PM me the email that you want to use and I will invite you

Welcome, I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I think something happened to your FI Q cause it looks exactly like an Alpline type X.. ;P Just kidding! Honestly reconing is extremely easy if you just take your time and be patient. Watch a few youtube videos and you will surprise yourself when you complete your recone yourself. The key for me was lining up the spacing in the gap to make sure you don't get coil rub right off the bat.

I've had a fully loaded BL and it was no where near the BTL N2. You really didn't specify.. you just said a 2000w RMS replacement.

You mean to tell me you don't have one of those free 50GB box accounts? If not I can send you an invite. Just lemme know. No thank you. I don't host these.. There is a reason why Decaf doesn't either. Well, it's slightly different when you make it public vs private party. I never intended for you to just public link them. I meant for us fellow intrigued folks is all.

I have the same confidence everytime I go to pee I felt the same way as I pulled around the corner to see my trunk popped open and my box with 4 15" RF HX2's missing along with my 2 phoenix gold amps . I got out of car audio for a long while after that, but hell they wanted it more than i did i guess.

Hell yah, us big guys stick together! FFS with me you and Jon we could throw up an SSA tent in no time!

When you get ready to buy an alt. Let me know. I have my Mechman Elite 370 just sitting in the box that came off my 6.0. Best alt out right now in my opinion. Had no issues running 13k and a big battery bank. I'd back this statement. The reason I went ahead and got a Mechman Elite actually.

i think i need a new alt? what kind tho?
nadcicle replied to ncc74656's topic in Mechman High Output Alternators
For what's in your sig it'll be more than needed, but i'd hardly say overkill. No such thing as overkill with a single alt IMO. Now if you were doing a triple alt bracket and running a polk 1k amp on 2 rockford fosgate p2's id probably have a good chuckle. Not knowing what your goal is would be hard to determine any more amperage. For instance, in this case your sig says 1 kicker zx2500 with 4 group 31 batteries. You will be treating those batteries right by getting a great alternator if it's for just daily beating and such. However, if you would have said "Hey I wants all the db's to stay whilst I park and pound with my 4 SP4 18"s on 4 kicker zx2500's". I would mention doing multiple alts and more batts. This will be your best bet IMO -

I will definitely echo myself and say again to make sure you look in to hairpin only if this is the case. Vehicles with extremely low rpm typically will not do well with the older technology. The only way to circumvent low rpm's in most alternator manufacturers eyes was to make the pulley smaller in which case when the alternator is faced with max load you have a much greater chance for belt slippage. Not to mention most car manufacturers never made the alternator for maximum belt wrap to begin with so this ups the chances yet again to lose those much needed amps for our high end systems. -

I personally own a mechman elite. With that being said it works great and haven't had any issues whatsoever. I've also heard good things about Singer and DC. DC you'll be waiting so long that you probably won't own the same vehicle, but i've heard they make quality products. All 3 of these companies have been offering hairpin 6 phase technology and after using it I probably won't switch back. In basic terms what this does is give you the highest amperage at idle and it does it more efficiently and cooler than the older technology. -

head unit decision
nadcicle replied to 12compass's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Another with the x996. I can honestly say that it is one hell of a headunit for sound quality, but it lacks in the active network. This would be the only advantage to getting the 80. I am currently in the middle of going active and now im stuck knowing i am going to be doing a swap soon. Sometimes it pays to just get what you think you might need vs settling. I never thought i'd be switching until I found a good set of horns and now i've been sucked in lol -
I'd personally not get the Alpine's and get something that has already been proven for your application. You obviously know you abused the SA15 and you want to get 2 12's so i'd look in to the E series. I've just heard what the E's are capable of and wouldn't hesitate to pick them over those Alpines any day.

Happy birthday yo!

SPDT Relay contacts strong enough?
nadcicle replied to shizzzon's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
Shizzon, If you find some cheaper ones just make sure to look in to the tech specs on them as I bought about 4 of them once and once I received them they were 10amp open side 50 amp closed side. Apparently these go for much cheaper than a 50/50 and etc. First thing i thought of when you were doing this is to just find an industrial programmable plc that is capable of handling the higher amperage. It'd be pretty neat to have a switchable push button throw to handle all of your ohm swaps i think. -
I need some design help for my box
nadcicle replied to nicholasrhall's topic in SPL & SQ / Fabrication
He said 2 DC Lvl 4's lol I kinda see it. They won't be side by side though. I'm thinking horizontally. They should fit fine Not 4 DC's it's 2 DC lvl4's I think Shizzon would definitely have your answer as far as room goes though. -
Hey you weren't the only one that got burnt. I was walking around like taliban with the shirt wrapping my head and still came back burnt to hell. Still had a helluva time though!
-
* Lays weiner over Shizzon's phone horizontally" Nope.. its definitely 5.5" sir Oh, and Senchez said straddle lol

Holy mother of titty slapping bass. Did his god damn hat just fly off his head?

Definitely room for higher score.

I know you said wall config but what about orientation of the subs and ports? For that matter what make/model of subs and amp?

They are white lettering. It's just that dirty at the moment. Goodyear Wrangler 10-ply -
See I figured you'd find it after i mentioned it to you.

nadcicle replied to Mark LaFountain's topic in Team SSA
Well given the color of your ride I dunno if red would be a choice color. Perhaps turquoise or whale blubber
