How long will it last?

I just love it when someone asks for a design/recommendations and actually follows the plans.

It's just amazing when that happens, and... voila!.. it turns out well.

I love seeing an enclosure built exactly according to plan, that's not always the case tho... believe me.

Side note... my BL-18 is being built I'm informed... and its killing me waiting.

looks like one of them high roller woofers...

I had a mate who had one, was feeding it 2K. That's an awesome subwoofer but agree, too pricey for me :uhoh:

Jeez... at least I feel informed

Fwiw... I'm learning patience, hope its worth it.

It's like the Dominos Pizza tracker for subwoofers lol

We will see if this lasts in there... the Bl-18v3d2 arrived this morning.

Packed up nice and all...

JK... shameful ^^^^

I'm hopeful that it is worth the wait. I only just wired it up and checked to see it plays as it's a super quiet neighborhood around here and I really don't want to meet the Sherriff's boys... there's a small substation 200yd away

It makes the Re Sx-18 look a little anemic let me say, and that sub did fairly well...  :wow:

26 days overall or 19 business days with 2 day weekends by my reckoning since the March 31 order date, and finally it's in it's "new/temporary?" home... lol

 

Now I gotta loosen this thing up a bit, it's just a little stiff... I'll do my best...

Well just look at that.  They must have had some engineers in the packing and shipping department.

I tried finding the system limit a second ago and found my electrical limit instead (same thing)... duh! The sub loves the power, until it runs out. The amp is starving after 5sec or so if I roll up the volume slowly. But help is on the way... I just dropped another little pile

What was I thinking?.. a single run of 0ga front to rear, big 3, 250A alt and single starting Agm for 3K? At least this sub survives my abuse and is putting out a definite gain as is...

1 extra... I wanted a bit more control and no extra cooling... I'm really not into serious long demos.
