Thinking of competing
 
I was thinking of possibly competing next year, my current setup is in my sig.

I was thinking of upgrading my sub, or would the L7 in a kicker box be good enough? I am not looking for super serious competition just fun stuff like bass race and maybe the odd DB Drag or the CSPL for a daily driver. I have 2 Memphis 1500D's and currently using one, I was wondering if a 15" DDz sub can handle 3000w RMS (2 Memphis 1500D's roughly 3600w) in a custom box.

to be honest a DD15Z would probably be a waste of money....3000rms wouldnt even come near hurting them, there intense

maybe a dd 9515 or soemhting along those lines

L7's can gte loud, just gonna take some work to figure out ur car/box

id sugest try with the l7 first, then if ur not happy, go with somehting bigger

keep what you have and just make a more spl oriented box before you go spending money on more gear. see how that goes.

If your current setup doesn't work out for you, meaning the kicker then go with a TF1. They kicked ass at north american finals.:smokin:

well my Epica no longer goes boom at the moment lol.

I was giving my buddy a ride home after work today and I wanted to show him my system. I put on a song with some good bass and set the volume to 45 (which is what Davis said is max right now because I am still breaking in the speakers) so after about six mins of that I got the evil eye from the lady in the car next to me and at the same time no more boom and a funny smell...

kicker sucks :hah:

If I finish work early tomorrow I will drop into selective sound to see whats up...

also since it is a daily driver I would also like SQ or atleast not a one note wonder if you know what I mean, because I do like the BOOOOOM!

tf 1's are not just for spl alone. With the right enclosure it will sound amazing for daily as well.:smokin:

what are the power ratings for the 12 and 15 inch?

turboeeyore 10-17-2008 08:57 AM

are you sure it was the speaker cause memphis amps like to fry for no reason? i've seen it happen alot. mosfets die.

Father Yuli 10-17-2008 05:25 PM
