Gold Member Username: DrivingrecklessDD 9515f, 148.2 db Mov... Post Number: 4535 Registered: Apr-06 | oh i see man. so is do you think you gunna gain 2.5 right off the bat or are you gunna have to possibly build that woofer a new enclosure? |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 7025 Registered: Jun-04 | well only our meter will tell us so well see |
|
Gold Member Username: DrivingrecklessDD 9515f, 148.2 db Mov... Post Number: 4539 Registered: Apr-06 | oh i c... well get a TL  i know the ac190 is the newest meter from AC and all but from my expeirence using it it is 1 db off everytime. And i used to compete in IASCA and DB drag almost every weekend so the differences are obvious |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 7026 Registered: Jun-04 | the termlab showed us a 144.0 db car off on 600 rms so if anything I think the ac 190 was the same or tighter than the termlab this time ...our 144.5 db was car on running 700 rms 2000 rpm |
|
Gold Member Username: DrivingrecklessDD 9515f, 148.2 db Mov... Post Number: 4546 Registered: Apr-06 | lol 2000rpm needed that extra charging to get you .5 ill give it to you.. you have a pretty bada$s score for only having 1 12" and 700 watts... sick nasty |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 7028 Registered: Jun-04 | I wanna try the audioque 2.5 12 in a bandpass box next but my bro is focusing on our 15 right now |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 7029 Registered: Jun-04 | yeah pretty crazy that we needed the 2000 rpm to get .5 db but it was the stock battery that was the culprit...the yellow top optima does MUCH better for us but we havent scored with that battery in yet on the audioque |

|
Gold Member Username: DrivingrecklessDD 9515f, 148.2 db Mov... Post Number: 4555 Registered: Apr-06 | optima should help get a hc2400 tho.. your gunna need it. so what has your brother hit with the 15 yet? what is his goal? |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 7032 Registered: Jun-04 | my bro was torn between the kinetic and optima but decided on the optima because of cost differences (he got a good price on the yellow top) As far as I know the only major advantage on the kinetic was higher idle voltage.....Jk there isnt any power limits anymore....years ago there was but that was way back |
|
Gold Member Username: DrivingrecklessDD 9515f, 148.2 db Mov... Post Number: 4570 Registered: Apr-06 | well when you burp with the car off i can tell you with the kinetik youll get a higher score.... |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 7033 Registered: Jun-04 | so far my bro hit a 145.8 db on our meter (a 145.3 db or a 145.1 db on other meters) but the box is small for it and its not tuned just right for the most spl ....my bro is gonna build a much bigger box for it...He wants a 147 to start on our meter ...its not broke in yet either |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 7034 Registered: Jun-04 | not bad for a konaki 15 LOL |

Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 7037 Registered: Jun-04 | LOL yeah I told you once before im pretty sure....ive been into car audio since like 18 years old and I still love it.. heck I love home audio too...life hasnt dealt me the easiest of cards in the money dept but things will turn around for me eventually |
|
Gold Member Username: DrivingrecklessDD 9515f, 148.2 db Mov... Post Number: 4585 Registered: Apr-06 | im sure you have but i tend to forget alot of stuff lol. Have you picked up any secrets on how to be louder over the years? |
|
Gold Member Username: InsearchofbassPost Number: 7038 Registered: Jun-04 | well I havent been into spl like that until I became a member on here and did alot of reading online about it and some from stereo comps I went to....but....since owning my own spl meter I have learned more that I wouldnt have without it... hence.. now I think any vehicles res freqency can be changed (but will take me some time to see exactly how).... and have seen ideas like corner loading in a vehicle and slot loading work in real life |
|
Gold Member Username: DrivingrecklessDD 9515f, 148.2 db Mov... Post Number: 4587 Registered: Apr-06 | So right now your just experimenting.. be sure to let me know the results |

|
Silver Member Username: BoomtankRochester, NY USA Post Number: 383 Registered: Oct-06 | Where did you get the konaki 15 ? |
|
Silver Member Username: Talon0112 audioque 2.5 144.9 ..., Pa Usa Post Number: 309 Registered: Jun-07 | ebay it was new there at 200 shipped now |
|
Silver Member Username: BoomtankRochester, NY USA Post Number: 384 Registered: Oct-06 | so hows the build quality on the konaki, looks tough or crappy? |
|
Silver Member Username: Talon0112 audioque 2.5 144.9 ..., Pa Usa Post Number: 340 Registered: Jun-07 | so far not to bad but there notorious for glue coming apart on the lower former just reglue and ok i have 2600w on it and its still going it is not a daily sub tho |
|
Silver Member Username: BoomtankRochester, NY USA Post Number: 385 Registered: Oct-06 | wow 2600wrms? not bad im looking at getting one to test with 1-1.5kwrms daily see how it sounds. im talking to a dealer to see if i can get a discount on one for testing/advertising purposes. |
|
Silver Member Username: Talon0112 audioque 2.5 144.9 ..., Pa Usa Post Number: 342 Registered: Jun-07 | it is not a daily sub anything under 45hz flat sucks its a burp sub only, my best is 146.3db with it but i am not done. |
|
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Northwest PA Post Number: 4003 Registered: Jul-06 | Haha yeah those Konaki subs would be horrible for daily.......... with no output under 45 hz they would probably sound worse than L7s  |
