Not really limiting to XS opinions. This was just a general question to the open forum on what they find most important. We made a big change in how our products ship and have seen a lot better results in items not getting damaged. We now use FedEx. when did this change happen? i got my batteries about 1 month ago. the styrofoam was all broken and the boxes could not have survived another shipment. im sure no one at fedex treats an 80lbs package with a lot of care lol. my batteries did arrive unbroken, but by the look of the box i got lucky that they did. my comments were about something important to a customer. confidence that you will receive a working product is pretty important lol. just trying to help

since it seems you are looking for opinions, i would like to see better shipping materials. my batteries only had to travel 2 hours and the Styrofoam was all broken and the box had holes in it where something poked through and there was nothing to protect the battery from whatever it was. then a friend of mine got a battery that was damaged and leaking. you guys sent a replacement but that one got damaged too. so i really think the packing materials need to be improved. its not good to buy something knowing you are gambling on the product surviving its journey.

lol, i laughed.

my mosin nagant cost me $70 on black friday and i can get surplus ammo at $80 for 440 rounds (7.62x54r). i think the price went up on them now but you can get them for $100-150. that HAS to be the cheapest, largest ammo/gun you can get.

is this the amp that you have multiple comp sets hooked up to one channel?

if you want people to help you... dont tell them to go look for themselves. make it as insanely easy as possible.

im sure the difference isnt only in the cone. if one falls apart, you did something terribly wrong to it. neither will have a resin to them so its just woven fibers. im sure the coil, motor and spiders are all different between the speakers as well. you should post links.

still looking? i have two for sale. pm me.

I agree with this. It's not easy being that loud at that low of a frequency. I love lows sure its easy. lots of cone area and lots of power. done lol. the low frequencies are impressive but usually bearable for demos and enjoyable for the owner. higher frequencies will make you want to get the hell out of the car because it hurts your brain. it wouldnt be enjoyable to drive around with.

he said he turns his subs loud. im pretty sure that just means he turns the subs up. cause you cant put "loud" on only the subs. make and model of all your equipment is needed. HU, amps, speakers, ohm loads, settings on HU and amps. we need all of those details.

fets dont blow for no reason. you cant just replace them and assume its all fixed. what if the pwm is fucked and that took out the fets? you have no idea how to check for where the real problem is coming from do you? i dont like audiopipe but this was user error.

how well is that paint going to bond to that plastic? isnt it designed to repel everything?

lol never played nazi zombies?

its a lot like fallout. i dont like that details dont seem to always load. very often i enter an area and find most of the detail missing. im liking it so far, think im on chapter 8 or 9. but its getting repetitive. the same monsters spawn in the same spot. go to do one quest, fight zombies. come back to the quest giver and fight the same exact zombies. and ammo is so rare, and you get so little of it, you have to fight the same way every time. im enjoying it for the most part but those are some of my gripes.

ive never seen any hint of a psi bandwagon

thats cool of you all want to contribute, a lot of people have. just dont do it because you think someone is losing money on this forum.

Thanks for the advice. Im also looking at this http://www.knukonceptz.com/productDetail.cfm?prodID=KAR12SS but ill also consider the kompressed wire if you have good experience with it. I have 5.25 infinity kappa components in the front and 5.25 infinity kappa coaxials in the back. Going to power it with a alpine mrp f600 seriously, dont get that wire. it is the biggest pain in the ass to strip ever. everyone who gets it, regrets it. myself included. X2 aboslute poop. I cut my fingers numerous times trying to strip back that crap ass plastic jacket on my box cutters the first notch was the correct length to get through most of the outer jacket without cutting the inner jackets. pretty hard to cut yourself that way.

way to pull a number out of your ass. only half of this statement is correct. you are correct about voltage drop, but since music is dynamic impedence rise isn't really a factor. impedance rise is still, very much, a factor with music. very good question.

i have not used their amps but ID never made anything that didnt sound good. you cant go wrong with them IMO.

12awg will be a lot harder to get through the door boots. i would just go with 16awg. i think i use 16 and 14. even have 18awg for my tweeters. i would rather get the correct size and be able to run it than spend more money for overkill (shit you wont use) and have a bitch of a time running the wire through a boot. but its up to you.

dont worry, you wont have a problem visiting mexico. now getting back into the US will be interesting.

solid wire doesnt "absorb" like stranded. you rely entirely on the strength of the solder and solder is weak. you can trust me that it would be a pain to get a good solder joint with this. its something i do at work.

I assume you could, but again, solid 1/0 practically requires a pipe bender to get it around corners. It just isn't practical to run it long distances through the interior of a car. I was trying out a spool of it in Home Depot one day as I was pretty curious about the same thing. Home Depot had it for just over $1/ft, so I was playing with on the spool. I couldn't even get it do a 90 degree bend with my hands. There was no way I was going to take the time to try and really run it through a firewall and under some carpet. could you run it in combo with the reg 0ga we use for the bends u need? edit: or would that defeat the purpose? ever try to solder single strand wire? give it a try and see if every solder joint doesn't break. I have to agree but also if its soldered. i have a question is solder bad for connections bc its not as conductive as copper right? its not as conductive, yes. but there is more surface area. i dont know exactly how the math comes out but i would bet its an even trade off. if you crimp then solder that would be beneficial because the copper makes contact then the gaps are filled with solder. X2 big time.

well if its a CNC the big perk would be funky curves and designs. like noobtastic's "DC" port. that would be the biggest selling point to doing this because even guys who can build their own boxes cant do what a CNC can do. at least not without a ton of work.
