alarm. I feel like a tint will clue people off to the fact that you have stuff inside that might be worth stealing, unless of course they can just see it from the outside...

You can send it to me, I'll take care of it for you

If an o-scope will get you right on the money, how can you get better doing it by ear?

They aren't ideal. Otherwise singers would all record in the bathroom.

Someone should buy her a guitar tuner...

What do you mean by daisy chain? Like the RCAs? Or the Power cables? What is being daisy chained?

I would recommend buying a repair book for your model car. It'll tell you how to take off all the trim panels and everything.

Why can't you wire up all 4 HDC3's to the one amp? If they are dual 2 ohms, you can wire each sub in parallel to get each to 1 ohm, then wire two pairs in series to get 2 ohms, then wire those two pair in parallel to get 1 ohm final impedance. each sub will get 650wrms. No harm to any of your equipment, no money spent (except to build a box). I don't see a problem...

or just run the subs you have now off the power you have now. save the money to upgrade your electrical and everything later.

Wait. Get a small 12" or something if u need bass now, not 4 18's.

Iraggi 240A alternator Big 3 in 1/0awg That's all for now. I will add more pictures as I add more to the car.

I didn't like how exposed the sub was. I don't want people looking in and seeing it, so I built a grill for it. Mids amp. Wiring looks a little like a rats nest, but its all under the seat and none of it is visible when the seats are down. Sub amp This is a picture of the ID's before I installed them. Tweeter in stock location With the cover on That's where the woofers are. I didn't feel like taking the door panels off for a picture, especially when I'm just going to be putting them in kick pods soon anyways. I'll get pictures of that up when it happens. Here's the kenwood Bass knob location I ran the wire for the USB into the ashtray, so that's where my flashdrive is. Out of view and out of the way, but still easily accessible. This is obviously the battery and wiring. Not the cleanest, but it works. Battery is just a Diehard Gold, nothing special It's the only battery I have in the car as well.

Well, first off, my system is still evolving. I wouldn't say it's "finished", but for now, I guess you could say it is. I didn't really take any pictures while putting it all together. I always have the intentions to, but I just always forget once I'm in the zone. My goal was loud bass, but still keeping good SQ. I also wanted it to be a sort of stealthy install. It's tough to hide an 18" sub, so it can only be so stealthy. But looking at the car from the outside, you really can't tell what's in there. I call this the SAV, the Sub-aural Assault Vehicle. I just like that name lol If you can't tell by my sig, here's what I have in the car... head unit:Kenwood eXcelon KDC-X993 This thing sounds great. One reason I bought it was for the time alignment. It really makes the soundstage much more realistic and balanced. I love the USB input; I just load all of my music on a flashdrive and use the HU to browse through the folders. Image Dynamics CTX Front dash Tweets CDT 6.5" CL-E6NEO Front door Mids Image Dynamics CTX 6.5" Rear door Midbass I got the Image Dynamic Components to put in the front doors/dash, but I only realized after wards that the woofers were too deep for my front doors. I tried a spacer, but that only made the speaker hit the inside of the door panel. I just gave up trying to make those fit and got the CDT slim mount neodymium 6.5" woofers. They fit great and sound pretty good, but not as good as the ID's did. Kicker ZX350.4 Got this used for $150 and it works great. I sort of wish it had more then 60w per channel, but it works fine for me and sounds great. Knukonceptz SS Karma 4 channel 6m RCA I just got these recently. The cable is seems pretty rugged. I just wish the connector ends were a little shorter. I had a little clearance problem in the back of the HU. Just got some right angle adaptors from Radioshack and it works alright. Fi Q 18" w/ brushed aluminum dust cap 7cu ft. ported box tuned to 28hz I love this sub. It gets pretty loud but sounds great doing it. The brushed aluminum looks great as well. Sundown SAZ-1000D This amp is built like a tank and it's size is perfect to fit under the rear seat. I'm surprised how much power you can get out of it with just a 4awg power input. Iraggi 240 amp Amputator Alt Big 3 in Monster 1/0awg First let me say that Dom was great to deal with as far as ordering and CS. After putting this in, which wasn't very difficult but just time consuming, I get very little to no voltage drop at idle. Lights barely dim (hardly noticeable) at idle with some heavy bass, and when driving you can't notice at all. Second Skin Damplifier Lite on roof and front doors I had to replace my headliner because the fabric was seperating from the foam after 15 years. While I did that, I figured it was a perfect opportunity to deaden my roof. I have nothing but good things to say about Ant and his product. It was a pleasure dealing with him. The deadening really helped with the SQ inside the car. Before the deadener, my roof racks rattled so bad that you could hear it inside the car almost louder then the rest of the music. After the deadener, there is very little to no rattling at all from the roof racks. Soon to be adding: Q-logic 6.5" kick pods I have these pods on the way, so when I install, I will give my impressions and post pictures. I must say that the Billy Treadwell at Q-logic helped me out when I ordered the wrong color pods for my car. He was great and got it sorted out for me. So now to the pictures.... So when I got the sub, UPS kind of fucked up... Luckily, it was alright, no damage. Here's a shot of the brushed aluminum logo A little size comparison That's a quarter on the dustcap. Out with the old, in with the new. This is the only shot I have of the box being built. I just propped all the pieces together for a "test fit". Home depot's saw was messed up, so nearly all of my pieces weren't square. I had to shave off a bunch of edges to square them, so my box probably ended up being slightly smaller then intended. It worked out in the end. box is finished and sub is in.
