The phrase "broke/busted out/shattered my back window"

Instant sign of a car audio douchebag. Just tired of hearing it.

Clipping highs. Clipping subs don't sound too bad until you are REALLY clipping them. Clipping mids sound awful. But clipping tweeters? Yuck no I'll pass. Seriously.

what do clipping tweeters sound like?

Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, debt is the money of slaves. Just my .02c

I have trunk rattle now. Those 18" are killing the trunk lid. Going to take some serious work to kill that shit. Sounds great inside the car; outside is like one of those Florida donks with eleventy-billion subs in the trunk. Kinda makes me want to falcon punch a baby panda. This nonsense ain't gonna fly, no way no how.

2005 Ford Focus zx4

AMT's and Planars

18" Infinite baffle

Honestly, the cost of anybody's car or system doesn't matter.

This. I don't drive a shitty truck and my system is starting to get close to what I paid for the truck. Lol

Used to have a loud truck

CCA wire. I've never understood why people use it. Yeah... it might be cheaper. But it's less conductive too.

Around half the cost for just over half the conductivity. 10% copper/90% aluminum mix is only 60% as conductive as copper. Once you factor in costs like fuses, terminals, grommets.... Whatever, your cost/performance ratio ends up being about the same as OFC anyway. So why not save the trouble and use that in the first place?

not to mention you may not have the option to go larger, like say your amp has 4 gauge inputs... you're just killing it using CCA
