What to look for in a car audio battery?
I've always known them to be. Grey is usually good for about 1,000 amps on its own, add blue to the mix, and you'll have yourself a whopper

How to determine amplifier output
Dependes entirely on the amp. Some won't change power output at all with a drop in input voltage, they will simply draw more current at the lower voltage to make the same power. As far as CEA specs go, IMO worthless for bandwidth limited amps since CEA specs use 1kHz for the rating freq. Most Class D sub amps won't play above 250-300Hz. A 1kHz spec isn't really going to tell you anything there now is it. I never knew CEA used such a high frequency... I thought they were in place to prevent such unrealistic practices

Difference in batteries.
I've heard good things about these batteries too... apparently for the price they're a solid choice, although I've never used them

Fun night..
Good story grim. It's nice to see that you didn't drop to his level and stayed polite about it all.... THEN laid down the hammer!

the calculations
I think I'd opt for two ports if they're only 4". It'll be a little less port area then a single 6", but should be about right. I believe the rule of thumb (and also as Fi recommends) is that you should go with about 14-16 times the net volume of your box... so let's say 14 x your 2.5 box would yield about 35" of desired port area. Two four inch ports will put you at 25", which is fairly close... if you use aeros as mentioned then it should be perfect. Correct me if I'm wrong.

remote question
It controls bass boost doesn't it? I could be wrong... As you can tell I've never really bothered with the things either.

1st test run for the new setup
If only more people would adopt that attitude, it'd be a much friendlier, welcoming "sport". I give you credit.

New Prototypes! Pics.
That'd be great... I'd love to trade up my pair of 1500d's for one, and pick up another... Will this be possible? EDIT: I just saw those internals, that thing is siiick!

On the other hand, I've gotta say I DO like most of the logo's I've seen so far. I've gotta say that I like this one best... Why? Because it's mine!

Mach 5 Audio Logo Competition
These both look almost exactly the same as EFFENDI's, except without the transparency... I wouldn't say EXACTLY, but looking back yeah, they did turn out sorta close. It's kind of coincidental though because my girlfriend gave orders on that one including colours and position, without seeing anything else in the thread. There are a couple of aspects that set it apart it as well, check yo-self

Okay I got a trial of photoshop just for this very occasion... Never used it before but I'm sorta getting the hang of it. Here's my proto revamped: And another one: A little different:

I banged out a proto logo today for fun on paint. Maybe with time and another program I'll pursue it (ie- actually use straight lines ahahah) BEHOLD THE POWER OF PAINT lol

A Quick Test
Thanks all, I look forward to improving and putting up some big numbers

A Quick Test
I didn't take any other pictures of the setup except for one of the box in the trunk, no big loss though, it was a camera phone, and the amps were just buried in a jumble of 1/0 and 8 gauge wire... not exactly asthetically pleasing.
