The Ratio is to use 100,000 Micro-Farads per 100 Watts of Power, so if you use a 1000 Watt amp you should get a 1.0 Farad Power Cap, 1.2 will be better, I have 3200 Watts of PURE MUSIC POWER, so I just went for 5.0 Farads !!! :banana_dance:

 

read em....thanks.....does it say if the 100,000 uf per 100w is for RMS, peak or PURE MUSIC POWER amplifier outputs?

covered the box in some leather(ette), upholstery is a proper pain in the arse....and why does black leather have white backing....when you cut it you get white edges....nipped out and got some allumium 10mm angle, and egded the box in it. dropped speaker in and its okay.....some bubbles to annoy me for ever

hope so Tony...still not sure about the cavity Ive put on the back....worried it may boom a bit.

 

doubt it mark....birthday weekend next weekend so will not get any work done, hopefully by the feb meet.

 

 

 

BTW gotta take my hats off to you guys would rebuild the whole cars and fabricate mechanical parts....Ive had enough of this bloody speaker already, and Im only 2 thirds through, and if I never see another peice of mdf or poxy leathertte again itll be too soon.

screwed down amp, this thing still dwarfs the 15" solobaric

slid them into the boot, they fit nice, not a lot of space left, but i think it would be more trouble than its worth to try and build a bigger removable boot install

unfortunately it started to rain, so have only set the gain up quick, and switched amp to lpf, went for a little drive and am generally pleased. Needs tweeking yet and have got to set up head unit properly. Then I can start to play with the sub-sonic features and see what they do. Need to run the speaker in for 24 hours before you'll hear me coming tho
