Frying the x-overs means you are either clipping, or overpowering.

I think I told him that at least 4 times...

Yup... kinda wondering what is going on to make them blow like that... Spend the money on a set of good quality components in the front, and an amp to power them.

I have this information for a Firebird... but imagine they are the same: Constant 12V+: Red in Ignition Switch Harness Starter: Yellow in Ignition Switch Harness Ignition: Pink in Ignition Switch Harness Accessory: Orange in Ignition Switch Harness Tach: White in Coil Brake Switch: White in Brake Switch Trunk Pin: White (-) in Cargo Compartment Light Parking Lights: Brown in Light Switch Head Lamp: Yellow in Light Switch Hood Pin: n/a, have to install your own Factory Disarm: n/a Door Trigger: White (-) in Driver's Pin Switch Door Lock: Light Blue in Driver's Kick Panel Door Unlock: Black in Positive Trigger Horn Wire: Black (-) in Steering Column That is just information I have, I do not know if it is 100% correct. Check all wires before using them to insure that they are indeed correct. I assume no responsibility for any mistakes in the wiring information.

You've never had real cow until you've had cow right from the ranch, mmmm.

Round port and slot port are no different. You need slightly less port area when using round ports because of the reduction in friction.

Nothing wrong with hi-grade plywood.

What meter? Good score for a single 15 in a SQL setup!

Will feedback into the other sources.

You can only measure true power with a load that will no change impedance as it warms up, and as the frequency changes, etc.

Don't have the money for an o-scope. How many shops actually have an o-scope? How much do you think they'd charge to dial in your amps? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Is this pondering out loud? I have no idea how many shops have an o-scope, I am pretty sure none around me do.

Check your voltage, if it drops too much, the amp will shut off.

Not bad I'd think, just make sure you will like the Glide-Touch. I HATE it.

So... whats the verdict? Everything work out alright?

Some of what you wrote, I don't follow... understate the voltage? Ratings are in watts. What deck are you using anyways? The only real way to tell you aren't getting any clipping at all is to use an o-scope. Second best method, is to get the amp benched, and use the DMM method. Third, is just to use the DMM Method with the amplifier ratings.

Well, at leastb his idiocy its well known by now, and Mike doesn't have this "bad" feedback hanging there over his head.

Glad he at least sold it to someone intelligent enough to be able to use it. Where at the pics? We need pics

I can't see it...

Gambling to make money isn't either I used to work for the lottery corporation here, I got paid because of people like that

Hmm, about that, give or take 1/2 hour. Mapquest will give you the downlow though

Glide-touch = awful. My 7894 hasn't given me a reason yet to think about replacing it. It's a few years old, and may not be in absolutely mint condition, but it keeps working <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Mine hasnt given me any reason to be replaced either, but I wouldn't mind stepping up to the active crossovers that the new decks provide.

Nice deck, I wish I had one. Roommate picked up a 9855, nice deck and all, but I absolutely despise the glide-touch.

I burnt my left arm driving 3.5 hours this morning, and good too. Never has happened before... now it will match my face that burnt over last weekend at the lake.

Just don't squeeze!

That's a rather large crowbar Steve, I don't think we even have one that big on the farm Just wrenches that are taller than me, 1"x3" thick and weigh 35 pounds.
