how is it so hard to understand that a 8 in driver is capable of doing 150 db. you do understand what sound pressure is right? thats like saying an 8 year old cant blow up a balloon but an adult can. sound pressure is just that its pressure being built up by use of a cone occilating from ac current. its nothing more than that.
I was told my a friend of mine up in Chattown that Sundown's are the bomb and that I had to get my 8's, which I did. I have a 1000 watt Diamond amp pushin' em, but it was turned all the way down during what they called "The Break-in Period". I was told not to turn the amp up for the first few weeks as they "spider" had to slowly stretch in order for these supposed bad boys to boom the way they should. Well, now I'm hearing rattling from the sub on certain types of boom, but not all. not good.
@heavenlybeast1 Its prolly your box... Sundowns are known for their build quality. Either that or its your low pass and your picking up tones you shouldn't be.
@BENSYARDSERVICE Thanks, man. I'll definitely pass this along to the one who built the box and installed the bass. I hope your right & they're not blown. I don't think they are. They're still pumpin' hard.
@zekenc STFU noob!!!!!!!! Jacob has some great numbers with 8" , and why BS??? just because you can´t do it? and by the way, Alan Dante hit a 150 with a single DD 1508 in a CRX legal on the dash, i´ve seen a lot of people burping around 150 with a pair of 8´s (not me of course) , so learn a little bit about SPL before talking trash!!!
@twingo16V well..... did someone piss the lil baby off!! go kill yourself,in case your to stupid to read,that was an old comment,and who cares about a weak ass crx!! those are played out,just like you are,have a nice day,gay ass boi!!

Not much. For production I actually went with a stronger coil former and added a spacer under the frame. So... production are a bit more robust than the prototypes.
Fuck yea
