rockFord_Expedition Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 Bought some new Boston Acoustics pro60SE's for my front doors, went to begin installation when I got home from work with about an hour of daylight left... Long story short, I pulled my box & subs, amps, I ripped the 2 back rows of seats out and began redoing some of my wiring. Haven't even pulled my door panels off yet. WTF! Made me feel like when I go to Wal-Mart for 1 or 2 things and leave with a cart full of crap. Unnecessary. Lol.

TRON Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 Pretty much every time I've "adjusted" something on my amps, I practically re-wire them. Its almost like I think it will improve the sound by running new wire, because that wire gets old real fast don'tchyaknow, robs your performance man.

SnowDrifter Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 I always get hung up on the little things that should take the least amount of time. The big stuff goes by fast, but it's the details that get me. Like drilling a hole or wiring in a relay or something lol ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CleanSierra Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Did the same thing the other day. Went to replace a my set of components only to replace fronts/rears, rewire xovers(with connections soldered and shrink wrapped and drilled new holes for tweets and fixed driver door handle(damn thieves broke my pretty handle) and re EQ'd everything. 2 hour project=8 hours. I was done at 4 AM It's the price to pay for being anal about an install too. Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
