Pretty cool for one sub absolutly out does our escort hands down :( . But it works for her lol. Nice demos the last one seems insane. How quiet was your car after that one?

thanks for that! Yours is a LOT cleaner though lol. I need to get around to fiberglassing a beauty panel that I'm going to dread :( any progress on a new bass vehicle??? Boyd's jeep was insane. 155db to the face lol. Actually after hearing Randen Fall's explorer, I got in my car and pulled over on the way home to check if the RCAs were all the way in... They were. I was just deaf :P

Hear a big system then get in your own car and it seems like it isn't working lol.

It's a rats nest. I don't care now. I'll clean it up and make a proper system of keeping the battery in place as well as wire organization :)

Also I got my trophy in the mail :)

I'm having issues either with my RCA connection at the amp or RCA connections internally in the amp. I'm going to investigate before I invest in a new set of RCAs.
