Hey guys! This is Kevin posting directly, and I want to thank you for taking the time to read this post! As I am sure you have seen us posting around the last few weeks, "Jet.com" is coming soon (1-2 months), and is anticipated to be the biggest e-commerce startup launch of 2015, having achieved some pretty big feats, such as already raising $80 Million series A funding, as well as cover's on the likes of magazines like Bloomberg's Businessweek! I am going to give you a quick insight to what Jet is all about, so you know what this post is about, and why it is worth signing up for so much more than just to win a free stereo! I am excited to know and have met on several occasions, the founder and CEO, Marc Lore, of Jet.com. His vision and passion for business is exhilarating, and I am happy to share it with you guys..

We will do a drawing with all usernames in a basket and pick one at random, posting the winner here.. What is Jet.com? From an article I published on LinkedIn.. Whether or not this is the first time you are hearing about "Jet.com", it most certainly won't be the last. Even if you happened to miss the nearly dozen articles published on "Jet" over the last two weeks, the company means serious business. Jet.com is potentially the most transparent startup ever, with a HQ that's based out of New Jersey, and has been quietly working around the clock over the last year or so to create what it calls "The Most Brilliant Way to Shop".. Jet is an e-commerce shopping platform that will sell millions of products, and on average be 10-15% cheaper than anywhere else online. Of course, the obvious question is how a new startup, boasting so many millions of products, is going to be cheaper than everyone else?! The answer is captivating and unique in it's own right. The business model of Jet is similar to the likes of the wholesale clubs such "Costco" and "BJ's", in which products are sold at nearly no profit. Instead the company will rely on yearly subscription fees to generate profit margin and subsidize the low costs. However, while Jet utilizes a subscription type model, just like the big club chains, it is unique in how it delivers. How Does Jet.com work? Jet uses sophisticated technology and algorithms on the back end, to derive the cheapest possible cost for the consumer based on several factors. The engine that drives Jet is smart enough to know that it needs to get the product from the closest possible fulfillment center (Jet will utilize "third party partner sellers to fulfill orders, similar to Amazon's marketplace, albeit a little more hidden to protect the ease and simplicity of shopping on Jet), therefore driving down wasted costs and passing those savings onto the customer. It also takes into account the type of payment method a customer uses upon checkout, further driving down cost. Furthermore, customers who purchase more than one item that can come from the same location in the same box, will see deeper discounts for every additional product added, increasing exponential savings. Utilizing the efficiencies of the supply chain as explained above will allow Jet to be an extremely transparent shopping engine, ultimately getting the end consumer the lowest possible price on nearly everything sold online. While shipping times should be fairly quick in general, Mr. Lore believes consumers are willing to wait an extra day or two for orders to arrive when the savings are going to be as large as Jet is going to offer. In fact, Jet is basically guaranteeing the cheapest prices online as long as you are a member. In Closing... Jet realizes how big their potential customer base is, which will ultimately drive the success of the company, and is planning on spending a tremendous amount of capital to make sure word spreads quickly. That being said, if you are interested in gaining early access to the site when it launches, as well as a free 6-month membership, I encourage you to become a "Jet Insider" and get important updates by clicking here. Thank you for reading, Kevin S -Founder and CEO, Skar Audio

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEv7TZPAgZc I created this video because so many customers call/email and want to know what comes in the 40 pound mix box of B Stock Damplifier/Damplifier Pro. The product contains trimmed factory error pieces of both Damplifier and Damplifier Pro, we try to keep it more Pro than regular, the pieces are hand trimmed to remove any unusable pieces and it results in a great discounted box for dampers on a budget. The B Stock does contain pieces that may have wrinkles, uneven edges, and/or +/- 25% butyl rubber thickness but are still made from the same high quality 100% American made butyl rubber and 6.5 mil foil as the A Stock Damplifiers. B Stock products are not always in stock as they only are available upon factory errors, but they do come back in stock in burst throughout the year so always check back if they are out of stock when you first check. The 40 pound B Stock box can be found and purchased here at: http://store.secondskinaudio.com/damplifier-damplifier-pro…/ In this project I used about 15 pounds of the 40 pounds of B Stock. I only did single layer coverage as I do not have a loud bass system or loud exhaust in this vehicle. The 40 pound Box can cover between 60-90 sqft enough to the average sized car floor, doors, and trunk area. Second Skin For The Win!!!!

guys, i am totally itching to get back on this! and i WILL! I never gave up on it, i am just a busy mothafucka....(for lack of a better term lol) and i called it the DGAF for a reason. I work on it when and how i feel. but that being said, i will be working on it again soon

BAM. JUST LIKE THAT! One minute we are all just bullshitting on the forum, the next minute someone has a new Pioneer double din. AWESOME!!

Here we go

Let me start out by saying this. I have NO CLUE what is going on with the AA SMD woofer. Every 3-6 months i hear "its going to come out". Lots of silence in between. I have a Van which needs woofers and a Civic which is almost done but needs the RE MT's replaced. I was planning on the v2 SMD subs for those projects. As of right now, i have no idea if that is ever going to happen. Any Joe off the street knows as much as i do. Nothing. That being said, while i wait to see what's going to happen, i have this 91' Toyota Tercel sitting there, with 2 cylinders still pumping out about 20hp of pure get up on a trailer power. I decided, i want to try something different. I am thinking i will wall this bitch all the way to the B-Pillar with a huge port and have some dont-give-a-shit fun with this car. In other words, its no Lexus ISF, i can do what i want, even if that is cut a hole, break glass, put sheet rock screws through the roof (with silicone for extra seal) (jokes ). This project is going to take some time. I wan't to do a 160 or better with it. I plan on using DC Audio Amps, possibly 2 or 4 9.0k's. I am going to focus on the enclosure first and use the entire trunk to power the beast. Now for my disclaimer. I have NO IDEA how the Tercel will meter. Some cars (CRX for example) are natural SPL number machines. They just WORK. The Tercel MIGHT do a big number, it might not. I can only try. So if i do all this work, and the number sucks, then ill just have to keep trying. I plan on showing just about every step and there will prob be some bumps in the road. I am willing to do whatever i gotta do though and i hope it at LEAST breaks the windshield :D Thanks to RUSTY at DC - i ordered up the Level 5 15's, and they were here in 3 days. And they are GORGEOUS. Just some early rough measurements to see what kind of space i have to work with. Not totally accurate but close enough to let me know my options.

HI i was hoping somebody in the know could answer if there is a difference between the motors of the m2 and m3. basically i have 4 m2 lvl6's now and want some more, im happy to recone my current woofers to match in the soft parts i just need to know if the motors are the same as i dont want to buy a 6-8 new subs when these motors are fine... plus there is bugger all of a market where i am for subs this big so on selling these and buying again is not really viable.... cheers

Sorry but the best way to describe what i heard is FUCK YA. Take it how you like...but this thing is so loud and goes so low, it's like a musical hurricane thanks for the great demo Jon!!

I feel you on the dgaf lol! Was cool to get a looksies at all the smd rides when I got to meet you at your shop during autorama(if you even remeber that night haha) Maybe one day I'll be able to get some demo's of these rides I know I'm bringing my truck next year....soo much fun! for real though ready for some progress on this car whenever your ready to do work

BAM. JUST LIKE THAT! One minute we are all just bullshitting on the forum, the next minute someone has a new Pioneer double din. AWESOME!! That is pretty sweet.. Good job Skar for doing this.
