  1. anyone know a good place to mount a amp in a 02 tahoe? My Rockville dB25 is just sitting under the rear seat and its too long to screw to the floor and its just sliding around banging on the metal seat bars. and i plan on getting another one and a 4 ch version of it in the future so any suggestions would be awesome!

      Making an amp rack that secures to the vehicle, and then mounting the amps on it usually works pretty good. Location is all up to you

  2. I'm in the market for some router bits for my new porter cable router

    I was reading one of your old threads and am wondering if you still recommend any of those router bits or anything different. I'm a n00b when it comes to wood working and just wanted to make sure I buy the most commonly used and right bits. Please help me choose out a bunch of bits.

    I was looking at https://www.mobilesolutions-usa.com/router-bits and I have a feeling that site is selling overly priced router bits for its targeted audience of n00bs like me.
     

    Anyhow, here was your old thread:

     

  3. Has anyone else gotten Second Skin damplifier 40 pounders that smelled very strongly of cats once they opened it? Or was there just something special about mine?

      Oh no, not like cat piss. Haha that would be even worse. Just the scent of a cat

  4. Anyone seen CJ18? He built my box for my XLM2's years ago and I was wondering if he still did box building in case I need to upgrade my subs again

      I think since his company is no longer a sponsor here, he doesn't get on much anymore, if at all.

      For me, on the main "board" page, where it displays recent topics, and recent status updates, right at the top of the status updates there's a type bar that says "What's on your mind?"

      why not do the research on the drivers you want? the forum has a decent search function, which will allow you to see build logs and other threads where members have reviewed the subs you want to compare. Also, learn the basics of designing enclosures using modeling software, as well as see what others have used, and match the sub to the goals you want with the space you have. Just like everything else in the world, no one can tell you what is best for you, except for yourself.

  10. Had my first Monte Christo sandwich in Bahrain. So damn good. Gotta find a place back home that makes them

      I'm not sure if the Bahrain Dublin's had a good food menu or not.... But they have a pretty great bar :)

      Yeah, it's actually from Benngian's in Bahrain. Raspberry jam, covered in powdered sugar, fried goodness. It went great with the buzz I had going.

      you can use that cutlist program as an extension on SketchUp https://extensions.sketchup.com/en/content/cutlist

      Thanks hdorre. That will come in handy, now that I know about it

  14. Torn between 5 XP3000's, or one XS 15k lithium. About the same price, but will the lithium match the 5 AGM's?

    1. reedal

      Would ~800A of max output total from three alts be too much for one lithium battery...? Assuming I was drawing that much current from the battery to the amps in the first place from five amps..

      Thanks guys. The weight is somewhat of a concern, but at the same time, I find it easier to think of where to put five batteries than to put a single battery for my tahoe. I'll be right around 8kW nominal. I've still got time to think though....

      @Showtime: you guys are one of the best. I had already planned on sending a message to see what kind of sales you might have. I've got a couple months left of this deployment, so we'll be talking soon hopefully :) keep up th...

  16. Bahrain has made me realize what wet clothes inside of a dryer feel like... it's too damn hot and gross for me. but the shawarma's are some of the best things i've ever eaten.

  17. Slovenia is a nice country. Good people, good food, great views. when it's all said and done, i'll make a thread with pictures of all of the port visits and activities.

      haha i won't be trying it, but a few buddy's haven't made any complaints yet. Every other woman looks like she's been rode hard and put away wet, to me.

  18. What timing... Talking about fusing the alternator wire in that one thread and a car rolls into work on a tow truck. Shorted out rectifier

      I still don't see how an internal short on a alternator that could burn the vehicle is going to be stopped by a fuse on the output...

  19. Always been a Jimmie Johnson fan, partly because of his off-track stuff. Its the 10th anniversary of his foundation and they are doing a raffle for a new Z06. https://jimmiejohnsonfoundation.org/win-jimmies-chevy/ Obviously this isn't my raffle, but if it goes against the rules let me know.

      yeppppppp every year. That's local though i guess, paid to the local treasurer, but everywhere in VA does it. at least the 5-ish cities/counties i've lived at here.

  21. Do I keep my cz702 or buy an 80prs?

    1. reedal

      reedal

      My 80prs clicks like a mother when you rotate the volume. If you try to turn it up or down really fast though it doesn't change as fast as you're turning it, which I don't like. I still have issues with the screen flashing if I have it turned off completely with engine running, but I think that's due to my PAC module. THAT thing feels cheap as fuck.

      I've never used the cz702, so I won't vote against it. What feature(s) are you wanting that the cz702 doesn...
