Finally done!!!!!! They look decent enough for me, but their sound is amazing. I am so happy.

They sound absolutely astounding, I can't even begin to put into words how well they reproduce everything. They are VERY VERY loud, and even at high volumes they still retain their clarity and quality of sound.

Well sorry for the delay, had a few box issues. Like it breaking. lol

We were testing one day, I did a weak ass score and decided to build a new box. Seeing as the one I had was a truck box out of my Ram and had cracks in the wood from getting wet. So I had my friend who was there with his truck to swing up to the hardware store and grab some MDF for me. Alan and I started on the box a few days later.

Even till today my woofer are running on 1 coil each, which also hurt the score that day. But I'll tell that tale later. For now, pics.

I will add ALOT more tomorrow, my computer doesn't have an SD slot but the main house computer does but the network is being gay so I can't just pull them from the other one.

I just threw all the amps in and left it all messy for a show the day after the box was done.

Show results.

At the "show" they were using some stupid hand held meter so I decided not to waste my $35 on that. Instead, my buddy Taylor brought his TL to the show so I could find out new peak, new score, and all that jazz.

After a few demos to random people I knew he showed up, and I got to testing.

Testing was short, but real sweet. Keep in mind, all these score are from 2 MT 18"s, from the back of a van with 2/4 coils working on a weak 3k.

Started with this.

Moved passenger seat up, and leaned forward.

Moved Mic to driver kick

1494.jpg

Slid driver seat forward and leaned it forward to match passenger.

Now for the other tale, after the show I took my girlfriend A.K.A. "xGTDropTopx" to a job interview. On the way home from there I was bumping E-40's song "Lightweight Jammin" and got a HORRIBLE smell from the back only to see smoke pouring out the port. :suicide-santa:

Now I have one "working" woofer and a woofer with cooked leads. I also have a set of Quad 1.4ohm coils at my friend Alan's house as well as a stack of spiders.

MANY people say I will shatter 150db simply by having all functioning coils. Some even say 151's just from the coils. ;)

Got my Psi Re-cones in yesterday, put woofers in today after replacing them last night.

Just from hearing them I knew they were louder.

They have Extended Dual .8ohm Coils, 3 hard spiders, and dual sewn leads.

Went to test and.......

All scores are unmanned with me not in van.

Passenger Kick, driver door open.

not too bad for a non-walled mini-van btw

Indeeed. Congrats on the 150 club :D

With a spl box and powah you should be in the 153's

I'm thinking just by getting my power into 8,000rms I'll be in to 153's maybe even 154's. :)

Yes I still lurk around here Drew. And as always, I am your biggest critic...You need to stop playing around and wall it already.. Or a Tunnel 'O Death.
