You're an idiot.

what do you do if for some strange reason your 16 volt battery bank (charging at 18 volts) goes flat therefore you will need a jump start but you dont know anyone else that runs 16 volt batteries, do you need a 12 volt starting battery at the front or is everything getting power straight from the voltage step down moduals? i am pretty intrested in going with 16 volt batteries because i already have 2 350 SMD alternators from mechman with a ajustable voltage regulator that will charge 16 volt batteries with no problems and because i have not bought any batteries yet i figure it may be worth looking into, only problem is i have never seen it done before so im not sure how safe it is to go to 16 volts.

How in the everliving hell does that box work?

Comments like this make it impossible for people to learn. When someone is given scientific evidence that what they are saying is not true, they keep spewing trash out of their mouths, blaming cheating and lying on the testers part, it infects others around them. People like you are why the rest of the world hates our country. Sarcasm eludes you...... And NOOOO People like YOU good sire. This is what happens when you dont frequent the forum, or YOU look too hard into the individual words instead of the sentence as a whole, or ad your own tone to the sentence instead of EASILY picking up on the sarcasm. HOORAY... Ans way to go on bumping an old thread..YOU are going to fit in AMAZING here i am sure.... lolz

lulz hexibase. There is no woofer on the planet that could be as awesome as he is......

I read that really fast the first time and it sounded racist the first time like I thought you hated asians lol. And then I remembered I had the perfect .gif for that!

x2 on the Hifonics suggestion. I also suggest testing some Audiopipes. Those are the top two most controversial brands I say. Some claim they do rated and some hate them.

lol, 150 watts max, i still do not understand how you can produce an amp and claim on the box it does 10 times the power it actually puts out, like I said before, these types of products help create some idiots, and teeth grinding questions in the forums, LOL I would like to see some Hifonics get ran on this, its a very controversial amp line, tons of people claim rated, tons of people say they are shit.

502....Anyone guess it? i didn't see. lol

Ya I think. its just some cheap 0 gauge. More like 2 gauge lol

You will find the application guide on the right side of the website. Just put in your YEAR, MAKE, MODEL, and other info and see what fits. If there is not a direct fit the guide will give you some options to look at using. Always better to measure and make sure it works before ordering. http://4xspower.com/

This really makes no difference to me, but I hate seeing people throw away hard earned money on paperweights! I have seen a bunch of used battery postings on the forums over the past couple weeks and they really make no sense. Just in the past two weeks I have seen postings of people selling used batteries and when they show the voltage of the batteries they are in the 10V, 11V, and low 12V range.................. and no one asks a single question of why they are so low??? This should be the first warning sign to stay away. Educate yourself on your purchase before you waste your money!!!!! Any time you store a sealed AGM battery below 12.6V you can cause damage to the battery. When the battery is stored below 12.6V you can get sulfation that builds up on the led plates in the battery, which in turn takes surface area away from the battery's ability to produce power. This sulfation can also cause the battery to short out internally. Another thing is that just because the battery shows 12.6V or higher doesn't prove the battery is in great shape. Heck the seller may not even know the battery is damaged, because the battery is not currently being used. A bad battery can look great as far as voltage goes when you charge it up, but as soon as you put a load on the battery it can fall on its face. Then you just payed how ever much on a used battery that can be used for a paperweight or you may be able to get $3-$6 out of recycling it. Buying used batteries is a risk! I dont care if it is an XS Power battery or any other battery it is a risk. Can you find used batteries that are still in great shape? Yes of course you can, but if you see pictures of the voltage and it is crazy low.............. then my advice would be to stay clear or don't be upset when you get the battery and it is worthless. Saving that $30 on that used battery you just bought really just cost you a lot more than buying a new one. Again its your money and you can do whatever with it, but it amazes me to see people buying useless batteries and wasting their money. You invested in your audio system with the Subs, Amps, and enclosure, so it really makes no sense to go the cheap route on the electrical and not get the return on your investment. Your amp and subs are useless if you dont have the proper power to give them.

yes.. and i wanna see the graphs shown both ways (blue over red, then red over blue) with a better graph resolution around the 20-200 hz range (he said he did a wide band sweep i believe?) He never measured any sound at all. He used an accelerometer to measure how much the metal moved... sound waves interpreted by an inanimate object is movement. Edit: oh no i got more to say here You sir are fucking retarded. NO i never answered your question, i was never conversing with you to start with. and WTF do you really think a sound wave is anyways? oscillating matter causing compression and decompression of a medium (in our most commonly perceived state: gas) vibrating our ear drums, to be converted to electrical impulses, interpreted by our brain as sound. lets break that down since i'm really starting to suspect that you truly are remedial here. oscillation= movement compression/decompression = movement vibration = movement And here's the advanced one, electrical impulses. yes electrons.... you guess it, moving!

I complete agree with single layer tests like this.. but for the money I triple layer my roof and I got good results, on the other hand never tried anything else. Down fall is I had a real hard time with adhesion on my roof even after I clean and everythng.. maybe if second skin would cut smd members a nicer deal, I would really switch over... jmo.

This is bullshit. There is no fucking way that peel and seal is not hte shit. You rigged this. Fuck your transducer and all that scientific testing equipment mumbo jumbo. Peel and seal and spray foam for life.

^^^install is looking good!!

Just like the topic says, GROWN FOLKS BUZINESS! If you wanna post cool stuff of ANY subject, ;) after 300 posts you can ask for permission and maybe youll get in! Only those who plan on contributing once in a while will be considered. ;D PM myself or Dave "the Admin" for a "key" EDIT: the post count has been raised to 300 due to "issues". If your lucky enough to have gotten in your still in but everyone from now one needs more now. thanks.
