    1999 Z28

    I have a 2000 SS. I had a custom made stealth box that fits in the left rear of my car with an IDQ12 in it. I wanted it louder and lower so I built a ported box that fits in the storage area. I was thinking of putting a ported 15" in there, but I don't want to upgrade alternator or amp...

    Powering help 165K2P

    I don't know anything about that amp. But I have powered mine with a PPI PC4100, PC6600, and a PG Octane amp. They sound the same regardless, at 100W each they will go louder (unbearably loud). They'll sound the similar unless the amp is horrible. Brian Edit that fixed crossover might be...

    Pneumatic sub

    No I haven't seen that episode yet, but I'll look forward to it. Since I haven't seen it I can't speak for what they did. I thought he wanted to try to play actual music with it. If you are just trying to make a loud sound borrow a garbage truck and drop a dumpster on the ground, that would...

    Pneumatic sub

    I also have worked with hydraulic test equipment. The servo-hydraulic systems we use for automotive testing can easily work to 40Hz and probably 100Hz as a subwoofer where there is very little mass to move. I have never considered doing it. When we have run frequency sweeps it excites the...

    PPI PC4100 Fried Help!

    Thanks guys... I'll take a pic and send it to ur company. It is hard for me to pinpoint what went wrong first cause there appears to be several things toasted. I know I could not replace it for repair cost, so I will try that route first. Brian

    PPI PC4100 Fried Help!

    Any suggestions about getting this fixed or is it toast? I was just driving down the road, radio was not loud, and then POP POP and smoke came out of the amp. It doesn't power up, the board has several burnt components and 3 of the MOSFETS are cracked into pieces. There appears to be no...

    which one would you chose?

    Turn down the gain on the 3.5". Also if you run them crossed over rather high freq I think they would handle more RMS than rated as long you don't try to get anything remotely low freq out of them. Brian

    First amp install

    You can control 4 speakers, no idea what you are talking about. He would just run 2 sets of RCA's off his head unit. He is only pushing 50W RMS with that amp, though 30' of smaller gage wire isn't the greatest idea it should work just fine. Electricity runs thru wires pretty quick compared to...

    which one would you chose?

    I have a PG Octane 8.0:4, it is very clean I haven't had any issues with it. I just replaced it and want to sell it. I'm selling it for a fair price, but no one seems to want it. Guess I'll have to post on e-bay. I'm asking $100 without shipping. It is looks brand new. Brian

    WTB: Video Card

    You could get a Radeon 9700 Pro from e-bay for about $60. If you look at tomshardware.com it still performs quite well with the newest high $ video cards with the exception of the PCI Express cards. Brian

    IDmax 15" not too loud

    That is a good sub. ID web site says 1.35cuft sealed, the driver is 0.15cuft so you need at least 1.5cuft. I would go with a ported box for that sub though. Their ported specs are 2.28cuft with a 4"x15" port. It will be loud with this box and the SQ will be great. If it still isn't as...
