so now it went from protection light on to not on to blinking... Seriously, if u do not know how the subs are wired, do not know how to use a dmm.. then i cannot help you. Get someone who can and i will be able to relate.

and no high output alt.. hmm... What is your stock alternator rated at? Also, typical causes is damage to the power supply... Not giving you a definite answer but leaning towards it. What sub(s) were you powering and measure ohm value on DMM on the speaker wire that was going into the amp and tell me what it reads.

yea, i can get red and i think green but i'd have to order a bulk load of them.

mine do nto have a remote wire, it's self powered off the power line it's measuring. It also auto-senses light in the environment as well. When it gets dark outside, the display will automatically dim so it's not blinding to read. These meters pull a maximum of 0.3A under full load and 0.17A at night.

yep, he's almost right... Several months ago, i posted, not on this forum, that i would be ordering a bulk order of these voltmeters. I specifically said that the users can purchase them individually out of the country for cheaper than going through me but here is the breakdown- The company i purchase them through urges not to order them individually as they are frequently lost in customs and urge to purchase in larger quantities. The actual price for a single voltmeter is $12 shipped. It will take 21-28days for you to receive it if you purchase out of the country. There are MANY imitators on ebay of these meters but only 1 stands out. these have no POT inside of them. These use lots of internals to ensure they run ice cold. Accuracy is 0.08% within 3 min and can read up to 30vDC There was a rush of these meters before because nobody had any true 18v meters until now... So, i'm not tryin to scam anybody into thinking they are getting a helluva deal. My business does not evolve around this market, hehe. It's something i just have on hand and to prevent me from breaking below even, the price sold in the usa must be doubled to take into account processing fees, shipping and taxes. that's the whole shabang.

i'll be there.. but do not know if i'm competing or spectating... If i'm spectating, i'll bring some sunblock, LMAO. If i'm competing.. i'll bring my 1st place trophy

Saw Thor last night... While it definitely has some very nice special effects which some would only excel in an IMAX capable theater and the fact that there is surprisingly a lot of comedy involved with this film, the "superhero" part of the movie is lacking greatly.... When i go to a Marvel comic movie, i'm assuming i'm going to see some "Super-natural powers" from the main character(s). There was actually very short scenes where the user sees this... This movie actually reminds me of Spiderman. Unless there is sequels to be made from Thor... it is wise to probably only watch this one and move on... The problem with this theory is Avengers is coming May 2012 so i highly doubt a sequel, let alone an effective sequel to Thor would ever work. Conclusion- either see it full blown in IMAX or just wait for it to come on disc.. It's an interesting story but the majority of the movie was focused on Thor being on Earth and leaning more towards the comedy side of things rather than showing the history or really how powerful Thor can really be rather than the short 30sec or less scenes... On a positive note.. DO NOT leave once the credits roll.. Wait until the very end for the secret scene at the end.... For those that have watched the Avengers trailer, there is a reason why a certain person is narrating in this trailer

i can hear it now... Stefan has a bunch of SSA stickers to............. Put On(the song, lol) Stefan is down with SSA.. down with SSA cuz his stickers are.... Put On!

Wait wait Wait a minute...... Just because Mark left AZ doesn't mean that nobody is left, lol.. SSA has all kinds of AZ guys there... U better be makin friends and usin that comet chat on the bottom to help find u some 3min extra hands when the time comes to install this thing in ur car.

Actually there is/was no member controversy here so no need to start some hysterical movement on the forum, lol.

don't tell ur enclosure designer the specs and then... If i remember correctly.. I've been down that road with users comments before... :cough :cough David's IAK ass.. :cough :cough TeamRamrod mutha......... You better make sure before Andrew starts gluing stuff together and it be too big to fit.... (something she'd love to say but won't help u here )

the only way i could ever see a drop in test actually being successful in a way to measure which sub was louder on the meter is if the box being used WAS the official box that would permanently be used in said vehicle. ^And of course the results would ONLY hold true for THAT install in THAT car. It's been known that sub swapping is a no no comparison method just by itself. this is why you may see many people say Sub A was louder than Sub B then somebody else will do the exact same test and it be the other way around. Amp swapping is another no no too. Battery swapping.. eh.. not as many variables but still would effect battery comparison's greatly if a battery had any extra use over another one. I believe the goal as to why which one is louder, if i'm right, is to attempt, within the testing limits in this thread, to show that a user need not spend the extra money by going with DD if loud on the meter is your goal.

what's this goin in?

Ok, let me say something. Ok i'm done.. Nah, ok here it is- My buddy had a DD9500 sub, do not know what revision the motor was and a BTL ufo motor. Both were 18s. Did a direct sub swap. Box- 4.5cuft NET, single 8" flare port tuned to 42hz. Powered by 2 SA Saz3ks @2ohm strapped. DC Power 270A alt and 3 Batcap2000s. On a burp- BOTH subs did exactly the same score- 152.7db However, the differences were great when the power was lowered. On lower power, the BTL put out a considerable higher sustained output than the DD did. also, the BTL was more musical or should i say more enjoyable to listen to on music than the 9500 was. So his conclusion was- BTL won hands down. Sounded better on music, more smooth. Was more efficient on less power. Able to produce same score as DD sub without the extra money it cost to own one. Obviously, the DD may not like this box but that's all the test offered.

i dont know the internals of the xb... If u REALLY interested... Go grab a tape measure and drive to a toyota dealership. Tell the salesman u like the xB and plan on buyin it but u need to measure the cargo area for your own project work. Come back and tell us the dimensions.. or u should know urself by then.

yes and places like HD or Lowes only carry up to 12" diameter too.

biggest ported design u can get back there is just a hair over 5cuft. If u insist on 7cuft, get an xb I would have chose that over my tC but at the time i bought my car, the newest xb's engine was only 101hp and i knew that was gonna be a problem with my high 150db installs to carry the weight around.

disconnect all three batts for about 10min, then measure voltage on all batts. they should all be 13v. Re-measure in an hour to make sure they are still reading the same... If any batt is sagging below 13v, charge it independently.

Just check your news stations... Osama Bin Laden is no more...

now, my son, we can get back to car audio, lol.

lol, i know. If it is fake.. I guess we'll go Call of Duty on some ass over there... I can see it now- Michael Moore presents- Call Of Duty- Black Osama Ops

sorry, i know u was waitin for me to make this topic for ya, lol

Dwayne Johnson.. Yea but he had a suspicion something was up when they just left without any hesitation when he told them too... He already knew he was in some shit... But.. while he was there, he did kill that guy and took out a bunch of corrupt police at the same time.

i got ur answers i believe. she's alive because they only showed how Dom thought she died... See.. everybody thinks she died but nobody ever seen her body and didnt actually show how she died.. just a vision. Now as to why? Dom wanted to part from her because as in the 4th one, he said he didnt want her around when he got busted. Well.. he's been on the run ever since.... NOW, since he has all this money... if he knew she was alive... he would be in heaven in other words.. so why would she fake her death? For the same reason dom wanted to part from her. But she didnt do it for just dom, she did it to\for everybody so it could be as real as possible.... Only unanswered question is.. who else is involved in her disappearance? In Part 4, someone's body is in that casket.... it's not hers. Or... At that time, they were desperate to find and bring torreto in so they could have also staged the funeral.. Nobody is in the casket... If that's true, then the bureau would have been involved in relocating her OR at least know her approx whereabouts so they would know she would never show up again during that timeframe... this theory is a little sketchy because Brian is currently working with the FBI and if they did anything to\for her, he should\would have known about it especially since they were racing here and there... Why would he never tell Dom where she is? Unless the FBI didnt trust Brian either and hid it from both Brian and Dom?

I'll tell you anyways... Letty is alive ...
