Who wants pics? I finally gave in

Here's pics of the single 15" install that I used at MECA finals this year.

Now stop bothering me asking for pics! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif I'm looking your way all you n00bx's who PM me.

Did some new MECA testing today. Meter at the driver's headrest, passenger door open.

And this is what it did to my driver's mirror

My note dropped down to 42 hz. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

And last but not least, the long awaited pics of the box

I'm not sure why everyone wanted pics, it's not like you can copy this box from these pics and get similar results anyways. But hey, I got bothered enough over them so I may as well just post them myself. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

it's ugly.

and loud. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Come on, don't you know that the uglier the install, the more potential to get loud?

It now peaks at 42 hz. Don't know what it's "tuned" to.

That type-r still lives on. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif Not sure on actual power, but I would say around 2000 watts or so REAL power.

Last question, I promise, have you ever run the ZX at .5? If so, pm me...I need to know what it takes...

We have SLOWLY rolled up a zx2500 at .5 ohm. It is REAL picky at that ohm load. It is a 2 ohm rated amp, so running it at .5 ohm isn't something I would recommend.

My teammate runs his at .7 daily and really doesn't have any issues unless he pushes it hard.

****...I wanted the kicker cause its cheaper but I guess AB VFL it is...I wanted to do 2ohms daily and .5 burp.

You COULD burp it at .5, but you have to do it pretty slowly. And you'll need a pretty good electrical system to keep up with it at that load. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Planning on a 280A alt and 3 Kinetic HC2400's...one under the hood and 2 in the back...

I think it is possible to run it at .5 on that setup. I can't make any guarantees though.

You would be better off with an amp that you KNOW will run at .5

It'll prolly pop in and out of protect @.5ohms

Thats what I was thinking...the VFL 200.1 is about the same and would do the 2/.5 option well. Plus Bthnfan has one for $600 shipped!

Most likely. Thats why you gotta roll it up real slow and get the coils warmed up. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I was having issues with it running at 1 ohm today until the sub got warmed up.
