      Yes, you can use them at the same time. Tuning might get a little tricky depending on your crossover points for the woofer, and it may limit what kind of crossover types you can use from your active crossover.

    Just wanted to chime in and say that I use both the basehead garage meter and the SMD amm1. I completely agree with Parker's assessment that they both work great and both have different usage. I love to run the watt meter mounted up on my system to feed me constant information about what my amp is doing. I also really love the portability of the SMD and the ability to clamp any of my friends or clients system on demand. They're both fantastic and I'm glad I bought both of them. No regrets here

    I had two 12” Kicker Comp VR’s (01C12VR4) in a small sealed box with 1 cubic ft per side back in the day. Those subs could get real deep and hit hard. I bought them because I’d heard various round Solo Barics and saw that the Comp VR’s could also work in small sealed boxes.

    Not much talk about the east coast (specifically NYC and the surrounding areas) picking up on Kicker with a few distributors and the whole crazy Free Air Scene. It seems to me by 1987 these speakers came out of nowhere and took over where companies like Cerwin Vega, Kenwood, Lanzar, etc just fell off and local dealers were saying, try these. The next thing for my group was to pull backseats out and put in 4 10’s or 12’s and then it was more of a question of, What are we going to power these with? Very modest this man is. Great Video! I’m now out of that whole game (mostly due to alternators and batteries being so damn expensive and not easy to replace) that now my older self is listening to podcasts and the factory stereos are now at another level and extremely acceptable.

    My biggest question is, why are we still waiting for amplifiers? Like why were the KX and IQ amplifiers discontinued and in favor of the CX and now barely the warhorse amps? The IQ amplifiers were sick! Still have mine and it's fully featured from teh bass knob being unique and innovative with it's controls and the built in controllable DSP. Felt like a next-gen amp, discontinuing them and rolling with just the CX ones felt like a step back a decade in technology. I suppose there is the key amps, but they just don't quite offer what I'd like tbh. The KX amps were cool too, but I wasn't a fan of the wireless bass knob. It's gotta be on the way for a new amplifier line right??

    • @KICKER-AUDIO
      @KICKER-AUDIO 5 днів тому

      Chip shortages led to the discontinuation of some DSP amps for a little while. I can't speak to product development and release schedules, however I personally would also like to see a new SQ-driven amp with robust DSP. But there's also the question of if there are enough guys like you and me who want them to justify it. SPL, Marine, and PowerSports demand are much higher. We do have the KXMA-Series of marine amps with some DSP features if you'd care to look into those.

For SPL competitions, yes. I'm an SQL guy myself, cut everything below 36 Hz @ 36 or 42db IMO.

    • @KICKER-AUDIO
      @KICKER-AUDIO 11 днів тому

      Hi @MrDashocker73, there was a 1% failure rate for the 49PTRTP due to overheating - it was very rare, and only under extreme (and not your normal use case) circumstances. Obviously, that's still too much to be acceptable, so we recalled and just re-released. If you haven't had any issues with your PTRTP, you're A-OK! The "fix" on the re-released ones was to dial back the power on the amp just a little, and add about 1 inch to the height.

    Is there any of your speakers lines that are tuned to a frequency other than A440 rothschild standard harmful frequency. I hear 417hz or 432 as well as a few others are good for sound and the body as frequencies affect the natural frequency in our bodies. A440 is a very slow unnoticeable body damaging frequency. No good.

    Question about the peak of a speaker. If the speaker is rated 100w rms with a peak of 300w, does that mean you can play a 300w signal through the speakers without blowing them as long as there are no clipped signals going to the speakers? I always go by the RMS wattage of any speaker thinking if I can match the RMS wattage without clipping they would sound great and I would never blow them.
