  1. So much fail... OP, we are not trying to affend you in any kind of way. We are truely trying to steer you in the right direction. Just by listening to some of the things you are suggesting, and mad methods, it sounds like ghetto riged every where. No to be so harsh, but bro, seriously. I highly advise not placing those tweeters back there. If money is the issue, than sell what you have currently, and buy something else. OR, just wait until you have the right amount of money to upgrade the right way. You have to understand, certain drivers are designed to only play certain frequencies. If you splic your tweeter with one of your door speakers, that means the same signal your door speaker is getting, is going to go to your tweet. THAT is what is wrong with youre idea. You don't want your tweeter to play those lower notes, AT ALL, especially at high volume. As it will only result in spending more money, and most of all, abusing equipment that will fail due to user error. No matter the cost of the driver(s). I will create a list of suggestions. Sell current and all speakers/tweets Then you could buy two sets of these www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?partnumber=269-097 Then you could power them with this http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?partnumber=269-188
  2. It'll give you as much less as more, but go ahead you've obviously already made up your mind.
  3. Earlier this year I decided to purchase a Zed Leviathan. Having owned many of Zed Audio built amplifiers in the past, purchasing a new one was a no brainer. When I received the package from UPS, it was wrapped in heavy cardboard paper. Upon removing the paper, I found a plain white box. Opening the box everything was arranged nice and neatly inside. The amplifier was contained in plastic and protected by foam padding. Along with the amplifier comes the product manual on CD (most economical way since the manual is 70+ pages long) and a small bag containing allen wrenches, mounting feet, and screws. Taking the amplifier out of the plastic, its design is simplistic yet stunning. A Plexiglas cover on top allows view into the components of the amplifier. Everything on the amplifier is arranged nicely. Power, ground, REM, and speaker terminals are all on one side. On the other are all the RCA’s, crossover, and filter settings. Installation was easy and connecting everything went smoothly. The first few times I listened to music with the Leviathan, it would turn off during “dead time” in music and then take a second to turn back on. I would miss the beginning of music or if there was pause in the track it would shut off. This was frustrating at first but reading through the manual, it comes from the factory with an auto turn on setting. This can be changed to manual by removing the cover and simply moving a jumper. All the instructions to complete this are located in the manual. The Leviathan exceeded my expectations in the listening area. I listen to all types of music and it does great with all of them. Being a class D amplifier, it does not have any of the high frequency noise or harshness like other class D amplifiers do. From the Zed Audio Site: Specifications Rated power is 190 watts x 6 into 4 ohm or 300w x 6 into 2 ohm. Bridged power is 380w x 3 into 8 ohm or 600w x 3 into 4 ohm. The 3 pairs of channels are independently bridgeable. Two, four or six input configuration. Channels 1+2 feature a 24dB per octave Linkwitz Riley High crossover. Channels 1+2 can run in FLAT mode (Pre-amplifiers completely bypassed), High Pass or Low Pass from channels 5+6. Channels 3+4 feature 24dB per octave Linkwitz Riley High and Low Pass crossovers. Channels 3+4 can run in FLAT mode (Pre-amplifiers completely bypassed), High Pass, Low Pass or Bandpass or Low Pass from channels 5+6. . Channels 5+6 feature feature 24dB per octave Linkwitz Riley High and Low Pass crossovers. Channels 5+6 can run in FLAT mode (Pre-amplifiers completely bypassed), High Pass, Low Pass or Bandpass. The High Pass crossover doubles as a subsonic filter as it is able to respond down to 10Hz. [*]LEVIATHAN Is well suited to running a multitude of different systems from simple 4 satellite/sub woofer type to tri and quad amped systems. Level controls accommodate input levels up to 8.6v RMS. Pre-amplifiers utilize a fully isolated power supply for zero ground loops. Pre-amplifiers drive the main amplifiers in a fully balanced mode. Class D amplifiers utilize high-speed high current low gate charge MOSFETs. Fully regulated power supply delivers power independent of battery voltage. There are a total of seventeen regulated power supplies. The power supply utilizes twelve 110 amp MOSFETs in a source follower configuration for maximum bandwidth. Low ESR 105°C capacitors are used in the power supply. Very high efficiency owing to the smart power supply. Tiffany RCA's with Teflon inserts are used for ultimate quality and reliability.

  5. thank ya. not too much to clean up with the wires but still want it to look better. and im going to get carpet tomorrow. even though i wont show it off much i still want it to be cleaner for my own personal benefit
  6. No clue, I've chosen to believe that it is from someone at the post office with a big heart. Whether it is true or not I don't know, but if it is it gives me a little hope for the human race if it is.
  7. Just sent my request to join.
  8. 1 point
    Maybe I should buy it back just to have it. lol
  9. Sounds like a good plan Chuck, Should get loud
  10. Just to , OP you're asking "which hammer is best to drive 3" deck screws into my dry-wall" the answer is "none". The fact that you're replacing blown speakers and already have 4 tweeters and are not happy is telling. I have a Challenger which is much bigger on the inside and the 2 tweeters from my component set on 50 watts rms could be the loudest and most irritating part of the system if I didn't EQ them DOWN. You are going about fixing your problem the wrong way, and buying things you don't need is the biggest waste of money there is.
  11. hope you get it on the eve!!!
  12. According to the tracking number it is expected delivery of 12/24/12 by end of day
  13. in russia beat drops you.....
  14. I have DSL but I'm sort of over having a home phone. So I check out the local cable company to see how much cable internet costs now, and I see they have a monthly data allowance? Fuck that, they can shove it up their ass. What other options are out there?
  15. I think getting a 2 way coaxial speaker like the kickers would be a lot better option than putting a set of tweeters back there
  16. You don't need fuses but they're suggested.
  17. You know what i didn't hear anyones setup the entire weekend yall were here. Except flavius, smh. I think the ugly guy wt the ponytail that couldn't get into the club wt his tennis shoes on was the only one to hear mine wt 1 blown sub b4 the cops busted a spotlight in my car. But ANYWAYS next time we all get together i'll be ready.
  18. lol o its coming very soon!! should have the system playing again by the weekend
  19. well i was trying to keep it under wraps and do an unvailing, but facebook fucked it up for me... .. i will now be running a pair of SSA Zcons ... i bought a pair for the mulit bass boxing champion nic watts ! on the way to texas as we speak
  20. putting a beating on that thing. nice
  21. Good shit! Your turn TIM!
  22. Got the triple inputs just waiting for more 4/0 cable and lugs to come in.
  23. I heard flux capacitors are pointless in car audio too. You must be doing 88mph to get any juice out of the alternator.
  24. lol its so funny, one guy is passed out in all blue, and one is passed out in all red, its like a bloods and crips slumber party
  25. Pics of the sleeve I just did on Jordan (Godsmack). He flew in and we jammed out the sleeve over the course of two days!! Enjoy. http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.352057994857993.81379.100001613862707&type=3
