      Was the best show I've been told. Love that you can walk around with a beer in your hand and get demos. Lot of cool ass people there that our loud . Makes me want to wall my truck need to get louder! ! :-)

  5. well went to work on my truck to fix some stuff and radiator went out so replaced hoses and thermostat and radiator and was doing tuneup and spark plug broke in engine. hopefully we can get it out or I am screwed :-(

      Set the piston to the bottom of the bore and use an oxy torch to heat the plug and use an extraction tool, take your time and if the plug starts getting tight when unscrewing it, just reheat and repeat till the plug is removed.

      Must be a Ford.

      Easy to get out if you have the proper tools.

      Just go, and be that one good guy greg, who demo's for everybody. Everybody loves demos. I went last year, and thankfully got a few demos. Sadly, a lot wouldnt, and only wanted to compete.

      Broke_Audio_Addict

      Considering I've seen them used for $200 I think you overpaid.

    4. Rich Schenk

      i think u r wrong there $1100 retail thru mmats cheapest ive seen new is $739. wouldnt buy used because you never know how someone took care of it. also already on the way there so it is what it is

  12. Need help figuring out what I should do next. I need to upgrade my front stage badly. At high volumes mids and highs right downed out by the bass. I'm going to add my other set off crescendo rts-1 in a pillar above the other set. Need to add other arc audio mids to front doors. Thinking about buying New hu leaning towards Pioneer 80prs would like to go active eventually and would be better then the Kenwood I am running. Also debating which amp to get fixed mmats sq4100 or crossfire vr804...

  17. what size threaded inserts to mount american bass xfls?

    1. scooter99

      scooter99

      Depends on the application. I always use 1/4-20 inserts on my subs. If the hole is too small on the rim of the sub, I drill it out. But each person has their own preferences.
