  1. Excellent communication and paid promptly. Would gladly do business again.
  2. Reference Pic Whats left on my fence. The stuff I already removed was over the top of the fence and interweaved between my side and the neighbors side. Not ever sure what this classifies as....
  3. 1st Welcome to forums!! I think for a first box design this is a good place to start. Consider cutting the 90degree angle on the bend are of the port so that the entire bend is at a 45 (both sides of the port). How much power will you be running to the sub? What is your electrical system? alt bat wires? What amp? What car?
  4. They actually found this back in winter. Said they would go "dig it up" in Spring. That came and went. I think its odd that the people that lay claim to this have a business model in place to take people on tour of the area but dont have a significant plan to find out what, if anything, is actually down there. I understand the interest in making money but if there is REALLY anything of interest down there you think there would be a more serious effort.
  5. So I went to clear up some vines that were growing on my fence last week. I considered poison ivy so I checked some of the leaves against pics on the internet and it was mostly Virginia Creeper. There was some other stuff in there too but i had on gloves right. So I tore into it...shirtless. I WAS being careful not to actually touch the stuff with skin but it was a fairly large growth in several areas. needless to say there was also a significant amount of posion ivy growing with it. I remember it touching my forearms a little, but like I said, I was being careful. I washed up immediately after I was done and was very carful removeing the gloves, which will be discarded. Two days later - it started. I woke up and my arms itched like crazy. Sent the wife to the store to get poison ivy "stuff". All I can say is that this stuff reacts in some people, me included, in an awful way. My arms are swollen up as if I had a snake bite, complete with oozing clear stuff out of large blisters. The itching is driving me crazy, this is day 5 from the initial rash and day 7 from actual exposure to the plant. I went to the Doc 2 days ago and was diagnosed with a severe allergic reaction. He gave me a shot of steroids and 9 days of follow up pills. I think it's helped a lot but its still extremely itchy. It's all over my arms in a bad way. All over my belly, my chest and a small bit on my legs and even my forehead. Completely my fault but wanted to put this out there for awarenes. Do Not mess with poison ivy or any other vines until you are sure what you are dealing with. Even then take serious precautions: Wear gloves Wear several layers of clothing, boots Duct tape where clothes come together Wear a resperator if you have access to one or at least a dust mask Wear safety goggles or better yet a face shield. They say to wash your clothes immediately, I say trash them! Dispose of the vines in yard waste bags, double bag for added protection. NEVER EVER BURN POISON IVY, the toxin becomes airborn and if inhaled can cause death. Obviosuly I didn't do this but I thought about it and did some research first. Virginia Creeper - non toxic Poison Ivy - toxic - HIGH ALLERGIC REACTION FOR ME
  6. remember your port is going to subtract from your ported enclosure volume unless its going to be external.
  7. SInce you are able to play through the iPOD with no issues I woudl start with the RCAs they should be the cheapest to replace.
  8. ok, so triple RMS power with the box on the large side of recommended. I'm going to go with working as intended. As Silvia pointed out playing below tuning + the extra power + high side on the enclosure, sure your gonna bottom out on those really low notes.
  9. Are you sure you are running the amp @ 2ohms? I thought sundowns E12 was a dual 2ohm coil.
  10. Yeah, I think you are on the right track with the wire...
  11. take the sub box wired at 1ohm in your truck and see what it does...
  12. You should upgrade your alternator when your total vehicle amp draw exceeds that of your alternator. Things to consider: Stock Vehicle Electronics eFan add on HID lights Subwoofer amp(s) Mid/High amp(s) additional batteries other electrical add ons
  13. pics of your install would be a bonus
  14. You can not run a 12v and a 14v battery in parellel, they charge at different voltages.
