I find it more odd that he cares about what some guy on the internet thinks let alone how he types to the point he felt the need or had the desire to make a YT video of it. He clearly understood what the poster was trying to convey which is the entire point of communication. Ignoring trolls is pretty easy to do and takes no time. I think the bigger issue here is that he only did all this to make himself feel better by humiliating in response. I don't see how that made him any better of a person but whatever gets his rocks off.

Hardware: Sony XAV-601bt (17 watts x4 cea 2016 certified) Boss Audio Phantom 6x9's 10 amp, 12 volt PSU Car audio FM/AM Antenna 1 inch solid pine Originally I was looking for a decent Bluetooth speaker for my laptop and phone use but they all pretty much suck or are very pricey. Since I had some old car audio gear in my garage and the HU had bluetooth and DVD player, I decided to build my own boombox. It ended up being a bit larger than I initially wanted but figured the larger air space would help the speakers anyway and this is only for garage and laptop in the house use. On the back I have power input and RCA out for subwoofer if I ever want and the antenna was long so had to mount it sideways. The speakers have LED's in the eyes and they are supposed to light up but they don't work cause Boss is junk. They put the leads to the LED's on the speaker inputs but maybe it needs more power than the HU can provide? I wanted to mount my old RF Punch 60ix on this puppy but no way that 10 amp PSU would support it. Overall the Boss actually sounds pretty good, clean highs surprisingly, could stand more bass but certainly sounds better than any other boombox I've ever had. What sucks is that everytime I disconnect the power, the HU's settings go back to default. I considered a small 12v lithium battery but figured it wouldn't last anyway and probably not worth spending money on a good one but I probably should put one in anyway to make it more portable from garage to house.

Yeah I'm on my 3rd or 4th email with Sonic, none of the responses are too specific as they are communicating to warehouse before reporting to me. Paid with CC but I feel I should probably wait a bit longer before going to them, I believe my limit is 30 days for asking my money back but not sure how Sonic will react. I don't want this to go all legal overboard since I can't prove anything and I do find the weight listed on the label as curious. On the bright side however, I got my order from Carkart so they are all good. The weight on it says 17 lbs and I know with Sonic's package that the peanuts and box didn't weigh no 13 lbs. I'll just wait it out another week and see what happens...just kind of annoying and first time I've had an order issue in some 15 years since the old Ebay days. Just wanted to vent and get a little insight

Basically I ordered 2 subs and they were the cheapest price. I received only one. It was I a large plain box stuffed with styrofoam peanuts and didn't notice a receipt but honestly don't recall. Since I only got 1 tracking number, I emailed Sonic and they emailed warehouse. They reported that "other pair of speakers" was "lost in transit" and would "file a claim with UPS". So I'm thinking that ok they shipped them separately and 1 got lost. They probably won't find it and end up reimbursing me. I decided to order the sub from another site and worst case if they find it I end up with 3 subs so no big deal, I'll use it. I ordered from Carkart.com (second cheapest) and a week later my status is still "pending" but that's another issue altogether but I'm sure they probably sent it and didn't update or notify is all. *cough. UPS emails me today with a damage claim and that they will schedule a time to inspect my damaged package...which isn't damaged. Now one peculiar thing I noticed was the shipping label said 31 lbs. I looked on Amazon's site just to see if it mentioned weight. It says the sub is 15.9 lbs so not sure if that's complete with packing materials or just the retail box itself. Of course 2 of these would be 31.8 lbs more inline with what my shipping label says. So now do you guys think someone opened my package and stole one of the subs and repacked it? If so how the heck do I prove that only 1 item was in that box? I already threw the packing box and styrofoam away. So there's no point in UPS inspecting anything since I can't prove crap. Technically the packing box is probably large enough to hold another subwoofer and plus it says 31 lbs and I only have half of that though I never weighed anything. Depending how the next couple of emails go, I may not ever order from Sonics again.

I have 2 JL XD amps. 1 is 600 watts, other is 300. I couldn't really tell a difference but I also don't normally listen to my music at max. So I now just use the 300 watts, I'd rather not be heard more than need be but can still hear it quite a ways out if I crank it.
