Gold Member Username: WingmanaliveNj US Post Number: 2930 Registered: Jun-06 | Partsexpress.com. My first one was powered by a 500w bash plate amp. Did it's job well. Then as I quickly grew out of it, I wanted more!!! I paid $330 for the 1000wrms plate amp by Dayton powering the 15" SI MAG. It ROCKS!!!! Very clean, very intense! I couldn't be happier. PS: It's the largest one they sell.  |

Gold Member Username: WingmanaliveNj US Post Number: 3015 Registered: Jun-06 | Lol. We wouldn't get very far BIGGS. Admin is like a hawk lately. And Yanks, I haven't even broken her in yet. I have to be careful with it being so close to my big screen. The MAG blew the plexi enclosure apart when I put some late night music to it. I should have used thicker plexi and drilled and screwed it together rather than using the adhesive. Oh well. Sucks. The plexi alone cost me $40. I've re assembled it and will try not to "disturb" the neighbors. NOT!  |

Gold Member Username: Nyyfan13Fi SSD USA Post Number: 2908 Registered: Jul-06 | lol...paul, you disturb the peace all you want, you deserve it for owning a mag...if only the neighbors knew about it. show them what she can really do...lol bet your neighbors love you lol |

|
Gold Member Username: WingmanaliveNj US Post Number: 3019 Registered: Jun-06 | It's where we all end up, eventually. My tv: A 52" Mitsubishi HD1080 widescreen My receiver: A 7year old Technics SA-AX540. 100w X 5 My cd player: 7 year old Technics SL-PD8 5 disc player My surround: KLH (Not great, but not bad) Dvd player: Phillips DVP642 Tape player: JVC dual deck (For the old stuff) EQ: Optimus 10 band W/expander and bypass (Really old) Works great though. Sub: Well, you know. 15" MAG powered by the 1000w Dayton plate amp. Seriously thumps the movies. Alot of older pcs, but def gets the job done. I also have a dvd recorder and an additional 13" screen behind the bar when company's over, just for kicks. |

Gold Member Username: WingmanaliveNj US Post Number: 3029 Registered: Jun-06 | If I ever need 3000+w for a HT driver I need psychiatric help. Also @ 6 grand I would expect more. I got 1000w @ 4ohm for $330. If I can get a hold of an 18" driver worthy of a HT setup, I might just be back to the drawing board. Hmmmmmmmmm.  |

Gold Member Username: James1115Use a simple... Post Number: 8874 Registered: Dec-04 | 18in avalanche FS of 15hz What size flexi did you use Paul? I just picked up a bunch and have no use for it if you want it. |
|
Gold Member Username: WingmanaliveNj US Post Number: 3031 Registered: Jun-06 | Thanks James. I used 1/4". It wasn't structural, just a box elevated above the sub. The MAG just blew it apart. Next time I'll have to use at least 1/2". It is very expensive. |

Gold Member Username: James1115Use a simple... Post Number: 8884 Registered: Dec-04 | Paul I think what I got was either 1/2 or 3/8 and you are welcome to all of it if you want. I got it for free and have no use for it. I will measure it out for you tomorrow. |
|
Gold Member Username: WingmanaliveNj US Post Number: 3038 Registered: Jun-06 | Thanks James. I'm not in "Build" mode right now. I'm still beginning to enjoying my sub that I have now. Plexi is expensive isn't it? |
|
Gold Member Username: James1115Use a simple... Post Number: 8888 Registered: Dec-04 | its not cheap. I will just send it to you man if you want it that way when you get in build mode you will have it |

Post Number: 940 Registered: Dec-06 | HEHEHE how about fitting 6 LMS 5400's into a cube and powering it using this? http://statement.anthemav.com/HTML/Technology/P_Series/P_Series_Tech.html (The P2) At 3 subs a channel, you could get down to like .16 ohms which would pull probably like 4000 watts a channel. You might want to get your hearing checked! |

Has anyone done business with him???? He seems well known i was wondering if anyone could vouch for him because his amp is a good deal |

Silver Member Username: Goose5714Post Number: 496 Registered: Feb-06 | I'd like him to be able to help me out...i want the extra 250w i'm getting buyin the amp from him versus a new one lol. |

Platinum Member Username: Project6Post Number: 13003 Registered: Dec-03 | He's alright. Just don't challenge him to a pic war |

Platinum Member Username: Project6Post Number: 13004 Registered: Dec-03 | Paul, why don't you post a pic of the sub you made. |
|
Gold Member Username: WingmanaliveA pic is worth 1000 words Post Number: 3728 Registered: Jun-06 | My latest. I'm now seriously looking to increase my driver to an 18" Avalanche. There really isn't a plateau, is there??  |
|
Platinum Member Username: Project6Post Number: 13012 Registered: Dec-03 | Just diminishing returns. |

Gold Member Username: Arande2400dB could probably d..., SouthWest Mi... Too Many DBs... Post Number: 1170 Registered: Dec-06 | I was looking at the TC-5200 and even though it has like 5dB more efficiency and higher Xmax it would cost too much. Diminishing returns I guess. You could obtain more box space with this I guess (1300w 8-ohm mono 20hz-20khz, ~$500). http://www.behringer.com/EP2500/index.cfm?lang=ENG What about a havoc? Sorry, there's a lot to think about. |
|
Gold Member Username: WingmanaliveA pic is worth 1000 words Post Number: 3738 Registered: Jun-06 | You see, the driver really isn't the issue. There are so many choices that it just comes down to aesthetics. It's the amp that is crucial. Without mortgaging the ranch, it's hard to find one above 1000w. I guess I could just use the amp I have pushing the Mag for my next sub. After all, 1000w in HT is nothing to turn your head on. I just don't want to waste a sub's potential. |

Gold Member Username: Arande2400dB could probably d..., SouthWest Mi... Too Many DBs... Post Number: 1173 Registered: Dec-06 | Lol personally I'm looking to get a JBL 4645c and power it with something like that Behringer for 130+ dB in the upper 20s of hz. Maybe it's just because I don't know what a DIY sub might do. |
