  1. Nice kerf job. I am jealous I do not have the talent, tools, or patience to do that.
  2. wondering if you make anything bigger than that 105a on your site.
  3. it is on the charger we will see. it hasnt smelled funny, got hot, or gotten swollen so we will see. its on slow 2amp charge.
  4. yeah anything below 6ohms is asking a ton out of a home receiver, but just saw dual 4 so maybe you had it at 8. Sucks man.
  5. Why not get some bstock skars, or obsidians? And you said you are selling an amp? Skar has the amp trade in program where he gives you "store credit" for it and then you can use that towards subs.
  6. I did. They are wired and sitting stable at 1.4ohms. nice. looks like you got some dual 2's, if you got 1.4 on each coil separately. No they are dual 4's. I think I got a good find. how are they dual 4's if they read 1.4? unless you measured each sub in parallel Yeah two dual 4 subs gives you around 1 @ the amp. I thought I said that. My bad. wait...i still dont understand. how were the subs wired when you measured the coils? when you measure straight on the coils you get dcr. sometimes its higher or lower I have seen 4 ohm coils read anywhere from 3.1 to 5 ohms on a multimeter.
  7. I got a free kinetik hc800 and it is completely dead. It wont even register on my multimeter. Can I try and charge this thing or just toss it?
  8. It is now just Metra at least that is what it is branded as in Best buy, I haven't worked there in 3-4 years so a ton of things have changed for sure but I am sure you can get 12-18ga ofc there no doubt. Home theater will sell Acoustic Research or Monster. If it has a Magnolias then it will always have ofc for their stuff, but that is $$$ he wasn't trying to spend and I understand that. But their brand Dynex and Rocketfish is sold in every store. So Rocketfish 16ga 30' spool is like 20-30 bucks thats a ton of money for 16ga. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Rocketfish%26%23153%3B+-+30%27+Spool+Speaker+Cable+-+Clear/8315423.p?id=1174694191741&skuId=8315423&st=speaker%20wire&cp=5&lp=5 that is available is every store i would bet.
  9. This is where I am glad I have firefold about 10 minutes from me, they carry everything you need as far as home theater. So speaker wire is no prob, hdmi, coax, anything. But if you dont have that luxury it hurts. Ohh and as far as Best Buy all stores should carry the metra wire, not the greatest but its ofc. Just checked shows available in all Detroit MI stores.
  10. Best buy you could have in the install bay they have or atleast when i installed there years ago had spools of 8,12,and 16ga wire.
  11. I agree the customer and slaes/installer would like to see, feel, hear the product so you know what you are dealing with. And it is true people will buy whats in stock NOW and rather not wait. I hope brick and mortar come back it was so much fun working in stereo shops.
  12. No he needed 20 feet or so, I am sure he didnt just splice it together he reran the runs.
  13. decently beefy compared to what soundstream has been in the recent past.
  14. I agree, it has come to the ebay and walmart shopper dictating the way industry goes. That is why true enthusiast and hobbiest flock to the internet for internet direct brands. There seems to be a reversal lately with a good bit of the i.d. companies going into retail with SHOK, DC, Sundown, and more. Hopefully it will change and you wont have to go online to knu, or wait 3-10 days to get a quality product. Hopefully this industry comes back strong like it has been but can make it to brick and mortar stores so it can help with jobs and popularity growing again.
  15. i have heard it on a ton of demo videos but its at 2:25 in the video
  16. What he said^^^ Run all your positives from the coils of the subs to one positive on the amp and all the negatives to one negative on the amp. Done. no these subs take power trust me. just set your gains correctly.
  17. What he said^^^ Run all your positives from the coils of the subs to one positive on the amp and all the negatives to one negative on the amp. Done. they even have jumpers that come with the subs makes it really easy.
  18. you have 2 dual 4's run them at 1ohm and now you get 1500x1 or 750 a sub.
  19. nice, quick question what is the song that says get out get out
  20. good idea, i would choose ab over everything else i listed.
  21. kicker cvt is 150w rms and right under 3" deep, earthquak 6.5 sub is 100w rms, and there is always the jl(bleh) its 150w rms and 4.25" deep
