Definitely not the cheapest or low quality.  If specifications are to be believed, the Sound Stream has a better Signal to noise ratio of 104db, compared to "greater than 80" of the SQ.    There are a few other specs that may be considered better. https://soundqubed.com/product/s1-2250/...

Thank  you for the suggestions! Bigblank69,  I really appreciate the budget gem or budget bust videos you make!  I bet it takes a good amount of time to test the amps and edit the videos.  Thanks to those dyno videos I ended up buying the Soundstream T1.4000DL.  I happen to have the Tarantula...

Its been several years since I have posted anything here, so lets see how this goes. :) Just like the title says, I'm looking for an amp that puts out approximately 2000 watts RMS @ 1 Ohm. Its for a Massive Audio Hippo 122 sub.   I currently have a MB Quart Discus 1500.1 that has a cap that is...

I can see its fall and people hang their feet out in St Louis......seems like a legit ad. Still need to follow the rules with username/date, etc.

More cone area for the same power level will almost always gain more overall. Example: you could build a 4th order with a very narrow band that would have similar output to the Two 12's. However, the two 12's would have a flatter overall curve/better SQ, for the same output at peak freq...

Also turn off the bass boost and set your EQ flat on your head unit. 80hz LPF is a good starting point, but you may need to bump it up or down to get the right blending of the sub to your comps. It may help, but I think Papermaker has the best answer.

Sorry, I've been really busy at work and haven't had much time to post.... Yes, technically it would help to wire out of phase (on the rear fill), but that is not a real "solution" to the problem. The sound waves bouncing from the back of the vehicle to the front of the vehicle will have a...

I'm confused as to why you would want such huge speakers going into a "rear dash"? Unless you mean one that faces out the back when you open the rear hatch, for demos, parties, etc? If you have that much sound coming from the back to the front, it will cause some serious cancellation and sound...

You will probably be drawing over 400A at full tilt, so the stock alt will not keep up. After the big 3, etc. I would be checking my voltage at the amp to make sure it doesn't dip below ~13.5V. Some volt meters are slow to react, so this isn't always a good indicator that you are dipping too...

SOME Youtube videos are really clipped to hell. It is obvious just listening through headphones or a normal system. Also, it is better if they are 480P or higher. Some tracks sound garbled at lower bitrates. Most of the ones I have found by people who boost songs on the reg have pretty...

That was a real D-bag move to rain on someone's ad with your opinion of his asking price. I also agree that it is sad that people want to **** on anyone who makes a buck in this day and age. I rarely sell ANYTHING at a loss/less than I paid. Anyone who has a retail sales and service business...

The Dayton HO 10's do great in a small sealed box. I have one in approx .7 cf sealed box and it has great response/SQ.

If you pay a lot of money in taxes by claiming 0 on a 1040EZ, you will get a fatter refund. However, the money is better kept in your pocket or bank/investments, making you money instead of the IRS. If you claim 1 or 2, you will pay less in taxes and have more money in your pocket. If you...

Funny how it took 7 posts for someone to finally ask how many watts. Once we know what the power requirements are, then you can start saying he needs $200 batteries and an upgraded alt.

Play a test tone and set your O-scope to AC voltage. You can do the same with a DMM, but not as accurate.
