[@RYDENROAM72]

i love this video. this gives me an idea of what Competitions are like. I just went for my first one, it was great i loved it. Here in Hawaii on the west side of Oahu its usually sponsored by Quad Fathers SPL LLC.

[@originalflix6733]

I like how your always smiling in your videos, it shows that your proud of what you worked hard to get :)

[@walts440]

Your videos are sweet my man. Keep them coming.

[@DJInclined]

The b-roll footage on this video was excellent. Very nicely done man. Having me film so you can concentrate on the screen is the way to go. Nice work.

[@bassboylowg]

Lol'd at the 20,000 watts. Awesome video as always good sir!

[@tammyforbes2101]

And I’m over here just trying to get 150db out of the trunk on 2k.

[@EXOcontralto]

That's hard to do! I needed 4.5k to get a 150 in my Saturn Ion trunk.

[@BARBELLS-AND-BUDS]

Nice dude pulling 2 trophies 🏆🏆

[@ChaseFLable]

Thanks so much for the video! Really got me exactly the information i was looking for! Do you plan on attending Slamfest this year? Would love to meet up for a demo!!

[@lowhertzhighspl]

He's hilariously entertaining

[@LegendaryGarageYT]

Nice video exo iv still fairly new to competing myself with my highest score a 157.4db at 47hz but you're so right between burp classes and music average classes depending on the organization you're in.... But your right anything can happen in the lanes but before going in the lanes there is a list of things before you get in the lanes and actually go.. Are the visors angled right, is the song or right tone is ready to go, is everything on, is the volume full tilt, are the seats in the right position, are the rpms up, and so many things that can make a difference of 1-2db on the meter

[@nicholasking29]

Thanks for the explanation on things, sir.

[@hayabusa2919]

Love sound systems that make you guess . Who's making those big sounds

[@BassThrashin]

Great video!

[@daytrace4635]

Wish you would come to the states dude thinking about doing a similar setup with 2 zv5 24"s or doing a forth order like jps not sure yet.

[@daytrace4635]

He might have moved, because demoing this car he even stated he wished it was like the competitions in America because its the same guy running them each time or something like that

[@212Tan]

EXO I need some songs for the 27-33Hz range for Slamology. What you got in mind that I can try out ?

i have two pure 12s in some shitty press wood box and a dc 3k amp they are in my brothers dodge neon the press wood is dry rotted i do have birch i need some tips how to tune a sub box for two 12s i m a newb in building boxes

[@iMilletos]

Hi EXO, I have a question. Do you warm up your subwoofers, and how? I mean before hitting SPL on the lane

[@lukeconnell1501]

I wanna meet you and hear you're system so bad man. comin to colorado anytime soon?!

[@mackie_p]

I love the songs you use and fuck running my system full on for 30 seconds, my amp gets suuuupa hot

[@420dportkid]

Ive always lived in the Midwest & with people getting pulled over, ticketed, cars impounded, seem like no one really cares about big bass anymore. It's sad. I've always had a box in my trunk even with strollers for the kids, even with my wife complaining about no trunk room. I don't know man. There's no competitions in my area. I haven't been to one in like 11-15 years

[@maufitted]

look that excursion !!!! damn !!! :0

[@jm1182]

Does anyone know where I can look up class restrictions for Midwest events????

[@sneakyadam8369]

What do you think about the DKI 15sDark Audio Industry 15s. Are they better than sundown audio. I have about 500 bucks for sub's.What is your recommendation.? Thanks for answer my question.

[@haatch999]

at 9:20 into the video i noticed something exo and its something i can sypathise in here in australia where i am there isnt much of a bass scene but im a bass head and as i was watching this i saw u not liking the note your subs where banging and thinking songs not good or its to low for the subs man all i got to say aslong as the end of the day you can jam some killer beats you should be happy as all hell its a awesome build sign off from australian bass pioneer....

[@danfoulkrod]

You going to boomin at the bass Sunday ? I'd love to hear little blue

[@christhopherlasher2828]

It's weird to know that you are hitting a 154 in the beginning and now you're hitting a 160 what did you do to gain the 6 DB

[@mrwolfe0812]

Dont know if EXO will see this, but can somebody tell me what the hell happened to his cone on the orange one at the end when hes alone? It looks fucked up around the dust cap.

[@psementalist]

Thanks Exo I had no idea it was so important to run the Air conditioner

[@BooM-HeadsshoT]

I did a big clap for ya bud!

[@BlaccKyle52]

So is there any type of bracket? Like for different vehicle sizes or anything specific.

[@EXOcontralto]

Bracket for what!?

[@BlaccKyle52]

EXOcontralto like when you go to contests or shows, is there like a car class & truck class or is it just show up with what you have & compete?

[@tammyforbes2101]

Terrxr_Gr52ve HSF yea there all classes Street super street pro comp all kinds of classes with all kinds of rules to follow.

[@JoseMartinez-qs7di]

Hey exo! Im new in car audio. I have a Z Eddition 2400 class D 1 channel amp. There is no label on the amp itself that tells me the actual Rms and ohms it puts out. I tride looking it up on line but had no luck. Is there a way to find that info so that I can match both sub and amp to get the best performance out of both?

[@petetreleaven827]

What brand of amp hifonics. I give hifonics 50-60% of what they state tops for rms. And that's still alot of variables, alt, big 3, what wire your running. Power supply is #1. Then you can decide how much you want to put in to get rms out of an amp.

[@petetreleaven827]

But your am a guy stated he was pushing 2 kicked comp cvr's 15" if that is true it's pushing enough for 2 15's at 1,000 rms a piece. So there you go. I'd go with two subs at 800 rms each. Then decide how much room you have for a box so you can find the right subs for your space and amp limits.

[@kaamiljahmezjaanfoster5795]

I’m Trying to get a good set up. Tell me about massive audio fosgate p3’s nvx or precision power. I wanna get 3 10’s or a set of 12’s for my 2001 bmw e38. Can you please tell me which one to go with and what Hifonics Brutus amp.

please to learn that this does not hurt your ears (audiologist)

[@mexiko24572]

how do you do a port configuration on the box in your car? want to do 2 18s in my truck

[@darrellbrooks5832]

mexiko24572 me too. I'm hoping he will answer these ?'s in the next Q&A

[@invisofupa78]

Hey EXO love the videos. I have a question for you. Is playing music like dj slow n throw safe for my setup? I have an sound qubed HDC-3 18" in a box tuned to 33hz an 1.5kw and my buddy is telling me that anything below 30hz isn't safe. Is this really true?

[@fornarnia8]

My understanding is that you can find out about what you can safely play by multiplying your tunning frequency by .75. So for your system, 33 x .75 is 24.75 hz. Then, all you have to do is set your subsonic filter to that number and in general, you should be safe. Just pay attention to your subs and look to see if they're bottoming out or anything when you play that low. Each system is different. Hope this helps :/

[@NightmarexFRx]

Below 30Hz (28Hz) is where you start getting into subsonic frequencies which means you could be potentially playing much louder than you realize because you can't hear it. You can only feel it. Maybe that is what your friend is thinking of. If you mean safe for the equiptment, you could be hitting the "xmax" or the maximum possible excursion or even simpler: the furthest your cone can move backwards or forwards from its resting position. Pushing your sub to the xmax can be dangerous because the audio is technically clipping on the subwoofer end. Usually it sounds like your subwoofer is bottoming out if that is the case. The lower the frequency, the further the sub will travel forwards and backwards, this is true, but the amount of power you are pushing your sub with also factors into excursion. I recommend experimenting with it. Get test tones from 19Hz through 35Hz and turn it up as loud as you will ever have it. Try 35Hz, then 34, then 33 etc. as soon as you hear irregular sounds (mechanical or audio based) set your sub sonic filter if you have one (low pass is not the same thing) a few Hz over that mark. Then you wont ever have to worry about what you play. If you dont have one, get one or only play music above that frequency... if you go below, no worries, just turn down the volume a bit so you dont get that noise.

[@andrewtaylor1256]

when are you going to use your Psi platform 5's?

[@Supercharged1976]

When he get's more Lithium battery power and his bigger Nendo amps.

[@xclusivekid123]

I have a question, I'm looking to update the music in my car but nothing like what you do lol.. wanted to know what type of suspension should I get? I'm only updating existing speakers and adding 2 small amps as well as a small box.. any info is greatly appreciated..

really loud great exo

where are the shows I'd like to go to one but can't find one in Florida

[@hybridzofficial6357]

where can we find car audio competitions in different country, like is there a website or facebook stuff about it ?

[@Supercharged1976]

You're 3k's are only putting out 1400 each? Box rise or voltage drop or a combination of both?

[@4b11turboking]

what do you use when you do your burps

[@hertzsogood833]

hey exo, i was wondering how to tune my hifonics amp that has the wave length adjustment? I cant seem to find a happy medium. love the vids!

[@abrahamdominguez1896]

I'm not exo, but have you tried taking it to somebody who was a sound processor?

[@hertzsogood833]

I live in a dump of a town where 99.9% of people that install/sell audio do the whole turn it up all the way thing becuase they have $300 wal mart or American bass junk. I have a way larger knowledge on the tuning aspect, however this is the first time I've had an amp with that adjustment. no o scopes or smd dd1 here amywhere. thanks any info is better then none.

[@abrahamdominguez1896]

James Taylor I understand where you are coming from. My friend has a McIntosh car amp and it has a built it active crossover and he needed a sound processor to see where the speakers cut off...

[@hertzsogood833]

[@cristopherdelgado5978]

[@basshead3769]

i own Ground Zero Nuclear 12x 2k rms 12". What amp should i get? Budget around 350€

[@ledmk2]

Nice bass score, but why not use sound insulation inside the enclosure ? empty enclosure never give good low bass

[@pmcalis1111]

The hell?? Insulation or polyfill is used to change the internal volume of your box to make the subs feel like they are in a bigger box. If you have enough room no polyfill is needed.

[@pmcalis1111]

Has nothing to do with good low bass. That is all in proper tuning and box building.

[@ledmk2]

You ever try it or hear it? i think not, Then try it and you will hear alot difference

[@pmcalis1111]

+MMD what have you tried it on. What subs and what type and size boxes?

[@pmcalis1111]

+MMD probably just haven't had the box built correctly would be my guess.

[@couchaudio5755]

Does anyone know of someone with a spl meter to be able to see where I'm at in DFW area? thanks and keep them coming EXO. Awesome videos

[@jayzilla4rilla35]

What's the trick to adding a huge system to a Mercedes ML63 with the garbage Harmon Kardon? I don't need to keep anything from stock so what does it need to keep everything else functioning properly?

[@TimpBizkit]

It would be interesting if an SPL competition used a sweep from 35-80Hz and the highest average was the winner, with points reduced if it's 10dB or more from flat.

[@sick1k912]

Exo where did you get the migos song you were playing

[@Corruptedd]

Exo is my inspiration to save money for smart things (subs) and keep working hard :D

[@Iaiashgamer]

@exocontralto hey,I need some advice on what type of sub to get dd z3 or sundown team or fi please give.me your opinion ... a single 18 or 15..have a dd m4b

[@BlakeSVP]

Hey exo I have two 18s and two amps each sub is 1500rms each amp I have is 1500rms would it be best to strap them since they are strap able and get 3000rms at 2 ohms or have each amp running Each sub for 1500 at 1 ohm

that cracked cone? could that be where your tenths are going?
