I always wondered what happened to that...

The truck wasn't stable enough to withstand any significant output. At least not enough to substantiate its size. Couldn't get low enough. They changed the rules in SPL events since then, making the truck illegal. So, they didn't have any motivation to put any further effort into it. It's still sitting up until the day someone throws more money at the project (at which time it will awaken to reek havok on the... ]http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b301/ ... truck1.gif[/url]

rumor has it that Audiobahn and MTX want to get the rights to Ascendant's new Assassin subwoofer's design tech so they can combine it with the Jackhammer from MTX to make a really big, heavy, loud sub.. they're naming it the JackAss.

OK, that's just beyond a bad joke.

I've had my own "off the wall" SPL project that I had to put down a couple years ago...

...so I'm not going to be criticizing anyone with that one there.
Regardless, even if I got mine complete, it still wouldn't have a chance of blowing a cube van apart... that's just amazing, and for the glory, bragging rights alone (I mean come on - setting a new world record, using a piece of equipment you built yourself from scratch - THAT is accomplishment, in my book!!!)... hopefully Mark can be a convincing fellow! :happy048:

oh I just like poking fun at audiobahn, and at MTX for that jackhammer.. it's just too easy though.
I can appreciate SPL vehicles for the engineering that goes into the good ones, but beyond that, I have little interest in SPL competitions. I guess I'm outgrowing a lot of the "mine is bigger than yours" throwdowns.. or I just limit it to my car's quarter-mile performance these days and leave the stereo bragging to others. I find music as more of an emotionally oriented experience and enjoy it purely for the music.. now feeling that music from time to time, there's nothing wrong with that.

geolemon, none of your pics work on your page. Was looking forward to seeing what you had done.

Ah, Bart's been messing with the server.
I'll have to see what the heck he did... I couldn't even get onto it.

Let's see.. I think I had a backup of that page somewhere...

If it makes you feel any better, Matt Overpeck is at Audiobahn now. He's the guy that singlehandedly destroyed Audiomobile by being an ass, maybe he'll repeat history
