Thats not that bad. I had a shop employee go on to tell me that DD tried and failed and many DB drag competitions to the holy grail JLW7. The worst sales pitch I've ever heard. That was at Horizon Audio in Canton.and i live in dd country, not too far from okc //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif
lol i wish someone would say some stupid **** like that to me, i'd give them a demo. the pawn shop kid almost **** himself.
Maybe they like their music to sound good and not be loud //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/uhoh.gif.c07307dd22ee7e63e22fc8e9c614d1fd.gifI'm sure all of you have that one friend who is completely oblivious to car audio and has it set in his mind that JL (or whatever other company) makes the baddest subs on the planet. Well I have quite a few of those friends and frankly, I'm sick of it. I may not be the most experienced car audio person, but I know better. So, I'm going to use my Jeep as a way to prove my point.
So heres the planned equipment.
My 15" Nightshade Proto in my 3 cube at 30hz box.
Sundown 3000D or PowerBass x3000D. More than likely I'll choose the Sundown but I'd rather not beat on it.
Eclipse 8051 CD player
I'm going to be running a run of KNU 0 gauge.
My overall goal is to get as loud as possible without dumping tons of cash in my Jeep. First two things that come to mind are alternator and battery. Snoopdan has been kind enough to send me his build but in this case it doesn't really help me. So I'm trying to figure out what I need to do electrically so I don't toast my amp while proving my point. Anything you guys could give me some information on would be greatly appreciated.
Ok this kid has 2 w6's in his car hooked up to two shitty little after DEI buyout PPI amps, half way decent MB quart mids and highs and another shitty PPI amp. The loud is crank up all the way bass and some over SLA thing are all the way down so when he wants to get loud, he cranks everything up to zero and then cranks the CD player all the way up. Yea, it's loud but it sounds like total ****. The amps are way into clipping and everything is distorting. He has no clue how this **** works. And he has the nerve to tell me his subs are louder than mine only because he beats them to hell and back and they manage to survive the thermal load? Yea, his car sounds great.....Maybe they like their music to sound good and not be loud //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/uhoh.gif.c07307dd22ee7e63e22fc8e9c614d1fd.gif
I doubt its the box. I had the box design for daily use. I could probably crank up the input voltage on my crossover or add more gain. Currently the amp is running @ 1.4 ohms.you should still be louder with that equipment. build a new box IMO
