She looks like fun

We thought about removing it. Looks like we'll take it off and see about making it more solid. Thank you guys!

It is Fiberglas but hollow inside.

UFO magnet for sure

Getting terrible rattles coming from a stock spoiler in a 2008 Grand Prix. What's the recommended treatment here? My first thought is taking it off and drilling a small hole to shoot expanding foam in. Unsure how the expanding foam really works and if it has any negatives.

Thank you. It's real hard to tell which one sounds best. I just switched it so I'll run it another week and see how it goes.

You talking a 12v car battery? I used to use a little square 9v batterie but last I checked it doesn't move subs like these enough to tell

Single sub setup

Wired my sub + to + - to - and took 1 + and 1 - out to the amp. Dual 2 ohm icon is the sub. I know I hooked it up like that on the speaker but completely forgot which wire was negative and positive lol. Rather not pull the sub at this point. 1. What is another method of figuring out what is what and 2. What kind of damage if any can come from this? At the amp I'm reading exactly 1.0 no matter how I hook the probes up to it

I'm a magic mushroom guy myself. Don't care for mushrooms in my food. Had plenty of wild nights shroomin. Kinda cool you pick them and make some side cash!

Your work is beautiful but you don't ship enclosures? That sucks for maybe 95% of us here.

If you look at the former usually you can see the model written in sharpie.

Short answer, I hated it for about a week, fixed a rookie wire job I did and now I'm in love

Lured me in. Love the 80prs. Never owned a Benz yet. Good luck with your sale brother! If it resembles the other stuff you sale around here it's well taken care of!

I did some work on an old mans house a while back that had some crazy stuff going on in his garage. Tons and tons of that type of equipment. He explained but I don't really remember. He acted as if not many people are able to legally do the things he can. Sounded like he was talking real far. He even built some of these big systems he had. Everything looked super old. Lots of tubes everywhere. He even had his own...not sure what it was. Was like a 3 or 4 letter kind of thing. Represented his location or something? He had stickers made of it. I'm babbling maybe you can make sense of some of that lol. I thought it was cool as hell and he blew me away with how much he knew. Probably an 85+ yr old man who has done that type of thing his entire life.

What makes these any different than sundown, crescendo, skar.. etc?

Goes way into the negatives I believe. If I remember right I have it set in the negatives. It's a deh 80prs

I had a older Tahoe at one point.. Found a higher output alt and bought it. Worst purchase ever. Every time I stopped at a light or stop sign the pos would drop voltage badly. Unless I was like 2k rpm or higher it was garbage. Pissed me off watching the gauge drop that much so often. Moral of the story is spend a few extra bucks on the alternator if your going to do it. Edit: was a db electric alt and I think I spent no more than like $200. Glad that's gone. Turned around and bought a DC power alt for the next one.

I always start at 0 and adjust from there.

I got a 12" icon now

Nice cuts! Just put a box together today and it's no where near that good. Assume you had a table saw? Sweet enclosure!

Demo in cars? Didn't know they do that. All I've ever seen is soundboards.

You should grab a measuring tape and figure out max dimensions taking into consideration your trunk opening unless you plan to build inside the trunk. Maybe snap a couple pics. In my 11 Malibu forward firing has sounded the best so far, as long as I lay the driver side rear seat down. Sounds like ass to me if the rear seats are in the closed position.

I like how your being active here. Never ran SQ gear but being here to talk with us is always a good thing. May possibly deal with you in the future!
