  1. Hey guys, I just got my pre ordered Z v.4 15 D2 last week and just got time to open her up to take pics. It hasn't been hooked up at all just taken out of the box to show you guys the pics. I would love to use this, but ended up going with 2 Sundown X 12s. So, that's the only reason I'm selling it. 500 + shipping. Also a D1 Xcon 12 will be for sale as soon as I recone it. The reason I think they read 2.6 is because my DMM negative probe fell off and it's just the wire touching it. Ever since it fell off all my reading have been a little higher then they should, so it's no problem.
  2. Yea exactly. That is way too long and to not even respond back is pretty bad.
  3. I asked for a design and it took ~30 days for me to decide to get a refund because of how it long it took.
  4. Lol uhh yea I change my mind a lot. I think I like the dual X 12s the best. They get crazy loud, even in the smaller box they're in now! I'm building a different one that's gonna be 6+ cubes
  5. That's how I do it lol. Been wanting to get a crimper though But it seems to work just as good so why get a crimper? Lol
  6. Thank you! I only use a circular saw and a jig saw. It'd be nice to have a table saw but I do just fine without it lol I was going to get one but I smash the hell out of the terminals with a large metal mallet and it works really good that way too. I can pull on the terminal and they don't move at all.
  7. How do you not know by now that we can't tell you which will be louder in a vs thread.

  9. I was just going to say a beer box...I forgot that you were underage Haha almost there!
  10. Yea I'm going to glue the spider landing only then do the surround. Thanks man.
  11. I just saw a video of cardboard from a pack of pop. I think I might try that.
  12. What do you guys use to recone subs? I'm reconing and Xcon 12 and not sure what use to center the coil. I think I saw someone use computer paper before. If so how many sheets of paper?

    That sounds a little high. Looked up the price of bullets, instantly became jealous. But it makes sense seeing that there is less lead than a 30 cal. I'm getting about $15 for 100 bullets at cheaper than dirt, so there's $.15 per round. Good luck shopping around for this. I've found prices to be pretty fixed. 1000 CCI 400 (small rifle) primers are $40 at cabelas so there's $.04 per round. You can try shopping around, but really at most you'll bring your price per round down a penny if you do so. And most of the common powders used to reload that round are about $25 per pound. It looks like 60 grain bullets are in the middle for .223 bullet weights. Within those it looks like ~23 grains is your average load. There are 7000 grains in a pound of powder so that's 304 bullets per pound or $0.08 per round. So without brass i'm at 28 cents per round. The most you should ever pay for used brass is 10 cents per cartridge. You should be able to reload most cases 5 times or more. So factor that in and your price for brass is really 2 cents per cartridge at most (assuming used brass). Some cases you'll be able to reload 20 times, other's you'll only be able to reload 2. It depends on the loads, your gun, the quality of the brass and how it's handled. Shop around for brass and you can bring that price down. Final cost per round: ~30 cents .223 rounds can be had for 50 cents a piece so you'll be reloading for ` the cost of new rounds. I wasn't lying earlier when I said most of the rounds I make are ` the price of pre-made rounds. As long as you aren't buying super expensive components and spend a few minutes shopping around you should be able to consistently see those savings. This is also assuming you get all this stuff locally and don't have to eat shipping/haz-mat fee's. Cabela's in Dundee is hit n'miss for primers and bullets. I always call them before I go since it's a bit of a trip. They have a horrid powder selection at that store; even when they have everything in stock. Hope that helps. Yea that helps a lot. Thanks. When I got to my dads in Monroe/Maybee. It's 15 mins from cabelas. I'll check there and see what they have.
  14. This is the best way I can explain why. I live in a very very small town. The type of place where if you do something wrong as a child your parents and grandparents know about it before you get home. My family name is a good one and we are known to help out as much as possible. It isn't just a better ploy of doing business. I believe it's a better way to live life and I'm much happier and prouder when I can truly help other people. You can ask anyone that knows me personally that it isn't just a front, it my way of life. That's awesome man. The world NEEDS more people like you. Eventually one day your products will be in my vehicle.
  15. Wow am I impressed. Quentin, your honesty and straight forwardness makes me want to try your product!
  16. I thought I missed the pics too and asked if he got 2 15s to replace lol then I look back and they were there haha
  17. They look sexy!! Have you had a chance to really listen to them yet?

    Me? I would only be reloading for my .223 since that's the only gun I'll be shooting really. So with a quick calculation of all the necessary things needed to reload, it comes to ~$.40 per round. Does that sound right? This is not including the press and other things needed to get started.

    I am amazed that you can find a range that doesn't sell its brass. They nearly all doYea when I was in Vegas the range sold them but idk if the one here in Kensington does. I'll have to call. What do you mean by shopping right? Like getting different things separately instead of in a bundle?
  20. EPerez replied to EPerez's topic in Off Topic
    I think i will definitely shoot more than 500 rounds a years. No matter what I do I am always super determined to make sure I do it exactly right. I'll have to look into doing it then since it does same money. It would be for my AR 15. Thanks man.

    Problem is i'm never done with my audio even when i think I will be lol. Problem is i'm never done with my audio even when i think I will be lol.Is reloading that much cheaper to do? But your so right. After you're done, if you're ever done lol, you won't have to spend money to listen to your system. With bullets, for me to go target shooting it's 50 cents a bullet. Ugh I hate that lol
  22. EPerez replied to EPerez's topic in Off Topic
    I know what you mean lol I love both guns and audio. I think right now is the biggest i'll go for my system and I'm to the point where i'm happy with what I have and won't make any more big changes or purchases for car audio.

    Not to generalize, but from what I saw kids had horrible parents. Just no discipline and complete enablers. It was disturbing. Most of them are horrible parents, but my one friend's parents can't do anything anymore, because he just does whatever. It does suck to see it happen.
  24. I would get a H/O alt with a large group 31 (like diehard platinum or xs 3100) with single run of 2/0 cable like Pmureika said. If voltage still drops, add another battery. I have some 2/0 welding supply cable for sale too.

    Keep it that way if you want a CPL in Michigan. They have zero tolerance for that shit. Watch out for kids like that out in Hartland... there seems to be a lot of them and it's a dangerous combo with the high percentage of firearm ownership out there. Yea definitely. Most of my friends have been arrested multiple times and do whatever they want. My friend has been dealing marijuana for a while and just now stepped up to coke. Now they do it so much. I haven't really hung out with them for the past couple weeks.
