      Check with Lem43606, he's down your way and had his hand inside a sub or two's soft parts ;)

      Will do when i'm ready too get it done. Told myself I'll completely finish my current build first.

  2. 5.52cuft for 2 t2d415. would it be worth it to go through the hassle of cutting some plastic and metal to gain .16cuft (5.68)? not sure if it would be worth cutting the car up?

      Thats also only the difference of running one sub inverted. Not worth cutting.

      Ive tried to warn him about the space all.. but... he is hard core in the choice..

  3. about a week ago i won a rockford fosgate button of their facebook page and today i got it the mail. my 6 year old daughter already asked me if she can wear it to school on monday. she is a car fanatic in the making.

      my wife and her family are hating on me because Im excited about it and wearing it right now. not to mention I wont one of the shirts they gave away on facebook for thanksgiving. just so happen to be wearing it when I checked the mail. so now I have a Rockford shirt with a Rockford button on and my Rockford hat. now I just need a sweater and key chain lol.

  4. after looking at iasca and usaci classes it seems like i have no choice but to wall if i want to run 2 15s... looking at meca classes now

    1. Ninja_v1.0

      Ninja_v1.0

      well it seems you didnt look very hard because I know for a fact there are a few classes you can run 15's in for IASCA

    2. alaskanzx5

      alaskanzx5

      Not when you take the back seats out lol. Can't fit a 6 cuft after displacement box in a hatchback focus in the cargo area as the require ments say. Then I kinda doubt ill be able to get into the low 50s it seems like people do in the classes that allow the rearseat to be taking out. 2 t2d4 and a single t1500.1 in a wall rather then a more typical box would have a much better chance.

  5. been up since somtime wednesday, just gotta make it until 5ish when the wife gets off work. 2.5 hours to go, these will feel likethe longest hours ever.

      Yea that sounds like a good idea

  6. driving down the street after a long day and work listening to decaf. was feeling tired so i to the cover off the hatcback to allow the air to flow never seen my car flex like that before.

    1. alaskanzx5

      alaskanzx5

      driver window was cracked about 1-2" and and before taking the cover off it wasnt flexing much. pulled over stretched took the cover off and wow. the driver window was going crazy.

  7. feeling like x-mas already. slowly starting to buy more stuff for my new build  just picked up 16g rockford speaker wire, 60ft of it. it will be going from the t400.4 to the punch pro mids and tweets.

  8. freezing cold out and our furnace stopped working, everyone is cuddled up in a bedroom with some space heaters until we can get the furnace working.

  9. got my punch pro mids today, hooked them up for a full song, gin and juice. the start of the song where they poor it ito the glass i felt like i could grab the glass and drink it. i was amazed. anyone that is hating on them needs to listen to them first.

    1. 8ight

      8ight

      Anyone hating on any driver that doesn't have anything wrong with it can't install shit! Glad to hear you like the mids, I really like the look of those speakers.

    2. alaskanzx5

      alaskanzx5

      yeah, there back in the boxes now. cant wait until i can get them on my t400.4. they really did sound good on just the 14 watts rms that the hu does with very limited hpf control compared to what im gonna be doing. gonna run the 80prs in network mode.

  10. got my rockford shirt and stickers in the mail today, all have pics of them with my hx2 power 12 tomorrow.

  11. got my taxes but this year im currently unemployed and cant have fun with it. going to stretch it out as long as i can. hopefully things get better soon and i can atleast use some of it for building a box for my hx2 power 12. maybe ill get lucky and get a job agian soon so that i can get back on my feet and actually start my build.

      You get taxes taken out of your unemployment checks then get a return on them, and it's usually nice since unemployment is like 60% (or whatever) of what your wage was anyways

      Seem legit as fuck to me.... Good thing there are people that make that happen.

    4. alaskanzx5

      alaskanzx5

      If anyone wants to hate on me because a got a little in tax return then go for it. it doesn't affect me anyways. I got under 2k back and what I got back is what I paid in.

  12. have a nice new t400.4 birthsheet says 491rms total and 2 t2d415 sitting right here in my living room. cant beat a buy one get one free sale on a $900 sub. the only issue i have is im moving state in just over 2 weeks and so i wont even be able to hook it up. gotta get them shipped out with our furniture within the week.

    1. WastedTalent

      WastedTalent

      I swear, I had to read that like 5 times to see if you were selling or not. Lol. But yeah, that's the pain about moving. It'll be worth it though. Just wait.

    2. alaskanzx5

      alaskanzx5

      lmao, no way am i selling it. although i want to get another focus hatchback but with a manual tranny when we get down there. i have a 250 amp singer alt and im buying an adjustable regulator for it soon for my focus now so another focus is a good choice since i already have the alt. my wife however wants a sedan, trying to find out the trunk measurements of a 2000-2004 focus zts sedan trunk to see if i can fit 2 15s, i doubt it though.

  13. hopefully heading out to Michigan by tomorrow night. just got to pull $800 together. long story short my mom told me that me and my.kids can go live in a tent. can't come upbeats the money for tickets to Alaska as fast as I can get the money to go to Michigan.

      Well, moved for family and no one acts like family anymore. They all just want what will benefit them. Goya take care of my wife and kids before worrying about other family members. It's a job working at a car audio shop in Alaska, start pay 12 an hour. I know the owner, real cool guy and has helped me out a few times.

    3. alaskanzx5

      alaskanzx5

      I've sort of been looking for a job in the car audio field fir a little while now. Tired if working dead end jobs, this will give me a chance at a job I can turn into a career. The shop dies everything from car audio to home audio and even sell nice high end furniture to go with the nice during sound setups they can custom setup in your living room. Not to forget the discounts I can get. Push them to but smd product to help petiole in the industry learn the right way to setup amps and eve...

      Well they said they would rather higher me for sales because of my exp. With Rockford products (their best selling brand). Said they will be looking for sales later this year.

  19. just got my t400.4 and punch pro 6.5 and tweets hooked up and playing. sound amazing, i didnt expect them to be so clean and clear sounding when they are spl intended speakers. cant wait to get some better rca's and run my 80prs in network mode.

  20. just got rear ended, the lady gets out of her car asking if im high or if ive been drinking yelling that im a drugy. was saying i made an illegal right hand turn in a right hand turning lane into a mccdonalds parking lot. tol her how is it illegal to make a right hand turn in a right hand turning lane into a parking lot? her reply was your a drugy! ask her if she had a cell phone she said yes i told her to call the police and she took off almost hitting another driver

      im not gonna sweat it. eventually she will get what is hers anways. as for the police, o well. a freind of mine is currentlly going through training, hopefully she will be the turn around needed. im not saying all the cops here suck but from my experience with them the last 4 times in the last 2 years they have done nothing to help. they are to protect and serve the people but so far i have not seen them uphold to wait the y claim to be. i now there are some that do good but i just havent had...

      Is this possible? Im sorry for the shitty situation, but this would be absolutely hilarious if this turns out to be the same 2 people that hit each other.

      That's why it's a maybe going to Alaska. we could get work in Alaska faster through friends but in Michigan they keep telling us we can work temp jobs. having kids we need to keep a more steady income.
