This camera ****ing blows dick!!! It just wont pick up any flex no matter how much it is. Its sooo ****ing hard to get it to focus....... oh well //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

 
Hmmm, from the vids it seems like you're not giving it enough powa.
The camera sucks balls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/furious.gif.fc81ca146dbff91fede3ed290dbc4f4c.gif

If you saw this thing in person you would understand that it does not 'need' more power. It about reaches it limits in excursion if I start playing below tuning. I guess its not clear in any of the videos but it is wangin, lots of excursion. The front window is noticably flexing, enough to catch your attention at a glance. The doors are ******* in and out, my door panels are moving everywhere, and everything in the car is really solid, nothing in these cars is 'loosly' connected and for how solid it is the flex is pretty ridiculous for having just one woofer.

Ive never seen a thunderbird/cougar/mark viii flex as much as this one.

However, the sub will handle more power daily as long as I dont play below tuning too far and drop the size of the enclosure.

This sub is sitting in just over 8 cubic feet of enclosure with a 100 sq in port recieving 2500-2900wrms......its getting plenty of power at the moment and moving a tid bit of air.

Does anyone want to see another hair trick perhaps?

Oh, aight. It just looked like it was getting very little excursion in the video. It wouldn't make sense that a KX2500.1 wouldn't push it really well. The install is great btw //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsup.gif.3287b36ca96645a13a43aff531f37f02.gif. If I ever do an 18 or 2 in a trunk car again, that's exactly how I'll do it. I don't like not having visibility with a wall. Your design seems to be the only smart way to have an 18 in a car.

Have you gotten it metered?
