  1. I bought 2 of them the other day too, not a damn clue what I'm going to do with them haha probably just going to build 2 small enclosures and add a tweeter and a woofer and use them as my computer speakers
  2. What do you mean you have a brain for your indash and interior amp? you have more than one amp? I need some more details. I'll bet you anything your ground came loose, doesn't seem like you want to check that though...ha
  3. Could be bad RCA's but I doubt it, just check your grounds, make sure its on bare metal and the connection is solid. If its not that, check everything for cuts or pinches. Also, unplug your rca's and see if the humming stops
  4. Did you check your ground? Maybe when you took the corner something moved or pulled and it came loose? Just my .02
  5. I was worried about drilling them out until everyone on here mentioned it, I thought it may weaken the metal a lot but I trust you guys
  6. yeah thats actually what I was thinking damn, yeah deff going to do what n8 said
  7. Yeah this is probably what I am going to do thanks. Im not real sure what you mean haha Yeah this is what i considered doing but i wasnt sure if it was a good idea. Thanks for the tip about the pliers.
  8. Unless you wall it your going to have a very hard time doing a 50 with a sealed box..unless you seal off the trunk
  9. I need to find ring terminals with bigger than usual holes in the center, anyone know where I can find them with a hole bigger than 3/8'?
  10. i bought my CCX's from him, the box it came in was cut out of Styrofoam so the speakers weren't damaged at all I thought that was cool. Stand up guy, great communication.
  11. Another question I have is how do you cut a perfect circle out? When we did my friends box my girlfriends father did it with some type of saw, It came out good but it wasnt perfect. I do have a router but is there some sort of bit I can buy or something I can do to ensure a perfect cut?
  12. Im barely running 1kw so I think the 12g should be fine for my application. the predrilling is to stop the screws from splitting the wood and sink into it better...self tappers would split the hell out of mdf i would think..but no ive never tried it Those I was told to stay away from at all costs
  13. I never noticed that...well now what? haha You dont think I can squeese some knu 12ga in there? It says it accepts up to 8g though..
  14. Thats pretty cheap for that big tube. Maybe Ill pick some of that up, Why is it easier to apply?
  15. Yeah, maybe I will try that I have heard it from a bunch of people. And ih8punkrock PM'd me back, its these http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=091-1154, This is exactly what I was looking for!
  16. Yes pretty much except they have the push terminals on both sides, like they are connected into eachother, I wish I could post the picture from that thread but it isnt my work and I dont have his permission. Unless they are on there and I missed them though..
  17. It won't hurt, I think people here prefer coarse threaded, but I don't know that it matters.. Pre-drill if you are splitting wood, 3/4" and up you shouldn't have to if your centered and stay a few inches off the edge. We did pre-drill that was the weird part. Im going to stay farther away from the edges this time. Yeah, plenty of glue is what im going for haha THATS IT! I want to do that but I feel like I am in NO WAY capable of it haha, they came out real nice. Thanks for all the reply's guys.
  18. Would drywall screws be a bad idea? Last time we built the box we ran into a few edges splitting but I'm not really sure what type of screws we were using.
  19. Yeah, I do NOT want to do those at all. Im searching on google now trying to find those push connectors, the way the guy did it on here looked really cool, I just cant seem to find JUST the connectors without them already being in one of those cheap plastic ones.
  20. Yeah I may do it, not sure yet. Any suggestions on how to do the terminals? Someone on here did a push-pin style terminal on both side of the box and it looked awesome, I cant find the thread but I would love to do that.
