While we have two splers in here...can you answer a noob ? for me real quick? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
In db drag...say I have 1 run of 1/0 for power and ground then that go into a distros and 2 4ga power out as well as 2 4ga ground. Would that be 4 conducters or 2?

I would assume its 2 because I dunno how else I would hook up two amps //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif. Looking to mess around with street A just a bit //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif.

mt ported. see if you can tune it higher than 30hz, see if you can shorten the port up... use WINisd to get a guesstimate on the length. i would say like 40~45hz or so would be a good starting point.

i just got back from the shop today. 40 amp charge on the kinetiks overnight and hopefully all day tomrrow should get us goin.

box is not nearly done. quite temporary tbh - we have LOTS to do. but it makes a number. we prolly wont do that number. but it makes a number ;P

if i get the wood you want to assist me in a build?.ive got to drop off that 18"4HP box to mark anyways...he said he wanted it if i wasnt going to use it.

 
i have shit to do pretty much the rest of the week. got navy shit to do today [thurs], friday i gotta spackle my bedroom (yes i live with my parents until i ship off to the navy) and repaint that sucker, saturday i will be packing all my shit up in my basement (lots of shit) and sunday is the show.

so marc and i really cant even work on the van and its not even "ready" for sunday at this point in time.

i thought you said you already HAD a ported box for your MT?

i do..but it's not exactly an SPL box....im going to try and get some different plans tonight and see if i can get one built by then.

its not conductors for the power wire, its conductors for the speaker wire im pretty sure. so you cant be using like 4 amps on a quad 4 sub. but i could be wrong, we dont compete in db drag. im pretty sure its amp -> speaker conductors, not battery -> amp.

and king, (whats your name anyway? my name is andy)

all you gotta do is take the port in the box you have for the MT and make it shorter. how many cubes and whats the cross sectional area, ill give you what depth it should be if you give me that info.

Ah IC, pretty much only db drags around here so I don't really have a choice //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif. Thx for your your input at least //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif.

I went and checked again...This is dbdrags definition...makes me believe you are right.

" A conductor is a single wire (solid or stranded) that is used to carry electrical current. A traditional speaker wire consists of two conductors (one positive and one negative)."

Ithink I need to quit reading so late //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif.

do you have the T\S for that MT by chance? i dont know why but its not in my WINisd anymore //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

do you think you could unscrew the top and pop out one or two of those boards and make the port larger possibly?
