  1. Take it easy guys ! Bigjon : I love the animated "the end" you posted ! Who is this 323guy ? He seems to be new around here but acts like he's....I stop it !

    Pretty sure it's not monetary. There have been some very public and very very badly handled deals on here made public with DC. They showed a negative side time and time again, with a new excuse. They tried to delete things and cover it up and it left a bad taste in many members' mouths. They left the forum because the mod staff did not allow them to cover shit up. They may have the best product, but to some, the way they have done some business has cost them some business.
  3. All of your uneducated posts explain why you still live with your mom. Do everyone a favor and just leave. You obviously can not contribute anything worthwhile to this forum.
  4. Ignorance is bliss on SMD it in the air over there especially lately. Peace be with you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ? I only go on there for lol's And to look at the tire and wheel section. SSA for life.
  5. your a jerk off son.. and every one of your post PROVES this.go back to SMD you chump.your worthless post are a waste of very ones time.
  6. Yes good Amp choice! I think this is the diagram you need.
  7. Interesting news. I poured a ton of time and energy into helping him grow Mach5, we made nothing on the product and I mean ZERO. He was a good guy, but as soon as he thought it was a good idea to team up with Sound Digital (who have a hard on for Stetsom), then tells me Mach5 is getting out of the industry and to take down the section. Only to see a couple months later, there is a section up on CrapCo..... now he is done with it? After Stereo Integrity and Mach5 pulled that, I am no longer helping another brand because there is ZERO loyalty or gratitude in this stupid bullshit dance. Sorry to hear that you guys got the short end of the stick there. Unfortunately people have become increasingly ungrateful for people giving them some help or a fair shot. I know I have been guilty of that before myself. J It's ok. Mark warned me. It was my morals and good nature that has continued to get in the way of our business growth.
  8. You live in southern California, so you are in Mexico. Thanks for your help man! ur welcome You should probably go remove your 15 processors and equalizers instead of spamming the forum. Its a waste of everyone elses time.
  9. more pics of what lol ? Just random shit, he don't give a fuck. Take a close-up of every capacitor on that amp.
  10. Big thanks to Shizzon for shipping out my meter promptly and what a great price for a rare and extremely helpful tool. Specs, 02 Camry (sunroof) Mechman 220a, 2 dekas in the rear, XS D2400 under the hood AQ... Wait, Soundcubed 3500.1 @ .7 2 BTL N2 18s, pink dustcaps which help a little on the meter. ~13 cubes at 36-37hz Not exactly completely sealed off, I used high density foam to keep the resell value of my car. Box has awful flex which I'll be fixing in a week with some steel bracing. Plenty of testing to come so I'll keep updating this thread. So far I just ran a sweep legal style and just used the same frequency outlaw. Outlaw Sealed Another outlaw score Outlaw 30 second average on music
  11. well just 1 amp for all 4 subs ????? im not trying to be a dick here but thats like trying to fit 50 people in a mini van atleast you need 1 amp per sub are you fucking kidding me? this is your advice for anyone who runs 4 subs? no its fine were used to you knowing NOTHING about ANYTHING.... but even so... what if they are Z cons... your opinion is that you should run 4 amps to 4 subs? do you know ANYTHING about car audio? or do you just like to type on a public forum where NO ONE likes you ? take a second to compose your thoughts... i know its really really hard for you to retort with anything other then " your fat " or " your momma" or gay jokes.. and even talking about penis ........... ok now you can SPEAK OUT OF YOUR ASS.
  12. Using the ZED amp? Yes Sir. 3&4 2.5 ish would be a great start on that power.
  13. most would say there no advantage over 0/1 i my self would do it anyway.. maybe just 1 run but yeah... as far as lugs go.. when your shopping you have to keep in mind, that most 4/0 connections are going to be for home use.. the bigger stranted wire, and in my experiance AC 4/0 or 2/0 is smaller then auto 4/0 or 2/0 so be carefull of what you order. i ordered 2/0 lugs on ebay by the peice.. but they were AC and they are smaller then normal but i was useing them for 2 runs of 1/0 so it was fine.
  14. Also another thing you may want to think about is if you can find heat-proof tubing (loom, I think it's called?) that'll fit the wire...You don't really want the jacket of the wire to be it's only defense. Aside from that I have all the same questions you do. And wouldn't you need a huge ass fuse (and fuse holder like you said) for that one run of wire?
  15. lol was that your best shot at me? lol calling me fat ... lol you must be joking little boy. let see.. first off.. i call my self bigjon. ... second off.. i have been fat all my life, and most time the BEST fat jokes were told BY ME!... i have heard them all.. so i hope you dont think some how in your streange little world that calling ,me a fat fuck some how cuts me ... you must have it bad ............ and lastly... im more then sure your just mad because this fat fuck is the boyfriend of the girl you tried to PM and chat it up with...... you have another thing coming if you think your gonna have a chance at my chick... lol please son. next time you try to step to me or my chick you may wanna try a little harder. be a little smarter.
  16. Picked up my new toy today!

I know I have been guilty of that before myself. J It's ok. Mark warned me. It was my morals and good nature that has continued to get in the way of our business growth. Compromise your morals for money and see if you can look your kid in the eye or yourself in the mirror. At the end of the day, yes it is a business and must be ran as such, but you cannot violate your own ethics for profit. J I don't compromise, that is why I was saying it has held us back in growth, but I can fine tune and refocus them on fewer more select things and be less forgiving and helpful to others.
  18. He is currently driving me crazy as well. Him as An-i-no's little twerp fight I just increased Chris's warning level for bumping old threads without adding any useful information to them. I have no problems with bumping old threads if you add to the subject, but his nonsensical bumps piss me off.
  19. Going to give the dragon a bath today!
  20. more pics of what lol ? Just random shit, he don't give a fuck. Take a close-up of every capacitor on that amp. LMAO! Gett'r done!
  21. He is currently driving me crazy as well. Him as An-i-no's little twerp fight
  22. Damn it. *is hella jealous*
  23. first time i see someone get MAD for someone else lol and 16k i think he said that cause of you and why you your the one with multi post lol just saying What? Read that out loud...And don't add in the missing punctuation. And...all I was saying was that three or four people had posted the exact same information so it wasn't helping any. I wasn't mad about anything. Lol @ you bro. That's all I have to say. You type like an idiot but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you're actually imagining complete and coherent sentences.
  24. Lower impedance does not mean less efficiency.
  25. it really depends if you get a 4, 2, or 1 ohm stable amp... then you wanna match the subs to the amp. lets say u get a 1 ohm stable amp (which most d class amps are 1 ohm stable) you can get 2, dual 1 ohm subs to get 1 ohm for the amp. this will help http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp
  26. post pics of this 4/0 cable you bought... and post some pics comparing it to other brands, i want to "see" the difference
  27. Hell yeah! DCON's moving some hair. More pics/vids please.
  28. yeah weird to compare two different sizes of wire. We already established that.
  29. No no, it was a joke. I am getting FI Q's. I had a 15in Q in 3.6cu tuned at 29hz and it murdered the lows. My truck peaked at 30hz with that setup. I liked it so much I ordered 2 18's. LOL
  30. The one's I owned were only the MA series, an MA100XE and a pair of MA150XE's. They did fine on output, just weren't the least bit impressive on the quality of sound. Between a little mechanical noise and a lackluster response they just didn't impress me. As for the 3-3.5cuft per sub, well, it's in the range for the drivers as given by the manufacturers. The port area and tuning will have an affect as well as the vehicle environment. Believe me, I understand that it's frustrating that no one is giving real straight answers. You have to understand that absolutely NO ONE can predict exactly what the results are going to be from each product and tell you with certainty which one will suit you better. The recommendations given so far are from those peoples personal experiences and have to be weighed as such. I believe that either choice will give good results as both are proven performing drivers.
  31. I need an approximately 10" tube that is nearly ready for paint....or a better idea. I'd like to upgrade my boat tower speakers to something with more balls, but that requires an enclosure. Coating a sonotube in fiberglass to make it weather proof and then sanding it smooth enough to paint sounds to me like a major failure. Depending on the diameter I am going to stuff an 8" or 10" Faital Pro mid in it, unless I find something else weather treated and better. The four little bullets currently house JL 6.5's which don't have enough balls. This would allow me an "excuse" to put the Pio 880 in the boat
  32. Where's my breakfast treat?
  33. lol.. Props to Jon for getting his lady into this crazy world of car audio.. Props to you for liking it...
  34. Ey guys, relax , didn't write anything offensive @Ts , please just take it as a compliment , i have a great reason for telling you to watch your self. shes my girlfriend.... im not an over bearing goober trying to cause problems.. i expect it to a point from strangers.. but i just simply asked you to watch it.... thats all. now back on point.. she needs a few things, but her car is not for comps it her everyday commuter car that just so happends to be louder with less power then 90% of the locals ... belive me if i wanted it to be loud. it would be. to burp better number she needs a deck with a pause on it.. and a little more power. only time will till

    This is part of the reason it is taking so long on the new programing for the VCM. Trying to get a few new things to work, but getting those to work with all models takes a lot of engineer work.
  41. I listen to a ton of music without bass, so I listen to it without bass. Novel idea
