  1. I had to schedule today, and I changed my choices around, and decided, hey! I'll take a woodshop class and learn how to build boxes and stuff. But when I asked my counselor, he said we didn't have a class like that. I just said, is there any class that deals with wood in general? He said no. My school is pretty damn nice (cept for a majority of the people that go there) and it used to be one of the top where I live. I can't believe their is no wood working class at all lol..

    so yeah just wanted to say that

    how many of you guys have wood classes in school?


  2. I've done my homework, I'm just asking for opinions bro...

    and the Crunch isn't overrated at all, I was just seeing if the power acoustik was overrated, and I can tell it is by the 180 amp fuse rating.

    Sundowns aren't over priced, they are just expensive. You get what you pay for really, and sundown has GREAT customer service and you just can't get that with many companies these days


  3. What are you guys' thoughts on this? It is sort of temporary give or take on how much I like it, I don't like the looks too much but it seems like its fine. I like having the noticable volume and channel changing button also. The USB I have read that you can plug your iPod through the USB and it should work (if it doesn't I have a flash drive or can get a bigger one for ~10$) and it plays cds. I have an iPod touch and I haven't been able to use it because the wireless ones dont work for chit (and differ in each car), I have no tape deck, and all I can play are cd's.

    This unit also has 6v pre-outs with front rear and subwoofer RCA inputs. (I can use them for my subs) I also will be able to have some extra space underneath it for an EQ or some stuff like that later on depending if I keep it.

    Here is the link, I'm not sure if theres many better prices but it comes with all the dash mounting kits so I know if worse comes to worse I can get it from SE.

  4. Yeah I was hoping it had remote gain. The clipping is a nice feature too. If it isn't remote gain, I think I'll get that remote then. Thanks! I'll still be reading for more info guys

    that NV22 thing won't work with me, I only have a stock headunit and a LOC.

    How would It work if I had upgraded speakers and headunit, and both my RCA's were taken up?


  5. It is going to be an Audioque 2200d. Unless I can find a better amp for that price lol. I chose it over the Crunch GP 3000dpro.

    Whats the diff between the two? Wouldn't remote gain be pretty dangerous becuase you can turn it up past clipping?

    no the bass boost is the bad one buddy....

    the remote gain allows you to go down from your set gain on the amp... so at the highest level on the remote is your is where your gain is set on your amp.

    it only alows you to turn the gain down... not up past your setting...

    a very useful tool.

    Do you know which one AQ has?


  6. Can using a bass knob cause damage? If so, to what extent. Should I go ahead & set my gains to what my bass knob would normally be? And finally, what exactly does the bass knob effect? Does it stay within the preset gains?

    I like being able to turn it down with just that little knob, or turn it up when I want to blare it. I was thinking of setting it all the way up, then the gain to where it gets the right AC Voltage, would it be fine?


  7. lol i've never understood why peopel want others to hear their systems out side of the car.....

    Maybe try a BTL, thats what I'm going with but theres plenty of other GREAT choices, such as the SSA Icons and sundown Night Shades, but if you wait a little longer they're both coming out with some monster subs


  8. Alright well, this is my second real system. My first one was a package deal with sony xplods!!!!! hah anyways, they sounded good for the price but after a LONG time of thinking, and I'm talking very long, I decided on the BTL. I have most of the stuff for the install, but this will be a pretty long one due to school, and my resources. I have an 02 explorer xlt. Here is a pic of it:

    I already have the remote wire, and the RCA's installed on the stock head unit (upgrading that later when I get more $$), and a 200 amp alternator.

    Heres what has to go in:

    (third battery, can't decide if I want to put all 3, just the other two, or just this one?)

    I'll try to keep it updated


  9. The $$$$ situation..... I have to start from no system/wiring/radio NOTHING.

    And the 2.5's are great for the price.

    Ah, I thought they were close to the price lol. Yeah it makes sense now.

    I wanna hear these things wham because they look very good.
