Hearing loss? huh? what?
....nothing noticeable after 15 yrs.
If my mood switches from rap to rock, my ears ring at night but it's gone by the next day.

i say we have a SMD get together......we all get on a oldschool AC mic with the "gain" on it pegged.......we will have a old-mic showdown. 180's for everyone! If your a noob, no worries, we gotta 160 in there for ya!
We had a little SMD get together at SBN in March, but somebody screwed up and brought a TL...
-
I had these in for about a month... they saw a trip to Daytona for SBN, one competition and a some weekend trips around town...they're barely broken in. Did a 145TL/149AC and I wanted more so I bought a second amp and upgraded to LV4's.
Perfect mechanical/cosmetic condition, will be shipped in original packaging/boxes.
$375 Shipped (signature will be required). Paypal only.

I have a decent computer and it still crashed the browser. How about just posting a link to the vids on youtube?
-
Another impressive vid! Guessing you can't smoke in there while it's turned up?
-
opinion? ... if you bought a running car for $2k and it came with a system that flexes the windshield, I'd say it was a good deal.

What was the purpose of the cap if you've got batteries?

I know someone else on the site who has the floor board for the bottom of the box I wont say his screen name but his real name is John!
Yup, I'm guilty. I hate to admit it on here...that foam does work really well for sealing, although, I'd be pissed if I paid to have something built and that's what I got. Having said that, I'll be rebuilding it all the right way in a few months and hopefully bump my 152+ up a bit.
Bash away.

Any idea what kind of isolator the shop put on to get rid of the alt whine? If it's what I'm thinking (a battery isolator?), that might be your problem...allowing your cap to drain but not affecting your primary battery.
-
maybe something was draining your battery while you were working all day and the light coming on when you opened your door made it drop enough to beep / whine.
-
is that seriously how they ship there subs/in a box hoping it stays put?WOW!!!
Rusty pretty much covered it.... I've bought 4 15s now (2*LV3 & 2*LV4) and regardless of how much UPS tries to beat up the boxes, the subs are safe inside.
-
That cap I had used to have a steady beep when it fell below 10v.
-
SSSSoooo what does everyone think?
I think I should have waited a week longer to order upgrades for my LV3's.
-
Note to self: Done this before, check back in a few hours.

As with most, the video doesn't do this justice... it flexes really nice in person!

Just wanted to update this in case anybody else was trying to do the same thing. I posted the same question on the RF forums last week and got no replies so it still looks like ISO was right by saying that it can't be done (using the RF remote).
I did try running the remote to the first amp but it doesn't affect the rca outs for the second amp. Instead of trying to splice 2 cables together, I just went to plan B - use the sub level control on my EQ (in dash) to achieve basically the same thing as the RCA line level controller, only down side is I have to use buttons to control it instead of a knob - not nearly as convenient. Someday, I'll build separate chambers for the subs and will just run 2 RF remote knobs - or get a bigger amp to replace the 2 1500s as LoudBlazer suggested.
-
You can usually download the drivers you need from the manufacturer website, sometimes even the whole CD.
-
What bugs me is I don't understand why RF feels people are't going to run multiple amps when they design certain models.
I assume they DO expect ppl to run multiple amps since they provide the RCA outs to make it easier.
I got the two amps installed tonight but haven't had a chance to play with them much yet.
-
I'm going to experiment with it this weekend... ISO seems pretty confident that it won't work so I may end up trying that line control from Darvex. Until then, I can use the sub level control on my EQ (in dash) if I have to (pretty sure it does the same thing as that line control, it's just not as easy to use).
-
It should control both amps when connected to 1. best bet would be to ether call Rockford or email them. They are usually pretty quick with there email response.
I was hoping someone on here had already done this and got it to work. This is the response I got from RF when I asked them about splicing the wire to connect both amps (yes, they were quick to get back to me, but it wasn't much help) ...
"I have heard of people saying it works and only gives you 9 db of gain instead of 18, I have others say it doesnt work at all. You will have to try it with your setup."
-
You're already running a set of RCA's from the head-unit to the amps, right?
Hook that unit up on the dash, plug one end into the head-unit, other end goes to the RCA cable that runs to your amps.
At your amps, to hook the 2nd amp up, run an RCA cable from the output on the first amp to the input on the 2nd amp.
Set the gains with that knob at full also.
Ah, ya... that makes sense. I just assumed those were both rca outs.
-
Haha, you want two RF T1500's don't ya?
BFB: You could get this, http://www.darvex.com/miva/merchant.mvc?Sc...Product_Count=1
Plugs into the head-unit and before the amps, remote gain knob.
Thanks, that looks like it would do the job but running another set of cables is easier said than done at this point. Will keep that in mind when I rebuild everything in the fall!
-
sell them and buy a T3K
Great suggestion, but I already have 2 1500s bought and paid for.
-
I'm adding a second RF T1500 and I'm not sure what I need to do to get the remote bass knob to work for both amps. There's no place for a sync cable, no master/slave, just rca in/outs.
I'm wondering if I have the remote connected to the first amp, will it automatically control the second amp through the rca outs? Or should i splice in a second cable and connect both amps that way?
Here's what the amp looks like... Anybody have any suggestions?

Spoken like a true hater - still want a ride to Unite in my slow import? It could be an expensive trip in your 6cyl box on wheels, quiet too since you only have a few 6.5's to listen to.
Nice looking ride, btw. Just don't make it sound like an oversized misquito when you add exhaust.
