 1ohm on 1, 2, or 3 subwoofers it 1ohm. It will put the same amount of power out no matter how many woofers you have wired to it. It will, however, divide the power between the woofers. The lower the resistance, the more power. ***Not all amplifiers are designed to run at 1ohm.
  2. This may be true. Every vehicle is going to be different though. The crossover point might be right, but the slope might need to be changed. You might have to TA the one side. This is all pertinent stuff in a SQ install. Now if you're just looking for something that plays music a comp. set will be fine.
  3. Well you should predrill all of your holes anyway. And the screws really only need to hold for the first few hours, because after that the dried glue is what holds the box together. When I USED to use screws, I always predrilled holes. ALWAYS ALWAYS. However, I've found that a Titebond3 glue joint is more than sufficient.
  4. I just recently built a box for a 10" Icon. I can't express how happy I am with it.
  5. What is the power you can safely recommend with this option? Is it an option? Do ALL new ones come with?
  6. Why do you want us to go to ca.com? Do you know where you are ? SSA forums are way more instructive, reliable and serious. Just tell what you like, what you need,etc... and you will receive very good advices!!! I went to ca.com onceor twice, and I was really disappointed : lot of talks, bad talks,... In my opinion there is too much teenagers (or teenagers in their minds!) on this forum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've been to CA one time, and one time only.
  7. Huh? Oscopes aren't for ears... Of course amusingly I have used one on a cadaver ear, well sort of. Used the scope to look at the response of a measurement laser tracking the motion of the temporal bone. It wasn't a person though, just an ear. oscilloscope not an oscope. i just noticed it has the word oscope in it so i asumed it had something to do with sound. You may be thinking of an otoscope. Come on that's an auriscope The wonderful English language.
  8. Are they the same people trying to sell the Adire site?

  10. What the HELL happened to that last one!?
  11. How about an Incriminator 187?
  12. Thanks, any pointers on set up? http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...?showtopic=3704
  13. Everything looks good! Keep workin hard though
  14. Impressive! Got some serious output there
  15. I built a HT box for a 15" v2 mag. 5.5cuft at 25Hz. Words can not describe how happy I was with it. *I'm able to compare it to an Icon, Dayton HF, and a Paradigm PW2200. I'd take the Mag every time. (Just build larger and tune lower next time )

    They are warrantied down to 1 ohm. People do run them lower, but usually for burps. Even though Jacob makes some excellent amplifiers, I wouldn't run .5 daily.
  17. On a positive note, your wall does look good!
  18. I'm curious as to how they managed to give it a blood supply. My guess would be that you have to donate your own blood prior to the surgery. They would have some sort of pump and oxygenating system that would hook up to the pulmonary vein and artery. Just a guess though.
  19. All the vendors here are great. My personal favorites are SSA, Sundown, and Mach5Audio.
  20. I'd recommend the BL for you.
  21. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
  22. I honestly think this is going to be my next woofer. Congrats on your purchase!

    Unhook your subs from your amp. Turn your volume knob to where you want it and turn your REMOTE gain knob ALL THE WAY UP. Start playing the 50Hz test tone in a loop while increasing your gain on the amplifier. Once you hit 38.7 volts, stop. Plug your subs in. Don't touch your gain knob again. Never turn your HU up past the point where you set your gain at. You will blow your subwoofer.
