Jay-cee you both contradicted yourself.
Most amplifiers cannot be bridged to 2 ohms, they will go into protect, stick with 4 ohms. Think of it this way, what happens when you combine two different 2 ohm channels into one channel, you get one 4 ohms channel. Now apply that to a 2 ohm final load, a class A/B amplifier will not work with 1 ohm on each channel.
Mine Will
But that is a good rule of thumb. There is only a handful of multi a/b channel channel amps that will run 1 ohm stereo/2 ohm bridged.

AE makes great stuff, but The ib15s are more for home use if i remember correctly.

I love the face that you welded them on there! Have you done or are you planning on doing any deadening? I think sound deadening is the single best improvement you can do for your speakers. Just my $0.02

I don't know the parameters of the Atlas sub, but the Fi ib3 has a lot f/s and high Q so it would probably have better frequency response and probably better low end extension!
Nice IB by the way. I can't wait to have a home someday. IB will be in my HT.

Viper Alarm, that's it. If someone wants to go through the trouble of ripping my shit out while my alarm is blaring, be my guest.

now some funny shit i found online
anyone have any funny picture blog suggestions? 4chan just isn't doing it for me anymore
Remind me of Mitch Hedberg. I like an escalator because an escalator can never break, it can only become stairs. There would never be an escalator temporarily out of order sign, only an escalator temporarily stairs. Sorry for the convenience
Greatness RIP

I like a Clockwork Orange, but I read the book a while back so I knew what was going on.
liar. you didn't understand the book
I'd like to understand your logic behind this statement.

A few right off the top of my: The Phisher King, Meet Joe Black, Singles, Phycho Clown's From Outerspace...
I was going to say Killer Clowns from outter Space, Same thing I'm guessing, but it was funny due to how terrible it is. The Critters movies are bad too but funny to watch
Any 80s horror movie can fit in to this category.
Clockwork Orange.......It was like a really horrible acid trip that wouldn't ever end!!!
Half way through I realized I could turn it off and quickly did....terrible is an understatement.........

Another thing that helps is to take on new hobbies or activities to get your mind in other places. I had a friend who got off meth when he took up skateboarding again and has been clean for a couple years now. You just gotta get out of the situation that makes you want to use. My biggest problem quitting smoking was to not have smokes when I get into a car. I used to light up everytime I got in my car, whether I was going to work, school, or to drive to get more smokes. Stay Strong and good luck.

Addictions suck. I am recently off the cigarettes and it was hard and getting easier. One of my good friends is going through some problems with taking large amounts of perscription drugs and alcohol and is paying the price with the law now. It's better now than ever to get off, because the longer you wait, the harder it is to stop. Good Luck.

What movie is that from?
Really? You have to watch the whole thing. Classic and very good.

You either need to get a recone, from FI or RE. Also you can wire it to 2 ohms it will be getting less wattage but it means no clipping or overheating,
Not quite, but it will make the amps work a little easier at 2 ohms.
Clipping will still depend on settings, and overheating will still be due to overdriving an amp.
less current draw = less energy wasted on heat
As apposed to being at .5ohm (which it will indefinitely clip unless you have a fairly good electrical behind it) it will clip less at 2 ohms than it would at .5
No! An amp will only clip and distort when you don't have things set right. Clipping is overdriving the amplifier. That happens when you try to output a voltage signal higher than the rail voltages, therefore "clipping" the top and bottom of the signal. That all happens when your gains are set too high, or bass boost is too high or on for that matter.
Clipping still will depend on amp and HU settings.

these things are pretty snazzy lookin'
I bet these are MUCH better
I can sense a bandwagon, first dd, now rf and I think they are not the only car audio companies to have earbuds..
Correct, Kicker makes several.
Monster makes some too.

sean which specific calls are you talking about?
?
calls?
from the saints and vikes game
pass interference, complete catch and the 1st down spot all completely jacked in one possession in overtime
Agreed, the pass interference for sure!
Stop talking about it. Just bad memories

Looking good. Those M2000s push a good amount of juice. Let's see some progress now!
And nice choice on the HU, I have the same one, now I just want bluetooth and Sirius radio!

Sitting in class while the sun is shinning
You should be paying attention to class and not the shining sun right now
But it is the worst when you know its nice out and you're couped up.

If I wanted to do a system in a car like that I would just circumvent their audi and put in brand new wires from the batt and custom everything.
annoying though.
The new S class is smexy too.
Thats true, but holy good god you'd kill someone by the time it's done. Those cars are not fun to take anything apart on.
Could you just install post the amp? a 3sixty or something?
Yeah absolutely, after the factory amp then wire aftermarket power to the factory wiring unless it's anything like Blose. A lot of Bose systems use individual amps at each speaker which is retarded, but I would guess German engineered cars would make more sense than that.
One of the installers I work with was telling me that some of the new Mercedes cars are run almost entirely on a fiber optic loop. Remove on component and the car fails to work as a whole. The completely eliminate remote starters and aftermarket head units as of now.

It all depends. Can you find any of the specs on the PRs?
