Audioque sdc2.5 15's breaking in on around 700rms

[rainbirdman07]

all that shit is bouncing because its a s-10 right? or can those subs really do all that.

[twiztid83222]

@rainbirdman07 s10s are well built and there is no loose shit like neons and geos . This is due to the fact its a walled off truck with a 11cf box  tuned mildly on around 1550 rms. It deff does work, that vehical is gone or has been gone now , I have a new video of the new whip, havent gotten any CRAZY vids yet because I need a second battery for this amp when its at 1.3ohm.

[rainbirdman07]

@twiztid83222 now i cant wait to get another 15".

[yamaharida226]

holy shit i new aq subs were good but the street duty flexin trees 0:53

[twiztid83222]

@yamaharida226 hahaha . Got a new box and vehical to put them in. Few days now. Theyy are nasty subs for price you cannot beat

[alisauskas10]

hey how did you break these in?

[XythenAndRyooshi]

@twiztid83222 True i get what your saying and thanks. i might have to take out a lil section of my port to raise tuning to 35hz after i test the sub on a good amp for a while

[zummrox]

the dpx11551 is only 2 ohm stable.. It puts out 1550rms at 2 ohms, so whats it putting out on 1.3? Its not good for the amp to run it that low...

[twiztid83222]

@zummrox Im guessing around 2000rms or more. Its fine for that amp. Its a robert zef design, he doesnt build crap that cant put out a shit load of power. You should see the internals on it. Amp held up at full tilt, never ever turned off or went into protect. The only problem was that the subs could bairly handle it at full tilt. Started to get a smell going but coils are still nice and copper color. If they were any lower brand subs pushing almost double rated then they would have been fried

[zummrox]

@twiztid83222 oh, because i have this amp currently pushing 2 12" Kicker L5's, running at 2 ohms. I wanted to upgrade to different subs (alpine type x), but the ones i would be buying are dual 4 ohm coils, meaning i can run the amp at 4ohm or 1ohm. Would i run into problems if i ran that amp at 1 ohm after a while?

[twiztid83222]

@zummrox I wouldnt recomend alpine type x subwoofers for their pound per buck. Go with aq or get 4 kicker l5's. Look up the wiring diagram for your subwoofers to wire them down to 1ohm , I got lucky and they sat at 1.3ohm , They usually will sit higher than 1ohm when you wire them together which is a good thing from not running the amp too low. The amp was fine running it that low. I would recomend a seperate battery. Not a cap! and just be easy on your gain till you break in the subs

[twiztid83222]

@zummrox If I didnt answer your ?s hit me back because today im in a rush to get out of here and only have a few min on my hands today

[twiztid83222]

@zummrox I forgot to mention run the big 3 in wire under your hood , 0g all the way from batt to amp then amp to batt. Costs more but its the way to do it trust me. Sheet metal does not hold current like wire does. Also the 200amp fuse will do good since they do not have a fuse in the amp. Go with 2 batterys . You can use car batterys if your really low on money but try to get deep cycle.

[XythenAndRyooshi]

@twizted83222 Yeah thanks for clearing that up. Yeah i didn't see anything about how i should tune these subs really so i used the tuning i would normally use. but it wasn't untill later that i saw i shoulda gone with something a lil higher with these subs. eh ill try it out for a while i try to stick 30-35 hz with tuning just cause its where i personally like it. the lower the better for me in my opinion. I was worried about the box being big and over powering the sub.

[twiztid83222]

@XythenAndRyooshi Tuning higher will get better results on the lab and contests. Tuning higher will also sound way better in all songs. The only songs that will sound good is the custom low note songs . Which there is not many of. I made that mistake back in the day tuning to 30hz and then building a box at 37hz and those loud songs just played louder. I also know that tuning low will cause damage to the subs , thats why aq recomends 37hz or higher at high watts

[twiztid83222]

@XythenAndRyooshi But then again aq recones are the cheapest and best you can get. I believe they are put together by digital designs but the parts are overseas. Same with the basket and magnets they are made in the dd factory by the aq owners son. Which makes aq the best bang for the buck and quality drivers out there.

[twiztid83222]

@XythenAndRyooshi They are littlery $40.00 if I can remember for the 15" sdc's , I stright dropped my jaw when they said the prices of the recones. They said they dont make harldy a dime on the recones because they want customers to be happy as can be and overpower there subwoofers if they wanted too. Its perfectly fine to overpower subs aslong as its a clean signal and you dont play them 247. If they start to smell you know you are playing them too hard/2 big of a box/ distored signal = heat

[XythenAndRyooshi]

nice! got me an AQ sdc 15 a while ago been breakin it in off maybe 200 watts on a home theater system and im kinda worried my box is too big. 4.3 cu tuned to 32hz the magnet was warm after about 10 mins of playin full blast like it wasnt hot or anything and the coil still has a nice copper tone to it just im worried that when it gets 600rms it will go poof....

[twiztid83222]

@XythenAndRyooshi Theres no way they will go poof with 600rms. They are safely rated at 600rms with a clean signal. I was pushing 900rms dirty and distorted to mine and the coils are still copper , also they are in a huge oversized box . If I remember correctly they are in a 5.5 cf box tuned to 37 hz . I will be sticking with aq till I go Pooof lol.

Btw 32hz is pretty low of a tone. They play best around 37 I was told by the owner and website says something about it.

[twiztid83222]

@XythenAndRyooshi The problem with a home stereo system is that 200 watts is not even high enough to cool the subwoofer down by it moving back and forth. Its basicly heating up the coil with low movement so its hard for the coil to cool down without it breathing. Its like a toaster , if you blow on the red coil in a toaster the red goes down all the way.

[blackbamabound]

pink floyd...hell yeah...

[fibtlowner]

sure. it'll prolly be a lil bit before i got everthing up and running. i just quit my job.. ill take pictures of the box and the car its going in tho.

[fibtlowner]

nice vid. these are good subs for there price. i have the box almost finished for my build for 4 of these. its nice.

[twiztid83222]

@fibtlowner make vids please . Im subscribed to you .

[TheDespensas]

yo man okay I got my subs in I'll get a vid up either tonight or tomorrow morning.

[twiztid83222]

@TheDespensas Sweet. Ill be waiting to view that. Just be pretty carefull on the watts. Ive put 2000rms to them so far and they began to stink a tiny bit over 10 seconds on a 30hz test tone.There not crazy in taking power and cooling but for the price you cant beat it. Most brands of subs start to stink on there rated rms. These deff can take over there rated 600. I bet its just because my box is too big . A smaller box would hold up with the 1000rms all day. Recones are so cheap im not worried

[07RedRider400]

the more vids i see of 15" sdc2.5s the more i wanna start my new build with them

[twiztid83222]

@07RedRider400 Im subscribed for that build. They are stiff as hell still only 4-5 days with them. Cant amagine feeling them on around 2000rms and broken in which I will be doing.

[07RedRider400]

@07RedRider400 yea hopefully my build will be underway in 2-3 weeks, right now i just need to finish sound deadening, do a big 3 upgrade, get a new batt for under the hood to go with my 2 kinetik 600s, and start the new box and order the woofers, and yea max rating is the way to go ill be putting around 1100 on each

[JBaudiophile]

i am going for 4 of these now man

[twiztid83222]

@JBaudiophile Awesome, good to hear. I was orignally going for 4-6 this month but im going to wait till I get my blazer walled off. I subscribed to see the build ! Just remember the recones are only $45.00 so overpower the shit out of them ,haha . A crescendo 3k at around .5ohm puts out 4000+rms. Awesome match for these

[akmarcos20gauge]

r you having any problem with tensile slap on these?

[akmarcos20gauge]

r u having any problem with tensile slap on high excursion?

[twiztid83222]

@akmarcos20gauge No, ive never had tensile slap on any sub that are woven between the spider. Thats weird your having that problem unless you have the old old ones.

[hulbert87]

very nice! Lookin good, AQ ftl? lol....no def. ftw!

[twiztid83222]

@hulbert87 stop messing with ppls emotions! haha

[hulbert87]

@twiztid83222 haha....we hang out with the team DOA , prolly the biggest car group that showcases AQ/DD in illinois, We always joke around sayin that AQ is flee market junk made by a china man lol. Everyone at shows (rooks) have no idea what AQ is and think it is automatic shit, then they see what it does in the lanes and are all over it

[DJnewdoe]

word up...thats wut it do

[twiztid83222]

@DJnewdoe Chea , when you gettin the vids up of your fi? I need that porn

[DJnewdoe]

@twiztid83222 soon feel me...i been soundproofing the whip...so i got no system in right now....but shyt give me bout a week or so word..
