    The subs are still going strong. I have been torturing them to say the least and they have been hanging in there. I have demoed them to plenty of customers and still love the expression on their faces when they exit the car.

    I missed the presale because I didn't know what I was gonna need (want). Now I'm thinking I want to go active and I need a 50 watt amp with a good crossover built in for tweeters (or maybe just bridge a 50x4 for the mid-bass). But I'm looking around and can't find the sax 50.4 anywhere... Anyone know who is carrying this model? It's not that there aren't other ways to get around this problem...a 125.2 for midbass...a 1000D or 1200D for subs....but I'm trying too look at all of my options (and put the least strain on my wallet / stock electrical).

    Our phone system is DOWN today completely while AT&T moves our number to the new facility. We've been forwarding it via the internet back to our Talkswitch box in Troutman up until now; but we are getting the whole deal officially moved today. If you must contact us please e-mail [email protected] and he can ask anyone else any questions you may have as well. I will post ASAP once the phone system move is completed. Our old number will STILL work via forwarding @ the phone company and we will also have a new "official" phone number.

    I was driving and i heard a pop and my front speakers went out I know it was the amp not the speakers. The rear speakers still are working which doesn't make sense. I have 2 amps a 1500 sundown running the subs and has no problems and the 100.4 sundown running 2 front speakers and 2 rear speakers. I checked the fuses on the side the three green ones and none of them were blown. Like I said the front speakers just went out and the rear ones still play. I also unplugged and plugged back in the input cables. Any info would be great. Probably a Hardcore Newb question but I don't care I will play dumb to get a better answer.

    Hey guys, I thought I'd start this topic before I istall everything to learn and get some info on how to do it. I bought 50.4 to run Image Dynamics CTX65CS in front and CTX6 in back. Then I grabbed 125.2 to run two Image Dynamics ID8''D4 v.3, both at 2ohm run on separate channel and Trevor at PTS is building ported box for them now. All of this will go to Pioneer 880PRS head unit. I know how to connect everything, I will pretty much get to the part where everytihing is connected and I start to wonder what the knobs on the amp do There's just so many of them any info would be nice....

    And I know it sounds like a woofer's blown at the end, but it's just the rear panel in the car vibrating. I kind of freaked out when I opened the trunk also, until I figured out what it was.

    I ended up getting this sub off Jake and I'm so glad I did. Here's a link to CA.com http://www.caraudio.com/forum/showthread.php?t=268616 I'm considering trying out DB drag or something in the spring. Not only is it loud but it sounds pretty good for an SPL sub (much better that a DMX 15 IMO) Anyway, I'll have some pics of my trunk up once I clean up the wiring.

    I have 2 1500d that I got from Dbr and 2 Fi Q15. My HU has a 3 preout which is for front, rear and sub. Each 1500d will power a single Q15 and I connect both amp with RCA. Let say RCA from HU connect to amp A and another RCA connect from BR out of amp A to input to amp B. Is this the right way to do it? Now when I scoped amp A it shows 40.4V with gains set at 3/4 of unclipped signal. Now when I scopped amp B with max gains I only got like 32V and it does not clip. So I decided to swap the RCA from HU to amp B. I got 41.5V with gains set at 3/4 of unclipped signal. But when I scopped amp A it has the same problem. Got 31V from it unclipped with max gains. Does anyone ha…

    I rewired my sub from 1ohm to 4ohm & was wondering do I need to reset my gains or redo the wiring config. from my amp to my sub ? My set-up is in my sig. line if that helps. It sounds the same but maybe not as punchy as before & it has a little less volume in the substage. I can hear my front stage alot better now also. Also I messed up & stripped out one of my screw mounting holes in my enclosure. Is there an easy fix or should I just go ahead & get a nut & bolt for it? Thanks, Chris.
