Silver Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 1000 Registered: Mar-06 | So I did Bass Race, outlaw got rained out so only Bass Race numbers today folks. I will soon have burp numbers for ya hehe. So again, here is what I have.. 2006 Ford Focus STOCK electrical 4 gauge power/ground Eclipse HU 3100 RD 1000.1 2 RD Classic 12's 3.5 cubes tuned to 35hz I need to explain this as well. My deck does not have a pause, so for the first 2 seconds I pretty much had a 0. As for the 30 second average we got up to a 134.9 on the new TL  I was pretty happy with that. Should be in the 40's for burp I am sure, but I will find out this week sometime. Kevin |

Gold Member Username: OglejustPost Number: 2206 Registered: Aug-06 | um.... 134.9 isnt very good imo. i did a 131.? on music on 1 $25 12inch sub w/ 200 jensen watts so imo the classics r a waste of money |

Silver Member Username: ShowridesHartford, CT USA Post Number: 899 Registered: Feb-06 | Way too many variables here. Bassrace is nice because you can see how loud subs will play for music, but I wouldn't say comparing TL numbers between two different people is any good indication of how loud certain subs will play. You could have a professional SPL guy with an average of 145 in bassrace, and then another guy with the same setup with an average of 135 db's. The vehicle, install, music chosen, and a million other things can all change the outcome. The variance is just very big when looking at bassrace scored with people with similiar setups. Do a burp test and compare it to other subs. IMO thats the best way to keep things constant and see how loud a subwoofer can get. |

Gold Member Username: OglejustPost Number: 2214 Registered: Aug-06 | im just saying that 134.9 bassrace w/ 2 12's and 1k is not a good score |
|
Silver Member Username: ShowridesHartford, CT USA Post Number: 900 Registered: Feb-06 | I'll agree with you. Playing music the entire time would be a good start to increasing that score  I just don't think the problem was with the setup. |
|
Gold Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 1008 Registered: Mar-06 | I'd have to see it in person. All TL's are different as well Considering it was my first time and don't have a pause button on my deck, not bad too me Kevin |
|
Gold Member Username: 420alldaylongPost Number: 2184 Registered: Sep-06 | I've seen the same system get metered on three different TLs and score within .2 sealed up on the dash. |
|
Gold Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 1009 Registered: Mar-06 | I wish I knew this deck didn't have a pause button before I got it, but no biggie, this was a throw in for daily Oh, and my score was sealed with rear seats up Kevin |
|
Gold Member Username: Adam_sPost Number: 1583 Registered: Aug-04 | With back seats up that is another thing that would really change the score. With the seats down I would expect the score to increase quite a bit. |
|
Gold Member Username: Adam_sPost Number: 1584 Registered: Aug-04 | Ohh and Congrats on the Gold status Kevin. |
|
Gold Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 1010 Registered: Mar-06 | WOOT! Thanks. Didn't even notice that haha. Guess I'm blinging the gold "spinning" chain now. Kevin |
|
Gold Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 1011 Registered: Mar-06 | Oh, Steinke, what is a good bass race song? I was using lil john, throw it up. Kevin |

|
Gold Member Username: Tremor1127Team Fi Car Audio [:-] Post Number: 1826 Registered: Aug-06 | let me get this right? the focus has a trunk, and the back seats were folded up? |
|
Gold Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 1012 Registered: Mar-06 | Yep, the Focus has a trunk haha. Seat up as well. I will go buy that CD today. Young Jeezy. I don't listen to much rap, so I'm dumb in that area haha. You say dj rectangle cd. FYE best place to find it or will target have it? Kevin |
|
Gold Member Username: Adam_sPost Number: 1585 Registered: Aug-04 | A lot of people use Lil John Da Blow for bass race. |
|
Gold Member Username: HdubbFarmington, Nm Usa Post Number: 2194 Registered: Nov-04 | well when was younger dj rectangle was underground type music but i think he has gone more mainstream now. it might be there.... some of those bass mechanik cds might work well too..... |

Bronze Member Username: TeamrevolutionATLANTA, GA USA Post Number: 46 Registered: May-07 | What hz did you do a 131 with? Kevin did it in the 30's box tuned at 32hz. not 50 and 60 hz. And do burp 140+ db on entry level subs in a trunk car in the 30hz range is damn good. |
|
Bronze Member Username: TeamrevolutionATLANTA, GA USA Post Number: 47 Registered: May-07 | It is also a SQ setup |
|
Gold Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 1014 Registered: Mar-06 | Sorry guys, my box is tuned to 32 hz Kevin |

Silver Member Username: TheweaselSteamboat springs, Colorado U.S. of A Post Number: 842 Registered: Mar-06 | thug motivation 101 isn't a bad bass race song either |
|
Gold Member Username: JblanfordPost Number: 1784 Registered: Oct-06 | ogle's box was at 33 or 34 ? it was an elemental designs eqhs12" |
|
Bronze Member Username: TeamrevolutionATLANTA, GA USA Post Number: 48 Registered: May-07 | i will get it retested also because kevin is a rookie at it and it took him a few seconds to get it to play and a few more seconds to get the volume up. The Classics are a pure SQ subwoofer we are also bringing our a 8" version within 60 days. Tuning of the box does not matter as much the song you play and were that is as far as HZ. If you want numbers at low cost use the Elite SPL V.2 when it comes out at the end of the month. We tested over 150 db in three diffrent vehicles with 5000 watts. on one 12" scores ranged 151.9-154.2 between 40-49hz. They come in Dual 1's but can be built in D2. We want to get about 8 more guys running these in competitions. We have a guy setting up with 4 10" and another guy thats building two 15" |

Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rPost Number:... Post Number: 3472 Registered: Jul-06 | "chad that 128.2 was on music 30 sec average In Meca Amateur Street 1 Mode" Meca is metered at the head rest.A 134 is much louder than a 128.2 that you stated there.How was the SQ of that "test sub" by the way? |
|
Gold Member Username: JblanfordPost Number: 1788 Registered: Oct-06 | Rob i had some typo's in that thread...sq was pretty damn good on that sub. you can't go wrong with it lol, its only 25 bucks |
|
Gold Member Username: JblanfordPost Number: 1789 Registered: Oct-06 | btw rob...ogle's car DOES NOT like the the headrest |

Silver Member Username: Thumpinwith8s2 RE8s, 300 watt Jense..., 133.3db@49hz!! Post Number: 308 Registered: Jun-07 | I hit 131db@40hz on the dash, and 133.3hz@49hz in the kick with 2 RE8's and a 300 watt amp. However, that was burping with test tones, drivers door open, and back drivers side seat folded down...but still pretty good for 2 8's..lol |

Post Number: 3483 Registered: Jul-06 | "However, that was burping with test tones, drivers door open, and back drivers side seat folded down...but still pretty good for 2 8's..lol" Why would you meter like that?Are you going to drive around town with your door open and drivers side seat pressed against the steering wheel?Seriously... |

On that note...why meter at the dash? or kick? (answer)---that is the way MOST competition organizations meter. |
|
Bronze Member Username: TeamrevolutionATLANTA, GA USA Post Number: 51 Registered: May-07 | not bad at all with 8's we are bringing out the classic 8's and possibly a sonance 8" We have been getting alot of calls for 300-500 watt 8" When I owned a shop for 6yrs we maybe sold 12 8's a year. But it seems people want a 8" with a 7.5" motor |
|
Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rPost Number:... Post Number: 3484 Registered: Jul-06 | Metering at the head rest like the way Meca does makes the most sense to me but I think it's retarded when you meter with your door open and seat all the way forward with a big dude sittin shotty with his body squished forward into the kick in an odd position.I wonder what you would meter at if you metered in a normal driving position Canaan and wolfie DB drag style, sensor on the wind and legal. |
|
Gold Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 1016 Registered: Mar-06 | Dang wolfman, that is pretty good with those 8's. I was thinking 4 8's in the future, but not sure. Street A with 2 SHW 10's sounds tempting. Oh well, I will have to get use to competing in bass race hehe. Got my rookie stripes baby Kevin |

Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana DD 9515d~~]... Post Number: 5067 Registered: Mar-04 | I meter both legal and outlaw. (But then again, who sticks there head up next to the passenger side dash to listen?) |
|
Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rPost Number:... Post Number: 3491 Registered: Jul-06 | "I meter both legal and outlaw. (But then again, who sticks there head up next to the passenger side dash to listen?)" I agree to that as well and that's why I said metering at the head rest makes the most sense to me and what did you hit Legal by the way? |
