I hate when kids call the solo baric "Kicker Squares"

side note: Alpine CDA9851 rocks! $25 aux. input cable sucks though (the price that is)

I hate when people who think they know car audio(like dnewma04) Don't realize that the Cerwin Vega Stroker was the world greatest subwoofer....

Actually that's how my goat child was born. I call him Tangu the goat boy. He likes to eat cans, rape neighborhood dogs, and then kill them... not always in that order though...

lol... i was just thinking the other day while reading the elemental thread that we haven't heard about strokers in a while!

Yeah you like reading all about the "strokers" don't you?
Posted By: fordsvt98 Re: I hate when.... - 03/01/06 04:56 AM
The stroker was back in those napoleon days too. 1 L7 12" bangs ridiculously loud with 600 watts. my 3rd brake light is messed up. recommend playing the "THX" theme from movies. then some clips from jurrasic park.

I agree...

But on a side note, I used to have a 15" L7 in my blazer and hit 151db with 800 watts powered by my Directed 1100D amp...Miss that thing!

agreed, I am running 1500 watts RMS people, that means ALL THE TIME, over 3000 watt max, the mtx 1501D is a beast, it nominally pulls about 150 amps and will kill the car if I didn't have the batcap 400. never thought 3 tens could be so mean(infinity kappa perfects)

why am I an idiot. yes it pulls 150 amps at max power, yes I have a massive cap. the alternator is going out anyway so I'm just going to get the HO 170 amp alternator.

just your whole statement leads me to believe you know nothing!!!

I have installed many mnay 1501d's and each one had its own batt but by no means does it

ok, you got me, I should have put, is able to run at 1500 watts nominally all the time, and yes it does put that power out, I'm running into a 1.62 ohm load and it DOES put out a TESTED 1542 rms at 14.4 volts. But you should know all this since of course you know about the 1501d since you have installed them. I have one, have had 3 of them, I know what they do

Does this mean my Sony X-plod for sale in the NE Classifieds doesn't REALLY put 1000 watts out? What if I put in a 2nd battery? Does this mean I should drop the price?




















Just Kidding.

once again, agreed, although 12 8 inch speakers would kick soooooo hard, not too good for sub bass though, probobly below 80-100hz their freq. response is going to drop. although with 12 of them you never know... I have 3 tens and it pounds way hard, never judge till you hear.

but yeah dont call me an idiot for quoting both tested power output and factory specs, which btw states that the rms power is 1500w rms & btw states that the amp can and will pull up to 150 amps.
Posted By: Honkeytonk Monkey Re: I hate when.... - 03/01/06 07:06 PM
I hate the terms "pound" "beat" "slam" "Boom" etc... used in reference to how loud people think thier stuff is...

"Those type Rs SLAM!"

Seriously half the time I think the words are louder than the systems.

Bla bla bla... which btw WHO GIVES A [censored]!!!

1500 wrms at what impedence? etc etc.. WTFC's I used to have 2 Soundstream 10.0's at a 1/4ohm load anyone care? NOPE

i also have 8" subs in my doors, care? nope
and there is no Stroker 8" or 8' for that matter either.

Now I'm confused as to what your calling bs on, the fact that I get the rated power out of my amp or what?? I dunno, I'm not getting all angry and telling you that your stuff does not preform as you say it does, I made a farking statement about how I dislike when people rate their stuff by their supposed max power. what are you getting so wriled up about here???

Who calling BS.. me calling BS? I just did that because his typo made it look like he was using 8 foot diameter speakers. Just mocking steeda on his typing.. = Sarcasm..

Welcome to the CEG by the way.. What Steeda is saying is that there are a few of us on here that know what we're talking about.. And a few will put you in your place for misrepresentation or bs.

Dnewman = this guy eats, drinks, sleeps and poops audio.
SoundQSVT = his national and world competion championships speak for themselves
Honkeytonk = awesome guy. mixes his humor with good cold hard knowledge
MXracer = another guy who knows his stuff
SteedaSVT former MECP installer.. now washed up audio junkie.
Carpepoon =(me) started competing back in 1997. now Im a Special investigator/stereo specialist (work). I spend my days at work busting people for claiming audio stuff they never really had.

Posted By: dnewma04_dup1 Re: I hate when.... - 03/01/06 10:54 PM
MacChicken,

I think your wording was the issue. Your system may be capable of drawing 150A "continuously" for a few seconds with the amps gains set to 100% clipping using sine waves as the audio signal. Set the gains properly and play music and you won't approach 150A continuous draw...ever.

Does her saturn redline redline just before it hits the peak or the powerband? I remember the gearing was a major issue with them.

Her Saturn is quicker. Also rides like a skateboard.

No that's not what I meant, I meant the Redline Ion I drove was a pretty harsh ride. Did handle quite splendidly though but I'd hate taking a really long trip in it. How's the ion coming along btw?

The ION is actually doing great. it doesn't ride very harsh. In fact, it rides nicely. The ION has also given me no problems what so ever for the past. year and a half since I've got it? Really easy maintenance, and again.. No dents.

I love the way the console is in the middle. made it extremely easy to mount tweeters up on the dash. I'll be upgrading soon though.. either the Hiquphon OWII's or OW4's. the OW4 matches my interior nicely. The rear battery is also a plus, when running wires. Did i put pics up of the system already?
