You sure can. Money is money. If that is the case then we wouldn't be able to compare chinese products to those made in the USA.

None of it will be useful. They will need time to be tested and see how they perform.

Thanks everyone, especially Bigjon!

I'm done with updating profiles on all job websites and finally created a profile on Linked In. Now to start applying for jobs.

Working on a little upholstery project for my desktop chair.

If you wired them in series-parallel it would be a 1.3ohm load. If this is for a daily driver system I would recommend sticking with the BC2000, I don't see the additional cost and electrical system requirements of the 3500 to be worth the minimal audible difference.

My opinion.. We do not need anymore battery brands unless something new in science were discovered and implemented into this hobby... Crescendo brand does price their equipment very competitively but something has me concerned here- their G31 batt is $279 with FREE shipping. That means the money they receive is actually lower than any other G31 car audio AGM batt out there which raises performance questions... Most batteries are always built by the same source, just slight changes and that's it.. Same casing, same charge requirements, same cycle life practically, noticed they are using pure virgin lead like many others too, same wattage recommendations as XS.. but their aH is higher than XS..but without the added weight of it.. That is assumed that either the wattage recommendation or specs are inflated. Simply put, your aH or reserve cannot increase without weight over another brand as battery manufacturing is all almost the same practically. XS G31s are 77lbs, same as odyssey.. oops.. Dekas and kinetiks are just under 70lbs. UPS batts and other cheaper batts require heavier weight, IE, larger aH ratings to reach the burst potential of XS, Odyssey, Stinger, Batcap, etc.. But since their batts defy battery logic.. i would say that i see no dieing need to use these when Diehard platinums are available with immediate warranty replacement. And i have a funny feeling the Diehard's, despite published specs between the two, can probably sustain higher voltage on a burp. But.. prove my thinking wrong.. i have done lots of research on batts and talked to several companies.. nothing extremely different changes from one brand to another.

How can you have a review or opinion on a product this new? It will take a year or more to get a full reliable review on a battery, unless they are just a POS.

I understand, and that's why I posted this. I will never use that term again. I just enjoy all aspects of music in my home and my truck. I just mainly wanted everyone here to know that I never meant any harm by it in any way. Thanks guys

Please bring back high resolution avatars.

I can neg everything you post. JK.

I agree it can be frustrating and its easy to become impatient. But with that said it is super busy right now with all the kids bombarding the place with Christmas money. Be thankful you have one of the owners here answering all your questions and you're not having to rely on email returns from FI. It would be different if you had ordered from some half ass company or some dude on ebay. Just sit back, dont worry and soon you will have some of the best audio equipment available.

WTF. Someone has some serious issues if they have to go back and remove everything they post.
