Trading some PMs with Ralph about them right now guys.. looks like they will be OK to use.

You can use the 8400's but how many of them???

Well hit the first show of the year only to get upset with the equipment. I figured 2 months of break in at half power would have been enough. Guess not halfway through the run two subs shorted causing the amps to go into protect and finishing the run at 156.9. Still better than what was done at finals but still. Was hoping to see a 160 SB.

sorry to hear that man. you gonna try something different?

Started out at 159.7 lower than I was hoping for but it was almost 100 degrees outside. Any how these will have to remain in there until the new ones get here at the end of the month. As far as the new subs go I cannot tell until they get here. I can say this the new subs are alot more efficent.

efficiency in sb isnt the key alone its subs that can also last for the entire run if these 2 things dont match well good luck

Not bad.....how far had it dropped before subs went??

It wasn't too bad 159.2 then pop pop click click, then stayed about 157 until last 2 seconds and bam 156.9.

True however I believe the new subs will take pretty much anything I can throw at them. I have seen them take some serious power and hold up. Plus still have alot of box work to do as well. Finally finishing up his other project, so will be back to working on the explorer again.

How many amps went into protect.

IDE LIKE TO KNOW WHAT THE NEW SUBS ARE, AND I CAN TELL YA MY OPINION IF THEY WILL HANDLE WHAT YOU CAN THROW AT THEM

2 amps went into protect

XS-SPLs?

Crossfire XS-SPLs?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

nope guess again

fred's subs right now are XS-SPL's with the 4-inch coils.

Well after I told him to take it easy in Plano he did not listen he reset the Texas record again. 158.7@44Hz.

not too shabby, keep it climbing.
