  1. Okay so I won't have to ground this one? What do you say Ricki?Well, Yeah you'd have to ground it regardless. Unless you have a magical amp that doesn't require a ground. Sorry what I meant was do I need to run the amp ground to one terminal and then run a ground out the other terminal to the chassis or can I just ground the amp in one terminal and call it a day?

  3. Something is wrong with ecu maybe. Take to qualified mechanic
  4. What kind do I need to kind so a frame ground isn't necessary Julian?
  5. If I get one of these ground distributions blocks do I need to ground it the frame of my car or does it act like a self ground. Answer to this question would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Matthew
  6. Oh and welcome to the forum
  7. Sencheezy had around 130 for one SSA evil 18 if that helps you out any. Zcon is the next line down
  8. Thank you. How many bc2000s are in stock? And no problem buddyMark would know the exact figure as the Crescendo amplifiers are stocked in NY.What did you say?We have an office in NY, Mark is in NY, a big shipment of Crescendo amps just arrived yesterday and Mark would know exactly what we have. That's what I thought

  11. Would be nice if I had the money. I will refer others regardless
  12. That amplifier looks like it is too big to even fit in my car
  13. So they can fit under the seat so people don't think you have an audio systemYou obviously do not know what the floor pan looks like under a 4 door dodge. I thought all trucks had the ability to hide subwoofers under the rear seat. My apologies if this is not the case.

  15. No, don't quit talking, ever. Just don't help perpetuate this myth. Car audio is full of this crap. This site is supposed to help people. When certain things are said (in error) all they do , keep the dumb people dumber. I have no doubt you understand this thread, just be careful with what you say as you will confuse the crap out of others.Okay I like you. You are a chill dude. Do you know how to create battery terminals from scratch? You need to just private message him. Would you delete my post please?
  16. 1 ICON can get very loud.Enclosure is key
  17. They will hit hard but they are more sound quality oriented drivers. I promise though that you will not be disappointed if you purchase one
  18. this is why I started this thread. I find in car audio especially, there are a ton of myths and misrepresentations, and a lot of dishonesty. When people stop talking and learning, these myths/misrepresentations start getting passed around as truths, and people spend money on things that they shouldn't.I've lost count of the systems I've seen where a guys is running a 1200 watt mono block in a subcompact with a 90 amp alt, and thinks that the capacitor the guy at (insert box store/sleazy salesman name here) sold him has solved all of his issues... When I started buying car audio 13 years ago, I didn't see any CCA wire, everywhere had just copper or 99% pure OFC (what they advertised). Now I'm seeing CCA kits, rated to carry the same amperage as OFC for 2/3 the price with salesguys saying the standard "electrical current is carried on the outside of the wire, therefore the copper cladding is all you need, this wire is just as good for less of a cost...." Have I mentioned I don't like most sales guys I meet... I guess I'm just at a point where I like to see intelligent conversation started based on factual information so that those who may not necessarily have the technical know how can easily see the reasons behind the why and how of this hobby/profession/obsession. On that note, I personally am not currently in the market for wire, was just looking for some info to feed my addiction. And a big thanks to those that have answered, I love a good discussion. And a big thanks to 95Honda, have always found your posts to be very informative and helpful, I remember reading your posts on soundillusions.net when I first got into this. And another big thanks to djjdnap for the info from bcae1.com, have loved that site for years. Audio constantly changes so therefore we are in this together to help each other grow

  20. Stupidity at its finest
  21. I'm sorry. I will quit talking now
  22. I have their 1 gauge ofc cable and it is some if the thickest wire you can getAgain, this is what you guys are completely missing in this thread. The "thickness" of stranded power wire has nothing to do with the overall AWG. The "thickness" is determined primarily from physical construction and strand count. And when you are talking DC current, these do NOT affect performance... At all... Saying one wire is thicker than another makes about as much sense as comparing the jacket color...I did not say it had more capabilities because it is thicker. I just stated it is a large wire. Nothing more nothing less
  23. I think he is from the suck my dick forum... Just a hunch
