viper167

so still no new updates ?

well i cant wait ... im going to upgrade my sa-8's to these bad boys !!

any new updates ?

the fuse is there to protect the car .. not the the wire . it acts the same way as your stock power wire. it also has a fuse on it , wish is located in the fuse block the hole purpose of a fuse is in case the wire gets cut and it touches any metal and arcing .. the fuse then will pop preventing the current from flowing and damaging any other electrical hope this helps .

i would go with an alpine head unit .. really good sound output and simple. also it as an Ipod interface i have an alpine and i love it ! its my favorite brand for head units.

some of the decks have a emergency wire hook up . so when u are driving the screen will go off on less u park the car and put the e-brake on, make sure this wire is hooked up properly .

so... anyone ? any suggestions ? or am i ok with these numbers?

ok so im helping a buddy of mine build a sub box for his truck its a regular cab F-150 the sub is a 12" TE model treo sub it has for ported specs from their website: 1.6 cu ft net ,16sq in vent, 18.5 in long, F3=31HZ so i design a wedge box with the dimensions of : Height = 13.5" , width= 40.25" , upper depth = 7" , lower depth = 8.5" he wants it tune to 31Hz so i came up with these dimension for the ports: two 2" ports on each end about 5 in long know i really not sure if this is right or not was wondering if someone could give me there opinion. i dont have a box building program so i did this all my hand just some math work. thanks for your time!

well thats the same measurements i got , but i guess i was more talking about compared to the specs the treo website gives out . im just wondering if the setup looks accurate or do i need to make some adjustments ?

if you put the model number of each amp we could prob help with actual rms power that each amp can do oh and my opinion that sony 1000 is junk , if its the same amp im thinking about , it really only puts out like 200 rms or something like that

man looking awsome!!! i really like this build! keep up the great work!

that looks so nice!! thank you jacob for posting the pics! and all the hard work you do for excellent customer service !!!

im not mush of a box designer but what do you guys think ? 2- SA-8's on 2 cubes , 1 32 hz slotted port ran by one sae1200D v.2?

just make sure your DMM wires are hooked up right , the black wire to the com slot , and the red wire to the Volt and ohm reading slot and not the Amp. slot. then just run a quick test. grab a 9 volt batt and test it to see if its giving you a good reading after you run your test , and everything is working good , set your DMM to the ohm setting ( if it don't say ohm on it, it would be the 8 on its side) then grab the sub with nothing connected to it, and on one of the set of terminals connect + to + and - to -

yeah my deck is the cda-9885 with the ipod wire and i can control my i touch strait from my deck . i love that about it !!

alpine all the way for me !! just my opinion put i love my alpine and puts out the best quality sound of any other HU that i have own !

im going to have to agree that you need one DMM. i dont even do that mush car audio , and i have 3 of them ! in my opinion if you own a car, you should have a DMM. not only that put you can use a DMM to check something as simple as a AA Batt. i know i have before!

and i like the red one on this

i really like the way these look alot very clean

man Frostedflakejake thats like some master yoda stuff !! jk no but really i also sometimes have some trouble sleeping , one of my buddies really has this problem i did some research on this a while back and it talk about different things that may trigger the reason why people have trouble sleeping some of this things include the food you eat , it can effect the way you fall asleep also one really good one is lighting , like having a tv or bathroom, or lamp light on , they say it effects our internal clock and makes our body feel that its day time instead of night and wish in turn wont make you tired . so it tells you to make it as dark as possible , with little to no light at all . it may take a while for the body to get used to it , so would have to do it consistently. also drinking a glass of water right before bed.

so im going to start this off with the type of car i have its a 95 mazda millenia s this would be the start of my future big install i purchased a stinger svmb volt meter my goal was to make it look as factory as possible , and since the car does not come with a factory volt reading, if i ever sell it this can be a added feature, so this is why i am wanting to make it look factory. so 1st came figure-ing out the location in the dash so after careful thinking decided the best possible location would be in the upper left hand corner of the dash this is wer the factory alarm light is located and since i dont have a factory alarm is a empty spot and perfect location for my new meter so then i took the meter apart and soldered a wire-ing harness to make it easy to remove if need be. then i adjusted the meter to match my electrical and installed it on to the dash. so after all of this and installing everything back on this is my end result ..........

i used some really big pliers , and some really hard hand pressure

as long as u have a fuse by your battery you should be fine and that block will work great

nice looking 8 still cant wait till i get my sa-8's but maybe this sub would work well in my boat !

man AWSOME BUILD!!! so clean looks very , very good !! keep up the good work! hope to see more pics!
