Awesome video! Can you make a video on car (cabin) size and its relation to bass. For example, given the same power, amps, enclosure and sub, what car would sound louder? Inside and outside of vehicle
I’ve learned allot from you and I thought I knew basically everything there was to know about subs I been messing with car audio since I was 10 at my pawpaws junkyard I learned by making all of that blue magic smoke lmao 😂 but you are a legend brother Rn I’m in a 01 2 door GMC jimmy with a alpine Mrd-m1005 v12 mono amp @2 ohms pushing a pair of American Bass XD 15s and it’s not too bad maxed out my db meter at 130plus dbc and dba so idk it’s it’s 134 but it’s over 130 for sure meter reads hi lol
Yeah I agree man. I have been in car audio for about 25 plus years myself and had to refresh my memory and update with all new electronics that came out. I'm showing the younger generation here on all kinds of Electronics using all my education I got under my belt. I enjoy every bit of helping and showing anytime I can man.
whats crazy is people that leave reviews or comments on subs its usually right after a purchase or repeating what they heard, they don't really have time with it to see if it even stands the test of time... like skar subs if you play loud ofter they don't really last trust me all that marketing they do ain't cheap 30% of the cost is that you buying a inferior product but if you in a budget great came to the conclusion they are just not the quality I'm looking for and 2nd is everyone has a different subwoofer box if you have a high quality box you can make almost anything sound good but if you got the best subwoofer in a shit box it wont sound good normally you want to run a sub as efficient as possible, meaning using the largest cone for your application but having the space to let it run right if you have 2 15s in your honda accord man you just throwing power at stuff someone with 2 8s with a proper enclosure will give you the business I promise you that cant really take what anyone says because you have no idea wtf they are doing with them bunch of non sense all over the internet
PA Style speakers though are not for SQ/SQL/SPL... they're for volume & throw. That's why live concerts don't sound great, just loud. In car audio (even the new Kicker PA Style speakers), SPL systems sound like crap for SQ/SQL. I have a neighbor with a $50k+ lifted truck and his system is good on bass and LOUD but sounds like muddied water (shite)... PA Style speakers. If you want "deeper" bass", buy subs with a lower Fs and build a proper box, true!
Hey man it was great to meet you and your wife at the sundown show looking forward to seeing more of you videos. I'm just getting back into car audio and have alot to learn
So if you have 2 of the exact same subwoofer make and models but one is an 8in n other a 15in. They are going to sound the same at volume 1 to 40? I thought cone area is king? If thats true than subwoofer sizes differ? Lol I agree with just about all your videos Jerry n I like your channel probably the most but I don't agree. 18s play lower n deeper than the same 10s will.... also 18 is slower or take longer to recover after a note because of all the mass moving vs a 8... physics bro...
I watch a lot of your videos my hats of to you for SHARING knowledge I've always been a bass head and haven't had anything serious until now and I've learned a lot from this channel
Kinda sucks that most of the Facebook pages have people in it that give shit info to these people trying to start or actually need real accurate info. When I started it took me months to get info I needed. I wish there were more videos like this when I was clueless on everything.
That move slower concept is for the 89/90's era of car audio. If you compare power rating for then to what you have now. It's a whole different beast. You had 5k on 20 speakers using 10 amps, now you have 20k from one amp on 2 speakers. People use 5cf of box to a single speaker at times. Past that size box was 2 18's on a rf power amp. It's old information trying to be applied to today's tech. Same as there is no value in playing below 40 hz.
How do you determine how many rms your vehicle can handle safely as an everyday driver. I've seen ALT ×10 then battery AH ×10. Add those two up and minus half your factory alternator rating for vehicle consumption. Also how much more power do you recommend in terms of amp over sub.....say 1000rms sub.....1250rms amp.....25%?????
I tuned my 2 10s in my lexus to 28hz. It was deep and liked rebassed music. Enclosure enclosure enclosure. I can't believe this myth is still floating around.
Is a ported(vented) box considered a 4th order bandpass? I know cone are is king but what if you compare equal cone area with subs that have higher BL(motor force)? Same cone area but double the motor strength?
One of my favs has to be JAL cause he gives great info and answers my texts sometimes lol thanks for the advice . Idk a lot of these guys but video wise I’d like to hear loud grandpa setup he seams cool. I watch exo too.
I read double power is +10db. I just started a build where I'm going from 4 12s on 8000 to 8 12s on 16000 so will let you know what the result is. It made 156.8db with 4 12s I'm hoping to break 160 with the new setup. 😎
can you tell me what the best cubic ft and specs i can do for my dual vxf 15's and size port and tuning for my two 15's ....i watch ur videos alot and have subscribed to your channel could you help me out

Hello. Can you touch on, on the fs and vas on subwoofer box design please. Thank you so much
Bass guitar players typically use 10 inch speakers.
I’ve learned allot from you and I thought I knew basically everything there was to know about subs I been messing with car audio since I was 10 at my pawpaws junkyard I learned by making all of that blue magic smoke lmao 😂 but you are a legend brother Rn I’m in a 01 2 door GMC jimmy with a alpine Mrd-m1005 v12 mono amp @2 ohms pushing a pair of American Bass XD 15s and it’s not too bad maxed out my db meter at 130plus dbc and dba so idk it’s it’s 134 but it’s over 130 for sure meter reads hi lol
It’s sad how people don’t want to help one another in the bass world.
Always do...
Thanks Jerry for clearing up Myths that have been going around for years
Yeah I agree man. I have been in car audio for about 25 plus years myself and had to refresh my memory and update with all new electronics that came out.

I watch every video love this guy's additude. Doing my first big big build now .

Great info, I enjoy watching you videos !!
15's move to SLOW YES @10Hz lmao.... 80Hz moves quick no matter speaker size.
I watch a lot of your videos my hats of to you for SHARING knowledge I've always been a bass head and haven't had anything serious until now and I've learned a lot from this channel
You the man. Thanks for the demo!
thank you..
Yeah I totally get it. Everyone for themselves. Nobody helping anybody in those groups. Much respect for you figuring it out own your own. #BassHead
Thank ya for some info Jerry 💯
Kinda sucks that most of the Facebook pages have people in it that give shit info to these people trying to start or actually need real accurate info. When I started it took me months to get info I needed. I wish there were more videos like this when I was clueless on everything.
Do a what u want to put in your jeep like what setup would u like

exactly, everything changed
Your videos help keep it up
Agh man.. I never should have gotten this 9918 sc . It's so slow

You forgot everyone on fb is a professional... lmao
Jerry your the man I have learned so much from you
It was great meeting ur saturday man
you too.
I tuned my 2 10s in my lexus to 28hz. It was deep and liked rebassed music. Enclosure enclosure enclosure. I can't believe this myth is still floating around.
Thx Jerry!
So what’s a good fs for bumpin in a daily ?
Shake the Facebook
Hey jerry what do you think about the kicker l7 15?
Hello sir! I just shot you a message on your tik tok about this topic
My ddx 15s are stupid punchy lmao, more than my evl 12s were on the same power lmao sk3500
You're so right about these car audio snobs Jerry! It's a shame.
I'm pretty new to all this. When someone is shopping for windy subs what are some things I should look at in a sub? Hope this all makes sense
Is a ported(vented) box considered a 4th order bandpass? I know cone are is king but what if you compare equal cone area with subs that have higher BL(motor force)? Same cone area but double the motor strength?

I was told what ever you have. Your system. You need to double the ampage or double your woofers to get 3 more decibels? Right?
i've herd that but have no clue
I read double power is +10db. I just started a build where I'm going from 4 12s on 8000 to 8 12s on 16000 so will let you know what the result is. It made 156.8db with 4 12s I'm hoping to break 160 with the new setup. 😎
Sometimes the heavier cone and mass of 18s and above can and will play lower, especially having lower fs
I just got a skar zvx 15 dual 1 ohm, I having put it in power,do they hit hard?
Awesome man I wanted to do something like this but not good at talking to a camera keep it up man
take this as your motivation
can you tell me what the best cubic ft and specs i can do for my dual vxf 15's and size port and tuning for my two 15's ....i watch ur videos alot and have subscribed to your channel could you help me out
This man speaks the truth thanks bro bass on
What about a U10 sundown
Yea i wanted to build a 6th order for 8 12s in my saburban and couldn't find any help at all
