  1. If the volume was turned all the way down when it blew, then you may have had a different issue.

    Though low voltage can be a major issue.

    You will always have voltage drop no matter what.

    It's best to get the battery quantity and size that can supply your amps with more than what they need at full power. Run it from an alternator that is capable of charging the batts with a bit of extra amperage for overhead.

    Adding a 14v batt will not work. There is no quick fix. All batts connected in the same charging system must be of the same voltage, and the same type. Switching to a 14V system is a big job and requires your alternator to charge at over 16V.

    Stick with a 12V system and get your batts and alternator up to par.

    What batts do you have now? What wires? Give details of your electrical system.

  2. The Sundown 3500 is a solid amp.

    It is unique in it's components and final design.

    Cost for amplifiers goes into build quality, component quality, QC, warranty support, as well as performance.

    That being said, you get an amp that is capable of 4000-4500W on decent electrical. Is extremely durable and reliable.

    Will sound clean over it's entire life.

    And if it ever does have issues, you have a company with a great track record for service to back it up.

  3. thats like 100% coverage though. isn't it a little much?

    Outer door skin is only about 60-70% coverage.

    Sure 20-25% is effective, and may be adequate. But when planning to do high power, every little bit helps. In fact, I skimped out for the power levels I plan on running. I also plan to chase SPL numbers just a little.

    The inner door skin requires more coverage because the deadener is being used to cover the openings.

  4. People come, people go. Sometimes they stay, sometimes they don't. Sometimes, they are here so long its almost like they are part of our E-family and people start to care about them. Then one day, you notice they have not posted in months, sometimes years. Where did they go? If you are mentioned in this post, chime in and let us know if you are alive and ok! Tragically, sometimes, we hear the worst news and i hope i don't here again.

    i would like to know what happened to:

    Kasey aka thehoe92 - this dude is local and used to be a 16yr old youngster looking for a bass demo. Now he is at least 21 or 22 yr old man. Haven't seen him in at least 2 years.

    bibby - was here from the start, was a mod....just vanished.

    larry95civic - was battling cancer. Tons of people helped out including me, my mom, my wife and numerous others on the forum. Then boom, gone.

    these are just a few that i was thinking of off the top of my head. When i look at old posts i always think, "damn, where did that guy go"? ill add more names later but if anyone else knows where these guys are, post up! if you are wondering where someone else is that has been MIA, feel free to post.

    I think Kasey is Kasey Shutz aka i shutz. He is still around. I actually just friended him on FB. He was making some nice videos. I guess he has just been inactive due to school/ work etc....
