  1. Which Crescendo's?? ccx52 ---> 84 bucks shipped to my door. theres a 5dollar coupon , but i cant remember what is is..lol , sorry , i think its hummerccx65 , but not sure// http://www.crescendoaudio.com/home.php?cat=251 I believe the coupon is "hummerccx"
  2. lmao, That's a fail for him
  3. Interesting to see how the new type-r does. Wouldn't mess with the shallow though, I bet it'd take a shit real fast Oh and your setup is literally a woofer cooker
  4. Why even say that when you just said you have zero experience with them. Maybe their crap or maybe they sound really good if installed properly, but if you don't know then why slam them... OP, I did a google search on them and didn't find any informative posts about'm
  5. did you set the voltage meters based on a dmm reading or just installed them from factory settings? also what volt meters are you using? and you do that in a parallel setup the voltage will be constant right so if you are getting different readings there is something else a miss. also will a second run help you out... i say yes only because you are using more then 3k (amp specs) i say for every 3k use 1 run! but also keep in mind your alt is outputting at best 180 amps which is PLENTY for one run Since each run of 1/0 since each run can hold... what 200-300amps... depending on the brand if you had a 320amp alt i would say go with 2-3runs again depending on the brand used! Are you referring to the voltage difference from the front to the rear? If so, It's called resistance, whether it be from the single power run, poor ground, or chassis, etc. and X2 on what type of voltage meter your using? and did you adjust it to match the reading with your dmm? Or did you just stick it in?
  6. Sweet, now you just gotta brace the roof I bet that thing gets loud

  9. audioque 2200d, 0 guage wire, big 3, no extra batteries or anything yet. I dont have the amp yet, just ordered it so it may be fine, but I was just curious just in case. and yea I was thinking DC could customize something if needed. oh and i have a 2007 F-150...but keep in mind its a 4.2L V6, not the 4.6 or 5.4, its a lot harder to find things for the 4.2 Is this going to be a daily driver playing full tilt all the time? Or competing and full tilt is only for short runs? DC Power listed some older year f150s with the 4.2l option, but with your year it's not listed on the site, however that doesn't mean much, I bet if you call them they'll have it or could make it They also came out with another line of alternators, so depending on your needs and budget they have something that works for everyone. Do you ever plan on doing another build and using more amps? If so then I'd get a big alt. If your not going to be upgrading down the road then you could get one of their smaller alts and an extra battery and you'd probably be good for driving around at full tilt. If your just going to play it at full tilt for short sessions then a couple xspower batts would likely do. its just a daily driver, play at moderate levels sometimes and full tilt other times, but definitely not all the time. I am not adding more amps or doing another build, this is final Okay, I would suggest getting an alt. Some say you could use a large battery bank and be fine, but your always going to be draining them and needing a recharge when your at home, and a whole battery bank takes up space and weighs a lot. Either get a top of the line DC alt and run no extra batteries or get a lower line alt and an extra battery for the rear. At least that's what I would do

  13. Nice, cool feature finally adding wifi to phones. your avatar keeps getting better and better stef ... lol haha thanks I was screwing around before filming a ride, then at home I was like F*** it, I'll make an animated gif out of it
  14. x10 on Don from SDS, his stuff works very well and isn't overpriced. I went down to secondskinaudio the other day since they moved to my town. I was planning on buying some damplifier (big cld tile) and when I saw it, It's super thin compared to Don's cld tiles, I then looked at their damplifier pro and it was thicker then the damplifier but not as thick and Don's and after doing the math it was also pricier. Luckily they had some problem at their buildhouse and had a bunch of sheets that were thicker then the damplifier pro and they sold it to me for the price of the damplifier But I got lucky, so unless they run into another problem at their build house I'll be buying again from SDS for my future needs.

  16. bed liner, carpet, vinyl, veneer, gloss finish (hard to do with mdf, but possible).
  17. In your case you don't want to use it.
  18. wait on speakers your not supposed to be using LPF.... A, a subwoofer is a speaker and you just advised him on using a lpf for his sub amp. B, low pass filter is certainly a good idea for keeping your midbass drivers playing midbass and your tweeters playing highs. Is he running active no....I thought you don't need to run he LPF on Voice speakers. I don't know what speakers he's using lol I think its the Bravox's..... In that case they have their own passive crossover, and kinda explains why adjusting the lpf on your amp yielded no difference in sound So OP, don't worry about the lpf.
  19. x2. Specify your goals, what are you planning on running and charging in your vehicle? And then you turn around and say you may sell your truck soon. wtf. I recommend DC Power for an alt, that is if you decide to get one because you actually need it... Edit: what year f150? I tried a couple different year f150s for your engine on DC Power's site, and they make them

  23. What amp are you using? What music or song were you playing that made it seem like it sounded the same?
