  1. And this is very common. Not all music is mastered the same. You guys are probably right.
  2. Just ask. And rep DC.
  3. Previous testing did show the DC light to be a little innacurate, so I agree with Derrick on that. Alpine, I'm aware the gain is not a volume knob, but setting up the system using the dd-1, step by step, by the book, allowed me to increase h/u unit volume and gain with no distortion light. I'll just black out the clip indicator lol.
  4. Before tuning with the DD-1, my H/U was at 32/35 and gain just under half, set with an oscope. My clip light would flicker a bit full tilt. After DD-1, my H/U is at 34/35 and gain barely over half. But now, my clip light is almost constant solid at full tilt. Sounds louder and deeper, but gets me nervous. Explain?
  5. Pulled over for over 130. Wrote me up at 99, my lucky day.

      It was 0100 and I was doing a zero-to-fast run getting on the freeway. CHP was the only other car on the road. My bad, LOL

  6. Did you get a new amp? Free bump.
  7. No one has been able to explain to me why young men and women serve in the U.S. Military for 20 years, risking their lives protecting freedom, and only get 50% of their pay. While Politicians hold their political positions in the safe confines of the capital, protected by these same men and women, and receivefull pay retirement after serving one term. It just does not make any sense. Monday on Fox news they learned that the staffers of Congress family members are exempt from having to pay back student loans. This will get national attention if other news networks will broadcast it. When you add this to the below, just where will all of it stop? 35 States file lawsuit against the Federal Government Governors of 35 states have filed suit against the Federal Government for imposing unlawful burdens upon them. It only takes 38 (of the 50) States to convene a Constitutional Convention. This will take less than thirty seconds to read. If you agree, please pass it on. This is an idea that we should address. For too long we have been too complacent about the workings of Congress. Many citizens had no idea that members of Congress could retire with the same pay after only one term, that they specifically exempted themselves from many of the laws they have passed (such as being exempt from any fear of prosecution for sexual harassment) while ordinary citizens must live under those laws. The latest is to exempt themselves from the Healthcare Reform... in all of its forms. Somehow, that doesn't seem logical. We do not have an elite that is above the law. I truly don't care if they are Democrat, Republican, Independent or whatever. The self-serving must stop. If each person that receives this will forward it on to 20 people, in three days, most people in The United States of America will have the message.. This is one proposal that really should be passed around. Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution: "Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators and/or Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators and/or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States .."
  8. The first color is the main wire color, the second color is the stripe color. On the same wire lol.
  9. Got mine today too. My Kenwood (x794) distorts at 34/35. I was able to add some gain to my 5k as well.
  10. Heres my suggestion. Run the front rcas from your headunit to the 360.2, you'll need to y-split them to get 4 channels. The 360.2 will allow you to BP the mids and HP the tweets. Output from 360 to your 4 channel. Now run the rear rca's from the head unit directly to a 2 channel amp. If the amp doesn't have a BP option, use the low pass set to around 300. You'll then need a simple HP crossover in-line to cutoff freqs below ~8 0. Subwoofer rca's to the 360.2, then to the sub amp. If you get a processor with more channels (Bitone, MS-8 ) you can run all your speakers through it before the amps. Ray is the man you need to PM. He helped me out a lot. Him and Google lol.
  11. DD-1 is pretty cool. Turns out my 4-channel was turned up way too high. Explains the tweeter issues.

      you should bring it here and let me borrow it. Drive to TN isn't too bad for you right?

  12. Nice.. Are there spider options as well? Lets say, theoretically, somebody wanted a 3500 on each 10, experienced user, just not with Sundown. Reliable daily?
  13. Not that I know of, did the surrounds/spiders tear on your xls? My xl's are just fine. Doing great. I have heard of high powered 10's having issues, though.
  14. Thanks for the info guys. Have there been any issues with spiders or surrounds tearing on the NS v2 10's? @Caprice: Just doing research, man.
  15. Just curious what rms and peak power ratings are for the NS v2 and Z v2 (10" d1). And why aren't the numbers on their website, or any other sites that sell Sundown?
  16. Sundown 100.2, Legattia 4" mids, and Hertz tweeters for sale. Check the for sale section and don't be afraid to make an offer. Discounts on multiple item purchases.

  17. Heard this thing today (yesterday). It fucking gets down!
  18. Whats more important to your friend? Performance or originality. The Shelby destroys the Dodge and Chevy, but I doubt you'd find a REAL Shelby under 30k. Also, it is easy to distinguish between a Mustang GT and GT500. Wheels, stance, body features, and markings. I haven't driven the Camaro or SRT-8, but my Mustang (2010) handles fawking great. Drift, legit road racing, drag, high speed autobahn runs (I had it in Germany for a year), whatever.
  19. Those Eclipse were hittin pretty hard. I may need another demo from you now.
  20. I better not smell salty nuts on mine when i get it.... Im gonna wipe mine down just to be safe
