A good question on the RCA cables because I have changed them. Before I was using streetwires (ZN5 I think) and now I'm using kicker RCAs. In that scenario, what should the voltage look like at the amp's outputs?

Orion XTRPro 10" in 1.5 ft^2 sealed (4 ohm) Polk SR 12" in 1.5 ft^2 sealed (2 ohm) Audiopulse Axis 15" in 4.5 ft^2 sealed (1 ohm)

One of them was a reinstall, yes. The other two had never been in that car before.

Used an iPod shuffle at full volume and it was pretty much the same. I might try some other sources once I get it set up again with the new wiring.

So my engine idle voltage was hovering fine around 13.8 volts. I have some 0 gauge cable, so I'm going to reinstall all the power cable, clean off the battery terminals, etc. I also have this ground terminal on the way. I should have 0 gauge installed anyway so I figured this was the logical...

I had that infinity 1600a... it was solid for sure.

Why would the fuse matter unless it blows? I have 4 gauge all the way through.

So I'm kind of stumped. A couple weeks ago I installed my amp and subwoofer after a long hiatus. I put my Cadence amp back with my Polk SR. The amp is rated around 800w RMS at 2 ohms I believe. Long story short, I had to turn the gain up all the way for it to match my music. Actually at that...

Regarding the cabin gain curve, I intend on measuring that once I find my mic/Firebox, hopefully this weekend. When I do, I'll post the graphs. It will be a frequency sweep tone (maybe I'll try pink noise too), with a plain old FFT done on the raw recorded file in MATLAB. Then possibly...

I might just do that. All that would need to be done would be to cut a couple more pieces that need to be longer, and one needs to be shorter. I have extra board left anyway. IIRC, it would have been ~4.1 cubic feet after displacement, tuned at just under 23 Hz. The way it's taped up now, I...

Hey this calculator is giving a similar response. If the specs are close to what your sub's are, then that thing can live and be happy in a real tiny box. ~0.2 cubic feet or ~5.6 liters

Then put it in a sealed enclosure critically damped. If the T/S specs listed for that subwoofer are pretty close to your actual one, it is one of the rare cases i've seen where in a normal sized box your QTC will actually be below .5. According to this calculator, 0.21 cubic feet would do the...

Original design. Calculated some of the dimensions wrong.

OK. So what would the formula be from there?

Two of these would do, but the company doesn't seem to make angled extensions for them, so they'd have to protrude out of the box significantly at 6 feet, but it might help for prototyping
