a for the night thing, if you really wanted to you can put some nice bright lights that only turn on when you want (switch, or your headlights must be one, and in reverse etc)

Tuche <-- or however the fuck thats spelled

will put up a pic later. . . sister has the car, and i noticed the drop in highs, but not much boost in lows at all, thats all i was questioning

so the box is built and im not quite sure what to think of it. I like the low sleek look inside of my old bulky looking box. its my second box built and i think it cam out well. but the sound is just kinda eh. It hit some lower notes but nothing seems to be as loud as before. and it doest play high notes as well(good and bad). i noticed that when my hand is at the port, there is only air coming from the left side of it....i mean from the whole thing yes but mainly the left side there is more air. . . . i did not put 45's in though. help??

Very Good to know!! If it has remote start(which it does) it can still be installed without it though?

Test for function? as in put a DVM on a wire and correspond that with a car wire diagram?? I think i just answered my own question but literally just find out what the wire does correct?

Right now there isn't to much money into my build, enough for it to really suck if it got stolen but not thousands worth. I have a 99 Grand Cherokee, with locking doors and such, but no alarm. If i leave the window down you can unlock it and nothing, break a window, nothing. In a few months I'm planning on getting two Mayhem 18's. There a grand strait up, that i obviously want to protect. I live in Manch NH so its not to safe haha (Yes i know there's worse) Anyways, I'm looking at this Viper 2 way unit That is in good budget. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_16156_Viper-5901-p-n-5702V.html Should i even remotely attempt to install it on my own? I've never done one, or anything alike really. I have a DMM, and google. Do or don't? Also, If i can somewhat figure it out, What are some things to keep in mind. Do i need anything else? Where should the alarm go? Just anything to make it a good install. . . . Lastly, depending on where It's installed, if someone were to break in, how hard is it to stop the alarm? as in cut x wires and such if it can even be stopped IDK I AM A NOOB with alarms so please just fill me in on shit i dont know! Thanks

going off my ear, im gonna preguess that it clips at 37, on flat EQ meaning 36 is good, but we'll see haha

Hey man, i got the Dual XHDR6435 (older) and the specs are about the same. . .600peak, 18 rms, 2volt pre outs. My DD1 should be here by friday, ill let you know what that clips at and i bet thatll give you a pretty damn close idea on yours. not to mention they are both CEA-2006. . . if yours goes to 46 max like mine, we should technically have the same number for clippin volume

why not just go new???

Where should i make the sub cutout for the top?? completely centered? somewhere off to the right, or does it not matter? Box is done except the top

for the port, and left and right plate, the cutout sheets say it tice, mistake of the program? or double it?????mpicking up the wood and titebond 2 today (: starting the box NVRMND i realized if you have an angled box it gives the top and bottom dimennsions for the sides, but if its square, its the same. got it haha

nope :/ ive looked friggen everywhere!! i might save up and buy a TL this summer and have small shows to make up some of the money back. just a thought. i have i shitty radioshack db meter which isnt accurte, but as far as whats louder i think it does ok

its all good haha, think ill be able to get some ok tl numbers with it to?

lol ok ok sorry ill trust you! (: thankyou so much! ill put up some pics later this week, i have a comp next saturday so ill throw up a vid with that box (:

that rockford is 20 bucks shippin though :/ still wish i saw that but i picked one up for 65 shipped. should do what i want it to do (: thanks guys

isnt 3.4 cubes a bit big though? im going to be over powering the sub from 600 to roughly 1100 so should it be smaller? but if not thankyou!

So you still run up to the radio, and then to the speakers (just with good speaker wire) so your rear right speakrs cable is like friggen rediculously long??? right

so just so everyone is one the same page i guess. picture a 4 door car. the 4 channel amp is in the trunk (just saying) RCAs run down the left side, and power on the right(doesnt matter which perspective) where to you run your speakers wires? down the left side, all the way friggen around to the right side, or the left two down the left, and the right two down the right??

so you run from your amp all the way around your car? for your speakers?

ok, thats prob what im gonna do anyways unless i hear stuff but thanks for your input!

So i know your supposed to run you RCAs and signal wire on one side and the power wire on the other. . . thats how i have my mono amp, now that im getting a 4 channel i obv do the same thing, but, when i run my speaker wires, do i run the ones that are on the side of the power wire all the way around? or just run them next to the power wire???

Im on the RE calc and heres what i got. 40 wide x 20 deep x 12 high with 3/4 MDF port is 5.5in wide and 10.5in tall, and the first wall is 13.75 and the one on the back wall is 9.25 giving me a total length of 32 says the box is 3.2 cubic feet (before displacement) and is tuned to 35 HZ port area per foot is 19" Does this sound ok??? to much port area??

prob somewhere around 600rms ish and about 10in of port
