  2. I know you all know this already. But since I started working for UPS and seeing what goes on... Prepare your amps/subs for fucking battle, all out war. Because when it comes time to Pre-load, it's straight-up D-Day in this bitch.

      I pick up all the packages myself just fine. anything over 70lbs and you need to have someone help you with it, some policy. And 95% of the packages are lighter than 5 lbs.

      Lol.

      It depends if your alternator is PCM controlled. If it is, then you are fucked if you stick with the standard wiring. If it is not PCM controlled, then you can get a Voltage Boost module from Mechman.

      Lol, that'd suck. But naw, he said I am in if they have a position for me. And they do. Just waiting on background check to clear and then he's calling me. My stepdad knows the HR guy and he forwarded info to the employer. So I should be A-OK.

      I've had this issue before and it was because of the ipod cable. Maybe try a different one? Just an idea.

  18. Just switched from my 8gb iPhone 4 to a 32gb iPod Touch 3rd Gen for the music source in my car. And holy sound quality batman! The difference between my iphone and ipod is ridiculous!! I don't even understand but I can roll with it!

      Whenever you are using the 3.5mm jack on an iPhone/iPod you are also using its DAC. The iPod probably has a better one, I know my iPad does. That is why I hate iDevices for music playback, it's annoying as fuck to bypass their internal amplifier.

      I noticed the same with my 160gig ipod classic and my 4th gen ipod touch, I couldn't use the EQ on the classic, it was pure distortion, but the EQ on the ipod touch just quiets down or boosts certain frequencies without sounding bad

  19. Damn.. One of my friends was on his way to my house and they got t-boned by a guy that blew a light. One of them is in the hospital. Just found out.

      I'm pretty sure it was the vibrations that killed it. It was mounted on my box, and I didn't ever drop below 12v and I never clipped it.

    3. Omega5002

      Omega5002

      Yeah, that's very common for the amp to fall apart from the box, next time just mount it on a board, or on the back of the seat if possible. Mine isn't mounted on the box since I don't wanna ruin my box, and that reason

    4. Raptorman

      Raptorman

      Yeah, looks like I'm gonna have to build some sort of rack. It's just tough, I don't have much room.

  22. Thinking of taking the plunge with Taramp's whenever money is situated. Seem solid.

  23. 30 feet of Radaflex 1/0 welding cable coming in today! Can't wait to replace this awful wire. Shit's ridiculously cheap too. OFC for $2.48/foot.
