  6. Hello, and thanks in advance for your answers or comments! . ok. i have an older style fi btl 18 fully loaded. i blew it. i have it taken apart and the ring where the foam lip is located is completely clean. 1st question. 1. what is the best method to remove the leftovers from where the spiders were. ( about 1/4 inch of spider and alot of glue) i tried to use a dremel tool but it made bad odors that i didnt think would be good to breath in. i also tried a metal brush in my drill "was going VERY slow" and a knife didnt work well either 2. what type of glue do you use when you recone and is it something i can pick up at any hardware store? 3. is this something not to hard that i can do myself or should i send it in to be done. i think im pretty good with most everything i do. Thank you again!
  7. im in indianapolis! wooo. is anyone else on here from indy btw?
  8. holy jebus batman!!!! cant wait to see the rest :-D
  9. it's not under warranty anymore. so there is no way i can repair it myself?
  10. Ok, i have a pioneer avic N3 but the rca's are bad on the unit. how do i replace them or repair them. i have used a line output converter but i really dont like to use them. any help would be great. THANKS!!!!!!! Eddie G
  11. i have the 08 model. i was happy with it until i got a big system. this unit doesnt have a good anti skip. if you going to be making alot of vibrations invest in an ipod or a better deck. alot of features on this unit though. not bad for the money. Eddie G
  12. thanks for the tips. ya the stuff sometimes jells up if i use to much hardener. im using the bondo brand. what is a good brand to use? and the heat. on one batch that i had to dump i dumped it in aluminum foil and covered it. about 20 minutes later not thinking i picked the foil up to throw it away. WOW was i in for a surprise. that was HOTTT!!!!! i will get the pics posted today after work. thanks! Eddie G
  13. Hey everyone, hows it goin. ok, so today i started my first ever fiberglass project in my little brothers SUV, it's a mitsubishi montero. im putting a single 10" mtx 5500 single 4 ohm woofer in it. he listens to rock so i figured a 10 would be perfect in a sealed enclosure. today i went to the store got all the resin, hardener, mat, brushes, aluminum foil, making tape, ect ect. ive never done this before but i have read alot of forums on it and thought i would try it out. ( not in my vehicle of course ) so far tonight i got the foil layed in the area i want the enclosure. after i got that how i wanted it i put a quick thin layer of resin down then put the mat down. i learned fiberglass dries VERY fast and you need to prep a small area that you plan on doing RIGHT AWAY! and be prepared to go through a few brushes . and i also had to dispose of two mixes i made that i put to much hardener in, i can eyeball it out now to where it suites me! anyways; after i figured out how fast it dried i started prepping the area right before i layed the mat down and pressed it down with the brush and then brushed it out. seemed to work very well. i got two layers of the bottom down. i do have pics< i will put them up tomarrow!!!! if you guys have any input or suggestions that would be GREAT!!!!! thanks in advance. Eddie G
  14. im getting an alarm sometime soon. my truck got broken into 3 times within 2 months. wooo the ghetto sucks. lol. i have a factory alarm. they were ripping my stuff out with the factory alarm going off. i dont like the alpine type R's because the s's and the z's are pretty distorted. im going to look into the other speakers you guys have been telling me about. keep the idea's coming please :D thanks. Eddie G
  15. ok, im going to try them. thanks. idk if i can get those subs this weekend. friday is my 21st birthday, so i might not be able to make it and i dont know how my funds will be after that lol, sorry. i'll let you know for sure though. thanks Eddie Gossett
  16. i introduced a load to the amp before i powered it. i hooked up a single 4 ohm voice coil to the amp before i powered it. so it should have been there.... im hoping i can save this amp without spending to much money
  17. nope, that didnt work. now i either throw the amp away or get it shipped out for repair..... what do you think.?
  18. mine is apart right now, im using the duster in it and not seeing a spec move. i really hope i get as lucky as you did. the guy from dbr said sometimes the boards need to be disconnected then reconnected well and it'll work. but i did that last time to try. i have my fingers crossed though. i'll let you know here shortly. thanks. Eddie Gossett
  19. was yours a jl slash series? and clean it with duster spray? would that be ok you think? thanks in advance. Eddie Gossett
  20. thanks. im going to go take it apart right now and see. im not sure what all connections i can check inside the amp though... not to familiar with the guts of amps. thanks Eddie Gossett
  21. im looking for some good 6.5 mids for my 2005 durango. my factory radio is amplified. i will be adding an aftermarket amp for my aftermarket HU for mids. ( i tend to take out all my aftermarket stuff alot(crooks) ) i have a pioneer 6000 deck "new style", 18'' loaded btl; amp got stolen but getting a sundown 3000, but im going to switch between that and my kicker L7 of a us amps 1600.4 bridged at 4 ohms to put 1100 rms to the L7. so there will be plenty of bass. i have tried the alpine type R mids and they did not work for me. i was thinking focal. but ide like to get a few idea's from you guys. and what amp would you recomend on them. thanks. Eddie Gossett
  22. you never answered how it sounds. i wonder how well the sound stays in a boat like that??? curious
  23. i talked to db-r and he said he's not taking in anymore amplifiers at this time. so i need to find another way. is there anyone on here who would have any idea on where to start to trouble shoot this amp? thanks in advance! Eddie Gossett
  24. thanks for pointing me in the right direction big jon! . im new to these forums but everyone on here seems to be good solid people. glad to be a part of it. Eddie Gossett
