I just had one 18 in the break in box, just wanted to make sure the meter worked on my laptop! Got the box cut, (looks like hell) but I'm gunna try that slot port! One problem is the magnet for the sub is in the port! Hahaha I had to cut the port around the magnet! Idk how much that is gunna hurt me?

Well the slot port is a flop so far! 154.2! thats 2 dbs less than the aeros!

Subject: Re: Progress Tue Feb 02, 2010 11:26 pm

How is it .......uahg .I mean5&$?
Not sure what is going on!

Subject: Re: Progress Tue Feb 02, 2010 11:34 pm

That size port needs power!

Subject: Re: Progress Tue Feb 02, 2010 11:36 pm

Also I think the holes in the port wall are hurting you

Subject: Re: Progress Tue Feb 02, 2010 11:47 pm

Pics?

Subject: Re: Progress Wed Feb 03, 2010 1:47 am

any chance of cancellation? make sure all 3 subs are moving together. I have 2 D9, if you ever want to throw some real power to them 18s. just let me know.

Subject: Re: Progress Wed Feb 03, 2010 8:45 am

That will do it!

Subject: Re: Progress Wed Feb 03, 2010 9:18 am

I might need to try those D9's! Idk I'm gunna try makin the port smaller tonight its 306 sq inches now and test it! I might try dropping the impedance again!

Subject: Re: Progress Wed Feb 03, 2010 9:23 am

Sounds good!

Subject: Re: Progress Wed Feb 03, 2010 9:31 am

Subject: Re: Progress Wed Feb 03, 2010 9:35 am

I see! That is what you are up against!

Subject: Re: Progress Wed Feb 03, 2010 2:01 pm

whats the frequency

Subject: Re: Progress Wed Feb 03, 2010 2:41 pm

75hz is that sweet spot! A little too high

Subject: Re: Progress Wed Feb 03, 2010 2:42 pm

kept blowing the passenger side door open at the top, about mid burp! Lost all the pressure

Subject: Re: Progress Wed Feb 03, 2010 3:58 pm

What port size are you going to end up with 4.5 or 5

Subject: Re: Progress Wed Feb 03, 2010 6:47 pm

my ranger is loudest with the meter in the driver kick, driver door and window closed, passenger door open window closed, both back doors closed. try that. and I really think that port wall being cut like that is hurting you.

Subject: Re: Progress Wed Feb 03, 2010 6:49 pm

^^^^^ also both front seats leaned as far forward and pushed as far forward as possible.

Subject: Re: Progress Wed Feb 03, 2010 8:08 pm

I can't tell for sure but it looks like the angled peace comes to close to the port . If the port is 5" there needs to be at least the same with there! I could be just how it looks in the pic!

Subject: Re: Progress Wed Feb 03, 2010 9:34 pm

Thanks Bo Mine is a standard so the clutch pedal is in the way, but ya I lose a half a db when the seats are not forward! Ya I tried making the port smaller lower impedance and cant get over a 154.2. Im not real happy! Idk guess just start from scratch again!
