August 10, 201411 yr SS around 20, LPF around 80 is my personal preference. Honestly it should be to where you think it sounds best and nothing we can really say without listening.
August 17, 201411 yr Author So I went to a local MidwestSPL event....got a membership ( would go national but I have a lot to learn bedsore I start messing with burbs) did not do what I thought it would score was 140.1 I do not like my score one bit but it's a starting point for me....a guy there said that there a lot of factors when it comes down to spl....like type of vechiel, type of box, seats or folded or not, so I tried it and went up too 141.7( peak was at 38hz) just by opening my driver door but the fact of the matter is that my box is tune so low that I'm not getting the numbers I want ... So I'm going to try a couple thing that the guys helped me with like moving the box up closer, folding back seats down and open the driver passenger door...see what that gets me and go from there....all in all had a great time everybody was asking what subs I was running and if they can get a demo so I did...thanks DSS for so great subs will post pics later
August 17, 201411 yr Look at the bright side, a lower score gives you lots of room for improvement. At least you are making progress. I'm seriously considering preordering a set of ethos 15s myself.
August 17, 201411 yr Author Yeah I'm still going to make some more adjustment at today comp a guy said he would help me adjust some stuff when I strapped them and how many watts I'm putting out...if all goes well I going to be buying another ethos.

August 20, 201411 yr Author So future upgrades will be another 18" ethos, group 34 juicebox battery, 240 - 300amp alt, plus couple sets of speaker....trying to see should I just buy the batt and sub or alt in the air with it right now make my choice on Thursday
August 20, 201411 yr Considering you were having gnarly voltage issues last I checked, I'd vote electrical upgrades. I know I am working on getting my electrical beefed up before I even think about a big amp or multiple subs, but that's just me.

August 20, 201411 yr Spend the extra money and buy a new one, Get on the Singer website and you can email him from there to get a price quote.
August 20, 201411 yr Author I been wait on a response from him how long do it take for him to respond back
August 20, 201411 yr Its not like he just sits by his computer waiting on emails, give the man some times as he does work too. Be patient man
August 21, 201411 yr I been wait on a response from him how long do it take for him to respond backIt can take a bit for him to get back to you. I recommend him over anyone else. I use him for my personally vehicles. I actually just bought a 160 amp for my daily driver. I'm running two IA 20.1's with two diehard marines and the factory battery up front and have zero voltage drop. And this is with the factory pulley as I'm waiting on a new belt so I can run his supplied overdrive pulley.
