  1. Interesting, I couldn't disagree more. This is the first leftover meal I've eaten in months. I abhor leftovers. Normally they get frozen and my wife eats them at work or when I am traveling. *exception are raw ingredient leftovers like tomatoes cooked down into sauce, stock, etc... I'm the exact same way, I despise leftovers unless they can be made into something else. Like leftover pork made into pulled pork sandwiches. Well, I take that back... After chili has set in the frig overnight it gets much better.
  2. 9/10 C pillar walls IMO do not get very loud in most cases. I've seen a few that would do good numbers but they do not compare to a full wall or even as Stefan stated a box in the rear cargo area. You the added cargo area but sacrifice cabin gain. My friend built a very impressive c pillar wall with 4 RF 15's on ~12k, but it was only doing 54's or 55's in comparison to my (at the time) 2 18's on 6k a dB higher.
  3. UPS has done that to me, I've ordered a few things from SSA/FI and before it would ever update it would be at my door step.. Then the day they delivered it would show up as shipped and received.
  4. after a 2 mins or so I can drop down to 12v if I'm hitting it hard.
  5. So my internet is insanely slow here at the house, I call up At&T and speak with them and they tell me the fastest internet they offer in my area is 3.0 Mb/s... Jesus that is SLOW.
  6. Perfectly practical.
  7. Yeah that's my plan, I'll have to fill it in everywhere and get rid of the deadspace in it.
  8. Alright little big update. mmmm..... The sad thing is the box volume is wayyyyyyy too big especially for this amount of power.. subs are bottoming out like crazy on certain songs, I need to figure out what's going on.
  9. If you look closely they're all facing the same way and spaced the same too lol. When I get more money or sell the diehards and go with 540's I may get busbars.
  10. I love having a great camera.. Just need to remember to document more!
  11. Waarrrmttthhh Using some soundstream 1/0 for the amps, pretty nice stuff for the price. Diyma ring terminals for the 1/0, although they're sized up to 2/0. All layed out Gtting soem cluse up hydraulic crimper action! The end result. the sides are kinda extruded out but it'll be fine Halfway done The best 2 tools in the world. Looks like a mess... All zip tied up I'm using piggy back RCAs, to prevent them from coming out. Both heat shrinked up Speaker wires ran neatly and ziptied.
  12. first!
  13. Has the site been running insanely slow for anyone else?
  14. My boat batteries sit for 6 months in the frozen tundra under a tarp and have ALWAYS started my boat come spring without a charger. You have parasitic draw somewhere in your vehicle that pulled them down. I'd bet money on it. They were on a shelve connected in parallel, and being maintained by my Schumacher AGM intellicharger, my father had to do some electrical work on the house and I'm guessing he accidentally hit the wrong C/B and shut it off.. They tested them and apparently one of them had a bad cell. I'm not sure how they tell but they used a SNAPOn battery tester. So from that I'm going to assume where the parasitic drain came from.
  15. It fits perfectly, 1.5" of clearance, although it'll suck to adjust it.
  16. That is an old wives-tale, DC does not induce noise. Is the noise present only when your car is running? My fuel pumps would cause noise I had to route them around them
  17. Check all of your grounds especially if you used ring terminals. Lower your gain till your noise goes away, that is what your gain is for.. to reduce your noise ceiling. Also if that doesn't work, try grounding the outside shield of the RCA's to your head unit. A combination of those could help.
  18. Okay, Finally got the battery situation figured out. The people at Sears could NOT find my invoice, they said they couldn't find anything (come to learn 99% likely they didn't want to warranty them out because it means money out of their pockets), so I had my friend who works at a different local sears store.. Within 5 minutes he had it pulled up and faxed over, with invoice in hand they STILL "couldn't" find the original invoice even with the same invoice numbers.. After about 5 minutes of bitching at them they finally pulled it up.. THEN they tried to nit pit about how on the computer the product number is xxxxx31 and on the receipt it said xxxxx31m. After a few more minutes of bitching them out they finally agreed to warranty them out. What I'm "assuming" what happened; is one of them had a bad cell and it drained the shit out of them to the point where the went bad. They sat 2 months uncharged in very cold temps in my garage Initial test fit, Seems like they were almost made to fit, they fit tightly side to side, luckily the C&D's were less than .25 wider than the diehards. put the larger C&D's on the outside to distribute the weight of the larger batts. Used a strip of 12 ga angle iron (I don't know the exact name) to hold them from moving backwards.. Yes those are wing nuts, I ran out of washers and wanted to get it all in, lol.

  20. I would go for more coils personally cone area isnt everything
  21. When I was gone the battery charger shut off and they died.
  22. The alt bar is 1/2" thick by around 6" long, It was made by ProjectDB and it is in no danger of arcing on anything.. it has good clearance all around, but for an extra layer of security I put several layers on the bottom/sides.
