What 10"s to go with?
 
I have a 4 door Jetta with a trunk so I know this will be hard and a pain in the ass.

But I wanna start entering competetions. I figure a lot of people are in Street B so I was thinking of going with 2 10"s and entering street a.

I came across some money and would like to invest some into 2 brand new 10" subs. The amp will be decided later on.

I want something for competetion that will give me a good burp. Was wondering what you guys would suggest?

Jwb_Spl 11-18-2010 12:41 PM

American bass hds or tf ones seem to be the best bang for your buck

Father Yuli 11-18-2010 12:53 PM

wait,

before you waste money on subs you have to invest in a battery and proper wire.

if you rinky dink that part everything else will be a fail.

you probably would want to buy a meter if you want to compete.

madwarrior 11-18-2010 01:11 PM

I have 2 runs of 0 gauage wire already and have been looking for a battery. how many runs of 0 gauage would u suggest yuli?

Jwb_Spl 11-18-2010 01:11 PM

depends on the amp......16 runs

Father Yuli 11-18-2010 01:13 PM

yah depends on the amp. i would go with 8 minimum, 4 pos and 4 neg.

dont cheap out on the battery, that's the most important component.

madwarrior 11-18-2010 01:19 PM

What battery would you suggest exactly?

Father Yuli 11-18-2010 01:57 PM

hawker 1700 or 1750

there is also a NSB battery that fits in the rules for Street A

becuase of course it matters if u are using a trunk or not? trunks always make a difference on what subs to use, wouldnt you agree jalapy?

im pretty sure he was talking about the brand.

u dont see 15's in a trunk around here but best believe they use them in MECA and USACi

Lol the funny thing is I used AB amps that year and will never use AB ever again. Doesn't matter how good or how loud a product is, if and when it fails it all come down to customer service and AB is the worst!

Please explain what happened

Lessy 11-19-2010 10:22 PM

If anything ever went wrong with your amps, don't send it back to them for repair, you'll never get it back!

AB FTW 11-19-2010 10:35 PM

Really dont think Jesse would have a problem if anything would happen to go wrong with his amps. Trust me at worst he would have to wait 2 days for new ones to be sent to him. Thats called having hookups which maybe you didnt have Lessy. P.S what amp did you blow that you sent for repair that never came back. Dont hate on Americanbass there customer service is just fine.

Ok so Jesse would be the only one without any problems and everyone else gets the shaft, thats great customer service!

Jesse, if I were you, get that in writing you'll get a new one in 2 days... cause it sounds like B.S.

btw, it was a 200.1

AB FTW 11-20-2010 11:41 AM

My question to you MR.HATER is did you purchase the 200.1 directly from Americanbass. Wait let me answer that question no you didnt. The amp you had was purchased from another person so why should Americanbass do anything for you did you pay them anything. Thats funny that you would say you would never use AB again but didnt you go buy a 400.1 after the 200.1 yes you did. So keep making yourself look stupid and dont worry about Jesse you just hating because the guy has accomplished more in 2 years then you did your whole time competing. This meaning scores and being on a elite Team in Americanbass where he is taken care of. LOL get it in writing only newbs need to get contracts or warrenty papers drawn up. The funny thing is you all had your opportunity but thought you were to kool for school. Where as Jesse gave Americanbass a chance and will reap the benifits of it for as long as he wants to. Once again please stop hating you are making yourself look stupid when you are actually an intelligent person Les.

Jwb_Spl 11-20-2010 11:53 AM

Damn why do I always get brought into stuff??

AB FTW 11-20-2010 12:04 PM

Because people hate seeing someone so new to the industry get taken care of the way you do. Thats why you always get brought into it.

Since this is the first time you hear of this story you are very quick to comment about something you don't know anything about, that my friend makes you look stupid!
Ya I bought amps from a competitor and when one did blow I asked them if they do repairs, they said yes. So in the mean time they offered me 400.1's so I bought them. All they had to say is they don't repair amps and I would have sent it some where else, no biggy.
And since you opened this can of worms praising about a company that only serves to elite member, it was time for everyone else to find out the truth about your precious AB.
Btw, hating is not what's intended.

Lessy 11-20-2010 12:19 PM

And I don't care what others do, I never have. I never got into Spl concerned with what other ppl do, only just to better myself and what I can do.

SP Canada 11-20-2010 12:20 PM

i think your the exception to the rule jesse. contrary to belief i dont hate on ab as much as mr ab ftw might like to think. the 1100.1 is one hell of an amp, as is the k9 and all other amps that are identicle. but when it comes down to customer service ill NEVER go with ab unless i go straight to bob because the canadian guy only helps out guys that are already loud.

I loaned my 500.1 to a friend who needed it for finals, no problem. I had another friend offer up his 400.1 for me to use so i asked for a loaner from our wonderful ab rep up here who promptly never returned my calls or helped me out. Then after finals had the audacity to say "imagine your score if you had 2 ab amps in there." To which i replied, yeah just imagine nick, what my score would have been if ab helped me out at world finals, just imagine.

I really doubt jesse would be catered to so well if he was only doing 154's. not to mention not all "team ab canada" members get the same pricing on amps. Well not until jesse started giving out the prices he's getting. Jesse you keep up the good work and remember, no matter what brand you have, you my friend would be loud anyway.

SP Canada 11-20-2010 12:23 PM

as for you mr lessy, when are you gonna make your return to the spl arena? im sure the wifey wont mind you spending a weekend or 2 with the spl crew once a month. the spl scene needs vets to come back and show the new guys that spl isnt about smack talk its about chilling with friends and having fun.

tjmhaa 11-20-2010 12:27 PM

2 dvc 10" jlw7! ported and biggest box you can fit in your trunk, haha

AB FTW 11-20-2010 12:39 PM

That is funny you say that because to Americanbass everyone who uses there gear is an Elite competitor and gets taken care of. The thing that seperates all the competitors is there work ethic and what they give back to the company that helps them. That is why Jesse might get a little more help then the other people on Team Ab. He was asked from Bob to attend shows and premote the product and he did that and more. Take a look at the past season 20 people at a show 50% of them running Americanbass so how can you say they only serve elite competitors. What other American based company has helped canadians in the last 10 years as much as Americanbass. Thats right not many .Trust me i know of your story first hand so dont tell me i just heard about it yesterday Les. So please tell me what you think you have expossed to everyone about Ab.

AB FTW 11-20-2010 12:53 PM

What mr.spcanada says is somewhat true yes more could have been done for him at finals if it could have been done. The thing about Jesse getting what he got would he have got that same deal if he wasent hitting big numbers. The answer to this question is in the last post i made the kid went to more shows then anyone in canada including the 2-3 shows in the US. The other thing is he helps Bob and Nick with R&D by doing countless hours of testing on his car. Thats why he is where he is its called dedication and hard work his score is a bonus. Please feel free to call Bob SPcanada since you say Nick is of no help and see what Bob says. The way that conversation will end is contact Nick for Team pricing. So maybe you should just try and call Nick and see what he can do for you.

Father Yuli 11-20-2010 01:27 PM

for fukks sakes nick stop this please.

AB FTW 11-20-2010 02:20 PM

Why is it everytime someone posts somthing about AB Nicks name comes out trust me this is not Nick

Jwb_Spl 11-20-2010 02:41 PM

Why am I being brought into this???

This is the type of that makes me not want to compete.

Because bro he only wants to have winners on his team. Why do you think you run 1100.1's and no one else can afford to?:smokin:
He's your bitch Jess.lmao:smokin:

Why is it that only Jesse should reap the benefits as opposed to the rest of the team??? This is what I cannot begin to comprehend. Please explain

**** it!!!! Since no one has the balls to come out and say it then I will... How come another "elite" team member couldn't get the same deal as Jesse did on amps? He is an american bass "elite" member isn't he? I hope that he leaves and goes with another company. He just doesn't deserve that type of treatment. Car to comment on that one???

Don't let it get to you dawg. In one ear and out da nex. It is what it is and your association is pure drama mang. I luv it though. I know that I'll be next so I welcome it.lol:smokin:

AB FTW 11-20-2010 03:10 PM

Jesse is not the only 1 who reaps the benifits of being on TeamAB. The whole team was helped this year anyway they could be helped. Once again like i posted earlier in this thread the amount of work and support by going to shows can help you get more benifits from the company. The comment about only wanting winners is out to lunch because all we want is to help people become winners. Trust me having 12 cars show up running your gear is worth alot more then having 1 champion running your gear at the end of the day. So if your comment is so true why hasent Americanbass approched you since you are so loud and 1 of the top Northamerican cars in your class. Thats right because your comment is BS. Have fun with your gear and have fun at finals to all you haters we will see who has the last laugh.
