What sort of numbers are competitive in those formats?.. IDK sh*t about classes or what you can run to be in a certain class... I've got 2 12's, am about 2-3" above window line, 3 batteries and 2 sub amps with a third for highs... USACi would classify that as ????
They sound like cone area is not a class factor anymore and power is more the guideline... Couldn't somebody show up with 6 12" for instance in 0-3500?.. 3 15's?... etc... I'll just look at the USACi site like I should do anyways... I haven't competed since 1998 but this box is sounding fairly good and slightly painful... I'm not going to predict any number but I believe you... you were right before... I'm sure they have the classes and requirements all cut and dry in a rulebook... LOL!
IIRC USACi is a chart where both power and cone area is taken into account. Cone area doesn't usually win in and of itself because you still have limits on height of box and it must stay in the cargo area. Also crowding a box into the cargo area often robs you of the ability to move it around to find some more tenths. It comes to a point where the cars that get loud easily have the big edge, cone area notwithstanding.
I continually ask people why they always insist on whale-song tuning these days, especially if they plan to play actual music played on instruments.
Painful lmao //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif
Ok... poor choice of words on a forum with some members that probably demo at 154+...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/slap.gif.87520e8ca8e90076ac30e777c0de5331.gif... I could and should have said slightly louder... ok?
I like that... " Whale song tuning"... LOL!... that does make a good point... I had originally planned on Sundown X's at 30 hz next year, but IDK... maybe a larger range of bass will serve... Heck... I only took a quick listen yesterday and the "burp" box did not sound ALL bad... got me thinking, that's for sure...
Pressure and pain are two different things. Output should not be painful. At least not in sub bass
Perfect!!
Then you should be tuned to the low 40s to high 30s from the start and never anywhere under 36.
Nah. That's mostly what I listen to and the old DD setup destroyed Manson. But it did destroy everything. Tuning low gives you a flatter curve. Just loses a bit of output.
