  1. TheKenKanif has disliked this video. Its funny how your original version is in the related video list, Eric. This dude is lame.
  2. So they are in the center console right? Are they pretty much back-to-back with nothing in between them? And do you have anything in the doors or on the dash(to widen the stage)?
  3. This is an in-car video, very scary. EDIT: This is from Will Power's car, not Wheldons.
  4. Unfortunately its part of the sport. He probably wouldn't want to go any other way. I was at Fontana in '99 when Greg Moore was killed, our seats were right in front of the airlift pad. You could already tell he was gone as they loaded him. You get chills for sure. RIP Dan
  5. Nobody needing Madden. Hard to believe, hit me up.
  6. The midbass is a separate crossover and there are jumpers, which I had set at normal for midrange and attenuated for the tweeters. Basically, one speaker wire splits into 3, to input the 3 signals to the crossovers. The final ohm reading was 4.1-4.2, not powered up of course. New amp is hooked up, but the crossovers are out. No issues. I really think one of the crossovers had a short that I couldn't find, that would only show up under power. I don't know how to check each and every component of these crossovers.
  7. LMAO random hey? and what is gonna happen this sexy amp? I was going to sell it, but now that I know there is nothing wrong with it, and it has a custom Rusty-fan, I think i'll hold it for a bit.
  8. Thanks for chiming in, dude. He emailed me all the info. The heatsink only got up 84 degrees after an hour of play time. Either that fan is on 'roids, or there is an issue with the crossovers. I already took them out of the car and will be running active. I really appreciate that you guys took the time to test it out and everything.
  9. How about a speaker out of phase? The way this component set works, there were 3 speakers on each channel plus crossovers. If just one of the 3 speakers is out of phase, would that cause some weird things to happen on that channel?
  10. Possible, but not probable. How about a speaker out of phase? The way this component set works, there were 3 speakers on each channel plus crossovers. If just one of the 3 speakers is out of phase, would that cause some weird things to happen on that channel?
  11. That's the problem, I haven't learned what the issue is here. Yet.

      Rusty tested the hell out of it. Gotta be something in the car.

  12. Well guys, Rusty just let me know that he ran it for 4 hours on 4 6x9's and it hardly got warm. So even though I won't be using it anymore, I need to troubleshoot what caused the issue in my car. If you have followed this topic, you know I checked all speakers individually and the crossovers nominal resistance. The only thing I can figure is at least one crossover is fucking up under power, which I don't know how to check. I am not using the crossovers anymore, running active, so if anyone wants the task of testing them, let me know. I'll pay shipping to and from you. I just want to reiterate, the amp is fine, and I feel like a dick for even making this thread.
  13. Got a few things from FedEx today. A complete Hifonics system from Audiosavings. Big thanks to those guys for putting up a great prize. Big thanks to Steve for keeping SOTM going, and Chode for keeping things straight. And the biggest thanks to everyone who voted for me for SOTM. I did not expect to win against some of the bigger builds I ran against. Just goes to show that hard work pays off and people notice. The prize package, gotta figure out how to utilize it
  14. Just got the Leviathan via UPS. Very nice looking amp, check it out in my build log. Install tomorrow.

      Tracking says its due today. No worries, Steve, I appreciate it. Thanks to Audiosavings as well!!

  15. I need to run new speaker wire from the trunk to the doors. Wouldn't be so bad if there wasnt 10 speakers. 6-channel will be here tomorrow though. What to do...

      LOL surely you can run fewer wires then split off parallel/series in the door itself.

      True. 3 per side is better than 5 per. Got a case of lazy-ass today.

  16. Build your own box. Make it look factory. Make it sound how YOU wan it to.
  17. They'll fit in a sealed box. I agree with 10's in a ported box, though.
  18. Your gonna pay 200 for that? $200 and willingness to ditch the 15" idea would get you a lot louder.
