152.3 in a stock set up with 1 Audiobahn 12"
|
Silver Member Username: ZacdavisBeloit, Wi Post Number: 250 Registered: Dec-03 | Ya, My teammate threw together the system for a local show. He used an Immortal 12" and 1 mmats 2500watt amp. Yes, this was done on the TermLab. 152.3 with one sub in a stock set up. In other words there is no wall, all the equipment can only be in the trunk, and bellow the bottom of the window lines. Another words a basic stock set up. Pretty impressive number with no testing either. (btw, that would be about a 156-157 on an a/c mic) |

Silver Member Username: Audiobass10Cape Coral, FL United States Post Number: 252 Registered: Jul-05 | "damn thats pretty crazy especially for an audioburn sub....." Audiobahn makes loud subs. That's something no one can really argue. Their downfall is sacraficing build quality for cosmetics. If my memory serves me correctly the Immortal sub was manufactured by a very reputable company, though I can't remember who it was. |

Anonymous | isn't outlaw where you can place the mic wherever you'd like, and the car isn't sealed. and what is a rex? nice # btw |
|
Silver Member Username: QuickshotCharlotte, North Carolina U.S. Post Number: 285 Registered: Aug-05 | i mean we all know that audiobahn makes loud subs but when you have XXXs and Avalanches getting in the low to mid 140s that 152.3 is still pretty nice even if its an spl subwoofer |

Silver Member Username: ZacdavisBeloit, Wi Post Number: 253 Registered: Dec-03 | rex= is a common nickname for Honda's CRX. Outlaw= a door may be opened, but the mic is to only be placed in the front lower kick panel or on the dash in the legal position. Outlaw is nothing more than a phrase coined by USACi. The format that allows the mic to be placed anywhere is called port wars. Dave Richer says, "Audiobahn makes loud subs. That's something no one can really argue. Their downfall is sacraficing build quality for cosmetics." I can agree to that! |

Silver Member Username: Robert_dMIA, FL USA Post Number: 156 Registered: Sep-05 | oh and the company that designed the immortal was digital designs in 2003 i think |

|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1902 Registered: Aug-05 | it does seem a little sketchy. i know a guy who has two 12" subs fiberglassed right behind his seats in his hatch, with a total of 4kw RMS, and he hits 152 on a TL. one sub, 2500wRMS, and he hits the same? i don't doubt it is possible , but that seems like a stretch. |
|
Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana USA Post Number: 1190 Registered: Mar-04 | but you guys have to think here...just about ANYTHING is possible in a rex. they are practically made for SPL. i have seen 10's (single 10's) do dam near 150dB in rex's. i dont doubt that # one bit. |
|
Silver Member Username: Tdeaton1021Near Tampa, Florida USA Post Number: 990 Registered: Sep-04 | i highly doubt they are made for SPL lol... i can see it now... honda commercial: fuel economy shmule economy... your SPL numbers mean just as much to us as they do to you. thats why we bring you the new 2006 CRX equipped with 2 inch plexiglass windshields and 500sqft of dynamat with an optional twin 300A alternator! |
|
Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana USA Post Number: 1192 Registered: Mar-04 | what i mean is their shape and ecoustics are very well adapted to SPL comps. |
|
Silver Member Username: Tdeaton1021Near Tampa, Florida USA Post Number: 991 Registered: Sep-04 | i know im just kiddin around. the thought jumped into my head when i read it and i thought it was funny. |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 3516 Registered: Jun-04 | Great numbers zac. I knew good spl could be done with them its just the build quality i didnt like outta my quad 2 ohm immortal 12 I had. I mean if a pyramid superblue 15 can do 145 db on 600 rms a immortal 12 can do 152 on 2500 rms. |

My competition car is twice as loud as that, literally. |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1931 Registered: Aug-05 | are you kidding me? 152 is extremely loud. in fact, most people don't even like to sit in cars that hit 150+. they say it hurts their ears. |
|
Silver Member Username: ZacdavisBeloit, Wi Post Number: 256 Registered: Dec-03 | uhhh....no. i'm not kidding you. |

Bronze Member Username: LanzarchampBakersfield, California United States Post Number: 39 Registered: Sep-05 | yup i agree with muddywaters |
|
Silver Member Username: ZacdavisBeloit, Wi Post Number: 257 Registered: Dec-03 | lol, ok guys |
|
Silver Member Username: TdisantoPost Number: 167 Registered: Sep-05 | lol, what is your system that hits 304 dB |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1933 Registered: Aug-05 | twice as loud would be 158-162db roughly. |
|
Silver Member Username: ZacdavisBeloit, Wi Post Number: 259 Registered: Dec-03 | Thank you muddy, your close. Mike, A 10db gain is considered to be "twice as loud" However twice the power/wattage will only get you a 3db gain |
|
Silver Member Username: TdisantoPost Number: 168 Registered: Sep-05 | wow, yah total brain f@rt lol. Ok those numbers seem much more realistic for a second i thought you were out of your mind |
|
Bronze Member Username: LanzarchampBakersfield, California United States Post Number: 41 Registered: Sep-05 | yup yup indeed |
|
Silver Member Username: TdisantoPost Number: 169 Registered: Sep-05 | "My competition car is twice as loud as that, literally." I think its the literally part that did me in |
|
Silver Member Username: ZacdavisBeloit, Wi Post Number: 261 Registered: Dec-03 | besides, I cant believe you guys are callin me a liar. would you believe I did a 150 with 2 8" subs in a stock set up? or how about 160 with only 1000 watts? lol |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1940 Registered: Aug-05 | to be honest.....no. but i said nothing about lying, i said i find it hard to believe, but Ripley has changed my mind about a lot of things. lol  |

Silver Member Username: ZacdavisBeloit, Wi Post Number: 262 Registered: Dec-03 | yeah I hear ya, so many people come on here and say they do this and that. its hard to know whos actually telling the truth anymore. But, I can assure you, I never fib, and heck, I could even back everything up I say if someone really wanted me to. But I doubt anyone really cares that much anyways. |

Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 3517 Registered: Jun-04 | i personally owned the audiobaun immortal qual coil sub and talked to people who owned them as well and I totally believe the 152 db was done by him. Zac....hi sean, how've you been man, glad to see your still around. Im good just been busy workin on other stuff other than posting on the board so much but car stereo will never die from my intrests I assure you.

Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana USA Post Number: 1204 Registered: Mar-04 | hey zac... just how much can duct tape really help spl oh...and to tell the truth, if your used to high spl (hearing going out...lol) 150dB+ really isnt that bad...you just dont wanna stay in the car all that loud. burps are fine though. (but then again, the average joe would prolly $hit themselves if they sat in a 150db+ @ ~40hz car...lol) |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 3520 Registered: Jun-04 | i was in 152 db like two feet from the subs and ill never do that again lol |

Silver Member Username: Kd7nfrMontpelier, ID United States Post Number: 971 Registered: Apr-05 | Lol. No, I'm not jesus... ROFL! I'm just saying, 152.3 is a bunch of bullsh1t IMHO. Could be wrong, but that's where I stand. Just my .02. When I see it, I'll believe it. Just like I don't believe in god, because I have no real proof. |
|
Silver Member Username: ZacdavisBeloit, Wi Post Number: 266 Registered: Dec-03 | Yeah, your right, i know nothing about SPL. I'm just makin this stuff up. I mean, i've never broken 11 state records, 2 world records, or currently a world champion?, so, i guess coming in on ecoustics forum to make up stories will have to do for me. W/E JAKE!! |
|
Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2058 Registered: Aug-05 | calm down gentleman. Zac, have you ever built a SQ system? and if so(which i'm sure you have) what did it consist of? just tryin to make small talk. lol |
|
Silver Member Username: Kd7nfrMontpelier, ID United States Post Number: 979 Registered: Apr-05 | zac: did I offend you? All I said was: "I will believe it when I see it." Nothing more, nothing less. |
|
Silver Member Username: ZacdavisBeloit, Wi Post Number: 268 Registered: Dec-03 | not really Jake, but I do take it a little bit personally. I have no reason to lie. I'm not one to toot his own horn, but, it seems in this this case you might have a better chance of believing this Audiobahn sub is capable of doing that number if you knew a little bit more about the person telling you all this, so if me being the current World Champion in Super Stock Usaci, the current World Record holder for 0-1000 Pro Stock, and over a dozen state records...Maybe then you will believe the Audiobahn is capable of that number. (again, sorry for sounding a little braggish, that was not my intention at all, just wanted to give some perspective to those who didnt believe me that the ab did a 152, not really that big of a deal though) |

Silver Member Username: Eclipse2005Vicenza, Vicenza Italy Post Number: 198 Registered: Dec-04 | HI zac, here in italy is ok, im workin on a new project of a new enclosure for my Immortal. Im using BassBox 6 Pro. I made a mistake with the last one i did, it was 50 liters net volume but the ports where accorded at 75Hz (ops, my bad) so now im tryin to change the box volume and imma use just 1 port diameter 6,5"...we'll see what's gonna happen. Then i changed the power cable and now i use a AWG 00 (i think that's 70mm2). And btw i changed car lol, i dont have the eclipse nomore, i got a seat leon, it's a hatchback pretty well built. I dont know how much is the cabin gain but im tryin to figure it out. I know the distance from the position of the term lab sensor and the sub is 2,5meter....so now let's make some formulas :-). Im still using the A2300HCT (it's still 2x1200RMS) if it's not enough i'll see, maybe i'll get a A5000SPL. OK talk to u soon :-) |
