      It wouldn't let me post in their section. Did something happen I need to know about before I try to spend my money with them

      They are good Colman. Your safe.

  2. So funny seeing Irragi argue with someone on FB saying he has never screwed anyone over and has always taken care of his customers. ROTFL That topic is just all laughs and to think people will still end up buying Alts from him.

      im waiting for tenney to try and pull the same thing

  3. So I ordered 2 Kinetik batteries from Audiosavings over a month ago.Today i find out they received batteries back 7 days afterthey shipped yet I never was notified and was constantly told to wait 30days for them to arrive.Guess it never crossed their minds to actually check what the fuck was going on with the order.So now I'm without batteries that I needed and still have to wait to receive a damn refund. I'm DONE!!!

      have you called them? They are usually VERY good at taking care of customers, even when mistakes happen.

      Yes sir and was told basically it doesn't matter if they shipped them before,once they get returned they wont even try again.Also contacted them by email more than once.To only receive an email back stating I needed to wait 30 days for them to arrive when they already had the batteries back at their werehouse.Batteries shipped on the 22nd of June and were returned to them on the 29th but i was never notified

  4. So my alternator voltage set point apparently is 15.3 but I thought it was 14.8 So why in the heck does it charge at 14.8 with the blue wire connected and 15.3 without it?

    1. Lbox88

      Lbox88

      Fuck, IIRC the blue wire is like a feedback loop in an amp circuit using an op-amp, it's to regulate it basically.

    2. Real96SS

      Real96SS

      Yeah i been talking to Anthony at DC and he said that when its not connected the alternator thinks it needs to charge higher and thats why its charging at 15.3.So I can actually do a QD on it so at comps i can charge at 15.3 instead of 14.8 :)

    3. Lbox88

      Lbox88

      Or better yet, add wire and wire it up to a switch inside your vehicle to the alt so that you don't even need the QD and can easily do it whenever you want to ;)

  5. So no more TechForce either?Holy crap the sponsors are dropping like flies round here.

      Yeah its the second time recently I come on here looking for a certain sponsor only to find them no longer here.I don't know what happened but it just shocked me to see them gone cause both(from what I could tell)were doing an awesome job.Could have been a business move for all I know.

  6. So Sonic tells me that they cant ship the Kinetik HC2400 because the listing says its over 70lbs eventhough I have had 4 already shipped here.They said they cant weigh it themselves.I think they just dont want too.What happened to that company that shipped me the other batteries for $12 a piece?

  7. So what are the basic Grit sandpaper you need when dealing with fiberglass?Also what other tools would you recommend besides just a orbital sander?

      pimpnFosgates

      i use 40 and 80 for fiberglass. and 80 to 180 for bondo. if u sand with 180 itll sand smooth enough that you wont see scratches in the primer. anything lower and you will. i go as high as 240 before primer sometime. just me...

  9. So you got 8 total 1/0 runs from your 270amp alternator to the rear?Why?

      Im not the expert but I have 2 runs in my Avalanche per alternator and that was with CCA wire.Now I'm switching it out with OFC.

    3. n8ball2013

      n8ball2013

      if you can only produce 270 amps thats really all the wire you need to support it.

      Ok.  Thanks guys.  I'll keep that in mind.

  10. So you say your that way because of where you from?I'm not understanding.Last time I checked I grew up in those same streets,same projects,went to the same schools,hung out on those same corners and you don't see me settling for shit.Motivation is the key to success.Don't blame the environment or others for your lack of success blame it on yourself because you decided to settle.

  11. Sometimes you just want to reply to certain people but you dont cause it would be mean and they would probably just say your hating.

  12. Sorry about 2 statuses back to back but I feel some special right now. I just got a phone call from DC Power letting me know what was going on with me alts.Didn't ask them to call but it made my day for sure.Guess things are turning around over at DC Power.

      Seems that way.I remember reading somewhere that Kyle said they were making changes due to certain people not really taking care of customers the way they should have been.Im sure if he see's this post he will chime in.

      I have no clue what Im going to do to try and fix it.Thought about trying some JB weld or something if not then I have to fork up the money and buy a new one

      even if you get the puncture fixed youll need refill the compressor with coolint.

      Real96SS

      I guess I did but replying "I want in" means you want on the team. As for the money and blow jobs,that went right over my head as too what exactly that was suppose to mean

      Real96SS

      Welding some 2x1/4 tubing with a Lincoln 80a wire feeder(I think thats right). I had a friend show me some basics but I have had to pretty much learn on my own. Youtube helped LoL

  19. Time to upgrade Alts so getting rid of the DC Power 270xp's.Should have a for sale thread soon but if you want send me a PM

      Came off my 2007 Avalanche and I put up a for sale thread for them with all the info

  20. Tomorrow I get all my household items from Italy.So I will be able to see all my Audio stuff out and determine what I need to move forward with the new build.Also should have pics of both 9ks side by side

  21. Unless you have really good electrical,It's probably better to look at amps that show ratings at 12v.

      i look for ones that rate them at 6.8

    3. meade916

      meade916

      RF rates my T2500.1bd @ 2500watts, 12v.  I like that they tell me how much power it makes @ 14.4 also.  Just like all their amps, you get what you pay for and even MORE once the car is running.

    4. Real96SS

      Real96SS

      Yep Rockford's CP amps are monsters.I just noticed that most show rated power at 14.4v instead of 12v. This is just one more thing I wanted to take into account when selecting amps for my next setup.

  22. Vans? What do people consider the best years for Astros when it comes to SPL?
