Gold Member Username: B101DD, RE, FI, TREO, KICKERUSA Post Number: 3888 Registered: Sep-05 | i had 4 walmart batts @ 1 point! i killed 2 of them and killed a 200a HO alt, with 5krms! none of them were deepcycled! but 300a HO alt, and 2 deepcycles batts did okay the type of batteries u use is MOST important! my friend has 2 SVR deepcycles, the biggest ones.. and he is about to run a MM4000d on it! so I know that will make tons of pwr, those SVR batts are amazing! Ive heard the MM4K on 2 yellowtops and its nuts! 1SVR = 3 yelllows... My next system will be 2-3 300a HO alts, and about 8-12 16v deepcycle batts! ext regulators mounted in the dash! |

Silver Member Username: JohnfiacIL USA Post Number: 735 Registered: Mar-06 | i think he jsut got a little to excited when he got that amps, he didnt spill on it he spooged on it j/p Whats the point of having a amp with a clear bottom? why not a clear top? i dont think people like to mount amp upside down just for the looks... makes things complicated.. but then so is the system  ... ill stick some picks on my amps nd such soon... btw i forgot to mention my amp pushing my mids\highs... add another .5k to my current 2.8k ..im doing about 3.2-3.3K depending on freq.. of course |

Gold Member Username: Safe_crackerChicago, IL US Post Number: 2061 Registered: Jan-06 | I remember when a 400W Sherwood was the SHIZZZZZ! I guess that makes me olllldddd... Polo. |
|
Gold Member Username: BestmankindFi AudioBTL Post Number: 7155 Registered: Oct-05 | my uncle used to have sherwood amp and a pair of jbl old school subs. according to him, it was loud back in the days. |
|
Gold Member Username: Safe_crackerChicago, IL US Post Number: 2064 Registered: Jan-06 | Ya, everything sounded good back then because it was all in sealed enclosures, no ports to mess with. When we heard that stuffing was the thing we tore old pillows up but the best was conveluted foam (egg crate foam) great sh!t for SQ! Polo.. |
|
Gold Member Username: BestmankindFi AudioBTL Post Number: 7156 Registered: Oct-05 | that reminds me my friend had a pair of old school kickers in his garage. that thing must of been like ten years old or something. it belonged to his brother. when we took the subs out of the box, there were bunch of socks in there. i guess people used whatever they can to stuff their box. |
|
Gold Member Username: Safe_crackerChicago, IL US Post Number: 2065 Registered: Jan-06 | lol ya but not socks, lol. I am talking closer to 15-17 years, longggg time ago, haaaa. My first set of subs were actually a set of home speaker I think they were 8" Genesis, had green surrounds and octogon shaped magnets, sound good. Had these in the back seat and a pair of Jensen coaxial 6x9's (blue surround) extrememly loud on 120watt plate amp(A/D/S). Those were the days... Polo |
