    CSCStang (A++)

    I've been completely detached from the car audio hobby for the past year+ due to college and I stay busy / have very little free-time so I somehow forgot about this, but in case he's still active I figured y'all should know about my dealings with CSCStang for sure - you would be very hard...

    Hertz HSK165 active HELP

    http://www.hertzaudiovideo.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Hertz_HiEnergy_HSK165.pdf Bottom left of page. The HV 165 doesn't have its own tech sheet but all the info hertz provides is in that link. BTW I just texted you about something else.

    Well if you wire it directly to the amp + and the ground, it is no different than putting it up front in parallel with the battery, simply because the + and - of each battery are touching the same conductors (the power wire fed into the + input on the amplifier, and the - ground/chassis)

    Yeah I agree with you then. Now I'm remembering the context of the conversation of the sa-15's being under rated. I guess I'm a little biased because my sa-15 has seen over 1kw clamped but it wasn't for very long.

    Pretty sure you just wire the batt in the trunk directly to the sub amp back there. Should be even simpler than installing a batt up front. pos to pos, neg to ground, just like up front so it's in parallel with the other batt. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty positive it would be...

    I'm not sure if you understand this fully or not, but I just have to make sure you know. Sorry if I'm insulting your intelligence. To get a 1 ohm load you will need to get the sub in dual 2 ohm. Parallel will divide impedance of the 2 coils by the number of coils (2) (=1ohm final) and series...

    If you're going to wildly assert that the sa-15 was not meant to take over 600w, you're just going to lose credibility man. Jacob under rated them and it has been discussed ad nauseam. And I missed the post where OP said he was getting 2 FU 750's, if he did say that and that's where the 750x2...

    New to forums questions about audio setup!

    Not saying you're wrong, but gotgixers put 1400 to them for a while. Maybe that was like nominal or before rise but I doubt it... I put 2000 watts "before rise" to my sa-15 daily and it's been fine for a long time and it's generally considered to be inferior to the fu 750. I'm no expert though

    So much for not giving a woofer more than the manufacture recommends for power. Even you're suggesting that he do that, and in the same thread where you chastised me for it! The fact of the matter is both the SA-15 and the FU 750 can handle up to 1400w rms clamped on some frequencies. I would...

    New to forums questions about audio setup!

    I took the fact that he has stock electrical into account. He'd be fine with 1.8k. 900 watts or so after imp rise not a whole lot of power for a sub like that man

    New to forums questions about audio setup!

    The 1.8. These FU 750 subs, as well as the sa-15 which is generally inferior, can take 1.4kw CLAMPED, as I explained to you before in a post several pages back. I also explained how with impedance rise you'll usually be getting half power of what your amp is rated for anyway. So you could...

    New to forums questions about audio setup!

    Yeah but sometimes it's necessary and as long as the port faces back it isn't much of a problem. With an 18 he'll be able to get a lot of low end anyway especially tuned fairly low like 32 Hz

    New to forums questions about audio setup!

    Even the best factory systems won't be running more than about 60w rms total haha. Usually way less. I have the top excelon model and I like it, but the pioneer 80prs is miles better and if I could go back Id get it. Definitely run active. The excelon I have is active capable, but I think it's...

    I would've said to get a Brazilian amp (taramps, stetsom, prv audio, banda amps) until I got one... I don't like mine but I think mine may be defective. It's great except for the crossover. Brazilians run on full bridge topology which doesn't require high current and you can get insane power for...

    New to forums questions about audio setup!

    For the 750, a 1500 watt amp would be perfect, just set the gain so there is no clipping. I don't have any experience with the 1800 but if you have stock electrical you might as well go with the 750 since you won't be able to use more than 1500 watts or so anyway. If you are upgrading electrical...

    New to forums questions about audio setup!

    Compared to what you had anyway, 1 FU 12 in the proper ported enclosure will **** near rip your car in half. A 15 on 1000 watts or so can be so loud you can feel the pressure in the car making it difficult to breathe. Lungs vibrating hard. Eye sockets vibrating so hard your vision is blurred...

    Well, IF there is absolutely no way in hell you're fitting a box that was 1.75x the size of the last one, then you can't fit an optimal box for 2 12's in your trunk. You'll have to check the recommended airspace of the subs you're going to buy, and get someone like cscstang to build the box and...

    Help, sub crossover problems

    Bump. Could my hd4000 be fake? Box was pretty banged up looking and worn to bits but the amp looks as legit as anything. The upper midbass frequencies being emitted by the sub are dragging my stage backward and it is unacceptable to me but I have no idea what is going on. And why the f do the...

    Which batteries? And Brazilian amp question

    I doubt anyone can do that. Well maybe, but I doubt it. But what they can do is make a very reasonable assumption: if the volume is less than it was on a 1000w amp that does 1100w at nominal impedance before impedance rise, power is certainly going to be under 1500 watts

    Which batteries? And Brazilian amp question

    Aliens. That's how I'm going to do it. I'll contact aliens... The fvcking volume knob lol. Along with the level control on the amp, head unit, and remote knob... But really it sin't hard for me to tell if I'm approaching 1500 watts. If it's less loud than my other amp, it's clearly below 1500w

    Which batteries? And Brazilian amp question

    You didn't read the whole thing man. "will be keeping the power under 1500w" That's from the first post. So, why would YOU think that I would think the situation would be better with a 4k amp? I was just wondering if small voltage drops from 1-1.5kw would kill this amp. I got an optima yellow...

    Help, sub crossover problems

    All my crossovers have always worked perfectly fine. Today I swapped my kicker zx1000.1 out to hook a taramps hd4000 2 ohm up. My head unit crossover was set to "through" whenI had the zx1000.1 because the amp x-over was pretty good. Tried the same thing with this and no matter what it lets...

    Soft Dome or Super Tweeter?

    Please tell me you haven't bought tweets yet. If not, definitely buy these: The Madisound Speaker Store Only consider the ring radiator tweeters if you're definitely mounting exactly on axis, pointing them BOTH straight at you. The seas neo's are one of the most popular tweeters on diyma. I...

    Unique 4 way active front stage idea

    We were listening to some tones from 10k and up, I could hear up to 18 kHz. One girl could hear 20 kHz. If the speakers were very high quality who knows maybe I could've heard higher frequencies. But yeah, 18 kHz definitely sounded like something you would not normally hear in music. But I've...

    That loud "shhhhh" sound when you're at a concert or the volume is up really loud is a combination of frequencies from 10-16 kHz

    Which batteries? And Brazilian amp question

    Did you even read the post? I made it clear the problems I currently have with my zx1000.1 have nothing to do with loudness. Gain will be super low and I mainly listen to rock and electronic right now so super loud isn't a huge priority. I was just wondering if Brazilians are so fragile, that...

    Which batteries? And Brazilian amp question

    I'll be replacing the battery first since that's financially possible right now. So Duracell and optima would be good choices I assume? And I've heard optima red has better 5 second burst and yellow is better for sustained power so I would assume a yellow would be the best to get? Assuming...

    Which batteries? And Brazilian amp question

    They make AB mono amps? It has nothing to do with class D. It's this particular model. S/N is downright pitiful at like 60 dB, I'm not kidding it's that low... I've used other class D's and they work fine. I even have a class d full range that sounds pretty much perfect. What are some good value...

  38. Jakerrr

    Which batteries? And Brazilian amp question

    4k? More like 1000. Obviously the gain will be all the way down. I'm just wondering if voltage drop will destroy the thing because I get drops with 1000w right now.

    Unique 4 way active front stage idea

    This would be a normal 3 way except for one thing. Considering 4 way with another ppi p900.4, but with some high quality super tweeters just for some of the top octave, high passed at 9-12 kHz minimum. Never seen that done before but the massive amount of extra sensitivity in the top octave...

    Which batteries? And Brazilian amp question

    I have the Taramp's HD 4000 2 ohm collecting dust and would like to hook it up to replace my zx1000.1. The zx has too much distortion for my liking and it had considerable delay in my old system (different car with all different HU, speakers, etc), as well as my current system. DTA on my HU...
