This is a discussion on sensor spl checked tonight...... within the Audio/Video Electronics forums, part of the General Discussion category; got the new termlab sensor system in and set up. i don't know wtf. i lost my placement jig, so ...
got the new termlab sensor system in and set up. i don't know wtf. i lost my placement jig, so i had guess the exact placement for the sensor. the best i threw was a 148.4 or .8 (one of those 2) @33hz. i'll tackle deeper into it this weekend. my coils were also good and warm by then.
what exactly is this sensor system you installed.What does it do and were does it go ?
the sensor is the new meter system replacing the mic at competitions. from what i have seen so far, peoples numbers are 5 to 7 db less using the sensor than what they would be with the mic. for comparison, idbl_fanatic broke his front windshield with a 149.9 on the sensor. i just have to make sure i am above a 154.2 old mic numbers.
is this sensor pricey and what does it connect to a laptop or something

lucky-
not too bad, like $640 with shipping to get started. yea, i run it off the laptop.
idbl-
the termlab, you know, from ol' wayne harris enterprises. the one he offers on the termpro site.
LMAO, no, I meant your stereo system............
dont worry 95--i thought he meant the same thing

good score... whatcha running?
i wasn't sure which one. i almost posted both, but i thought you might have already known what i was running from my other posts.
2 treo ssx 15's, 2 autotek mx 5000's. now that my mind has cleared, i did a consistent 145.7, i accidently left my drivers window down (getting hot in the closed up cab) when i did the 148. here's a trick that gained me a half a db or more last night. to better in phase my subs and electrical signals, (2- 2 ch amps) i put, say L ch to coil 1 on sub 1 and the R ch to coil 1 on sub 2. then i took R ch on amp 2 and put it to coil 2 on sub 1 and L ch to coil 2 sub 2. none the less, i don't like that number, even though it is an sql set up. i'll be doing some more fartin' around this weekend.
Or you can just set the gains with a DMM ;)
yea, i do that on all amps. L & R running highs if there are seperate gains for the channels, match gains for 2+ amps on subs, etc.. way back when started studying into the deep technical part of audio, i saw where a guy claimed up to a 3 db loss(with the same total power), using a differernt amp for each sub, in a 2 sub, 2 amp system. due to the fact that the speed that the signal travels through the 2 amps, will not come out in perfect phase to the subs. i did so much trying this and that, in so little time, not letting the coils cool, and farting around, i can't give a dead on gain for what i did. i know it was at least .5 db. i'm thinking it was more like 1 +, but i prefer to be conservative when guesstamating. if you ever have the opportunity, give it a try and let me know the results you get.
