  1. Well, I know what my next set of 8's are going to be...
  2. So glad you posted this. I was just telling my wife the 2 weeks ago there was another way to wrap a cord. I used to do it as a kid (stepdad taught me) and then I forgot how to do it. SHO NUFF SMD has it posted on his site. Thanks. I bet this will work wonders for Xmas lights too! Hell yeah!
  3. Thanks for the update. I really want to put 2500 on each one of the Ethos, but to do it at 2ohm the conventional way isn't worth the price tag to me. Rather recone the subs and wire them to 1... The Taramps seem like they are holding up, as long as the vibration issue is properly taken care of... Thanks again
  4. How you liking the Taramps? Thought about buying the HD5000 2ohm to support the 12.5-13v situation I'm facing. I realized that I'm not dropping too much voltage (maybe a full volt at full tilt, as long as my batteries are topped off), which is ok to me and everything else is good to go. The Taramps have me interested, but the only thing holding me back is that I heard they don't like vibration to much. How did you get around this issue? I think by adding one more battery and securing the amp, or protecting it from vibrations, and I would be good to go...
  5. Want to follow... Want to see how you get around this issue. I strapped another Q2200 (4400RMS, plus another 400 mids/highs) and I'm seeing voltage drop to 12volts now. Ready to see your fix so I can do the same or similar with mine. Good luck! Hope you get this resolved soon...
  6. Will you take 80.00/piece for these? VVX-10v1 D2 = 19 PCS - $100 If so, I will take 4... Lemme know, could be a fun build...
  7. Gosh dang it! I've got to drive to New Orleans today and need to leave now. Is there anyway possible you can hold on to (4) IVX-10v1 D2 = 14 PCS - $50, until tonight? I will get a PayPal account setup and get these subs bought tonight. How do you get our shipping info? I need to keep these away from my wife! Hold on to 4 pieces pls. Going to put 4 10's in the Camry... Next build
  8. Flux is some serious stuff... Once I inserted my 1/0 into the closed end filled with molten solder, it was like an instant bond! Bonded so quickly that I couldn't get some of my wires seated all the way down to the end of the terminal. I tried pulling the terminals off as hard as I could pull, and it wasn't going anywhere! They are still good connections and don't seem to be coming loose at all. I noticed no one mentioned to sand the inside of the terminals for a better bond. I always sand out the inside with my Dremmel tool, then add small amount of flux, heat the terminal and fill it up with molten solder, then as quickly as i can keeping safety in mind, jam the wire into the lug. Solid hold withing 2-3 seconds.
  9. Waiting on the HDS3 12's and Q2200.1 to arrive... very impatiently

      It shouldn't take that long, 3 days after I made my order my subs were in the trunk and slamming

  10. Waiting on the HDS3 12

  11. Trying to get voltage in check dammit!!!

      I'm new here, cut a man some slack.... I hope everyone here aren't dicks. I was trying to fill in my profile and put this info int the wrong spot. I hope everyone on this site aren't dicks anytime you ask a question. A simple response like KyLar96 is good enough... Now if someone can tell me where to go and put my car info on my profile, I would appreciate it.

      I'm looking to build up my mids and high's more, but I need to get my voltage in check. I know I still need a new battery up front, just wondering if I need the battery in the rear right now, or can that wait until I add another amp...
