  1. Not feeling motivated to do anything today
  2. theres no built in fuse on the 2608. and this is going to sound very irresponsible and noobish... but i didnt have an external fuse on it. from a birds eye view, this was probably an event waiting to happen. im a broke 19 year old student. im running 4 guage, stock electrical, and no fuses. very stupid, i know. Yea. lesson learned. never just assume that your systeme will be ok without fuses where they belong, because stuff like this happens. take the extra 20 mins to install the fuse and fuse block next time. Fuses won't help a faulty amp. If it goes, it goes. It only helps protect your car in case the power supply of the amp takes a dump and acts like a short circuit between the positive and negative wire.
  3. And you don't visit me ?!?! Come to the black forest and consider yourself visited. ahhh, easy, I'll set sail and navigate up the Danube. Should be there quick !
  4. Home made, on some utopia 3 way's.
  5. And you don't visit me ?!?!
  6. I suspected that it's lighter but it was just for my own curiosity
  7. I don't think anyone tries to cut them down intentionally. Most of the problem lies in the fact that you portray them as the holy grail of speakers, which they are not.
  8. I wasn't sure about those, but I was told they were accurate so I included them. Are they wrong? I think I see They are wrong. Quad 4 : 1, 4 or 16 ohms. Quad 2 : 0.5, 2 or 8 ohms Quad 1 : 0.25, 1 or 4 ohms. Yeah, just referring to how it's nice to see a topic about impedance and not impedance rise. It's actually a reference for people that are too lazy do do some math on their own. The formulas for figuring out the final resistance are out there, these are just particular cases.
  9. oh really? and I suppose now you are going to tell me the best sounding cars in the world are active and not passive? haha sorry, but I have some strong foundations on this stuff, maybe you would like me to grab a couple world class SQ guys to chime in? oh, and I would also love for you to tell Scott Buwalda, the godfather of Sound Quality (before Hybrid even existed) that the car that won back to back SQ world championships with kick-panel installs has problem with stage height! LOL I would love to see you try tell him that. Kicks work great because they are further away from you, and the distance difference from left and right drivers is very minimal, so sound waves hit you at the same time resulting in the affect of the drivers sounding as if they are far in front of you, and present a beautiful stage that is at eye level (ear-level) and also great stage width as that is also the widest spot in the vehicle. In SUV's many times kicks are even that much better because the dash overhand doesn't interfere. however, trucks are much wider than cars and usually a couple m/s t. corr. fixes the problem where it feels as if you are sitting on the left side of the stage from the driver's seat. In a car, getting a passive set to sound right is a pain in the behind compared to an active set and it implies building new crossovers any time you want to modify something. I personally know a home audio nut who tried a passive 3-way set in his car, very picky person, and he eventually quite and went active.
