I'm guessing around 150. i dont think he will really hit much higher than that because of his 36hz tune and his car probably peaks at a much higher freq. but i really hope he brakes 150 because i know he will be happy lol.

i think he'll peak at 42-44hz being his 36 hz box. if he peaks higher then his box is actually tuned higher.
i dont think he'll get as high as that either. but yes, it is possible. 151-152ish is my guess. i hope your right though!

mid to upper 40s maybe a 50.4
just too many factors...

I agree B, but I'm going with gut feeling that he'll hit atleast very high 40's . lots of people are hitting 145 with a 15 sx. hes got twice the cone area with 5000wrms and a nice box, just not a SPL oriented box. i still think he's got a good chance at 150. but the 153's and stuff i find hard. i actually just realized i put 151-152. typo, mean 150-152 (52 for the what if factor :P) but i didnt want to put anything below that becaus eI'm really hopin he hits 150 :-)

his box is tuned o 38hz.. so it should peak at 38hz.. and consider the setup and power.. he should at least see 150s. but of course if it does not do that good some tuning and changing will get him there easily.. I'm still sticking with 153.4dB at 48hz .. given he runs outlaw door open

are you sure? I'm quite sure its 36hz. and if it were 36hz it peaks above the frequency not right at it. at tune, the cone moves little and most the sounds comes from the port.

cause at that tune, its damn good...
and its sounds good...

when I put my 4 - 6 18s in my suv... I dont really care how loud i hit!! cause its gonna be for the streets not for the mics...
yea I could tune high as hell and sound like crap and hit lower to mid 60s!! Cause I will have enuff power!!

but why??? I rather tune it low as sh!t 30-32hz, and expect a 50 something and shake the planet!! and sound damn good while doin it!!!

and I promise it will be WAY more impressive than sayin it did a 60 something....

B, you can actually tune up to 40hz if you want depending on the subwoofer. because with a 40hz tune and all that power and cone area the 30hz will still be like 150 lol. Btu some subs like lower tuning, i dont know what you are using but for example if they are DD subs, they would work great in a 38-40 hz tune and still make your head explode with 35 cycles 30 cycles 25 cycles and then just shaking you with no audible noise, except your car going what the fack is going on!? in rattles lol

I guess my whole thing is... why is everyone chasing "50" db

lol

some people are willing to do anything to get 50 like tune ungodly high.... blah blah

I just think its more impressive to hit 46db @ 27-30hz than it is to hit 50-51db @ 44 hz....

and NEVER will I tune a box 38hz or higher! just my prefference... unless Its SOLEY for competition!!

Trevor I know that DD tunes their enclosures pretty high 38-40... but I would still like to thro one in a box thats 30-35hz or so...

my friend had 4 15s in a enclosure tune to 38hz with 4krms... and it sounded remarkable... plenty of sq... subs were some TSXs... put when he sealed 2 of his aeros to drop the tune, it just got ridiculous... and smacked u!! :-) I like being smacked by subs....

but like u said, it depends very much on the subs... and DD is like 1 of the very few who recomend such as tuneing...

I guess Im more for the feelin.... I LOVE crazy lowes... even the ones I cant hear, when the dashboards go crazy, and the hu presents the illusion like its coming out of the dash....

next year that van will be walled with 4 DD9900s and DD amps :-)

okay guys it was a disappointment.

145.1 burp
142.1 bass race.

damn looks like i got some work to do. according to one of the guys there, i am losing too much voltage and i am not getting the full power of the amps. also he told me subs up and ports forward should gain some spl for me.

i am however pretty happy with my bass race score.

congrats chad, what really matters is thats your loudest system you've ever had. i bet you dont wanna sell them now huh? i bet you wanna redo and re test for a higher score :P

a major reason is because of your tuning. if you tuned just below your cars resfreq. i bet youda hit 150 or damn close to it. great daily setup though, very impressive as that.

I'd keep that box as your daily beater and start working on you SPL box. first find out your cars resfreq. i bet its kinda high, well compared to like my car lol. Thats good though because it'll shorten your port allowing you to have greater port area.

also were you street-beating before the comp? heated coils would have got you lower numbers not to mention your charging system might not has been charged fully if you had done so :-)

also where did you put the mic? and was thisd legal or outlaw?!

145.1 on the dash is pretty dam loud.

but run a sweep next time and find your true peak...you may be surprised at what freq. your car actually likes.

also, lean youre seats as far forward as you can and huge the dash on the drivers side...whoever is in the passenger side, make them kinda squat down in the floorboard.

To those numbers at your first comp I was impressed still. All you can do now is improve. If you play those test tones everyone is talking about. Maybe you would of been closer to 150, but next time, next time indeed. And hopefully me and you will run against each other around that time. Should be fun =).

Chad, I thought of a idea if your willing to try it. But your box is pretty big. Take out your back seats, like all of it, and find a way to position the box where the subs face up and port front. See if it gets loud, then maybe you can make a new box, subs up port front.

Chad wanted to try subs up port front bc the subs waves were hitting the seats so he thought that might of been a problem. So he thought about subs up and port in the middle between the seats. And it would resonate off of the walls better with better flow. So just thought I'd tell him maybe he should try to reposition his box and see what happens.

My 149.8 two weeks ago was USACi style (in the kick)

I do ~147.5-48 on the dash....my box is built to be loud outlaw. If I was building for legal my box would be completly different in my truck.

Vehicles reach slightly different legal and outlaw to different box designes. In some outlaw setups, you may be ~5dB lower legal.

Chad most of the things, you already knew what to do b4... lol

now u bass raced @ 142.1db and burped @
145.1 db...

which really is right about where u should be... (4-5db) louder than playin music... u are 3 db louder....
so with ur right freq u could just be about 2 db louder than ur 145....

I also told u how many batts u needed b4 for 5 krms....

I promise u 1 amp @ .5 ohm is just about as loud as 2 amps @ 1ohms... I was quite surpised when I added my other amp and went up to 1 ohm each, that they werent that much louder than 1 @ .5... :-O

I promise u 1 amp @ .5 ohm is just about as loud as 2 amps @ 1ohms... I was quite surpised when I added my other amp and went up to 1 ohm each, that they werent that much louder than 1 @ .5... :-O




Really, I had no idea that there was that big of a difference between .5 ohm and 1ohm. I am considering buying another orion 5000d, but if it's not gonna make a difference i'll just let the one do it at .5ohm.

with impedence rise and all, a 1 ohm load normally is about 2-3 ohms durin music play...

a .5 ohm load with impedence rise is about 1-2ohms or so..

NO the amp dont get a bit warm at all... I played it all day for many days... extremely loud... worry about ur subs warmin up 1st...

if u CAN NOT supply this amp current and voltage needed @ .5 ohm... then forget about runing it @ .5... :-)
expect about 200-250 amps of current draw PER amp... so u will need a VERY strong chargin system and not just 2 batts to back it up!!

either or WCC 5000d or the d5000 or the hcca-5000, all are .5 stable...

again if ur chargin is not up to par... ur just gonna end up clippin ur subs then eventually poofing ur amp! and possibly poofing ur alternator too....
