Marko, long time no speak. Would be good to get listen one day. Great kit, good to see your back. If your ever moving on the 2250's let me know (probably be massive money but hey) Hope your good.

Re: Bass Cube that needs to be revived!

sorry to jump on an old thread. Could someone tell me what wattage the 4.7 ohm resistor is in the picture. Mine has blown like the picture. Both transistors have gone as well. Would anyone tell me what may cause this?

phoenix gold cyclone review with T/S paremeters Dumax

Hello all Well Cyclones still running well after nearly 8 years. I am looking for a fresh install soon and wondered if anyone had the scans of the 2 magazine reviews the cylone had. Especially the one when it was tested using the dumax machine. I think it was Ton nousiane car stereo review or the ot...

Re: 2 cyclones in a honda civic hatch in the uk

Its been a while since I logged onto the forum. Well I can confidently say I have 2 cyclones still dropping lows with no noise. I last cleaned them 3 years ago. I was thinking of changing the boot and adding more speaker enclosure as I know with the restriction on box space is really restricting the...

Re: 2 cyclones in a honda civic hatch in the uk

Evening all. Just letting you know the cyclones are still hammering it in the same install. No noise and last cleaned 3 years ago... I just wish I could have them running in about 4 to 5 cu ft box as these things would go so much lower... What a missed trick by the industry.. Oh well..

thanks

Well I can safely say they are still working after a year of playing. No mad noises. Still doing crazy lows but I would say a 3 cu ft box for 2 is very peaky at 40 - 50hz but it also controls excursion at very low bass. Your see in a wanted post my request for a basscube to tweak the bottom end. Ove...

lol, I feel corrected, more like a fussy, mad, pickie, stuck in his 1996 ways bass connoisseur. In truth there has been some great stuff out since but nothing has come close....

shared enclosure of 4 cuft with lots of wadding. Yeah it slams but I was playing pirates of the carribean tonight and the lows are just shocking. As for 3 cuft, yes its ideal and yes the size of box does limit some real lows of like 25 hz.. I have the theile smalls from the dumax test years ago and ...

60hz and above

Well after playing these I can safely break the myth or reality that they can't play above 60hz. They do.. But they just don;t do it with the same distortion as conventional speakers. However they are doing just fine. I would defo err towards a 3 cu ft enclosure per driver as 2 cuft restricts it a b...

thanks everyone for your comments. I have to say I do like this phorum. If I had more confidence in the reliabilty there would of been 2 zpa 0.3's and 1 zpa 0.5. But if they go wrong on the uk it is not easy to get fixed. So JL hd's it is. As for x-over points. I have heard so much about using clone...
