During my wonderings across cyberspace, I saw the word PSI, and was rewarded with
THIS!!! Apparently a video of the first Beyond Audio PSI prototype doing its thing. Enjoy fellas.

that is awesome, how much power are they putting into it???

Phil, those braham vidoes are insane arent they
they have a new one now, where a guy cracks the frame arround his passanger window from burping at 170.3db

psi rocks
carn't wait for 2 gen of it meant to be around 100kgs
oh and the PSI in the vid can play music aswell apparently

From around the place:
Next PSI will be between 100-200 pounds, depending on basket I think. Don, you around?
Oh, and the 1st two are now in an SQ system. Mmmmmmm, bet it could get a flat RTA reading a mile away

Not trying to turn this into a DD post but you can't go past this, a 9515 hooked up AC main power, blows part of the basket and still keeps going
the links should work
and open ac test 9515

if u look at the basket b4 it is connected it looks stuffed already. if it is the same vid as the one i got

Yeah, I think that bit was just taped on. If the basket couldn't survive a burp less than 10kw, I'd say it has issues...

I saw on termpro, that this sub in question was damaged in transit and the offending bit was originally broken

just remember they are using mains power

Bah... US mains power is less than ours... 120V AC.. Our 240V AC on the other hand... lets do some maths..
Power = Voltage^2/Resistance
So into 4 ohms..
Power = 240^2/4
That means a wopping 14,400 Watts from our electrical outlet. Playing a constant 50z or was it 60Hz tone... Test your subs on that!!!
At 2 ohms and 1 ohm respectively.. 28,800Watts and 57,600Watts... I doubt your house fuses will stay intact for these anyway.. even with the 4 ohm load.
Power = Current * Resistance
So depending on your house fuses are ratings you can figure out how much power you can get before it blows.
The US has a 120 volts on tap so that works out to be less at 3,600Watts at 4 ohms again at 50 or was it 60Hz.. I'll leave ther rest of the maths for you to work out if you are interested.

Problem is you can only draw about 10 amps from most sockets. So actually limited to less than 3kw...

Australian power is at 50hz, US power is at 60hz

righty then, have a look at about 39 seconds and what does the multimeter say, 218.4v??? only using 120v hey....
and it is doing 6000 watts, W=EI watts= voltage X amperage current
Thus being 218.4v x 28.8 amps = 6289.92 watts
US main are 60 Hz
If you have a look in the same link but look at the video called thump10_110ac, $20 sub on mains, 110 vac 60Hz 3025 watts

I like that, EVEN with a 4Ω load hahaha. Generally to connect things to mains, we use like 50kΩ

Whoopsie...
Yep P = I^2 * R
P=IV
V = I*R
Therefore P = I * I * R
hence P= I^2 * R
BUT something has slipped my mind... The circuit is AC so requires different calculations... I don't think in this situation it will be just Voltage * Current as the woofer has inductance... stuff it...I didn't really like electrical engineering anyway...
The point was.... Australian power outlets deliver more power depending on how many amps the fusebox will put up with.

hehehe
BTW: Seems even 15Amp sockets dont like near short circuits. Me n krase discovered that one

we have had a single inhuman with 2 amps and 12.8v has hit 148 thatw as just chucked in at the last min. that in the sig is a upcomming project. one of many
