Holy run-on sentence batman.

x2... Hardcore run on sentence.

I was gonna say nice score too, until i saw the AC mic, not a bad score but until u get on the TL its kinda void. Also first link didn't work either.

I seen a drop of 5 decibels going from ac to termlab.

As far as tuning goes pull out the box you have now and throw in a single sub in a sealed box and meter tones to see what you rig's frequency is. Then play around with about 5 or 6 hertz lower for spl. May or may not sound like ass but with good box and port size it will be loud.

Just because its sealed doesn't mean its getting the RF of the vehicle. Its still getting it on the box. It will take multiple sealed boxes at different sizes to see what the vehicles resonant frequency is.

if it's the AC190 then it could be VERY close. We metered on an AC a few weeks ago and then on a TL and the AC was .1 higher and the TL was after numerous demo's, so they might have been exact on fully charged batts...

But I've heard the 160 is WAY off and the local comp this weekend is using one, so I expect to break 150 LOL

I take it back then just build another box 5 hertz higher and go for broke.

1. You fail at spelling.

2. You shouldn't, he can probably do that all day. Congrats, you can do what most of the people on this forum can do by running 148+ with a few 10's/12's. He also did it at 35 hz. And I would put money on it that he could do that all day.
