Wow, looks like a beast! But the price point.....$10 less than an SA-12, really?
The money and time invested in developing a high quality sub is a lot. Jacob has to make a living.

Maybe it's time to get the 4500s and more batteries?
I'm ready, just waiting on a company to make me a dual alt bracket.
I called Jacob and he gave me some advice, so time to get tweekin'
Try calling a chassis fabrication shop in your area. I know the chassis shop that did the roll cage in my car has made some custom alternator brackets for other people.

I like the new logo...
and this sub looks awesome but... not to be rude or anything, is there really a market for monster 8's? or is it just cheaper/easier to design a prototype/manufacture a bunch of test pieces in a smaller size and then you will use the same design style to build the larger models?
The way it looks the SA-8 was a huge hit and with other 8's coming out I'm sure it says something for how well ridiculous 8's sell.

That trap is a bit high for the ET. What are your short times? What tires were on the rear and what do you have for rear suspension? One of my employees has a Limited T that's pretty damn nice.

Mazdaspeed 3's are really coming down in price, they handle great and are pretty quick from the factory, my buddy has one, made 260hp to the tire with a K&N air intake.

Higher voltage pre outs means a cleaner and stronger signal which means that your amplifiers input voltage gain will be set lower, which in turn means that your amplifier wont have to work as hard to produce the same sound. kind of means something to me....
Yeah, but 5v preouts are more or less a marketing gimmick.

This sub is relevant to my interests.

I do like the prices and features on those Pioneers. Only problem is I'd kind of like to have a remote. haha, I've become used to being lazy.

One thing that stopped me from getting a double din was that I don't have an alarm and most double units don't have a detachable face, something to keep in mind
I was looking into a jvc kw-xr810 because it had a lot of cool features at a reasonable price. Only downside was you needed to take up one of the two USB ports for the Bluetooth dongle(included with the stereo) but hey I'm all about my iPod for my music so I really only needed one port free anyways.
It crossed my mind, but I'm not too worried, it's not a daily driver, I'll be using it to tow cars for work and to tow my car to the track. It's a 1 ton extended van so it's pretty high up for someone to just look right in and not exactly first on a thief's list to check out.
I'll look into the JVC, the USB port being taken up doesn't bother me, I don't have an iPod.

This will be my next double din Alpine iXA-W407. Alpine
No DVD though Idevice/ Usb media.
Maybe I'm old fashioned but I own a lot of CD's. I don't think that would be the right one for me.
Thanks though, any other suggestions?

I recently purchased a new tow vehicle and I'd like to put some variation of sound in it. It has a double din dash so I figure I'd go with a double din head unit. I'm really not sure exactly what options I want besides 3 sets 4v preouts, USB and most likely blue tooth, I'd like to spend under $300 if possible but I'm not completely against spending more.
Pretty vague I know, just looking for people's experience and what not.

I don't think I've logged into Termpro for 10 years. Time to see if my account still works.

I have one of these that's been sitting around for a really long time. I want to build a box for it but I don't remember how big of a box I need and what I should tune it at. I can't find any info on these much less anything about the company. Anybody have any idea?

Good thing Obama forced congress to repeal the patriot act.... Oh wait.

That's kind of bullshit that the cops would bait someone like that but it happens. I'm going to be paranoid now if it looks like someone wants to race me. Luckily for me I just sold my car.

Looks good. I used to have a 89 Coupe, same color, with a 302. I love that color on a coupe, don't see it too often. I'm going to be watching this.

I'm still pretty lazy and don't want to drive a few hours.
its not that bad to drive a few hours to meet new people and have fun. i mean hell, i drove to madison a few weeks ago (5 hours) and it was a blast! where are you located? Im sure there are some shows fairly close to you this year.
I live like 10 minutes from you. I work in Inver Grove Heights.
wanna get metered? i have a TL...
I would be interested to see what it's doing with the current box, that way I'll know if the new box will have made a difference. I work at one of those shitty car lots on Concord.

2004 Chevy Silverado Crew Cab Budget Build
in Build Logs
Posted
Hello, I haven't logged into this site in probably 6 years. Hello again.
At any rate I recently acquired a new to me vehicle, a 2004.5 Chevy Silverado 2500HD Duramax. I haven't had any interest in car audio for a long time but I bought this truck and it has some odd Kenwood head unit and factory speakers which sound really bad, even by factory speaker standards. I planned on just getting a pair of speakers for the doors and calling it a day, while shopping I got the idea to do some other stuff with things I found in my garage. It won't be anything fancy but it will do the trick hopefully. I also don't want to spend very much money.
The truck came with a Kenwood CD player with a USB port so that will probably be good enough for me. I just got some Rockford 6.75" coaxials for the doors, a JBL A5001, everything else will be sourced from my garage. I have 2 Sundown e8v2's that I got off the preorder when they were just coming out, I originally bought them for my truck at the time, which is about 4 trucks ago. One is still in the box, the other one I opened the box to look at it and now it's dusty and looks like garabage. I'm no carpenter and I think making a box to fit under the rear seat will be way beyond my skill set so I'm going to use a crusty old prefab under the seat sealed enclosure that I got somewhere along the way and it's been sitting in my garage as well. It won't be cool, have particularly good sound quality or get all that loud but it should be much better than I've had in 6-7 years so I'm pretty excited about it. I'm hoping to get the door speakers in tomorrow and maybe get the rest done this weekend. I'll post pics for everyone to laugh at as I go.
