Great video! I just came over from the link you posted on a post in bassheads on a budget❤ Those were some damn good numbers❤

Think this would be worth while in about a 1cuft sealed box for a single? I have limited space i am willing to give up and the max air space is a hair over 1cuft. I have some decent components in the doors and just want a bit more lows/mid to help round out the sound while staying fairly lite and not getting in the way. Its a "toy" that is daily driven and sometimes tracked.

Have you tested out the bass lift?
@BadLabCustomz9 күн бұрын
Yes works just like an LC2i with the accubass, you simply start with it set to 0, turn up the volume until your bass seems to taper of, increase the the signal, bump the volume up again until it start to do it again (if it does, my HK7logic has two points where it eq's down) and then repeat, great little LOC for sure!

@@BadLabCustomz your video gave me the confidence to buy this lil thing over the LC2i (trying to save money) I'm loving it so far it definitely sounds way cleaner than the NVX loc I had before. The bass lift is way better too NVX s XBoost sounded horrible

@@barrera719 so yes I sell @ctsounds products i want to be completely transparent, and unbiased, there are some things they have that I am not a huge fan of vs the market but there is some great value gear, this LOC is one of them and as you can see in the video with the help of a DD1+ we proved it, I have seen 'name brand' LOC's clip at 1v out, my top 3 LOC picks are the Audio Control LC2i pro, SMD LOC these are hard to find now i'm unsure if they still make them and for the budget LOC the CT Sounds LC2, I now keep these in stock! should be a link in the description if you need a coupon!

Idk bro. If u got people calling bullshit on the 138 you can imagine what im thinking on the 145+. So u gained 7 db just by getting rid if the factory head unit bass roll off? And at 29 hz??? I cant lie. Very hard to believe. Im subscribed for now simply bc im hopin u show more proof bc right now idk about that. Never seen a pair of 8s do 145 in any setup Looking forward to more tho
@BadLabCustomz13 күн бұрын
Was basically doing a 138 at about 75% volume and the same at full volume so yea a lot of roll of at that point, first round of testing was outside as well, temps were a lot higher, what I posted was the car in my shop over night with an ambient temp of around 70F vs 100+ prior, wasn’t shocked at the difference, going to do a slightly different box shortly after I log some more RF testing

@@OGYELLOW suvneer usually include some black pan head self tappers, we generally tape (3m double sided, dont cheap out on this part buy the 22lb? one most hardware have it available)set the strips up on the part first, clean the bar down nice along the contact point with 90% alcohol peal a small section back (few inches) tack into place line up your other end and pull the tape cover out slowly pushing it into position as you expose the tape to the contact surface (helps to have someone help you) you only get one shot at getting it straight!

Thats awesome!! I have 2 Q class kicker 8s right now in my 20 ram 1500 but getting a 2.5" seatlift and gonna get my builder near me to build my next ported box for 3-8s. I believe i can get about 2.5-2.7cu net after sub and port displacement under my seat. Trying to decide if i wanna run 3-X8 v4s if they ever come back in stock or 3-U8s or the b2 rampage 8 v2. I like lows but not anything really under 30hz im more into 30hz on up into the 40hz range i like some lows but like that hard knock.Might look into those ct mesos 8s but i definitely wanna hit atleast 140db lol. I know ill do it once i take my back seats out an put 2 or 3 15s ported back there lol. I have a Synergy WFO 3.1 amp for m which ever 8s i decide on.
