  1. For a house? An enclosure? An amusement park? Download Google Sketchup 7 and you won't have to count on anyone else for providing help.

    If your telling us your leaving...that's not really missing in action is it? Lulz
  3. Seriously guys, damn.
  4. Goodbye Q.
  5. It's REALLY easy to do, and free.
  6. Unless you have a good bit of space between the back of the enclosure and the back of the vehicle I can see you not being happy with it.
  7. Get some Decaf
  8. That is just a rule of thumb and does not always apply, I actually HATE that little "rule" because the port MUST be designed to suit the woofer, not the enclosure it is in. He's using 7.6 cuft.. he's gonna have a lot of cone area.. he isn't building this for a 6 inch woofer.. more like an 18.. and for high excursion woofers that rule of thumb is necessary. At the very least he'll need to flare the port on both ends Port Area Calc. With an 18" high excursion woofer the "rule of thumb" is not enough. That's the point, it's a bad recommendation in most cases because it's normally not sufficient port area for the given woofer. That was the point of my post, not to argue but to clarify.

  10. Nice forum upgrade Welcome to SSA!
  11. I don't think small baby eater applies, maybe small baby elephant eater? Lol
  12. Dontcha mean quadruplets? They look good
  13. Crappy soft parts. I've had no issues with PSi soft parts. Nor have I heard or seen any. Daily they seem to work fine. But when we receive a recone with a shorted coil directly form PSI, and when we burp the other recone on only 3K watts and the cone rips in half, and we email PSI about replacing them and he says no because his soft parts are rated to 2500 watts. We got quad leads on the recones, we were going to be burping 8K per woofer hence getting quad leads, and we had mechanical failure at 3K.
  14. He has a thread on CACO as well, VERY good songs.
  15. Crappy soft parts.
  16. We hope to get some active users to build a database of pure car knowledge! If you know any tricks tips, heck changing the oil on your car, post it up!
  17. Don't post crap like that in someones thread.
  18. Aluminum coils take more power because they are flatwound, they have more surface area for cooling. Copper coils gave more mass, they are heavier.

    How much for the BTL? Lol
  20. yes, steve at FI wanted to go in a different direction than nick so they branched off and steve started his own brand Ascendant Audio, the companies are completely unrelated regarding owners and employees, but the technology is very very similar, if you look at an fi q vs an AA havoc you will find them very similar. both use teh same surrounds and spider structures, i have seen both and the build quality on both drivers was superb I currently run 2 Ascendant audio havoc 15's in a sealed enclosure, they slam pretty good, but they sound incredible both teh fi Q and the Ascendant audio Havoc are designed for sound quality first and loudness second, it does the first VERY well, and still manages to do a damn good job on the second. the havoc is alllmost as loud as the fi bl to the ear, but the bl shaves a few more db at the meter. The mayhem is ascendant audio's answer to the FI BTL, overall i would say they are an even match, though i would still choose Mayhem because to my ears they seem to hit the higher bass a little harder then the btl, but below 45 hz for both subs it is a dead heat. the SMD series is jsut insane, that's all i got to say about it, i don't have another sub to really compare it to that i have actually heard before, but if you want to ask me " is it louder then the btl?" or "does it beat the Mayhem?" the answer will be "yes, deffinately" That guy proved in the same post that he has absolutely no knowledge of woofers or the company that makes his woofers. His post =

    Looking at guts doesn't void a Sundown warranty, as long as you didn't tough anything.

  24. Looking to show off then eh? Try not to be a public menace as it ruins everything for true audio enthusiasts. It'll be as loud as you make it, if you do the installation correctly.
