regina, when i was asking about prices in the other thread, i meant about your box.. i went to that site, looked around, and saw a box i thought was interesting.. then realized there was no pricing on that site for their boxes. there wasn't any messurments either.. was just wondering where you ended up ordering your's?

as for cd's, and tracks used to use while being metered.. i ended up creating my own mix of bass recordings.. i have stuff that'll go thru every frequency, to stuff considered to be a regular song, just has great bass.. i also have a usaci cd... its got alot of jazz and stuff on it.. all good stuff.

one last rambling on/comment.. have you ever heard a set of 15" eclipse titanium pro's?? omg.. they will kill you, no lie.. rms alone on them is like 3000watts.. i'd have to get another da7122, and use both to barely get the thing moving.. they're like $1500 each.. not that i ever will, but, that would be the end-all goal for me.. to get 2 of them.. i'd have to do a blow thru to my bed to be able to fit them in my truck though.. (that won't happen.. the bed is small enough already, lol)

That's what she use's everytime. Hey regina, how's trying to taking the SPL mic with you?

The 15's are sick. We have a guy that run's two of them in his Ford Exploder. WOW. Sadly, i'll never be able to fit a box that big in my car.

Strider0O0... oh, i didnt order from there..that was the only place i could find that talked about what i have..im not sure how much my box was, i bought it from a store called audio expressions thats in my area..the eclipse 12" and the box together cost me around $600..but for them being seperate im not sure, i would have to go back to the store and look.

TheUn4givin....shhh they arnt suppose to kno i tried to break the 1500 buck equipment lol

regina, it's cool.. lol, i ended up buyin some stuff to start to build my new box today anyway.. i was at the mall waiting to pick up my brother's fiance, and while i was waiting, i stopped into sears to just look around.. ended up buying a new craftsman table saw and dewalt mitre saw.. i bought a couple sheets of 3/4 and 1" mdf a few weeks ago.. now i just gotta get measuring, lol. i was gonna do another sealed enclosure, cause i tend to like the clarity of them more than any ported.. but, i'm thinking this time im gonna do a ported box.. everyone tells me i should, so im gonna give in and give it a try.

The eclipse subs like the vented boxes pretty well. I know mine and Regina's have a good freq response and awsome range. They hit high, low, loud and very clean.

i was planning on starting to build my box this weekend, but just got told we're going down the shore for the weekend to my grandparents.. so now it has to be put off another week now. i really can't wait to see what i can hit once its finished.

My old Honda was loaded in the back with two Volfenhag 15"s, but it was too loud for comfort so I got rid of them completely. I also have a friend that spent his entire tax return on stuffing six 12"s in the back of his Impala. He hasn't put it in to any competitions yet, but it's much louder than the system the manager of Ultimate Sounds has in his little hatchback Civic, and he's hit about 145 according to what is written on his windshield only yielding one 15".

You can hear that Impala for about three blocks away. It's crazy.

i was talkin to my dad last night after getting gas.. he was out front of our house, and i was at an intersection, basically 1/4 mile away, maybe a little further, but its directly in front of our house basically.. i told him to hold on a second, and see if he could hear me.. i held my phone to my hand, then turned them up almost all the way for like 5 seconds.. then back down.. he was laughing when i put the phone back to my ear.. he said he could hear it easily, and that im going to go deaf, lol.
