New sb king

First topic message reminder :

bo

well I guess than no sb5 for me no space for batts inside I can only fit 7 batts inside

you can have the batts there in streetbeat ,,,,

ok tryed to play it again with all 19 batteries in place and didn't drop below 16v, now before I drop the imp to .5 - .6 straped do you think I will have any problems with the amps holding together for streetbeeet ???

should play mighthave to roll into it

ok than I guess i'm going to order 2 more 7.5's than. rather play safe than sorry. thanks for the info.

No sorry them amps are bullet proof

lol yeah i was gonna say rowlands i know u run your that low and so do i. idk on 18v but i can go straight into mine no rolling with them strapped at .7 but thats 15.5v im sure they would be fine on 18v too but idk for sure as rowlands said they are bulletproof.

im thinking staped at .5 so thats .25 per amp

Thought cook was the only superstreet to break 170? I remember Gman knocking on the door but I never knew it was done. Very impressive van, I remember watching the build thread, he was on the first SS to use a steel cage.

cook ran super street 5+

what ohms do you run your 7.5's at rowlands ? straped or not straped at what ohms don't get me wrong I have moved DB Drive for the last 12 years. its by far the best over all product in my opinion.

Yeah I know, and for what I remember he was the only one in any SS class to break 170 at a show and dont see where anyone else did according the their result page. Thats what I was asking is when did this van do it?

i start at .33 mine will play starting at .13 but gotta start low volume then quick roll and she will play fine but wired that low my subs wont hold

I have found that running my amps on the oscope clean they do not have nearly as much output as when I throw some distortion in the mixand jump up a whole db whats up with that?
have you encountered anything like this? maybe just drop the ohms from 1.7to .5 and run clean on the oscope may yeild better results?

on 2 7.5's at 1.7ohms straped sealed on the dash. I think I can reach 63's outlaw on just 2 amps droped to .5 - .6

yep way more power dirty.... i set mine up in street beat with just a slight clip

you are correct....cook is still the only 170+ SS to date at a show. A few euros got quite close.

G-mans ss3-4 astro was always said to be over 170 but I dont even recall him breaking a 169. He was still head and shoulders above the competition in that class though. But the 170 was never done at a show...just rumoured. Just like Perillos van

BTW, the blue van is alive and well in the Northeast. I've seen it do a 67 SB at a show when Bob had it......

that vans nasty loud .. its louder then me for sure....

might have to move my wall back another inch and get that 1db

Also for those interested in loud SS guys.

Keep an eye on The A Team from Alberta Canada. He recently did a 166.4 in SS1-2 running low power (17k clamped) and a small 12 volt bank with a VERY budget build that he has only had for a year. Id keep an eye on that one. BTW this is the same A Team (Clay) who had the 162+ bassrace jimmy using only 8 subs and the same small 12 volt bank of batts..daily driven. The guy can build!

clayton koenig? if so his teammate steve mick has a loud ass van too

Nono...totally different clay. From up here in Canada. Lives close to the Riprocks and closeish to Dbdbon.

Competes as "A Team Audio" or "The A Team". His last bassrace vehicle was the gold/beige s10 jimmy that set tons of bassrace and psyclone records.

He did well over 162 db bassrace using a tiny little truck with 37 cubes total if I remember him correctly. Full wood enclosure, 8 subs, 4 amps, 7 d3100 batts, 12 volt setup. I think at the end he was running (3) 200 amp alts that our buddy built. It wasnt ever agreed that he was the all out loudest bassracer but It would have to be said that the did the most with less.

-without using an astro, caravan, panda, bella, terra, carbo van etc
-without a sponsorship of any kind
-building everything himself personally (he builds some killer killer Dung Pile)
-small cone area comparatively speaking with the other loud guys
-small power with the other loudest guys around.

I discussed with him a few times about switching to an astro for both his build or my build... and the general consensus between us was that we would get a pretty substantial gain from the switch but it wouldnt be worth it to forffit the originality in the build and vehicle itself in a class where we feel like style may not count on the score directly...it does somewhat count in swagga points.

I suppose now the world is starting to get a taste for the numbers that could have been done with an astro in place.

Similar to after 2007 finals I bought a cheapo CRX for my girlfriend who wanted to compete with the following year (Rusty and Ana inspired 100% hha). Back then multicells had just been disallowed so we through something together and did and the whole install (front batt fitment, runs of wire, "custom" amp rack, built the enclosures, loaded gear) in 4 days. Used the end of the 5th day to do some tuning for the car. About 20 burps total just to get proper box placement, seat placement, note, head unit volume and thats it. Wnt to a show and it managed a 152.0 which was the 4rd loudest street A score all year If I remember correctly. Being an explorer guy I was AMAZED with how easily that score came....and have always considered that idea to an astro for doign a wall. But at the end of the day I still agree with ATeamAudio Clay....Id rather have something different and run my wagon in bassrace and if i decided to get back into pure spl and do a ss class where its 100% funcionality and nothing else then maybe ill consider an astro.......OR A TERRA
