What kind of car/equipment?

Was using a Pioneer 40wrms amp that I usually have on my door speakers and 2 MTX Road Thunder 10s in a horrible box that moved as much as the subs. I think the front baffle was 3 pieces that were duct taped to fill the gaps. [/QUOTE]Off of only 40w rms? That's not too bad at all.

You said you're waiting to get an amp back, what amp is that?

An Orion HCCA 275R. Once I get that I'll be using one of my RE HC 12s too.

I was actually thinking of talking to you to see if I could come down and rent your termlab for a bit once I get my amp back and a proper box built. It's only a 45 min. drive from my place, so it's not too far. [/QUOTE]that wouldnt be a problem at all...just gotta let me know when [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hey Peter which amp did you use?

I used one of Chris Cecco's amps just to test it out... using the same amp I am now upto 154.07db

your amp was in Chris Sames Buick Regal...the one I told you about that had 8 12's and couldnt hit over 147db..so I stripped it down overnight and rebuilt it using only 4 12's and got it upto 152.8db @1/2 ohm..but sometimes it kicks into protection dunno why yet at the show it kept goin into protection and only hit 151.7db...still not bad for 1 amp and an overnight job... the sides of the box were somewhat sealed using rags and whatever else we could find [/QUOTE]I would say that is a great score. Good job. I wasn't aware that the amps had any protection in them. I thought I took it out. Let me know what I can do to help out. [/QUOTE]not sure yet..I know we've got 6 bigass batteries in there and the voltage is holding...maybe not enough impedance rise to run the amp at 0.5 ohm...gotta do more testing today...Ive only tested SPL and voltage ...not actuall output in that system

Crap, looks like I missed a good show, with the cops and all. Anyway, I've been without any wheels for couple of months.

Hey Mta Neon - Guess what I got (for a car that is) - might have to change my nick to Mta Neon 2.
