I got a new Speakerpower 4000 to power each sub individually now and found out that Marks programming was limiting the drivers severely and chopping off the extra 40-60hz bump that the Harbottle has. Also the limiting of the power was severe unless It was wired down to 1ohm and then it unleashed the full power of the Amp. I have sent the amp back to speakerpower for reprogramming and received back the Amp and wiped out Mark's programming and it's back to default and man what a difference. The Harbottles are just incredible vicious accurate monsters. Just one Harbottle is 6db greater than both of the F18s combined and at .25% distortion which is unheard of. I have yet to make the video on the story of the sub swap but will make it soon. Thanks for watching. 🍻
Dude are those subs cost 2600$ a piece?? If so there’s no way the dayton audio sub that mark built the F18 off of is a 2-400$ driver so im looking at SI new SQ line of 15” driver and have like 4-8 of them in the back of my room
Yeah man inflation is a killer. I got them for $1500 but I ordered them back in June but now they are $2k USD. Yeah the Dayton was just on sale but there's a huge difference between the subs of course tp justify the price difference. Even Stereo Integritys Carbon 18 has a lower QTC, 1k rms lower rating, and isn't a underhing design and they are $1k for now but I'm sure he will up the price also when his current stock of parts runs out. 🍻
Great video, thanks, I learned a lot!
Glad you enjoyed it!
So are you using this with the F18 amo? Using Mark's EQ /limiters set for the Dayton driver?
