DL/Buy a good quality version of it. You might have to turn up your bass a little bit, or since the song is pretty light, your overall volume. BEWARE: I believe it's around 4:48, the song does a killer low note, then all the sudden the bass amplifies after it so get ready to turn it down or your amp is going to clip severely.

I went to a little car showoff / competition yesterday. This was in no way an actual 'organized' competition. Classes were setup as single subwoofer / double subwoofers / Three + subwoofers. After going through all the contestants, they handed out the trophies and prizes. First up was single subwoofer, my class! They call third place, at a 136.9db (I think i got this shit in the bag for 2nd place and my buddy would get 1st place). Then, they call 2nd place.. NOT me 142.1db. Finally they call my buddy for first place at 148.7db. So. I go up to the sheet and check my name.. I got 144.7db! They skipped my name i guess.. Anyways i told the instructor of the competit…

Does anybody know about when they will become available like next month or next year and around how much they will cost? I either want to get a saz1500v2 used for 287 before the sales ends or the OA. I really want the OA but I don't want to pay more then 300 for it when I can get the saz cheaper now.

Lotsa stuff i got recently, an Eclipse 8053. The marantz SR8400 going to my HT system. It wouldn't fit my old rack so i had to put it on my TV stand. RE XXX 6.5 and they accidentally shipped me a re 6.5 so i took pix for comparison. Lastly, a Concept 1200D i got real cheap.

I have an XCON 15D2 and a DC Power 180 amp alternator on its way to my house .....and Argent Audio is building me a 4.0 cubic enclosure with a tuned 32hz flared port Hmmmmm...... Sundown SAZ-2500D or Stetsom V 2K5E 1 ohm? 2500 watts should give me a little bit of headroom After I get the low end taken care of I will focus on the mids/highs. Build log coming soon. Oh yeah....going in a Hyundai Elantra

so i just installed my new sundown 100.4 amp and i have a terrible distortion problem even at a barely audible level. ive double checked all the wiring for proper polarity and checked that i have a good ground connection too. ive also tried speakers which i know are good as well as inputs that i know are good. the only inconsistency ive found is the the remote from my deck puts out 11.3v and the book that came with my amp is asking for 13.8v would this cause the distortion or is there something wrong with the amplifier. thanks for the input

Nothing more than minor cuts, scrapes, and pinches here - mainly from removing panels. Sliced my finger somewhat with a utility knife once, wasn't fun. Anyone else have any other interesting injuries sustained during installation? - Steve

(1) Alpine SWR1242D (1) MB Quart DSC1000.1 Sub is 4ohms with two voice coils. The amp also has + + - - option. So, should I wire each voice coil separately and voice both sets of + - or wire the vc's together and just use one? Thanks for any advice, I have no idea lol.

So i was just rear ended 2 hours ago at a red light. I have a 2004 chevy blazer and was the first in my lane at a red light. the guy next to me jumped and the girl behind me floored it in her dodge stratus. When it happened, my door speakers popped and do not work anymore. the fuses are all good, my amp still works as do my subs. So, i'm thinking about buying some raw drivers from Parts express and trying myself at an active 2 way since i have a Pioneer DEH-P880PRS. Anyone have any good suggestions for under $200 total? I've been looking at Vifa tweeters and Dayton mids because they are so cheap and yet model really well in a few programs i have access to. Thanks for any …

Ive gotten my box completed and my sub installed in my car for about a week now, its going to be a nice weekend out here in Michigan and would like to finish my box. What do I use to cover up all my seams/screws so I can paint over it. Also I want to have a nice black or charcoal look to the box but have it be textured like steve meades, any ideas what to use for it.

i gotta guy wanting me to a build for him in his 73' caprice convertible and i need some suggestions! he wants to go big but he doesn't like ported boxes for some odd reason. now he's seen my other builds and he expects it to be as loud as those. i might be able to convince him to go ported but it really has to slam. here's the catch, it all has to be in the trunk! but the good news is he has an open wallet. im thinkin 8-12" sa's and about 12000 watts rms. any suggestions out there?

i dont know if its my subs suck, the amp, or the box i built.... i have a single 12" Kicker CVR, in a box with insulation, and a few small drill holes to let a lil air out, and a 600w rms infinity amp. the dry notes im talking about... like in bass, i love you,by.... basstronics?? i forgot who it is, but that really really low note. i cant hear it at all. when i had 2 12" in my back seat, i could see the subs moving like crazy, but not much sound or feeling in the car. but now its in my trunk with 1 12", which im suprised sounds the same, if not better than how it was. i havent looked to see if it flexed like crazy, but i know i cant hear it in the car. theres also... i p…

which one do you think would be better? the hc 2400 or the d3100 i would think the power master since there a little cheaper and rated to put out more amps but i just want to get some other peoples opinion.

With SSaudio going down and me working a ton lately i havent been able to get online, but I am back and kicking again. Heres a little update. I have some major plans coming up in the near future. Tomorrow i will be buying a 1990 Honda CRX, for Street A. The CRX is to replace my 92 Honda Civic, pictures can be found at www.team-bio.com. I realized that my Civic isnt going to get any louder than it is. Currently it is at 143.1, but might have changed as i did something yesterday and havent played with it. Anyways, Im going to be trying to get into the 48s in Street A with my crx.What I will be running in the car for the system is basically going to be all my stuff outta my …

It was a lot of fun. I forgot my camera at home so no pics. Kinda sad actually... But anyway I ran for the first time I did a 141.8, I didn't think that it was to bad, with no electrical upgrades and the sub not being broke in yet. I am already considering another sub and walling my Jimmy off behind the second row. Of course that would involve another amp, a few batteries, and a alternator. But overall other than being burnt as hell the show was a lot of fun, and i can't wait for next year. BTW mark i handed out some flyers, but the were like wtf is ssa. HAHAHAHA

so my dads cars alt went out, he bought a new one but it doesnt seem to fit it and now we have a spare brand new alt laying around and he said could have it. its only a 105 amp alt so i dont really want to replace it with my 120 amp alt but maybe someone rig it in with my stock one, would it like having a 225 amp alt? or would it not be worth my time to rig something to install it into my blazer

hi, i was just wandering if anyone had any suggestions on what i could do? i used to think i was into sq but over time i think i just like loud. i've had several systems over the years (all installed by me) and i have honestly never been satisfied with any. mids and highs i dont really care about for now, i just want bass so loud i can't stand it. i've seen vids on hair tricks and i think maybe that's what i need. i don't have an spl meter to know what i'm hitting now. mine tops at 130db, i hit that at about half volume. currently i'm running: 2001 hyundai accent factory tape deck with ipod iraggi dominator 200a 0ga everywhere kinetic 1400 memphis mojo 4kw 2- re sx 18d4's…

I need 15/0 AWG size who makes it? ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... Haha, did i make you think i was retarded for a minute or just straight crazy?, hehe No but seriously, does anyone know where i can get 2/0 or maybe even 3/0 wire? Also, I would need to know anyone who makes battery terminals for these sizes and or the following- fused distribution capability non fused distro capability 2/0 to 1/0 reducers or 3/0 to 1/0 reducers. Reasoning- Lanzar's engineers should be smacked in the face for being retarded. They released a 6000D, 6,000w amp with ONLY 1 set of power and ground terminals! Hifonics Goliath is only a 5kw amp and it has 2 sets! Anyways,…
