Nice scores Zach :clapping: ...and the beauty of it is that they will only go up from here.

A half-wit gave you a piece of his mind, and you held on to it.

Thanks Joe, I've hit a minor snag and that's why I haven't put up a video yet. It was actually snowing here in NC on Sunday and a little on Monday. I need to find out where my spl went and I also had to do some repair work on one of the subs. The spider came unglued. There was a bad batch of glue that went through the manufacturer and isnt' a big deal cause some 5 minute epoxy and I'm good. I should have the sub back in the car today and probably get a video going for you guys.

On another note a 149.7 at 42hz makes me pretty happy. I was happy before with the 149.7 at 52hz, but doing it 10hz lower is even better http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/hairtrick.gif http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/hairtrick.gif http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/hairtrick.gif

You making the trip up to Michigan again this year?

I want to get a demo. :)

I don't know about Michigan, but Ohio for sure.

On another note I think that I may know where the issue is at. I'm going to try and check it out on Thursday and hopefully it's what I've been told it could be. I have 2 videos that I took today and they aren't very good so I'm hesitating on weather or not to put them up. Each of them is short and not the best at showing the potential of the car. I couldn't find an area where I felt it was safe to really let it rip wide open without disturbing anyone.

Thanks for the suggestions. Here is the dilema though. If I mount the amps on the seats they will still rest against the box and take some of the vibrations. If I mount them against the box the same will happen. I'm kinda leaning towards the box cause it's easier to mount stuff to and I can also put my distrobution blocks on there with no issues. I had both of the 1500's mounted to the seats when I first got them and the seats kept falling foward when I would make a stop because of the weight of the amps forcing them foward. I think I'll go with the box for now.

I should have some more progress pics tonight if anyone's ready for those?

One thing to try is going to lowes or something and getting the thick rubber mat that you put under carpet. Thats what i did when i mounted mine back to my box. cut down on vibrations a huge amount. I have enough left for both of your amps if you want it. lol i just dont have anyway of getting it to you now that the jeep is out of comission. Looking great though boss i didnt even see the build log until today.
