  6. Fusing Question

    in Electrical-battery- Alternators- Wiring

    Posted

    this may seem a bit noobish, but im trying to figure out why my amp keeps blowing its fuses...i blew them twice now and i dont know why. so this is what i want to know:

    i have 2 batteries, and i have 2 fuses set up like this:

    battery-----fuse----------+------------fuse-----battery-------------amp

    now am i supposed to have another inline fuse between my 2nd battery and my amp? why did the amp fuses blow in the first place?

    thanks in advance

    soundblaster has good sound if you dont want onboard, if you get a beastly gfx card make sure your case has 4+ fans

    soundblaster audigy if you wanna stay budget as well, awesome sound that doesnt make u broke...as far as a system otherwise, i'd stick to intel. their core2 duo chips are amazing. for ram i would not get gskill, its VERY budget and ive had it before and 4 sticks crapped out on me. crucial for budget, corsair or kingston if u got the $$. for hdd's ive always had western digital, but ive also had seagate and to be honest i like seagate a little better cause of their warrenties. do not buy maxtor, we had 10 out of 15 of their 400gb drives DEAD on arrival at work a few weeks ago, so stay away from maxtor. vid card i'd get nvidia...ive had ati but i like nvidia better. maybe a 6800gt would suit you good. if u wanna go all out on a vid card i'd stick to the 7600gt or even the 8800...that card is beastly...its all in what you need. and as for a mobo ive always had good luck with ASUS and DFI...if u want great quality, budget board then go with asus...if u want amazing quality but a bit more expensive, dfi is the way to go...if u want a designed system pm me and ill hook you up.

    after looking at the thread numberous times, why did you even accrpt a package thaqt looked like that since your obviously the type of person who cares about a tiny blemish. i mean some on common sense says dont take the damn package looking like that.

    x2 you shoulda said something to the guy that delivered it to you, then u coulda filed the claim right then and there

    yeah ive been a package handler on the air-sort night shift for over 2 years now in windsor locks, ct and we do throw shit around a lot...i'd say the safest way to ship your stuff is air, only because it spends less time in transit. 3 day select is good, or 2nd day air. next day is a waste of money unless u absolutely need it that next day...in your case i would talk to the shipper and if they deny packaging it then take it up with ups.

    I did? What did you have before? Looks great man, you will love the way it sounds, I got my sub in a box almost identical to that getting 400wrms and it slaps so you will be very pleased with it.
