The Towncar (with updates)
I'm hopeing it does. But the adheasive is very liquidy and it just doesnt justify the extra $0.20 per square foot in my opinion. I finally heard some music from it today. The battery was really low though. The current battery just isnt holding a charge. He is getting a new one once I finish.

Well I will not be purchaseing from RAAMatt agian. Extremely inferior to Second Skin IMO, much more dirty, and as liquidy as the adheasive is at 70 degrees am praying it will stay on at 110+. I do not reccomend it at all.

How to determine amplifier output
An LS1 is an LS1, no point in putting the car on a chassis dyno. Car weight, rotating inertia, and driver skill will all affect it's straight line perfomrance.

Hifonics Zeus 7500 vs. JL 500/1
That Hifonics is A/B... 500/1 is D...their efficency is probably right about the same, Hifonics may have the upper hand. For a class D amp the 500/1 has piss poor efficency.

port question...
Aero outside = better flow. It also allows you to put the port output furter away from the speaker which can help to better put front and back waves in phase. It also allows for easy tuning changes with out removeing the port ends. There is really no point in putting a slot port outside of the box. IMO.

Hifonics Zeus 7500 vs. JL 500/1
I'm a Hifonics guy for budget amps. But if your electrical can handle the piss poor efficency of the 500/1 and you can get a working 500/1 for that price I'd go JL. You might be able to dump it for a little extra cash in the end.

welding wire?
2 1/0 > 1 2/0 if your extra connections are low resistance.

How to determine amplifier output
Osciliscope True RMS Amp meter True RMS volt meter or True RMS amp meter True RMS volte meter Stable load that doesnt induce current phase change. Osciliscopes range in price. Osciliscope cards for computers run for about $150 and a little more for good software. Stand alone units can be had for $200-500 used and new they can be several thousand. True RMS amp meters run around $100 and I reccomend Fluke Highly. True RMS volt meters can be had in almost any decent DMM. Good DMM's usually cost over $50. Agian I reccomend Fluke. For a stable load you can purchase them, or get a bunch non inductive 25w cremic resistors (like $1.50 each), wire them to the load you need, then submerge them in a bucket of distilled watter after cleaning them with acetone so the water doesnt get contaminated with electrolytes.

Must-see Movies
Same here. Really liked Gladiator, so I'm hoping this will be as endearing. I liked Troy, well any movie about Greek and Roman Mythology or that era of empires and wars. It is part of the reason I took Latin instead of spanish or french. I'm going to be in J-Ville weekend after this comming. They have a pretty good iMax...I hope they are playing it.

The Towncar (with updates)
Weldingsupply.com vs Ebay chitty Pic of a home made Y cable Working on getting the tweeters flushed I hate dash boards Pre-CB specialty molding clay. Instead of non hardening modleing clay I got something else. I will clue you in on that later. Beleive it or not there is almost 3sqft right on and around the baffle there. Thoes doors are flimsy like aluminum foil.

Some thoughts on excursion and the infamous "Xmax"
Got it. My misconception of linear. Cant beleive I didnt catch that.

Speaker bs...
We aren't saying that the Rl-P 18 will be bad. I'm sure it will be awsome. We are saying X-Whatever is not the most important spec. Especially xMech, which a lot of drivers will fail thermally before they could dream of reaching.

Crashing issues..
That is a lotta USB items running at once. Like sean said, too much power comming off of measly USB votage. Have you tried swapping some of that over to a powered hub?

Life Guards
Sounds good. I forgot about the bottom rescue. BSA botom rescue was a 25lb steel weight in merky waters. Nothing too dificult, though harder for us twig-skinny guys with no body fat boyancy.
