I hate when people take the cheap way out...

[Bakerman]

Why would anybody take a cheap way or easy way of doing things? It never sound anywhere as good as normal, and sometimes it could cause danger to your vehicle. If the sucky ass ground this guy had would've moved, or anything, it would've sparked like hell, igniting all of the "pillow stuffing" he had behind the panels as a "ghetto sound dampener". And it was all a b**** to clean out.

Yeah, i get what you're saying. But seriously, if these people would stop assuming they know how to do it, and just look some shit up on google, they would make things alot safer. I learned the hard way, and i hate to have to sit back and watch others do the same. I've almost caught my car on fire, and I have caught someone elses car on fire (not my fault though). Yes, my wiring did fail, but only because he decided to splice into it and didn't insulate it, catching his truck on fire, but he blamed it on me, just a dumbass situation. These people really need to get on a site like this and learn some things before they kill themselves, or worse, their cars.

yeah i know what you mean beforre i ever knew anything about audio except for what was connected to what i learned the hard way that even if you're gonna install something for temparary like a weekend or something like that when you're runnig even 4gauge you still gotta put a fuse up front cuz anything could and will happen. i ended up catching my cuzins truck on fire in front of my high school

Yep...I ruined a whole nights work one time because I was in a hurry. I didn't put a fuse on the Main power line b/c I was only gonna use the setup one day at a local SPL setup, and then I ran the same wire through the door jams. Wire got so hot it melted the battery in half...literally.
