  1. The person who owns the car gets a ticket...NOT any points though...so u just make the person who was driving pay...
  2. I liked this place alot...until David changed my name to Chubby
  3. Maryland makes too much money off of em... cool as hell u guys get off though...
  4. If you really want the names to display....try angling two on the sides and one in the middle FTW...
  5. my sis has a full time job and lives far away...plus im not insured on it...but that would have def been better...
  6. OK, Im back....Well first off I would like to say that Donnie was not the installer, but he is the manager there...There is only one installer there...Anyways, he started by telling me it doesnt matter what size the ground is compared to the Positive, it all has to do with the amperage...and how 8 gauge can pull up to 60 amps... well my amp pulls 80 amps...OOOOOKayy...then he tells me that their shop is rated 7 in the nation for satisfaction and they win all these competitions for SQ...blah blah blah... Then I showed him the wire, and how he ran the ground so shitty...He then said oh, well Ill have to talk with him about that. Sometimes he gets in a rush and does that... Well what does that have to do with setting it up incorrectly... He also said that it all has to do with how much my sister paid to how big the wires are...BULLSHIT.... All he came up with is excuses...At least he was polite, and told me he is happy I came in and he'll give me a call tomorrow to tell me than things have been taken care of...By the end he understood where I was coming from and was very understanding... well thats all for now... Im a little more happy now...I doubt it will change the installers bad habits...
  7. I'll be on the way in a half hour lmao... EDIT: I WILL BE THERE IN A HALF HOUR...
  8. what power range are you looking for in an amp...nearly every amp out today is at least four ohm stable....
  9. The reason for it is that 3 letter words will bring up a lot more unwanted results than something with four or more letters.... For example, your "Fi" search would yield results with FIxed, FIller, FInkster (me hehe), and so forth...In a perfect world the engine would match up the words exactly, but until then that is why i think it is setup like that...
  10. ok, so im going up there in a couple hours. Gotta wait to get my siblings of the bus. I figured going up there i will leave a greater impression on what he did wrong (rather than talking on the phone)....Not to mention Im bringing in that piece of shit 8 gage ground wire he ran so him and his fellow employees can see... Hmm maybe there will be a couple customers I can scare away too Update coming shortly...
  11. Did you try grounding your RCAs? Ive seen this problem fixed a lot from doing that
  12. road trip son, take me with you...
  13. haha yea she gets like that sometimes. Yea if it was someone other than family i wouldnt touch their shit. Just the fact that I didnt want to see my setup go in the shitter...or possibly her car lol... I also explained to her exactly what i did and when she found out Donny fucked her over she was pissed... DOUBLE EDIT: I also need to get some guts pics of the amp for shits and giggles, cuz this is the one octane series ROE doesnt have...
  14. Oh believe me I will let you guys know. Unfortunately since i dont have a car i will most likely call him, unless my buddy takes me. It just pisses me off that "Donny" got paid 100 dollars to do a shitty job. Its also my old equipment, and I care about it just as much as my sister does.
  15. so my sister came over today and she went to the store with my mom. She has my old system in her car, 1 12" L7 on a PG Octane R 15.0:1 amp. She took it to Myer Emco to install it, she said she didnt trust me to lol.... While she was gone, I decided to look over her amp settings to make sure they were legit....so I fold down the back seats and this is what I see.... and Im like WTF...Did they really use an 8 gage ground with a 4 gage power wire.... and sure enough... so I call her and ask what the name of the person who installed it, she said some dude named Donny, and how he does legit work and hes high up in the ranks there and i dont know what im talking about lol....then she bitched about how theres a small popping noise from the sub every time she turns the car on.... Well I guess so, i take out the ground and see... the ground wire was a foot over what its supposed to be, and here is how he sanded the ground...LOOKS LIKE SHIT...and the other side that goes into the amp looked like this... he bolted it in and squished the jacketing, not the copper, which was already too small of a wire in the first place.... So I fixed it for her, I just happened to have some 4 gage laying around (although the thread count was a little less but it will do for now. It just pisses me off that people are actually getting paid for this shit.... i got the number to the place and Im going to call them up tomorrow (closed on Sundays)....and bitch to this "Donny"...Matter of fact I live close enough ill drive there and show him the ground wire he used and fucked up. ANYBODY CLOSE TO FREDERICK, MD DONT GO TO MYER EMCO....I been in the shop once and actually thought it was nice, they got a nice JL and Monster display...o well, goes to show u stupid fucks can be anywhere. Anyways, all is well now and it sounds like it should... New ground spot...less than a foot from the amp... Much better
  16. Tahoe is def legit for 4 15s. suburban = more gas... it boils down to if u want more room or not.
  17. abosolutely...my step dads dell had a small part right inside that had to be solderedback on, had nothing dto do w the battery, but that sumbitch got hotter than a pizza box on your lap...

  20. QFT = Quoted for Truth usually meaning u agree with what the person stated
  21. "MANSFIELD, La. – Authorities arrested a 32-year-old Texas man on drug charges on Thursday after construction workers saw him on his hands and knees, eating mud and growling like a dog. A woman who accompanied the man from Texas told investigators he had been wandering around the complex and eating dog food. Sheriff's Lt. Horace Womack said a small bottle of PCP, a half-pound of marijuana and one-fourth ounce of crack cocaine were seized during the man's arrest. The man was booked with possessing all three drugs with intent to distribute them. He was placed in a cell where jailers at the DeSoto Detention Center could keep an eye on him." Hot damn that had to be a sight
