Thors 09 Build Log

Sorry to hear man. I bet it was just one of those fluke situations.

Just think...after all the blown subs, busted boxes and now this broken amp, you're due for some great outcomes to reward the persistence.

It WILL happen!

Well no worries here!

Was contacted by Wilson and Steve and have a new amp being shipped today so that I have it for Sundays show!

Now thats Customer Service at its finest. You know international shipping is not cheap!

Brotha the Jackers would get Jacked! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Slightly bigger but pretty much 1/0. I have some Stinger 3/0 connectors coming that I will be splicing 2 1/0 wires into for both pos and neg.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

thats called efficiency

It's true:crap: didnt even play for 30 secs with output voltage at 35v and nominal impedance at 2ohm. Input voltage was at 13.8v I was just letting the amp warm up with some mild current when pop poof done:crying:
After tearing the car apart looking for a short or? which is what the protection light signified, I threw in the Lanzar on the same wires and played just fine.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

So Steves on the warranty coverage for me and it will be going to Texas to visit Chris at DBr for servicing

So after an emotional nightmare of a day I give my friend Don a call and tell him what happened and wouldn't ya know not only did he let me use 1 5k not 2 5k's but 3 5k's cause when ya go to a big show ya need a back up//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

1 Atomic 5k is back in the car on the same wiring as the Stetsom and is working just fine. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

On to the box update....didn't get to test on port length but I did do a lil song testing and with the 6 spiders and smaller enclosure subs move alot less.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif

Nice to see Stetsom still makes smoke machines.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

:\ The larger Stetsoms are kind of interesting, yet slightly disappointing. I see bus bars, which is a plus, but I also see TO-220 fets, single 1/0 inputs and small SMPS cores, it kind of make me sad inside when I think about all of this being in a 14kW amp.

Just wait, something awesome is on the way. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/up2something.gif.dd110ecf3ae4b76050d87598f2f8de7c.gif

So far I've only seen mine go up. On the other hand I have seen several SoundDigitals in a nice pretty puff of smoke:laugh: Including 2 16k's within the same week.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

So today I got the port wall sealed into the box and sealed the back. Also decided to do an extra back wall for strength.

Will seal around box tomorrow and have wiring in place for either 2 5ks or the Stetsom. Replcement will be here Thurs.

 

[Mr. Slate 10+ year member]

Every single Stetsom(5) that was shipped to New England went up in smoke.

 

[WOT]

Ive yet to hear of a Sound digital failure yet...

I'm a lil dissappointed but I'm veryvery pleased with the customer service. Wilson and Steve are Top Notch as well as Miss Andrea. My replacement will be here Thursday:veryhapp:
