Hell yes that does look like it’s getting down. Had it on the meter yet? I’m still trying to break 155 sealed on the glass with mine which I’m only a tenth away . It’ll do 155.4 in the kick though. Need to get my 8” Aeros ordered already to swap out the 6’s

yeah it sucks on the meter

like 151s sealed, 152s with the driver window down

one of these days I need to clamp my amp and then adjust a new box and subs accordingly

yeah understandable. Last time I clamped mine it was 8500 watts out of both 5ks at .33. I have lots and lots of rise lol.

Pretty disappointed with the clamping of the 18k, only seeing around 11,000w max:

got plenty of other amps to swap though.

I just met with my builder and dropped off a down payment for new doors (2 12s, 1 horn, 1 tweet per door) and then also a new box, going with 4 15s this time:

and I've kept track of all the miles and fill ups I've done with this truck, whooooosshhh.

gotta find a new daily

you can see on the trend line where I added the 2nd alt, BFG tires, and bumper. MPG took a dump

spent 25% of the cost of the vehicle - on gas so far in 6 months of ownership

rising to 1.1 ohm at 49hz and only clamping 10579?! Were you dropping voltage pretty bad or does it just not do what it’s rated? I feel like for a 18k it should be able to at the very least put out 15-16k at 1ohm.

just a super overrated amp lol

dropping from 15.4v to 14.2v

swapped back to my Sundown subs and made the switch from Korean to all Brazilian amps

much smaller footprint, less wiring, easier to fit

my rise doubled, and my power stayed basically constant, while my dB rose

Since I got this vehicle, I guess I never tested the windshield wiper fluid

went to use it the other day, and nothing happened

took a look, and I was shooting juice all over the garage

I noticed that my battery was all soaked, and then found out the line had failed at a fitting

so grabbed some line and fixed 'er back up

as good as new

What app is that?

 

[Galandorian]

What app is that?

Which one?

The box is built in Sketchup
The SPL meter is the SSA APM2
The clamp numbers are from the SMD AMM-1
