[QUOTE="djdilliodon!, post: 8793023, member: 684299"] The new smart 5k showed up late today but I got it in! First thing I noticed is the fan is always on which wasn’t the case on the first one! The first one I stopped half way during my ride to check it and no fans where on. This one the fans are on all the time and it keeps it nice and cool even after an hour of me pounding away! I actually finally bounced it off the clipping light! These 15’s blur your vision and rattle the snot out of your brain lol. The low notes are absolutely violent! The windshield moves like a sub cone lol. These things are stupid clean ported no matter what I played on them. No bs these can definitely pass the sq test for any picky listener and believe me I’ve always been an SQ guy first! I’m gonna run this version this season and next season I may do a pair on Ti frames with a winding width bump up to push xmax to 40mm one way mathematically calculated. I’ll also do an upgraded motor which adds about 20 pounds of weight to the subs and will use the original cones I wanted to. They are heavier which will trade off some efficiency but with this power they will still be perfect! I only managed to get the dust caps warm to the touch. The cdt’s sound amazing and while the phase plugs did get warm, they are taking 1200w rms like a champ! Tomorrow I’ll get some videos so stay tuned 😈. I have no choice to take the videos with windows down and sunroof open. It flexes way to much if I leave everything closed.
