  1. that is unacceptable. there is a big demand. I do not think any of the parts used are so special that the sub cannot be built anymore.... The magnet tooling that was used on the V1 was destroyed and is unavailable. They are not a common size magnet, therefore it can not be built.
  2. God damn, cleaned up what I saw Jon.
  3. Read the selling rules. You need to attach a piece of paper with your user Id and date plus ssa forum on it.
  4. The entire world needs tow truck drivers. You have no idea what it takes to do that job. In fact, few people do. I guarantee you if you had to do that job for a week, you would think more of a man whom you think merely drives a truck and hooks chains to cars.

    Yes sir. No deadlines, no stress, no obligations. Just having fun building a bad ass car. Then sell it probably and start over.
  6. watch the video man..it explains EVERYTHING
  7. Don't listen to the stereo with the car off. Have you checked the flux capacitor?
  8. bass boost is on..there's your problem watch..learn
  9. The response of larger subs being slower than smaller subs is a myth. The response has to do with the box. Both get loud and sound amazing, but I am a little bias with me owning a Xcon.
  10. Great seller here!
  11. I never post gun pictures, but this is one that I could not resist!
  12. WTF are you talking about dude you JUST asked almost the same question 5 mins ago in your own topic......
  13. ohhh shiz. m5 steppin in with the smack down. anyways, as for musical ability of the subs, thats 90% box... i built a box for my single dd 9518 that was more musical and played lower than any single btl set up i've ever heard... same sub i burped a 147.7 with on less than 2500 rms. either way, this will simply prove that in this particular set up, one sub is more inclined to be successful in that particular scenario. the real test would be doing 20 different boxes, with power ranging from 1k rms to 4k rms, and seeing which subs hold up the best, put up the highest numbers, and are the most flexible in the variation of set ups. that would actually give you an idea of which sub is "better".
  14. out of curiosity why is bass boost there? what is its 'intended' function? it seems odd to me that a dial that has no positive effects would be on every amp.

    adrian , have you already soldered te speakerwire to the speaker connectors ?
  16. yup yup, i love a lincoln. i wish i had pics of my first two lincolns... the ones that started the LINCOLN LOVE FEST<
  17. do i like lincolns.... i love them.... my oldest so far is the white one in the pics its a 75, and ITS ALL OEM. down to the 8 track. cant wait to see your buddys..
  18. i think its almarosa... like that rude bitch on that show YOUR FIRED.
  19. no sound matt...... ... it does not drop to 12.6 its the angle of the light... i shot another video of the voltage and the voltage only.... the only time it dips is when i have the headlights A/C screens and music. i had a small problem with the reverse HID's when i fixem ill take a vid..... i never liked ford till i met a lincoln. thanks guys.
  20. I can understand just caught a glimpse of the meter in that video. I am curious as to where your taking the voltage measurement at though, at the battery or at the amps terminals. for now.. i have it just on my fused box for my car.. im using a empty slot... so its reading my over all power... i may or may not get another one to run right on my amp input power to read the instant power.
  21. someone asked for more pics og the lady.... here ya go i washed and waxed me car sunday...... ...... o yeah.. and i went hunting for the UPS guy today.... he had two of my amps...... my goliath that has been at repair sence aug 07..... and my new sundown..... i threw it in really fast when i got home.. i did a quick tune on it... sounds better.. i thought it would have a little more power.. but i guess with tuning i will get it right.
  22. damn it.. i was all happy to see a towncar build
  23. How the hell are you gonna do that? if you don't have clamp meters? .. So this test is already worhtless before you begin it.. If the DD wins this one i'll take off my hat for this one. My friend will have his clamp meters We are just doing a basic test man. It's not going to be in all professional That's exactly it. If the all mighty DD wins when it has the power disadvantage we will know who is king. No..it is not a definitive answer, there is no definitive answer. It is not black and white like that..the only thing that can be said is speaker X was louder then speaker Y in this very specific install. It does not remain constant at all what so ever . Some speakers work better in some applications..for reasons that simply is a waste of time to find out.
  24. What is the goal of the "drop in test"? You state you are trying to see which has the highest score, but the real question is why and what information do you plan to glean from this?
  25. Alan, you really need to get off of M5's nuts...
  26. Actually there is/was no member controversy here so no need to start some hysterical movement on the forum, lol.
  27. oh you didnt know!? yes she is.. and well.. she just may be im fighting the urge to do anything custom to it... as i do not want it to attract any attention while im swimming ... not to mention these trucks so known for a quick door lock pop and ignition pop ...... but M-fer aftermarket parts are SOOOOOO easy to find for these.
  28. yes sir this is a different spot indeed i have like 9 spots,... i like to change it up the water leak? well its dripping from the driver side top corrnor of the radiator from what i can noooo im trying not to do anything in it! nothing at all.. its hard but im trying
  29. ima put some skam subs in it! it sounds damn good for a factory stereo i was shocked... but i do have some kicker 8s laying around...... wait NO!!!
  30. He really wants to put a system in it but i have to remind him about stewie and why he got it.lol i wouldn't mind but its for the river!..oh no i am not naked he just said "look" lol.
  31. maybe a single 8 maybe.. but really man the factory stereo sounds great, dani has a maxima with the bose system and this truck sounds better then it!! but i need to fix alot of other shit first... we both have to roll our windows down to get out! neither inside door handles work, i need an A/c compressor of course its a Chevy and they always leak in the case, and i don't want to put a new tranny in it.. because its a 700 dollar truck.. but man for over 200K the motor seems really solid, no chatter or rattle plenty of power, i hate to see my self putting that kinda money into it.. but i really really want a tow pig for the lincoln.. but i have to keep telling my self this is not it!!!! its a throw away truck... remind me of that guys
  32. so me dani and my dog stewie love going swimming in the summer.. we live in a very uniqe spot of texas.. we have a spring river that starts in out town, and we live close to a hand full of lakes, but me and dani both have leather in out cars, and stewies nails are huge not to mention neither one of have a trunk to speak of so its a pain in the ass to take coolers chairs and so forth... so i bought a SUV for about 700 bucks.. it needs some love.. i got it off a collage kid that haddent a clue about cars so.. and ill post of pic of why i bought it trail to the river looking back it needs a few things, main thing the tranny slips a little in first... not a huge deal for what we need it for.. just locally, barn door latch is broken, a/c does not work ignition switch is screwy ( classic chevy) inside driver door handle does not work driver side break lights not working carpet is filthy paint is sun faded badly the gas gauge does not work radiator leaks a little spare is mounted on the front, OEM is flat needs to be repaired and swapped driver inside door handle not working, driver side window now is not working ill add and strike things that as i repair them... today was a hot day but i got some work done!! so this will be the river caddy!
  33. That will be more dependent on the box not the sub or the size of the sub. Why do you keep making all of these threads?
  34. in the topic of " project stupid" i marked BASSmaster comment negitive by mistake can someone fix it please
  35. amen, i wish every one had a loved one do my job for a week.. then people may move out of the lane when im trying to work... not to mention gain respect for the amount of knowledge one must have to tow a car truck or 18 wheeler........ if the wrecker industry shut down for a week the world as you know it would stop.. you think traffic is bad now lol./ its a crash parts company just a change, somthing with set hours. weekends and nights off, 401 K bennies shit like that ... just a change. i have been living my life on the edge long enough....... i almost dies today as a matter of fact
  36. were we go again
  37. cause the sp4 motor is too much for the parts when the user is doing shit he/she shouldn't
  38. Never ever use the bass boost on your amplifier, it creates distortion which anally rapes your sub
  39. If wanted to amplify bass from a source that is weak or does not have an equalizer, using the bass boost could be acceptable certain old music and metal has quiet bass too, this boost would also be helpful in those situations
  40. Hi I want to buy a couple SMD 18's for my next build but I cannot find any They are the baddest subs ever and I need them I do not want used I want fresh built Does AA ever intend to build these again? Can I pre-order the V2? Thanks
  41. Baby or drugs? J UA for a new job hopefully I didn't know UA needed tow truck drivers
  42. that is unacceptable. there is a big demand. I do not think any of the parts used are so special that the sub cannot be built anymore....
