Dunno - didn't notice that myself. Normally it runs down to zero even if the competitor is done.

I don't know. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif I didn't even notice til you said something. We do the regular 30sec runs. Something must have happened with their computer on that run.

Paul also hit a 155 at the big Meca event in TN yesterday and a 130.5 in drive by.

Im not doubting you guys at all, Im sure that setup is very capable of the scores. I was just curious, didnt know if they stopped the time for any reason.

Our DBdrag mics freeze every once in a while too, really sucks for bassrace

So that's basically 2 500.1s @ 1.3 vs 2 3500s at what ohm?

Did you wire em lower to gain or what?

AB 1000.1 @ 1.33 per side

SAZ-3500s @ 0.33 per amp

The AB 1000.1 protected at 125 dB at the 0.33 load -- not usable there at all.

The 3500s handle it fine even on music so for Paul he was around 2 dB louder since he could wire them down lower than he could his 1000.1

Gotcha. Badass.

Yeh my 500.1 didn't really like .5 daily sometimes, it protected a bunch.

I got mine from a local specialty store :

im pretty sure his drivers door was pretty phucked already and the hatch was repaired before also.that ab 1000.1 could handle those loads if he had better electrical i do believe.i think he still has cca 1/0 cable run from the front.i keep tellin him to get rid of it....

Electrical had nothing to do w/ the protection -- it protected at probably around 100 watts (125 dB). The protect circuit simply would not allow it to run that load whatsoever. Two huge 120+ pound batteries were about 12 inches of cable away from the amp as well for that matter //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I think the amp board is capable of it but the protect circuit is just set in such a manner that it won't allow it. Regardless -- the 1000.1 simply wasn't the right fit for this application.

Sounds good //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif He seems to be quite happy w/ the setup now!

Wooden distribution blocks add the dBeez *laughs*
In all seriousness if I had the supplies I'd of liked to have seen brass threaded rod speaker termination like I use on my boxes - but I didn't have the supplies or the time :

I gained 0.3 dB doing that vs. taking them out of the port.

how about, or why not just run the wire direct through a small hole and caulk it?
