here's a 60" sub that Richard Clark built... hit 160+db's at 11hz with 5000W, and imploded the bread truck it was loaded in

oh and everything that you post should have the EEK symbol after it...

Ayjay, this is cool... I need to find the pic of the hurse that had a 30 inch sub, it was sweet.

How does "ICE and RICE" sound for the thread? that would be good for a sticky. Any ideas?

Post by **ayjay** » Sat May 08, 2004 7:27 pm

haha sure.. ICE and RICE! that's cool

Post by **whiterps13** » Sat May 08, 2004 7:27 pm

no more?

Post by **ayjay** » Sat May 08, 2004 7:27 pm

hmmm not yet... well actually yes... gimme a sec, something else i found belongs in here...

Post by **ayjay** » Sat May 08, 2004 7:27 pm

this is some FAT speaker wire

now is that just a little overkill?

Post by **ayjay** » Sat May 08, 2004 7:27 pm

ok, it's tough to put this amp into perspective, and in fact the pictures don't do it justice, so bust out your measuring tape and see how big this amp is for yourself. it's a rare sony amp (xm-2000R)that retails for around $4000 US, only puts out around 2000Wx1 @ 1ohm, but the quality of the components inside it is just crazy

DIMENSIONS: 28" x 19"x 4"WEIGHT: 65 POUNDS

oh ya...

Legends of Car Audio

This would be a good place to put info about Car Audio facts & myths from the late 80's early 90's when the segment TOOK off.

Here's a few ideas ...

HCCA AmpsPhoenix Gold AmpsJL SubsThe old Fosgate stuff, Punch 45/75/150's & Power 300/650/1000'sAlpine HU's

Feel free to add to this list, and I'll start getting pics/specs for the things I've mentioned.

Haha that Richard Clark sub was offered to a friend of mine free if he could find a vehicle to put it in.

Post by **ayjay** » Sat May 08, 2004 7:27 pm

hey good finds, rex, that buick was insane...

that 60" sub would sound like a$$ though... you'd prolly hear a lot of other sounds coming from that sub other than bass :pface

Post by **Simmsled** » Sat May 08, 2004 7:27 pm

OKAY... Ima gonna Sticky it.

Post by **whiterps13** » Sat May 08, 2004 7:27 pm

wtf are wave guides?

Post by **Rex** » Sat May 08, 2004 7:27 pm

Wave Guide - A circular, elliptical or rectangular metal tube or pipe through which electromagnetic waves are propagated in microwave and RF communications. The wave passing through the medium is forced to follow the path determined by the physical structure of the guide.

There's also a little tutorial on WaveGuides USD Audio's web site.

Also see their page on Imaging.

These guys were CRAZY Car Audio pioneers in the 80's.

If you can find some pictures of Steve's Acura Ledgend from the 1998 IASCA season you'd be surpised it's the same car.
