An-i-no

*first post from his evo* Damn thing is sliiiiiick.

This. CCA has to be oversized to be able to carry the same amount of current as Copper. That's just physics. Copper is a better conductor. Sure CCA wire can do the same job as OFC but there's a reason that OFC is more common than CCA. It's a better conductor period. If CCA was thought to be a true substitute for OFC then it would be just that, but instead it's a lesser product. It costs less, it's less effective. You may not HEAR the difference but does that mean it's there? I may not hear the difference between 140amps through 4 gauge and 180 amps through 0 gauge but does that mean the 0 gauge isn't better wire? Not EVERYTHING boils down to "you won't hear a difference so it doesn't matter."

Lol.

I have no part of this argument but wtf Redneck? When did it become a good idea to argue with the guy about lawsuits? He came to inform people that the info that was being passed around was potentially dangerous to the vehicle. Now...how did that incite an argumentative response on your part?

Say I have an amp that has 2 power and ground inputs. Say if I just use one with twice the size power wire is that ok? Or is there some important reason that they are split up to begin with? Fast advice is appreciated.

0 Gauge stepped down into the dual 4 gauge inputs. Amp has no fuses.

Those are mad slick...

I lol'd sorry.

Apply for a job somewhere and greet the interviewer with "What up my nigger". Lol let's please not start this argument. That logic is soooooo slanted. Of course you wouldn't say it in that situation. The situation is that he thinks a black guy stole his car. Now lets go over some facts. He's young. He's put lots of time/effort and money into this car. He loves it. It's fuckin gone now. Completely gone. Once again, he thinks a black guy stole it. Who's surprised that the N-word slipped out? Not me. No one should be. He even apologized right after he said it? What else can you ask for? He screwed up and admitted it, let's move on. EDIT: And I'm NOT saying it's cool that he said it. Just to clarify.

Hey Impious...you wouldn't happen to know how the hell I'm supposed to fuse it would you?

Ah shit. Gotta order a distro then thanks guys. EDIT and smaller wire lol

No not speaker terminals. Power and Ground. Like....the Warhorse has 3. If I were to only use one power and ground each but with 3/0 wire (reduced at the terminal) would it function the same way? Or do the terminals themselves have some kind of current limit? Of course I don't have a Warhorse and wouldn't do that to a Warhorse but just for comparison's sake.

So tell us what happen? Your mom saw a black guy and did nothing about it? And are you sure he was black? You said yourself that your car was blacked out right? So the only way she could tell what race he was is if she saw him breaking in, if thats the case, why didn't she do anything to stop it? If he was covering his face or something, then that again begs the question, how do YOU know he was black? If somebody stole your car and your mom said she saw a black guy...then chances are that you're gonna side with your mom? I mean yeah, you can't believe everything you hear but we're talking about his mom.

Np.

Lol on a budget? Audiopipe!

What he said. VM is the shizz.

Has anybody used/seen/heard anything from the new Audiopipe line? AQ has kinda alienated me recently and I'm looking to go in a different direction.

double post my bad.

Lol I've been unlucky lately so a warranty is a MUST.

Its a little different than an engine. If you build up your electrical the way you should it shouldn't drop to unsafe levels and it should stay that way. If you can't afford to power an amp correctly then don't buy that amp, buy a less powerful amp or run less power until you have the electrical to support it. If you have to constantly monitor your voltage you have a problem. Not to mention I find a bright blue meter aesthetically displeasing...but that's irrelevant. Competition use is a different story. I assume that's what you meant by professional. I understand what your saying but hey, your oil pressure SHOULDN'T drop in your car but you still have a gauge. Your temperature SHOULDN'T ever go over the optimal range but you still have a gauge. It's just like anything else it's good to have it to keep an eye on it. If you read my earlier post I stated that it's not there for him to stare at and walk the fine line. The setup he is going to put in should support what he's looking at running with no problems but what if his alt fails? What if a batt shorts? I mean I honestly can't believe that you guys would argue the point of having something like a meter. And your reference to a motor? No it's not so different. It's a tool to monitor what's going on just like any other gauge you have in your car. That wasn't really the point I was making. I'm saying you shouldn't push your equipment to the point where monitoring your voltage is necessary. If you want it to monitor equipment failure far be it from me to stop you. Whatever makes you feel comfortable Eh...you guys are making it too crucial. The volt meter is pretty necessary when doing any kind of electrical upgrades. Not only for LOW voltage but voltage spikes and other oddities. And plus, how the heck would you know how much is too much without the volt meter? Sure his lights might dim but if he's at 13.5+ all the time then he doesn't need to back off the gain/volume. Once again, without a volt meter he doesn't know that. Sure if you never spend more than you make you'll always have money right? But does that mean you should never look at your bank statement?....like seriously? We're talking about a nice 20 investment. Could be much cheaper.

There are MULTIPLE people who have seen/sat in/ know of this truck. Not every one cares about videoing TL numbers. Besides with the equipment you have, you should be mid 50's.... He wants to see a video...? That was the whole point of the thread. He doesn't want to just take people's word for it...

Dopeness lol. How could anyone not think this is cool as hell? EDIT: Man it's not like YOU stole it, OR like the bum made a killing off of it anyway

Does EVERYONE have to be so...sensitive? I'm not trying to start any extra shit but it seems like everybody wants the other guy to be wrong...and I mean damn...for what? Kryptonite's system can do things most people can't. I'm sure RamRod's system is loud as balls too. Why can't they just coexist peacefully? He asked for something legit. Vids (or evidence, don't remember as I'm posting) of 148's at sub 25hz. I think he has a fair ground to do so as several people said his idea's were dumb, or that they could build something twice as loud with less equipment or that some guy was doing 60's with xx xx-inch subs so all he asked was to see it. Yeah he called RamRod out but does that mean get so defensive? If he's wrong then shit, he's wrong so show him he's wrong. Asking for proof to prove his proof that disproves your non-existent proof (that might exist...) won't actually solve anything...

Physics Can't 1500 watts at 1 ohm just be 1500 watts at 1 ohm! How fun it is to dream.... In all honesty, this is how it is, there is no circumventing, there is no good reason for worrying about it unless you are competing seriously. If so then you already know all about impedance rise and enclosure volumes, their correlation, tuning for peak frequency, burp boxes, driver & port positioning, cabin gain, and how to put it all together... And kaboom, DBzzzzz...lol. But to the op though, don't stress and try to understand this all at once. Once you have stuff in your hands to play with and test things will be much much easier than reading through here. Don't base your purchases on things like Impedance rise or Inductance. Just pick whatever you want and buy it. Nobody else needs to be happy.
