depending on the type of aluminum it can easily be half as conductive as copper.

5 batteries in series? hmmm.... i think not. bus bars are mostly a look thing. copper is way more conductive than aluminum.

those are useless. i had two shallow pioneer 10"s and they maxed out the 130db meter.

alt power is better than battery power but battery power is very useful while the car is on. no, the big 3 doesnt burn anything up. thats just stupid. unless of course you fuck up and short something out.

wont harm them at all. its called a 180* phase shift.

you taking all 4? if not ill take a pair.

the "sun" is in the sky. "son" is your kid. happy birthday.

good god. let that drama fest of a woman go. be a man and tell her you can do what you want and if she doesnt trust you then she shouldn't be with you. and if she touches any of your stuff you will be sure the cops pay her a visit and she is lucky you didnt already call the cops for her threat. put up cameras if you feel she will really do something. tell her to chill out and you two can be happy together or she can keep acting like that and lose you.

what did you do to piss her off?

i just asked nate the same question yesterday. im looking for one in the same price range. he says this one is the best in it's price range. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834115977&Tpk=Acer%20Aspire%20TimelineX%20AS3820T you can get it with i3, i5, or i7 processors. 11", 13", and 17" screens. im probably going to buy one today.

think i would notice if my speakers were not working?

whats overkill? i have 500w to my 100w 6.5"s. i prefer to call it headroom.

trust me, another year goes by and you will think about changing again. over the next 4 years you could easily try them all.

try them all

generally, if you double resistance you get half the power. so aim for an amp that does 2x the power at 4ohm.

oh you need a router table to do little stuff like this. to make the ring i used an adjustable hole cutter on the drill press. then you take the ring to the table router and round it off. Oh gotcha, been a while since junior high shop class lol. just dont want to see you chop a finger off trying to make a little ring lol. maybe i should do a "how to" next time. i did mix on wood. made it the same color as the spreader. and i did sand as soon as it got a little hard. ok so dont mix on wood and buy new body filler. check

i probably did everything wrong here. trust me, you can do this. just give it a try.

even after another mistake or two... i think im about done. just waiting for the clear to dry.

really? you didnt believe me even though it says to take off 1" on the site you linked for that port? lol use this, from the people who make that port. http://psp-inc.com/tools.html its exactly how RAM described.

damn thanks a lot guys! ah ha, that must be it. old bondo. i bought this can for my fiberglass box and that was 3 years ago. thanks, I didn't know that. I did try using less hardener and made sure i was out of the sun, but it really didnt make much of a difference.

gain too high and your clipping the shit out of them at higher volumes. just my guess.

so Kimo asked me to make him some simple speaker baffles. all he asked was that he wanted them recessed. so i wanted to try out some new tools and make use of this gallon of bondo i never used. i gotta say, bondo SUCKS! only goes on smooth for a min or two then starts to harden and that leaves you with tons of little holes. but this was my 1st time so it could have just been me. anyways... pics were taken from my phone so they are not the best. but oh well. you guys know me and my clamps. at this point i gave up on the idea of painting and went to my original idea of wrapping them. now once i got some paint on them i saw some flaws disappear and i wondered what would happen if i kept working on it. this was a learning experience after all. sanded and painted two more times... not looking too bad at all. obviously i would have done things differently if i knew i was going to end up with a finished paint job. one or two more coats and i think this is going to look pretty good for a 1st timer and something i chalked up to be a failure. what do you guys think so far?

daaaammmnnn... you guys were bored last night.
