2 more trophies and more DeeBeez

Been a busy weekend. Woodbridge on Saturday and Hamilton today. Managed to make it to both, despite it pouring out as I left for Hamilton this morning. Cleared up beautifully just as I got into town. I didn't do well in bassrace either day. Qualifying looked good both days, then when it mattered S#!T happened. DbDrag was another story though. Finally figured out the peak frequency of my car is 39hz. Yesterday hit a new personal best at 141.5, and came 2nd in street A. Today the 1st run did not look good at 140.2. A little tweaking had brought that all the way up to another new personal best of 142.1 in the street A finals losing by 0.3db to Kris Jones with 142.4. 1 more silver medal and another trophy for the collection. Not a bad start to my competition career. So far in 6 shows I have taken home at least 1 trophy for something. Quick pic.

Congrats bro, Your gonna need a dedicated shelf for those soon. 142 ey?? You've almost caught my 3-12's sealed with half the cone area and power.

Should still be ready for the weekend of the 10th if your still coming by. I changed the enclosure design again. You'll be the only one to see this till the next show I attend. IT's GONNA BE SICK!! I hope to get a TL by them also so only we will know what I'm bringing to the show. lol

Congrats again bro, I'm jealous. I think I'm going to have to join IASCA and IDBL. The guys in my class are hitting numbers I can't touch right now. Dought even with the new box I can come close.

Congrats on the success bud. I am surprised your cavalier is peaking so low you peak should be around 44-48hz. but i see your box is also tuned low for daily though. If you were to bring the tuning up to about 42 on your box you would probably see a big jump.

Thanks man. Yeah I have been considering doing just that. I want to get a new amp 1st though. 2x 1000rms subs are only getting 1100rms total. After that I want to build a higher tuned box and see how much I gain. Might take some experimenting to get one that is loud and good for daily and SQ. I love building boxes so should be fun. LOL

Wow I feel special to be honored by the Father. LOL I bet he meant someone else but just in case. LOL Thank you kind sir.

PS
Forgive me Father for I have sinned. I have competed in SQ recently and liked it. I fear I am weak and will be tempted again. LOL

Hey you've had a great first year. I wish I lived closer to everyone.

I'm gonna try to talk my local shop into holding an event. It's been several years since Windsor held an audio event.

You know, for the right price that can change.

PS. there is a huge 3x show in Taylor, MI in July.
