How about I issue you a challenge? 45hz or less I dont care what size subs you bring nor how many batts,amps or vehicle.

How about it

can i join in is 154db at 40hz any good

[Mr. Slate]

He said he didn't care......

[thorshammer1]

Oh hell yeah!

Lets not forget that I issued Act Audio the challenge

[SPL Blazer]

Oh hell yeah!

You can always do this at the TNESPL 3X that your gonna help us out with next season, then it's not a wasted trip since you'll already be coming out.

[SICK GV]

Oh hell yeah!

Sounds cool but I was doing that last year. This years all business and my freq is around 65hz with the new ride so I dont think Id do to well with that lol. 2010 is brewing up to be a great year though

[Mr. Slate]

Still don't know how to find the resonant frequency of a vehicle. You're probably way off.

[spltuscon]

No worries, the vehicle is in my possession and I did the testing so I could build accordingly

Well maybe you could answer the question if you will please.

[spltuscon]

No offense Nate but I don't need to explain my method to anyone. Let's just say I used the most accurate method possible.

[Mr. Slate]

No offense taken. The method I was speaking of is a standard method of a knowledgeable competitor. If you have divised a way that works better then the standard that has worked for "real world champions" for many years, then congrats. Looks like you're on to something.
Here's another friendly question. Do you gaurantee that your builds will bring a
"National or World Title"?

[spltuscon]

No, I don't guarantee National or World Titles, I have no control over the customer following through on the rest of the build, equipment purchasing and their testing/competing. So it would be foolish of me, or anyone else to guarantee such a thing. I am only doing the boxes, not the other work involved.

I help the customer (regardless of who they are or what team they're on) achieve their specific goals, but I can only be responsible for my portion of that (the box build).

[Mr. Slate]

Nice answer. What designs or who are some of your favorite spl box builders?
This is turning into an interview, lol.

[spltuscon]

I don't like most peoples SPL boxes to be honest, a lot of them are effective for sure, but I prefer a clean finished look and preferable something unique. That was part of the inspiration for my Octoports, I have no interest in being a "me too" builder if you know what I mean.
As far as box builders go, I'm very picky about who's work I like. Pound That Sound comes to mind as someone who's quality is impressive to me.
The way I look at it, is that anyone can cut a hole and stick in an aeroport or make a simple slot port, but it takes skill to make something unique AND effective.
This is just my opinion and I'm not taking anything away from those who disagree or build purely for function, I personally just try to take it to another level. I'm a bit of a perfectionist, so I can't be happy turning out work I'm not proud of.
Just for the record also, I don't consider myself to be a hardcore SPL guy, I love to compete and build for others to compete, but I'm not gonna run out and spend $1000 to gain a tenth of a db. Just not my top priority in life so I try to do good with what I have to work with. I guess that's pretty obvious though, since I'm competing with hand me down Alpines...lol

[loudmofo]

Well maybe you could answer the question if you will please.

why is this so important whats funny is ask roo or bob how they do it they dont lol they build around it and just tune the port with the TL this is how they thought me that its they best way of getting ever tenth out of the box no need to find the resonant frequency of a vehicle if you know what your doing.

LMAO If that was me saying that Id be called a big dummy lol. Im glad there are other competitors out there who think outside the box. Speaking of which my new box is finished and its a piece of art. Can't thank Dave L. enough for all the man hours put in to it. Its worth way more than the car its built for.
