150 on music or test tones? i cant wait to see how this plays out. i have seen some bad *** numbers on 1500-2000 rms set ups.

see now you screwed up my guess becasue AC is 3-5 db off of TL and some times more but never less

 

[Flastrongman 10+ year member]

yes I know, but this one is an exception. Like I said it meters consistently -4db lower then the TL. I've tested it on several cars right before they went on the TL.

Well, this was a busier day than I expected. Got her metered, a little disappointed with the first test. Playing Jeezy's Trap or Die did a steady 141.5 sealed on the dash. 143 with driver door open. I know they got more in them then that. I'm going to move the box around and seal it a little better and see if I can't get a little more. Those numbers are adding on the 4db loss of my AC meter, so these should be within .5db of the TL.

So the 143 was what you should be at on the TL? I dont believe that...I think your meter is fraudulant!! lol...a car with 2 Ascendent Havocs and a Alpine MRP-2000 did 143 at the last show I went to, and that was on a tone...and a legit install

 

[Flastrongman 10+ year member]

hahaa, I figured there would be some people that say it was bs. But yes those numbers are very close to the TL, if anything a little conservative. And the 143 was door open.

They are the RWC304's. I think I saw them for sale on a site for 99 brand new.

Not a bad score man.

did some messing around with my 12's box. I took the MB Quart's out and rounded all the edges on the box and sealed up around the speaker wire better. Also took out my C&D batt and put my kinetik 2400 in. I was planning on putting my MB Quarts back in, but I really wanted to hear these 2 Soundsplinter rl-p's I got. The quarts were very impressive for a cheap sub, but they were really struggling to take the SAZ-1500. Anyways, on to the results. Now keep in mind there are quite a few variables to take into account here. When I first metered the mb's, I had been driving around all day beating on them. Also, I did not try moving the box at all. I did not mess with box positioning today other than just moving it forward a few inches.

Playing Jeezy's trap or die( same song). Around the same temp today as well- 146db sealed on dash

Decent for 2 12's and 1500w on music. The Rl-p's crush the MB's on the lows as well. Plays 25hz quite nice. Pretty big gain. Could be a number of things or it could just be the MB's don't meter well
