I didn't get any good pics from the show because it was cold and I was to busy trying to stay warm. Corey Mitchell 1st place in Drive-by 1 with a 120.5 30 second average 6 feet outside of the car. He is running one Sundown 1500D and one 12" PBX XS sub. Brent Howard 1st place in Amateur Street 3 with a 147.6 He is running one Sundown 3000D and two Audioque HDC3 15" subs.

My electrical will be: Stock 140a alternator, Big 3 done Powermaster D3100 battery for the front Powermaster D680 for the back Is there any reason that i wouldnt be able to run the 1500 at .5 ohm daily?

    This is a video that my good friend the RattRodder did of the old setup in the KIA. No, the subs are not out of phase. One of my rca cables male end was broken and was working intermittently. Enjoy. http://youtu.be/Z3Oyw1g9XHI

    NeoPro-8 models are now SOLD OUT. Also -- all NeoPro speakers will face a small price increase due to the Neo cost increases. The next run of NeoPro-8s will include 4 ohm models as well. We will have more in stock in June... the demand for these really snuck up on us exponentially rather than just a gradual increase so supply was literally pulled right out from under us! We should have more steady data on the demand in the future on these. New / Old Pricing : NeoPro-6.5 : $99 / NA NeoPro-8 : $105 / $99 NeoPro-10 : $129 / $115 The 10" has a much bigger piece of Neo in it so was more affected. If Neo goes back down in the future we'll adjust accordingly -- we may also offer…

    Hey guys i had a fast question to ask! I have a new h/u a kenwood KVT-817DVD single-din flip out monitor and it has a processor which it uses inconjuction with the deck. It has a sub pre-out but ONLY 1 and not 2 RCA out puts for the sub. So i was wondering if i need to use 2 sets of RCA's to plug into the amp or can i get away with 1 rca and just turn the gain up? amps: SAZ2000 and SAE1200 sorry if i am unclear on what i am asking. ALSO how do you calculate impedance rise? or do you just hook your DMM meter up to the sub after running the sub for a bit? also i have heard of a device called a AM-500 Accumatches and i was wondering if they are any good? or worth the in…

    I've mainly been updating on Facebook but we have been heavily involved in moving our location about 20 minutes down the road to Claremont, NC to a much larger facility for most of July. We now have functional shipping, testing, and build room areas at the new location plus a few office guys have transferred over as well. It has been a bit of a long process but it's coming along nicely. I have not yet moved my office or Debbie and the accounting / invoicing systems so it's been a bit inefficient as the data has to be transferred to the new location to ship (aside from Yard Sale) -- but the goal is to move all this by Monday and have everyone working in the same location…
