  1. So I was looking into doing a triple OM1 set up in my car, but I didn't want to violate my main rule for my car that it has to be able to be hidden. Then I seen my cup holders in my console with a flip up cover. Who wants to see me fiberglass 3 OM1's in my console cup holder?

      Your running out of room!

  2. I wonder if I should make a build log of my gf's truck. It will be a simple center console build. 5 ch. all DD

  3. So if you were to recone subs ....surround and spider and dust caps. What glues would you use? I'm having trouble finding the correct adhesives. E6000 I've learned wasn't the best choice, and I'm considering 3400lb epoxy now for everything except the dust cap. Any thoughts?
  4. Well.... If you think about it like this. If someone that was a friend of a friend or not a very close friend but someone you were cool with. And they brought you that car to do what you did to it. I wouldn't think it would be unreasonable for you to be willing to sell it for (car value + equipment + fair labor + materials = sale cost) You don't hear shops telling guys they won't put rims on their car because it will be worth more then the car, or a mechanic saying that the $500 in tires your putting on it is worth more then the tarcel or something. But thats the custom / aftermarket world we live in. Im sure as long as its not OVER msrp on all products, and its not some crazy number per hour for labor (like $500 an hour or something), and your not adding years of sentimental value for no clear reason then i don't see a problem with asking for what is a fair trade for the car as it sits. Just my thoughts. On another note, anyone who got the "Meade-Me-Downs" on any of your vehicles would have a pretty sweet ride.
  5. thanks man! The Honda got interrupted by the 72 Chevelle project. By the time i finished i lost my motivation again. Hard to stay motivated on a car you don't drive that just sits there. I'm sure ill either get back on it soon or rip it all out and sell the car. I have too many pink slips to deal with i am getting tired of having all these cars taking up space. I say you give me a price on it ( with everything in it ) and we'll come back down from maine and pick it up! i would consider that except i would feel bad about the price i would have to ask. I mean it wouldn't be retarded but it would be more than the car is worth for sure. Plus it would be a pain for you to deal with the air system. It needs an update...or at least some new coil overs all the way around which would be good too. She does only have 62,000 miles iirc though. Don't we all have systems that are worth more then our cars? I added up what i have in my $2k honda and it totaled about 11k with audio and mechanics stuff. LOL.
  6. And. She is done. <3

      I'm tLking the accord. She is done. Nothing left to do on her audio wise or audio related cosmetics. Simply maintain now.:) which shouldn't be a issue how I have her set up

  7. So today I GREATLY improved my low end response / SPL. Ear o meter is reading a 1 to 2 db increase below 28hz. It cost a total of $22 at lowes. Updates coming on the build log later.

      What did you do? I plan on lowering my tuning later this week.

      doesnt sound like he lowered tuning but rather increased low end output

  8. If you could pick any coupe / sedan to do a huge trunk build in and get minimum 20mpg... What would you choose?

  9. After your 8th or 9th revision of your next build, it starts to get realistic :D. True story here.

      8 or 9? GFY

      I've been sketching shit up for months.

      Swordlordboy1234

      Well due to the multiplication rule, you should have about 72 sketches to my 8... Since you have 8 rebuilds to my 1 :D

  10. Has anyone ever re tapped a speaker input on a amp? I figure its gotta be similar to any other re threading process.

  11. When you finish your current build (100%) and your already excited for the future build. You might be a basshead

  14. Any SQ / SQL guys have thoughts on illusion audio? I was having a debate today with a shop and they were arguing that illusion was superior to almost any brand I named. Won't mention those here to abide by the rules.

      Bullydog Show in Dallas! Nov. 15th!!!! I'll be there and it'll be red ruby first show!!

  17. The walled sundown truck is finished. Debating if I should load it in my build log or make another build log for it.

  18. In the life of selling audio, everyone wants something for less then posted and always want free shipping. Why don't I just over post and include shipping in the prices so people feel like their getting a deal?

      I love it when a customer comes in and says how much is this and this and you tell them and they have this huge reaction like your trying to rape them and they say " well i can get it for this much over at this place" I think to myself "Well why dont you go over there and get it then" LOl

      there is a guy over here who spent over 2000€ on some crappy install...the shop practically ripped him off,...the guy found out after i told him to check the internet prices....total price for amp,radio and sub was neearly 200€, so work was....18oo?

  19. Thanks sundown. Figured it would instantly be solved if I posted it here. Hence why I did it. Call it my faith in your customer service. No info has passed through the lines to me (the installer yet) and the customer was asking me questions directly so in order to find answers I posted this topic. Thank you sundown for being very helpful.
