What you mean turn it down,On the gain?

@@josecunsako31 My bass knob lol.

@@SingleSubScrub oh I knew that 😅. Now you scary me if I should even get this amp for my 2-12” skar lol

@@josecunsako31 You'll be splitting the power between two subs, and if you are going full tilt use all of your senses. Make sure you aren't clipping, and most of all, use your nose. If something doesn't smell normal, it most likely means something is getting too hot. Allow them to cool off sometimes, or just don't go absolutely full tilt all the time. Lol

@@SingleSubScrub thanks for the advise! That shit was hitting hard doors moving and all sheeshh 😬

I do! I tell people give it the proper juice and just turn it up!

It plays fine open door, it was just perfect timing. Clamping way too much power for way too long, but wasn't inside the vehicle to smell it lol

@@SingleSubScrub I know, but when you have the doors closed your cabin has a certain resonant frequency where it peaks, it effects how the woofer moves and handles power. Loading and unloading is huge in a ported box. When it's playing full tilt and a door suddenly opens, it changes the frequency of your cabin in your vehicle drastically in a short amount of time WHILE the subs are already seeing big power and moving, that can be bad. Go open up someones door running huge power during a demo at a show and watch how bad you get beat up for unloading their shit lol

@@screwstonkcreppin3796 yeah i kinda felt the same way when watching it... i think him opening the door is really what done it in.

Unloading is a myth

Honestly it would have been fine if I had turned it down any sooner lol. The 8layer coil I put in it after did much better tho

Indeed! I've since gone up to 4" coils, and it's helped quite a bit!

I seen it to lol he was lying it was clipping like a mother fucker

you should those big amps are dumb unless you burp and have you ohm rise to min at that freq

You should grab a couple Smart Bass 8ks ! They kick ass

Eh I've done 10 re-cones just in the last year. I was jaded after like #3 😂

Nah I had demoed it full tilt open door numerous times. It just got way too hot, and I couldn't smell it outside the truck lol

It ate the power fine for short runs. The problem was I got out of the truck and let it keep eating without the ability to smell when it was time to cool down lol.

I have a resilient sounds Team 18 in a 6th now and it's nasty! Great amp, you'll love it!

@@SingleSubScrub I bet bro that’s a nice sub too I bet it’s nasty ! 153s !now ?

@@DJJDSKREWED 154.2 at 27hz!

@@SingleSubScrub damn that’s a nice gain and super low

A 3500 or 4500 at 1 ohm would be a great match if tuned porperly

It was a fun no wall. Did 152+ on music before I swapped subs and went b-pillar

I'd run higher voltage but I am on one alt feeding my vehicles ecu and whatnot as well. And running anything above 16.2 drastically shortens the life of the bank form what I've heard

@@SingleSubScrub what I did to combat the ho voltage to the. Ecu is run a 12-12 dc charger made by victron I use both my dual Alts for 16v then use the victron to run the vehicle, my vehicle draws about 33 amps max at cold start idle, I run two so I am not max either box out, they r 30 amps each

It's a beast! Absolute gem for the price.

It should get down!!

You can get a custom recone from directronix using an 8layer coil much like the zv6

Yes I made a wooden box with terminals to go in place of the old battery

I love the alt. I've have diodes charging 15.5+ and it works perfectly with the cmax bank I have.

I have a Power Bastards also. Nothing but good to say about them. I have reached out to other owners who have had their alternators for over a year from them and still going strong.

Considered it, but I'm going with something MUCH bigger I'll be announcing in a video soon.

Yes that's them

21 savage knife talk DJBRM

@@SingleSubScrub thanks👍

They're all great, but the smart series is more solid across most platforms generally speaking. Just my op.

I was thinking the smart or bass..so guess ill grab one of dem thanks

It's not the bass variant. It's just the regular.

@@SingleSubScrub ah, actually normal smart 5k is better, it has higher rail voltage of 178v, mosfets have 200v limit, in smart 5 bass they needed to use higher current mosfets to handle 0.5 ohms so they used 150v rail voltage with 150v mosfets basicly dead on maximum mosfet rating, has less power becouse of lower rail voltage, it can fail easier if theres some voltage ringing on rail or some voltage spikes, but still they are great amps, i hope to get one soon

​@@cheri758which one uses 150v MOSFETs?

I would go with the bass version

The regular smart has better internals then the bass version. See barevids breakdown of the amp for more details on this

@@cuh_2023 why is that?

@@Francofit able to drop it to .5 ohms and has and input not just one input two and won't hear vocals in your subwoofer

@@cuh_2023 no vocals so it kinda sounds like it’s underwater? I’ve heard that the quality of it isn’t that good and that the smart is better but I don’t know I don’t want to waste $500 to find out I don’t like it

I don't play decaf. and re-bassed songs are actually more safe, as you can tune your system for the exact level the song is mixed at. Just make sure you source them from a producer who knows what they're doing.

That box is 7.5 cubes

This did 152db on music fully sealed

@@SingleSubScrub whaaat😳 mine does a 146.6

Yes I'm running a completely different setup now though

on burst yes, continuous rms itll throttle around 5-6k from my experience

BareVids had a video comparing the two. Regular smart 5 has better internals

Definitely gave it a lil too much sauce lol

Lol I know my system, and how it's tuned. Definitely wasn't clipping at all. And you definitely haven't seen an Xv3 take 5k clamped all day. 3" coils top out around 3k clamped in terms of being able to play for long durations of time. The more power you clamp, the less time you can play before overheating.

Tell someone what they have seen or not is strange

@@agallo121 dude your amp is poop comparing to a smart 5. There no telling what hz that song is at plus we don't know the ohm load the amp was seeing when playing that song. All we know is the smart technology gave the subwoofer max power at any ohms making it heat up really fast

@@alanclark9000 okay so an Ampere 5k is poop? Really dude?. Check yourself . You obviously know nothing about components level circuitry. Or you would not of said that ludicrous remark without knowing what amp I have. I would not put that much power on them daily myself, that's for you number chasers I believe it just turns to heat after so much. I see guys do it all the time. I won't go down to thus level discussion on these basic antics but dude. Be somebody.

@@agallo121 smart 5 should be called smart 7 because it will put more out then what they are claiming

I ended up going with a single custom RS Team d1. New walled setup is nasty with it on way more power!
