That's what I would do but we all know he's not going to.

going to order a pioneer 80 prs next week any one know what the biggest flash drive that it will work with? or is there a way to make it work with a external hard drive?

I have a 32 gig IPad mini I use, and a 64g flash drive. It runs fast. But yes the display will zonk out here and there if you get things moving. I can do it on demand with about 13 songs that in know of. You just flip the face down, and back up and it will come back alive. Not a big big deal, but it can get somewhat annoying.
-
I added a two part set up mud/glue to the reciever sleeve to the plastic molding. Then added 2 thin pieces of strapping to the rear of the unit, and self tapped the straps to the dash metal. It helped. But when the entire dash gets moving, what else can ya do!? The pins in the flip down need to be upgraded or something. Again, mine now only does it here and there. But yes, it still does it.

Ky black Thanks for the the imput. Still thinking it's the best option what I am trying to do. Need a better hu that I can go active on that doesn't break the bank and has a good eq crossover

Ive seen the og mayhems take a ton. Here is one of 15 rigs i knew of in the day running mayhems (all the og mayhems) Tims blazer. 4 18" mayhems on 2 9k tfhes at .35 (yes, .35) Tim played that thing all fucking weekend. Never had a issue, and these where Rays old subs he beat on for years.

I personally would go with the SB Acoustics, not just because I have them but I was on the same path you were when I decided to buy them. I was looking for the loudest soft dome tweeter without having to go super tweeters and my last option was under dash horns. Which I couldnt see myself forking over 500 bucks for them so I sought out after some soft dome's wtih great output and that is how i ended up with the SB's.
-
Depending on how much work you want to do you could try the Morel CAT 378 tweeters, a guy on this forum with the White 300C with a big wall build uses them and he loves them.
-
Thanks man probably will go with those then. Your happy with yours. How much rms our you putting to them. What does your substage consist of?
-
think I blew a tweeter or two :-(. any suggestions on silk tweeters to keep up with my substage that won't break the bank?
- Show previous comments 7 more
-
How much rms do they take and what.do u have them crossed @
-
They take 100 rms, I had mine crossed at 2.5K but could go lower. Just depends on your listening habits really, but they do have killer output and sound great. Here is more info on them:

These are the exact same tweeters used in Arc Audio's top of the line Black Series and also what NVX copied for their component line up as well.

What's is cost for someone to do a recone on a ascendant audio mayhem 12?
- Show previous comments 7 more
-
Ya just waiting on that recone now then have to get that thing reconed then install it and I'll be playing again can't wait to hear these beasts. These our the biggest subs I've ever owned.
-
It is worth it to spend the extra money on the guy who knows what he is doing. A buddy of mine does them for people around here and think he charges 50-60.
And I know how nerve racking it can be reconing a sub and not wanting to mess it up. My first recone was a level 5 18 I did.
-
Ya just going with the more expensive guy worth my piece of mind has like 6 references so going that route. Getting my recone and basket tommrow so hopefully will be able to get it done soon and finnaly hear what these 6 mayhems 12s will do.

Anyone else ever heard of extra heavy duty tires because of system weight or is mechanic bsing me

I have a Sierra 1500 and run mud tires. I off-road a little bit. I run 10 ply tires just for their strength. Takes away from the ride but they can handle more abuse. If you are ballooning then probably yes you could use some load E tires.
-
Thanks guys for the info now to find some good deals on tires

Yes with that much weight Load E

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...
