He now knows that his current battery set up is a hazard. If he is involved in an accident or causes any type of personal injury as a result of not installing the proper battery in a proper/safe location, he is now liable and negligent. He can be sued by anyone that suffers a loss or injury as a res...

Oh OK... I missed that... and yeah as far as overall safety goes that would be the way to go, but many have had luck mounting standard batteries in the trunk... You just HAVE TO MAKE SURE IT VENTS OUTSIDE. The key word in your sentance was "luck." Do it right. Go sealed or put it in the b...

[quote="cargodz"]You got that the wrong way around Rich :) An extra $50 will get you a sealed gel battery, so it doesn't explode in your face ] No, I got it right. He said that he would get a gel cell if it was under $100. Gel cell's are typically around $150. Since gel cell's aren't under...

I had the same experience with Stereorama downing my internet purchase as well. He (the fat guy that's been there forever) tried his hardest to push the JL components at me. Yeah, like they are sooo much better than Dynaudio components. I must say that they have done some incredible installs and hav...

i didnt go with a gel cell because i cant afford it.. if i could find a good one for under a $100 then id be good to go. So, let me make sure I understand this. For under $100 you will get a gel cell battery. For $150 you will not get a gel cell battery. What will that $50 really matter to you when...

SPL isn't the main priority at all. I just want to have a good "slam" factor for when I get the itch. The ports will be in the rear deck aimed up at the rear window, just like the subs. If I had the additional time to be without my car, it was an idea to put an actuator on the ports to ope...

The 1w/m measurement is constant. It's not going to change at different frequencies. If you are looking for an SPL measurement, the only way to get it is to build and test. No other way. Ok..here exactly what I am looking for. I would like to know the SPL for the given frequencies with 400 watts of...

Ok...last change..I promise..lol.. I am going with a ported encloser at 1.5cu.ft. per driver. The output was SUBSTANTIALLY higher vs sealed. The spec sheet showed a whopping 7db louder (115db vs 108db) at 40hz ported over sealed with the same power. There will be a 30 hz subsonic filter. It's 3db do...
