on an ancient motor

oh yea, cause I'm shooting for 350 flywheel

hooooooooly crap. some moron want's $550 for a "possibly cracked... ...little shaft play" T04e 54trim. Why are people so stoopid?

OMG I havent heard anyone mention the proper name in a looong time. Prolly not since I stopped crusing diyaudio.. LoL

1. To run 1/0 gauge through my car ( i got quoted 30 bucks) depends on the car $20-$50 2. Install an amp and a sub with box and wiring for a friend is there a stock HU? If not, are there patch cables in place already? I'd say to run +, -, Rem, slap amp on box, screw box to vechicle, pull HU & run rca's.. $75 - $150 3. Install a HU Very vehicle dependant, but $20-40 4. A full install (2 sets of speakers, 1 sub, and amp with wiring and box) Again, drop in speakers or mod's needed? are these speakers off the stock wiring or an external amp? So on, So on. Hourly @ $40/hour I generaly dont charge anyone, if they throw me some cash, that's cool. Keep in mind, I only install for good friends & family. I'm not going to deal with wing nuts who don't understand why they can't turn the HU up past the vol. I specify. -Nick

Sorry, I didn't mean to laugh AT You, persay. This is just like 101 stuff that I assumed You knew. You're right on the group delay portion... but thermal handeling does not change? Well, for the coils it doesnt change... however the coils can EASILY overheat with relation to tuning & excursion. cone speed is greatest @ tuning, therefore the motor's cooling abilities are at their respective peak. as You get away from tuning, You loose cooling efficiency. Now when You get into grossly over or underdamped enclosures, away from tuning, with actual rated current supplied to the motor is when You have to worry about mechanical limits. You'd most likely have to make a concious effort to reach xsus in "an average" install. Most of the popular woofers out now have motor designs that, by nature, limit power input in the lower harmonics. -Nick

gotcha... I was thinking along the lines of glass in the corner. It's nice looking work either way though, didnt mean to slight You

where in the grand am is that going? i don't know off hand how much the trunk changed from my '99 gt 4dr... but I just cant see that fitting along the wall...? maybe I'm thinking of the wrong placement Otherwise, good looking enclosure amigo If You would, let me know what You think of that amp... I still ahve a few of their comp's sitting around. -Nick

I've yet to find ANY good math on horns... let alond programs. Though, I prefer math & MS Excel. Sorry Jack-O

Good damned point.

LoL - agreed. It's very addictive. I've been fudging around with this truck for just about a year.... I prolly wont stop until I sell it or trade it in. But at least we're always looking to improve... thats good, right? -Nick

i just got a little riled up in the 'industry' topic... I'm definately not taking on the experience vs. education topic atm, as I sit here in my cubicle. :suicide:

BYW *raises hand* now Who read all of the above? and... Ryan, I'm down. [/Nick]
