Thanks as always for the kind words gents.

That looks very loud for a pair of tens that can play music!!!

 

[thorshammer1 10+ year member]

Thanks!

Best to date playing music is 148.6. I'm hoping to be in the 149.9 bassrace class with my lil monsters. LOL

i envy you.. i dont understand y i cant get atleast a 145.. you think 145 is a hard number for my 3512 on like 1k for wattage?

yes 145 with one 12 legal and a "1000" watt amp would be hard. Not downing the us amps but after your impedence rises I bet you arent even seeing 500 real watts.

ya your prob right.. i need a new amp //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Agreed. I have seen setups get up there with one 12. My closest competitor last yr ran 1 12 and 3k and was able to get close to if not break a 148 but he built several boxes and it was only for burps.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Alright lets get this moving along some.

Pics of tearing apart rear deck for more deadening.

The 6x9's broke thier mounts and were banging up and down releasing precious db's

The biggest killer of them all! Too much pressure blew a hole in the Dynamat. DB Killer for sure!!

Lots of folks take there rear sound stage out to open up air travel. I want to prevent ANY air getting back into the trunk.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

Spent a good part of the day sealing that back up

My chair

Tools of mass destruction!

 

[sikcavy 10+ year member]

which amp do you guys reccomend that will get me in the 48's? My sub is dual 1.4's

 

[thorshammer1 10+ year member]

And pics of the final outcome

 

[thorshammer1 10+ year member]

All done

Gave it a quick test run and she's all good for now!

Unfortunately there is no way to tell you for sure this is what you need. When I started this build last yr. I bought the 5k. With a pr. of 12's I could only break a 141. Most of which was due to box design.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Then I bought the 10's and was given a box to work with. 143+

Then I built another box using the current one I had to go off of. 145+

Changed impedance 147+

Put in a floor and sealed it 149+

Do ya kind of see what I'm getting at. It just takes time! There is no guarantee that any one set up is gonna give you high numbers. You have to learn your vehicle and feed off what it gives ya.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif
