PSI Custom 15's - Any good?
I've been trying to keep myself out of the dumps; life doesn't play nice sometimes I moved to Indiana, thinking about getting into school for some papers to hang on the wall in an audio shop one day Darn, PSI looked so promising, all the options they offer. Could I request something specific in the suspension? Or are they like that across the board?

PSI Custom 15's - Any good?
Can anyone who has had experience using, or heard firsthand, any PSI custom built subs give any pros or cons about them? For the price, I like what they claim, i've never heard one in person however. I've seen stuff here and there, but I really don't put much faith in many other forums word; this is my home forum So out of practice posting; My bad, to be more specific, I was eyeing up a set of Platform 2 15's.

Black Friday Subs
That was $15 for the pair also, any preference for port orientation, it's going to sit in a corner I was thinking sub one way, and port on the next face

Black Friday Subs
So far I have 1cuft @ 28hz/ea that i'll try, would I get a better result indoors, with slightly larger boxes, and more port?

Black Friday Subs
I picked up a pair of Xplode 10" subs on Friday for $15 Anyone have any specs for a box that will make these tolerable? I have 100wrms to go to each, it's in a college dorm. I have them isobaric on a bazooka tube for now, and it's okay, but drops real quiet below 40hz. I don't need it loud, just low. Note: I know, they're sonys.

R U 30 NAO? Nope. Just broken. Don't have time for things like I used to.

I miss the fun I had building those; it's why I wandered back here. I really love audio, and there's been a hell of a hole in my life without it. Though, I think the backpack idea died with my childhood.

Yes, that was me; lol.

I miss it here, I've been out of the loop for a while; lotsa crazy stuff happening. What's new around here? And where's M5, I want a hug.

Just WTF.....???

Damnnnnn that Soundigital is f**kin' small!

I'd trust M5's ear, despite our extra fuzzy friendship here on SSA When it comes down to it, weight and size are the limiting factors. The worst one i've built was 45lbs, and while it sounded good, wasn't as loud as i'd like, I had the battery power, but no room for a box. I can fit one more of these motorcycle batteries in the bag before it gets to the point of not fitting; are there any budget amp boards I could assemble myself to save on space? that would add room for a possible third battery. I'll try to measure my bag to see how much it can hold, but i'm not quite sure how to undertake this, as it's not a rigid structure. If I am able to unearth some specs on my battery, how do I calculate how much I can draw from it? What about 18v?

The Lepai operates from 9v-14.4, my battery sits a bit above 12v.

I had been looking at some Lepai amps, they look sweet, but I hear reports of only 7-10wpc as opposed to the acclaimed 20-40. However, people also say they are surprised at the output. So, I think 22wpc would be beast. I can't pull it up on ebay, it gives me no results; do you have a link?

Small application cap
I'm dealing with <200wrms here, and any weight I can cut out of it is useful; now, if they can even attempt to market a 1, or 2 farad cap for a car, surely it'd make a difference in the bag?

I figure, if building stuff like this keeps me out of trouble and off the streets, in addition to being fun as all hell, why not

I've had Bose 6.5's, Altec Lansing 5.25's, some deplorable sony's, Boston Acoustics; The biggest setup I ran was either the altec 5.25" on 100wrms + 25wpc on the horns on the bag straps, or the Isobaric Bose 6.5's on 50rms. here's a link to the most recent bag, Earthquake 4ch, Coby 4" sub in a 4th order, and two JBL monitor speakers, Motorcycle battery, and blah blah. http://s1166.photobucket.com/albums/q619/KTBearTrap26/

Small application cap
I know how useful caps are (or rather aren't) in a vehicle, but how about a smaller application, like my backpack? I haven't had the opportunity to experiment with this idea, so what do you guys think? For anyone who doesn't know, I use an Everstart 12v Motorcycle battery. It's about 6"x3"x5", not big, but it is enough to run most amps I have thrown in the bag (My oldschool Kenwood 60w 4 ch, my 100w Jensen, and my 200w Earthquake <-- R.I.P); however, deep bass notes tend to make the voltage sag (duh). I was planning on adding more batteries, and saying to hell with back pain (most recent design is pretty lightweight anyway, I have room to mess around) but if I could add a cap and save on weight, and a bit of room, that would be sweet.

Good low end extension from a comp set
We'll be using all factory locations; The front doors are 4x6's, how could we fit something better? This is supposed to be a basic install, so cutting his door isn't really an option. Affordable deadening options?

My friend drives a Chrysler Sunfire, and is looking at replacing the door speakers, along with the speakers in the back deck; His budget is ~500, but has to cover a new radio, and both pairs of speakers. Due to him not wanting to purchase a sub right now, what would be a quality set to invest in? He listens to a lot of rock and alternative and is concerned about how well the new setup will handle the drums and guitars.
