I have been meaning to do this video for a long time now. About 5 years ago discovery channel came by and wanted me to break stuff with my speaker box. So we did. We tore up phone books, bags of chips and broke some glass. It was on TV and all that good stuff. Someone actually accused me of "bending the glass" because i was using 2 hands. Recently i had some scrap glass laying around and i decided to do it again but with 1 hand. Just to show i didn't bend anything...but the bass did. Great, now i have more crap in my box...lol here is the original video from way back when ruclips.net/video/dFVt_IT0lyg/видео.html
We've all seen what that port can do!! Phone books, glass, and a dudes head. Why let people trash talk? lmao Your 4 18's are crazy especially in a world of walled off cars, you set up oldschool, upfiring subs with new stuff and still out perform a lot of bassheads I've seen keep it up. If I ever come out that way I'd have to find you for a demo.
Just a question, doesn't the glass fragment and get in between any of the coils or mess up the speakers in any way? I have 2 12s I'm I'm always afraid a screw or something can get into my box. And when i bump my system I get paranoid for my speakers if that screw shreds my shit.
Steve those fools who said you where bending the glass got nothing to say now. They obviously must be too naive to realize that sound is just a vibration of air. Mad respect to the great glass disruptor. Salute.
someone actually saw this video in the first minute...and thumbed it down :D At least you let me know you were here! thanks for checking in i suppose haha
Dammm Steve that shit is crazy how all that force coming out of your subwoofer box broke that glass like it was made out of paper!!!! Great video bro!!! 👍👍👍
hey steve you should do a what's inside the box video. i know that would probably be hell to get that box out the tahoe, but i think it would be cool to see what's in there if you haven't cleaned it out in a while
Who ever left u that comment obviously doesn’t know what his talking about . Yo system is my dream system i wanna hear it in person always impressive on youtube in person shout knock my cap back!!
a mono block that is stable at 1 ohm is the simplest and most efficient route.figure out the rms and impedance in the subs manual, or online. add the rms wattage up(example 300 a woofer so 600 total), divide the impedance of one woofer by 2(example one woofer has a 4 ohm impedance, since your hooking up 2 woofers now the impedance is 2 assuming they are wired in parallel ) then find an amp that can play that wattage at that impedance. if it is a pre-built box with one + and one -. just find the stated impedance. the manual should also have a diagram explaining how to wire in series vs parallel to change to impedance. hifonics monoblocks are a decent entry amp if your impedance is 1 ohm. at higher impedance levels they put out less then advertised power.
Could you please tell me what hz to have a port tuned to for a 15 in soundqubed hdsv3.115. I'm being told a 4 cube box tuned to 46 and that sounds high to me. Also I tend to like sealed boxes but again I'm being told that sub won't sound right sealed. So please any input on port tune and opinion on that sub in a sealed enclosure. Also I don't have the skills to build my own or the money to pay to have a custom built so I'm looking at qpower qbomb enclosure. Knowing I'm going prefabed on the box would that make more sense to go sealed as there is less to get wrong in a sealed enclosure. Please any help would be greatly appreciate.
Tuning to roughly 30hz is the best for a range of music, 22-27hz for sq or less boomy music, and 35hz or higher for spl because it sounds like shit but gives great output.
if the shells weren't almost liquefied with the rest of the eggs, i would probably do it. Not sure how i would do it and not get a mouth full of tiny shells lol
Sir, I have 3800 watt 2 channel amplifier and one sony 12'' subwoofer (4 ohm) 420 RMS and 1800 peak power what are the best settings for these? please help me. I need deep and long bass.
A man I have 2 15 inch skar subs on 2 skar amps at 1 ohm and built my first box in years I couldn’t decide on port so just went with old trusty too pvc pipe 4 inch box is 37 long 20 deep and 17 tall and gets down for what it is flexing shit but the low lows ain’t there the lowest it gets is 29hz and it’s not strong any ideas for port for me bro be great thanks
But If port was slot or aero it would tune it lower but idk what too make how far off bottoms box shit like that and hate too cut it now and not be right and have to patch this box up because it’s doing good where it is just always want lower bass
if u look in slow mo with ghe playback speed the bass smashed the glass by pushing it into the box (im not saying the bass did not do it im trying to prove it did)
meade916 i have 2 12" rockford fosgate hx2 800 max power. with a boss 3000watt 1 ohm stable amp i have a 1987 chevy caprice classic what size box i need to make it drill????
jesus melendez Can't put a price tag on a work of art. Also I doubt he would ever reveal. I've never seen a video of his where he discloses costs. He does it cause he is passionate.
2 15s have an area of about +-1600cm^2, one 18 has about +-1100cm^2. 2 15 make about 1 and a third. 8 15s have about 6400 cm^2 4 18s have about 4400 cm^2
Notice the glass hitting the top of the port, I'm not saying that bass isn't fucking disrespectful as all hell, just noticed that it hits the port right before it shatters.

how many cubic feet is that box....just wondering...looks small...
Steve those fools who said you where bending the glass got nothing to say now. They obviously must be too naive to realize that sound is just a vibration of air. Mad respect to the great glass disruptor. Salute.
meade916 how many cubic feet is your box and what is it tuned to?
someone actually saw this video in the first minute...and thumbed it down :D At least you let me know you were here! thanks for checking in i suppose haha
meade916 haters bro is all it is
Ppl will always find a reasons to hate...fuck them. You have nothing to prove Steve. You've solidified yourself as the god of car audio years ago
well said
Now thats how you hand out paper towels at a bbq 😆😆
Steve was just proving a point everyone. unlike other people on youtube.
Dammm Steve that shit is crazy how all that force coming out of your subwoofer box broke that glass like it was made out of paper!!!! Great video bro!!! 👍👍👍
Damn Steve I've been following u for years now and you and ur truck are impressive as Hell good shit bro
that is pretty dope my dude
hey steve you should do a what's inside the box video. i know that would probably be hell to get that box out the tahoe, but i think it would be cool to see what's in there if you haven't cleaned it out in a while
i love it when steve proves the haters wrong, awesome vid man!
Nevermind them don't knows Steve you just keeps doing whatcha doing.
Man I'd kill for just one of those 18s. They're beautiful.
Bringing it back
That paper towel roll was awesome.
Nice setup 💪
As always, I am impressed
It awesome that Steve responds to his haters!!!
I wish you good luck getting that back out of the box
That Audiotistics shirt is looking good! Thanks for repping the shop.
Audiotistics hey man, I need a new shirt mine is looking pretty tattered did you guys ever get hoodies?
Andrew Goodballet working on new Tees
God dam Steve, I'm surprised you still have a back door..
Have u tried putting out a small fire with the bass. Line up a load of candles and see how far it reaches
LOL. Of course i have.
I think he did it with a birthday cake
also did it with a load of candles "lined up".
You didnt seem worried about the glass in the port so im assuming it wouldnt harm the sub's?
He has plenty of woofers for replacement lmao
That was a pure bass wow
Litter bug! 😂
Excellent work! 👍❤
Awesome work!!!
Dude what tune you got on this box
Los momentos de osio de sr steve... 👌
Do you have a video of the complete install or a walkthrough of the video?
in this 2018 Steve did not make video of the sound of his truck, chevy 2001, if he has any news ...
Nice steve 👍
Tonight on CNN, Steve Meade announces his war on inanimate objects. "I hate paper towels."
Hey Steve so ween do you gonna build some new Subwoofer box to your car ???
whats the song hes used on the subs?
Does any of the Glass debrief end up in the voice call?
was wondering that too. "debris"
steve would be awsome to play a mexican jam (corrido) please!!! anything Chalino Sanchez but theres nortena and banda so yea man would be awesome!
man if i had chance to hear your stuff i would definitely tell you to play mex jam😁 wit a coldie🍻
i would if i listened to that stuff. It ain't really my thing. Sorry man!!! not knockin' ya i just don't like that kind of music.
How much is your system? Its my dream to have 4 18's
My mind was shattered first before the glass
Who ever left u that comment obviously doesn’t know what his talking about . Yo system is my dream system i wanna hear it in person always impressive on youtube in person shout knock my cap back!!
Why would you risk getting glass sucked into the box and damaging the speakers?
for your amusement of course.
Hey i got a question for some advice. what amp would you recommend for bass . im using 2 8s xfls american bass in a band pass box.
a mono block that is stable at 1 ohm is the simplest and most efficient route.figure out the rms and impedance in the subs manual, or online. add the rms wattage up(example 300 a woofer so 600 total), divide the impedance of one woofer by 2(example one woofer has a 4 ohm impedance, since your hooking up 2 woofers now the impedance is 2 assuming they are wired in parallel ) then find an amp that can play that wattage at that impedance. if it is a pre-built box with one + and one -. just find the stated impedance. the manual should also have a diagram explaining how to wire in series vs parallel to change to impedance. hifonics monoblocks are a decent entry amp if your impedance is 1 ohm. at higher impedance levels they put out less then advertised power.
Beautiful!!!!
Wicked bass Steve I to ship my 2004 Tahoe to you and get 2 of smd 18s installed for bass wars can you please let me know what to do
i don't offer those services. Sorry!
Hoo best vibrators ever
How come the speakers were huffing up & down without any bass at the end ?
because low 22hz frequency cant be heard well. only felt! lol
SW21 Sharky Oh okay, so that low frequency isn't as violent when the speakers were huffing.
The human ear cannot hear anything below 20 HZ
@@extremebassline7281 yes it can, you just need to have enough output, technically you can differentiate tonal differences down to about 15hz.
What sensor I have to use to always get low bass
Did Steve say too much power? 😂😂😂
too much power to keep the paper towels in the port instead of chewing it up and spitting it 30 feet out the back lol
Hey Steve what's the name of that song if you get a chance

I have the HDC 3 15 and I have it tuned at 32hz and it sounds crisp and clean... if you go on soundqubeds website they have layout designs
James F at least 32 hz
Never fails.. god damn ! That’s that bay shit lol.. eats up errthang.. good shit bro.
LOL Sac isn't the Bay
Justin C. I’m referring it to as something that we would do out here in the bay “Oakland” to be exact.. as in no fucks giving.
Steve I need a good .5ohm stable amp what are some good ones
Absolutely insaneee but why the glass lol, now there’s glass particles everywhere
Good luck trying to get all the paper towels out of the box.
first song?
So the lower the htz the deeper the bass is?
yes
I will be playing mine daily so i don't need it at 22. Maybe 40hz
@@levellepartee7295 im new to this, what do u mean by i will be playing daily
Tuning to roughly 30hz is the best for a range of music, 22-27hz for sq or less boomy music, and 35hz or higher for spl because it sounds like shit but gives great output.
Still love the one where you beat the eggs
i should do it again, and then cook them next time haha
if the shells weren't almost liquefied with the rest of the eggs, i would probably do it. Not sure how i would do it and not get a mouth full of tiny shells lol
Just adds a little crunch to your eggs lol
Q&A, have you ever made this exact box for anyone else with the same truck?
nah.
There's got to be a name for the phenomenon that holds that paper in the port.... just wondering.
The phenomenon is called bass. :P In all seriousness, there's probably some sort of vortex or something that forms inside the port.
Do you install bro ?
Wow it's a beast
Ultimate 🤘🤘
Freakn beast!!!👍👍
literally Glass Shattering Bass!
Sir, I have 3800 watt 2 channel amplifier and one sony 12'' subwoofer (4 ohm) 420 RMS and 1800 peak power what are the best settings for these? please help me. I need deep and long bass.

Get a hole new system and I'm not being funny
Ok 😂😂😂
A man I have 2 15 inch skar subs on 2 skar amps at 1 ohm and built my first box in years I couldn’t decide on port so just went with old trusty too pvc pipe 4 inch box is 37 long 20 deep and 17 tall and gets down for what it is flexing shit but the low lows ain’t there the lowest it gets is 29hz and it’s not strong any ideas for port for me bro be great thanks
Eric Moffett aero port tune it to like 32-33 hertz
Eric Moffett you need at least two more cubic feet to accommodate those subs if you want the low lows
Ron Jay it’s a 4.5 cub I think
And u would need too know the model too tell me the air I would need lol there vvx v3 I hit a 146 sealed on the dash bit it’s higher bass
But If port was slot or aero it would tune it lower but idk what too make how far off bottoms box shit like that and hate too cut it now and not be right and have to patch this box up because it’s doing good where it is just always want lower bass
Song name?
What up Steve
whatup Marko!
bruh now that s power
if u look in slow mo with ghe playback speed the bass smashed the glass by pushing it into the box (im not saying the bass did not do it im trying to prove it did)
no it didn't. The bass and only the bass broke it.
meade916 btw what song did u use on the subs?
what the heck is that box tuned to? 85hz?
Its tuned low you goof
When using dd1 witch track is better for subwoofer amplifier?????
please read the book carefully. Your answer is in there. Thanks!
Where are you located
meade916 i have 2 12" rockford fosgate hx2 800 max power. with a boss 3000watt 1 ohm stable amp i have a 1987 chevy caprice classic what size box i need to make it drill????
Step 1 is ditch the boss
Your one crazy dude
wow...it "sucks"....literally..hahaha
musıc please ?
Meade proving haters wrong since....1990 at least!! prolly earlier
Love how you fucked up the whole parking lot in a few seconds!
How much do you think your tahoe is worth now with everything it has 60k?
jesus melendez
Can't put a price tag on a work of art.
Also I doubt he would ever reveal.
I've never seen a video of his where he discloses costs. He does it cause he is passionate.
How much would it cost?
How do you clean all that crap out of your port or the box? Looks like its full of garbage!
Not it just stays there for the most part. :P
3/4 plexiglass should work
Loved it cool video
2 15s put together make one 18 and 8 15s make 4 18s so win win👍
2 15s have an area of about +-1600cm^2, one 18 has about +-1100cm^2.
2 15 make about 1 and a third. 8 15s have about 6400 cm^2
4 18s have about 4400 cm^2
If that'll break glass, imagine what it will do to an eardrum.
What does it do to the tailgate when shut?
makes a lot of bass.
Damn ! 🔊😈🕪🔥🔥🔥
What the song name?🔥
Sick
Notice the glass hitting the top of the port, I'm not saying that bass isn't fucking disrespectful as all hell, just noticed that it hits the port right before it shatters.
not both times. It barely touched the 2nd time as it pulled my arm towards it. That didn't cause the glass to break though.
Word,
You can say that's a smashing good time lol
Aren't you worried about glass getting into the box and damaging your subs?
nah. SMD Subs eat glass for lunch. lol
Haha where can I buy a set? Like foreal, looking to upgrade from my Skar ZVX 15s.
Smd subs will eat just about anything.
Damm.that shit is pushing some air
I can hear car bass
Abi ben sana ulaşmak istıyorum ya
I need dat box how much
#fakenews, clearly you bent the glass with your mind... Im on to you Steve Meade 🕵️
could damage subs.
*NO WAY*
CLEAN UP ON AISLE ONE...
I'm sure the ride has no windows (left).
considering you are looking at the ride and it still has all it's windows, i think you are wrong. lol
That was wild XD
Lorddddddd
