Part of them not sounding better is because this site is 90% SPL oriented, and as Audiohalic put it "good sounding" is subjective. So if your listening to some Ludacris or Techno or other bass heavy music and your listening mostly for the bass hits then I can see where people find a distaste...

When I fired it up for the first time it was almost like there was little to no life to the sub. This was also a brand new woofer and it definitely got better with break in. But it blends and transitions soo naturally and has zero boom or distortion that it almost seems as if the sound system...

x2 was a great educational read. I for one really enjoy my distortionless xbl^2 sub, took a little bit getting used to but now I don't think I could ever go back to a conventional, at least for primary sq oriented setups.

That thread was cross posted all over back then and got some good discussion on this site as well as Diyma. Seems I can't find that particular thread on ca.com but found it on DIYMA, I kracked open some Krystal kables. - DIYMA.com From what I remember back in the day when reading it all was...

I'd say you hit your goals, and best of luck maintaining those goals while expanding, I'm sure it can be quite tough if not **** near impossible. Its been a while since I have been around but I remember the few times corresponding with you was always a pleasure. Plus your amps just straight up...

This!! With those constraints I would suggest checking out the Stereo Integrity Mag v4. Its a 12" but 5.5" mounting depth and great sounding sub. Also only needs 1 ft^3 so it won't take up tons of room, or run 2. I am not sure how easy it will be to find one though, will be used only and there...

Ok, cool. I got you guys on facebook and I'll make sure to check up regularly. Hoping to improve some stuff and then maybe take the step into the competition lanes. Worst case I'll just try and hit up your other shows and check things out.

that is a work of art!! Love the attention to detail on the construction and looks sweet to boot.

dang I go away for a few years and this still isn't done Hope everything is going good man keep up the good work, I'm looking forward to seeing it finished up and seeing the computer all done too. It's definitely a ton of work and easy to get discouraged.

Been forever and a day since I was active on these forums but looking to make a come back and even see about getting to some of these events. I saw earlier that you guys (NESPL) were listed to have some competitions a the UMass Motorsport Spring Car show on April 30th. I didn't see anything...

I was one of the lucky ones to win the recent give away of a 40pack of second Skin SPL tiles. I had some other deadener given to me as left overs from a friends project, and ordered a bulk pack of damplifier pro so I could at the least finish up my floor, I am hoping to use the left overs to get...

I thought this was the cool thing to do Ultimately biggest thing I think is it depends on the year of the truck. For F250's 99-04 (04 is a switchover year I think) the rear seats are different. With the early trucks you can do a modification to the brackets to get more area behind the seats...

good to hear, post up some more as you get some more experience with them. I have wanted to run some of them for a while now.

x2 Dremel has been a great investment. Cut off wheels are very handy. Just tape things off carefully and draw your cut lines on the tape and with a steady hand (take your time) you can get it cut. Cut a little small to give yourself room to sand down if need be. SEM products are great, they...

Yea 8 mpg does ****, was a pretty slick looking truck though Lag is a killer, some refer to it as Foreplay though, but not the greatest on a daily driver and stuff. Having the available upgrades are definitely key, even if your not gonna use them all just knowing that your car is supported...
