Price on tweets? I need some for my bro's car. Post up some photos if you can so I can see if they will work.

It's all user-dependant. I would say there's something you WANT to shoot for definately. My box in my pickup has a Q of around .589 yet it gets very low with the driver placement and transfer function.

I just bought the Prestige APS-996A. They tested this against that very same Viper in an issue of CA&E and it virtually killed the Viper in every aspect. Remote start was better, display is better, range is WAY better, etc. etc. It has 7 accessory channels!!! Paid $135 for mine off Ebay. Oh, it was in the March 05 issue BTW. LOVE MINE!

If you don't find it let me know. My old 88 is still sitting in my old man's yard. I'm just hoping the vultures haven't ravenged it. BTW, did you get the Omnifi yet?

What the hell is that? You mean a AL3 ECM? nope, LA3. 88 TCoupe. such as this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...ssPageName=WDVW Let me check my stash, but I'm pretty sure all I have is GM stuff other than a couple A9Ls out of a couple 5L 5 speeds. IF not, I have the resources to acquire one. Does it have to be this exact model? Do you know if it's EECIII or EEC IV?

Best bet is right here. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detai...=books&n=507846

Sorry to be OT, but Dave, do you think you could fix an old ALpine 3552 with one blown channel?

YOu know, I never did sign up for one of these. Could provide useful for something I have planned. What's the deal on them? Shoot me a PM if necessary. Thanks!

Here's a great site if you want to gain some knowledge. . http://www.diysubwoofers.org Generally a Q 0f .707 is theoretically supposed to yield the flattest response throughout the usable frequency range of the driver. However most testing is done in an anechoic chamber and a vehicle will have cabin gain which will boost lowend output tremendously. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. When building a sealed enclosure you first have to set your performance goals. A larger enclosure will yield potentially deeper bass and more lowend extension, but it will also tend to provide muddy bass or boominess. It will also lower the thermal power handling of the driver. A positive side to that is it increases efficiency pretty much negating the lower power handling factor. I generally keep a couple test enclosures on hand to determine a near adequate size for my goals. This is not always possibled for some people due to constaints on space. After you set your goals, it's time to move onto space. Do you have the available space to build a larger enclosure? Are you stuck building the compact enclosure? See what I'm getting at here? There are a ton of places you could really go with this, but ultimately the 3 things I use to determine enclosure size are space, power on hand, and tuning functions. A smaller enclosure may not give you the lowend extension you are looking for, but if you have an EQ to boost that region, you can easily go with the smaller enclosure and still have the effects of a larger one. Pick up a copy of the Loudspeaker Design Cookbook. It's a tool every enclosure designer should have.

yea, i have no doubt that Dan could put together a solid car audio amp. I hate to make an example of Adire, I suppose that was a bad choice of company. However I still stand behind my statement, that I prefer that a company stick to just a few product lines instead of making EVERYTHING. I know exactly what you're saying and I agree. Someone questioned Nick once about SI making amps and I'm glad he said, "NEVER!"

SOme classes have specific rules on battery placement. I believe the one in question here calls for stock location.

I'm asking because I'm curious. How about this. What do you guys feel is really something other than equipment that is just too overpriced and not readily available to us?

Oh yeah there is larger wire. Largest I have ever seen is 1000Kcmil. It's about 3" in diameter. And that's just the wire itself. I'm quite sure there is even larger available. We used a lot of this stuff for some large buss jumpers between very large circuit breakers found at very large power plants. It's heavy as hell.

Does anyone see a need for lower priced High end installation accessories? What I'm saying is if you could get the Expensive Stinger, Tsunami, EFX stuff for a hair more than Knukonceptz would you buy it? Or Dynamat for that matter? How about some specialty tools that are not readily available to the average DIYer? Give me some feedback please. This is important.

I don't know your SN.

Don't you mean LARGER wire? More wire equals longer runs/voltage drops/increased resistance.

As soon as they are built, we'll be selling.

BRILLIANT!

BRILLIANT!

TITTIES! No pun intended!

Don't worry, USPS would've sent them both to the same place.

I hate cats. They are so worthless. Lazy bastards. And they take away my ability to breathe. what a waste of space.

Again.

You need to hook me up with their spokesmodels from CES!
