Thors 09 Build Log

So you had copper coils the whole time? I was woundering if the copper takes the power well.

I've had copper coils up until I got my first recone for the HDC's. The copper coils take the power just fine. I've only had one set get hot and burn coil once and that was on a fubard and repaired HDC that I was trying to kill ( find its limits)//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

The only thing I would say to watch out for is the spider ring popping off on the copper HDC's. Other than that the only advantage I see to using Aluminum is less wieght. Both will and have handled the same power.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

 
Recones will be done and in for next weekends show. Will be breaking them in with a 25hz tone at low volume for about an hr. sat. and of course bumping to the show Sun.

 
Hey Rob. You gonna let me know how my recone goes?

Looking forward to this Sunday. I'm hoping Saturday is nice to get the first part of my soundproofing done.

 
How does your voltage do with only 3 batts on 2 5K???
It does really well actually. At 2k rpms I rarely drop below 13v at 1ohm. .25 is a whole different animal. Very taxing, high 11's low 12's.

I will post pics of your recone process. So far I've done 10's, 12's and soon to be 15's. LOL All I gotta do is find an 18 that needs reconing to have done the whold hdc line. LOL

I will have my recones done Friday night and in Sat. just in time for Sundays show. See ya then Dave.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

 
Don't know yet. LOL I do know I'll be taking it easy at that show so I can get them broke in properly. This last set was damaged before I put the 2nd 5k in. I'm hoping not to repeat that mistake again.. LOL
