Thought you guys might want to see what I was up to the last few weeks while being absent from here....

That looks really good man....but Holy Sh*t thats one big amp!! What is that and what kinda power does it put out?

I saw on your sig you have one sub, Im just curious if youve ever been metered.

 

That's a Phoenix Gold Outlaw, puts out 2x50W + 2x100W @ 12V, 2x80W + 2x185W @ 13.8V. I have the 2x50W section driving all the front speakers at the moment on 2 Ohm stereo at about 120Wrms per channel. 2x100 section is bridged running my Peerless XLS 12" sub at 500Wrms.

I've not been metered yet but this is an SQ install so it won't score above 125 dB with a single sub anyhow. Could probably get into the high 130's with a second sub and some retuning.

This is just phase one of the install right now. Soon I'll be swapping out amps and rebuilding a sub enclosure for 2 12" drivers. Have a single Peerless XLS 12 now and a pair of Phase Linear Aliante's but I'm toying with the idea of getting a pair of Dynaudio 12" subs and selling the Aliante's.

 

Sounds good. With my Orion, I hit 135.7 at a dbdrag competition about two weekends ago. Rain cancelled the event so I never got a retry. I used the wrong test tone (45hz instead of the 26hz it should have been) and I didnt blast it all the way.

What kind of effect (in terms of decibels) do you think removing the speakers in my rear deck would have?

 

Try it out you never know. You might actually get an increase in SPL if doing so allows more pressure to enter the cabin area....

 

Yeah thats what I was thinking, Im gonna give it a whirl, there is a competition coming up on the 15th.

 

or instead of that you could try what im doing....
ssshhh.....its a secret...but just to give you a hint of the power of these subs, how does 145.2 db sound? sounds pretty good to me.
if you have a 95-96 max i can give you a scematic of the box, it may fit 97-99 i don't know because i don't have one, butit may fit.

 

sweet.. i wanna hear those...

 

I can't wait until I hear the JL Audio 300.4 and 500.1.
Tomorrow, the dealer I am getting the rest of the equipment from is going to have both amps on the board as well as the Focal Components and the JL Audio 12W3.
