nice to hear...so what do you think it is that cause some of the DC subs to tear up..this is for plugitin

i havnt been in the loop lately, but my guess would be people wanting too much out of them. Theyre good drivers, but theyre not god.

Incorrect.

The lvl 4 is a 2 slug motor rated at 1krms, the xl is a 3slug motor rated at 1500rms. Completely different motors and strength.

Since you stopped by.. What safe RMS am I aiming for a level 3 with 4 soft parts.. I heard 800 but I would like to hear it from you

800rms should be no problem in the proper box with a clean signal. Too often folks post I put this much power and it blew etc... never knowing how much true power and never once checking properly for a true clean signal.

The answer to your question about DC and this site. People hate Meade, DC uses Meades sight as its home forum therefore they Hate on DC. end of story

Thats what I said a few days ago when this started.. Why do you think nobody EVEN mentions acendent on here, even though they are nice drivers

Its the same box spec for the regular 3s I'm using now.. I can put the full power of the amp to them for a little while but not long enough

 

[thorshammer1 10+ year member]

Whats your current box size? Also if they are getting stinky chances are the signal is clipped either from the headunit, the amp, or both.

3.2 after displacement.. And it is a bit clipped after my juice gives out, it start going down hill quick. If I maintain voltage they are fine.. I still need to upgrade some electrical to keep it primed. I should have a 250A DC before the new subs get here

That is the only true statement Corey.

If we are talking basics here....every ferrite motor is basically the same as any other.

I dont know which post your talking about but I was refering to the $500 plus I was not expecting to drop on a alternator when I first got back into this hobby

Rob, not talking the grade of slugs talking the 1010 parts bro.

as i have said many times the se/sx motor is my fav little motor and can build them to handle 2000rms daily, some have said not possible but has been proven //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
