two choices???
raytard replied to 50sindt's topic in General Audio - Can't find a category for your question? Ask here.
the jl costs more, so it must be better. everyone knows jl. only enthusiasts know treo. so if you want to be cool, jl. if you want to spend less money, have a woofer that will eat twice the power, and sound just as good (SQ is in the box and install) go with treo -
hair trick question
raytard replied to bassHZ's topic in General Audio - Can't find a category for your question? Ask here.
i've done 4-15's and 2-18's off about 5kw in BIG ported boxes in similar year tahoes, and they def moved hair but it wasnt an all out electrifying hairtrick. 2kw to 4-15's sealed wont do much of anything, will probably sound good though -
if its cheap, its cheap. dont be surprised if the thing is only good for 300 watts dirty power, or if it overheats. I would waste my money on something like that... but i guess if you need a nice 100wx2 amp itll work :/ oh, and kranny, i just noticed your ava, that girl went to my highschool, my neighbor is in one pic. she legit only made that face until that video came out and everyone started calling her smoochie

remove system install outside of car if noise is gone, reinstall and dont take any shortcuts. if its not gone, your car is haunted. call the local exorcist or sell it off. by isntall out of car i literally mean out of the car. deck, speakers, wires, amps, on the damn driveway wired directly to the batt ( with a fuse ofcourse). this eliminates the equipment as the source of noise and narrows it down to the car or the install. if it works out of the car, and its installed properly (rcas far from all sources of power, GOOD grounds to chassis for everything, grounded rca's, no shorts) then you just have a haunted car.

do you need to keep the back seat functional? if you can lay it down you have a shitton of room. if it has to sit behind the back seat you kinda need a wall though (or you're stuck with a REALLY small box for 3 15's

i did 3 12's firing up with a square port firing back. not suggested, it loaded weird. a slot port would work alot better, or aero's. sub up port back is prob the best bet in that thing.

Any good hid brands out there
raytard replied to OrenB217's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
a lot of the cars that have 9004 have the dual filament one, where low and high is the same bulb, if that includes you, get the "bi-xenon" one, cuz it has a xenon bulb piggybacking the hid. if you dont do that you lose highbeams. easy way to check is to look at your headlights while someone goes from low to high, if the same bulb makes it than you have a dual filament. you'll see them called 9004-2, 9004 bi xenon, or hb1? (maybe hb1-2?) if you dont care about losing your highbeams then screw it, but you may not pass inspection with non-functional highbeams. -
in the us we rate batteries by cca and ah, so 60 doesnt mean much unless its the Ah rating. if it is you already have more than enough battery. if you're not as loud as you want to be, get more power/better subs/more subs. you may have just hit the limit of what you can squeeze out of what you have. I'd suggest a new box but we have no clue what you have already.

i have about a half dozen at this point....none in long island, only up at school because there is no real crime, so they bust you for doing 35 in a 30, being drunk and walking home (so you're not drunk driving, which is a real crime. keep in mind the farthest bar is 6 blocks from my house), and other minor things over and over and over. theres been times i've gone to court with 4 separate "voilations" with the same court date. the law by me is 85db outside property lines at any time between 8pm and 10am. I've never been metered, they just give me "disorderly conducts" for "willfully and knowingly creating a disturbance" if they can hear it at all...i usually just get them thrown out or turned into a parking ticket, but the ones that dont are 190 a pop -
power acoustik has never done rated as far back as i can remember, i'd be surprised if that thing could manage 2000 watts, let alone its "5500 max, 3200rms". dont ever invest in a power acoustik... and purdy, we're already up to clarion/cadence/cactus/carver/cdt/cerwin vega/coustic/crunch/crown, where have you been? lol

Why does this look like a FANTASTIC DEAL!
raytard replied to newls1's topic in Head Units-Processors and Eq's
those jvc's are pretty good. ton of features for an entry level price. We go through a ton of their HD radios too. only ever had one come back, but it was warranteed that day and the customer got a brand new one for free. you'll def be happy with it, just read the manual, the menus and such are kinda funky... -
great, now someone is going to bump in and suggest 3 alpine mrp's, or american bass, or alphasonic, or arc audio or atomic, or autotek.... see my damn point? you can get 3000ish watts a dozen different ways just with companies that start with A.

you've been here for a few months, so you should know by now that theres hundreds of this exact post and even more answers people are going to come in here and start with audioque cuz it starts with A and go through every letter of the alphabet.

Hospial vists.
raytard replied to Gingeriffik's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
yea i feel your pain bro. 3800 and change for one visit when i had pnumonia. luckily insurance covered most of it, but the medicine they prescribed had no generic, so i had to pay like 200 and some out of pocket ontop of the 100 dollar copay for the visit (which is like a full month of my expenses as a non-working full time college student). and about that socialized medicine thing, our nation already spends more on healthcare than any other country, including ones with universal healthcare. it would jack taxes up like another 25% and increase our spending by more than a trillion dollars a year. i'm not saying it wont happen, im just saying that a whole lot of rich people arent going to like it, and we know who has all the power... -
watertown? i wonder if he'll take 100 and let me pick it up, lol
