  1. Well I finally got a new amp and battery to throw the rebuilt ZCON on. Hopefully this weekend I will get everything in the car.
  2. Last chance, wrong place to be making insults which include making fun of handicapped children. Maybe you should read your posts before you type and negatively react to every post in response to you. You are not getting your original point across the first time because you do not take the time to proof read, make changes/correct your post/point, and then click the submit reply.
  3. As the parent of a child with special needs, I assure you that had you said this in front of me you would have way less teeth. You may or may not beat my ass but regardless you would regret the garbage ever leaving your mouth. Think about what you say before you say it! You are a total disruption not only to this forum but as a human being as well. Good day sir!
  4. Once these are available and amps are out ill have an all ssa build other than electrical

    If anyone wants to see the build its on Facebook good vibrations sub boxes and under the album 2005 ford escape
  6. Feed it good power and any zcon of any size will handle 4k all day...
  7. HUGE zcon fan here... Honestly I'd go zcon before evil. If you know the "con" line from ssa... Zcon is the pinnacle... Evil is a whole different critter. Either way FUCK YEAH SSA!

    It is just to prevent backfeeding voltage. I've never seen a h/u or 12v device fail because one wasn't there...but am sure now that I type that I will. Easy enough to add a diode.

    Yes. ANY unusual smell is bad. There is nothing fragrant about a car stereo...or at least there shouldn't be. Your arbitrary 1/4-1/2 gain to be conservative is not conservative at all. If it is distorted you are overdriving/clipping or the like which is most likely the cause of the smell. Keeping going as you have it could end up being expensive.
  11. If you would read what you typed before you hit submit it would help. Here is what most people on the forum read: Sad since you obviously didn't mean that...but it is what you typed. You clarify after, but it doesn't explain why you would say that. You could have said something like the tires wouldn't be a problem if she changed her gears and no one would have called out the idiocy. Type, read, re-read, re-read then hit submit. Will REALLY help.
  12. Weren't you just crying about name calling, haha.
  13. Maybe I'm wording my explanation wrong but I assure you I have had many, many, systems. But they where made for cars I didn't turn my doors into speaker boxes and all that like you guys do now. I'm old school in my day we usually had 2 amps one for subs one for components that we placed in factory locations. We always used rows of battery banks instead of HO Alts because back then they where rediculously expensive and hard to come buy. I started like a lot of kids in the early 90's with a set of W1's in small sealed boxes and pretty quickly moved up to 3 12w6v1's ran off Phoenix gold M100 and had the M50 on my infinity cappa components. Then I went for a b pillar wall with 4 15" L7 kicker squares ran off 4 ZX2500 amps in a Z28 with a hatch full of optima yellow tops we had to charge every night before going cruising. I also had 2 death penalty 15"s ran off a US2000x in a trunk car and I have always just used factory locations for component speakers with the tweeter aimed at my ear. When I got back into it a couple of years ago I did the same thing with my avenger I use a mono block to run my sub and replaced all the factory speaker locations and added a second battery in the back. Basically you guys still use the same method of sub stage we did but have switched to running active house speakers on your front stage with no rear's. But even still I don't see many audio shops doing it your guys way most still just replace the factory's for automotive components and through some bass in running passive is this because it's so much easier or cheaper or what?
  14. Don't be negative and call me a liar and I want give you bad rep. I never said one ill word to anyone I explained we just never tried it and you say I have never had a system I'm just guessing. I wasn't implying anything I'm sure installed properly these house speakers do sound better no doudt I just ain't never tried it.
  15. So its not the tires that are a problem, but having 37s is messing up her gears. Makes sense If she didnt have those tires would her gears still be messed up?
  16. No I meant exactly what I said, if you choose to interpret it wrong that's your problem. Tires don't burn up transmissions, wrong gearing, heat, and pressure does, which is exactly what she got with a taller tire and off roading! Let's not be little nit picking bitches here where men, well some of us are anyways. It would be like you saying, he had to small a wire on the amp and the electricity burnt the amp up. Well no it wasn't the electricity, but the lack of implementing it right, in this case it would be lack of a bigger wire. You girls never heard the expression, "making yourself small in the eyes of the world to comfort other smaller people, serves no one, rather we should serve as an example and be a shining light, to light the way for others? Instead of inciting petty arguments and being petty how about lead through example, and be the bigger men.
