  1. um those 45s hes talking about dont always help...just like the wanna be t-lines.
  2. looks like a Ray sketch lol
  3. most of the time it doesnt "sound better" porting into the cabin, when you face it back it usually loads off the trunk giving you a lower tone sound
  4. no hate i own a droid x...its just not setup for THIS use. but you know whats going to happen. Android is better no iphone is better And 30 pages later people are arguing over preferences. in all honesty, i never understand the arguements because they are always full of misinformation.
  5. an oscope still has its uses, this just isnt one of them anymore. its kinda like bag phones, they were pretty awesome when they were all you had for a mobile device, now theres new better things or the use. Its just how technology works.
  6. yea in my truck, ours would never go below 17v...truck ran ok with it like that but you dont ever feel good about running something you know is wrong. It got sent back and we are waiting on her to come back to us when they get time. The sierra/silverado is a 2002 and it doesnt like 18v lol
  7. gain was all the way down, later in the vid he turns gain up with detector in place.
  8. Only difference is using the speaker side that's IN the amp, your relying on that amp to pass through whatever the HU is inputting to the RCA side.
  9. going over 16v in a car is honestly kind of a no brainer that things can and will go wrong if you have any electronics of the vehicle hooked up to it.
  10. on the normal thier shop uses nice stuff, they did the shaquillac with all RE stuff
  11. shame shame shame...should be using a LC1 School me on why one use the LC1 over bass knob most bass knobs are gain adjustments or bass enhancers. an lc1 cuts signal through the rca so that you arent introducing anything to the mix. your taking away up to 100 percent of the bass by turning the knob down. Of course you set the amp with that knob all the way up though. I wasnt fond of the LC1. I found that even when i turned the knob all the way down it still let a fair amount of bass through. I use a BC-101 basically the same thing. It does have another knob tho, I have yet to completly figure out what exactly its supposed to do. its adjustable from 40-150Hz. But yeah when setting your amps, make sure the knob is all the way open that way you have more control over the amount of signal you let through. This is an excellent point! Also something that I will include in the revised production owner's manual. If the customer's primary source is an iPhone, iPod, ect, the tracks from the CD should be ripped to the iPod at the highest bit rate possible, and then use that as the source for all testing. Also, very important, iTunes "Sound Check" HAS TO BE TURNED OFF during this process. If not the iTunes software will adjust the level of the tracks and mess you up. This is very true. I say set your gains according to the way you listen to most music, for example if you listen to CDs more than anything else use a CD to set gains, If Ipod is your thing use that, USB...whatever it is use that source for best results. if you still had bass with it all the way down you did somethign wrong...its a 100 percent cutouf to signal.. or yours was broken.
  12. are you looking for loudness? if so id say 2.25 per sub with 16 sq in per cube port area, tuned to 36-37 off rms power
  13. shame shame shame...should be using a LC1 School me on why one use the LC1 over bass knob most bass knobs are gain adjustments or bass enhancers. an lc1 cuts signal through the rca so that you arent introducing anything to the mix. your taking away up to 1200 percent of the bass by turning the knob down. Of course you set the amp with that knob all the way up though.
  14. mrp1000 alpine gets my vote.
  15. i feel viper engines are pathetic myself as well. but i dont agree with the honda comments lol.
  16. not really great cars for audio. shape if trunk just prevents alot of options. 1 12 on decent power should do well in it.
  17. id say the 10s its a better box for them then the 12s
  18. honestly in that price range beggars cant be choosers. those arent great amps but its a tiny budget.
