Sundown SAZ-3000D for MEGA-UBER headroom. ...plus the power's there if you ever get a BTL...

Set it the same way you would set your gains. Turn the HU just under clipping, and turn the amp to a low setting, and turn the LOC gains up until you hit clipping, then back it off just a bit. Then set the gains on the amp. Thats what the manual for my LOC said, if I recall correctly.

Could be, but take into consideration that JBL had parts available for some pretty ancient speakers up until recently. And I can still get many parts for my thirty year old Toyota truck, even the hubcaps, straight from the dealer. I guess what I'm trying to say is that it confuses/annoys me how some companies have great parts support, and others, really lousy support for the customer down the road. Also, no need to be using such hateful words. Why can't we all be friends?! Okay, well, maybe not that kinda friends. o.oD I have a dream, that one day, asians, and lovers of teh boobies can get along on forums, even if they have differing view points! -SteveSan

Man, that sucks. I hope you can get it all sorted out.

Wow. Thats great customer service, and standing behind your product.

Make sure your cables are tight, and do the big 3 while you're at it. You may not even need a new battery. If you get a new battery, and don't do the big 3, chances are you'll run into electrical problems again. That fancy new battery means nothing if your alternator can't charge it. So... Big 3, Battery, Alternator, in that order. Edit: And yes, dipping voltage can blow fuses.

Whats your electrical like? What gauge cables are you running from your battery, and what kind of battery is it? Have you done the BIG 3?

LOL Now thats awesome bass.

Sony used to make pretty good stuff before, but I think their quality is slipping. We have two ancient Sony TVs, one must be over 20 years old, the other about 20 years old, and they're going strong. We had another Sony Wega XBRWTFBBQ TV, and that crapped out in three-four years. It was a known problematic series of TV, iirc. Not to mention hardly any of the stuff is Made In Japan anymore.

Why not just find a way to keep that cover up if you're worried about overheating?

Somehow, I'm thinking that that would cost a little more in electricity. I'm thinking I'll set the fixtures on rubber blocks or something to dampen them, or something. I can't be blowing lights every time I feel the need to rock the block. :X

Yep. Turn the volume down a little bit. Haha, what would be the fun in that?!

Spill it, I gotta hear this. And theabunai, whats the story with SSD?

Nothing like headroom.

So what's involved in refurbing an amp? I wouldn't mind snatching up that 1500D, but I don't want to lay down four bills, only to be stuck with a large paperweight just out of the 90 day warranty. Jacob, hows the reliability rate with the refurbs?

Damn, that means I've got about eight ballasts to replace. >.< Any way to prevent this from happening again?

Okay, I feel good about this. I'm gonna try and grab that 1500D refurb. Thanks guys.

Funny thing is, the lights in room with the sub are fine.

They're on a different circuit, and one of the fixtures on the switch works. (Theres six fixtures on one switch)

ficaraudio.com says 21mm of Xmax.

wtf?

If it still plays, I think it should be fine.

What numbers are you hitting with windows up, vs down? I need some numbers for this thing I'm doing. Thanks!

Oh. I should've realized that. x_X I feel silly now.
