talk to UPS. tell them to ask their driver to verify what address he delivered it to. check with neighbors and houses on your street that have almost similar addresses. I had this problem with DHL once.

You got this from me on CA. I didn't hear any problems when I free aired it before shipping to you. Everything looks fine as well. I even listened to it in the previous owner's car.

Wait, so is the REM wire connected straight to the battery instead of the remote turn on from the head unit?

real nice.

March 2nd 2009?? Not to call anyone out here but I have emailed DC Power twice a week ago with no response. Call them. That is the best way to contact them.

When did you become a member here, Kyle?

ported

Just trying to get the actual name out and not have it so generic sounding. lol.

Mark, its a SPL-Lab meter not SPL meter. hehe.

Don, I see you lurking. What's your insight lol.

turn it down and it also depends on your box.

The SPL-Lab meters are very affordable and just as accurate as the termlab.

what all have you used?

mach5 spl 12 in a grand am 3.5 gross 2.5 net tuned to 42hz

That's how gangstas talk. It cull 2 b re-tar.

This isn't the way it's supposed to be. Its supposed to be fired back with port on the driver side. We'll see which is louder when he gets back with a bigger amp.

You must have looked at garbage high output alternators. No alternator from dc power will have lower ratings in any parts of the rpm bandwidth compared to stocks. However, this was the case when I tried a rewound stock alt to high output. I got about half the output at idle compared to stock. This was also the case with an ebay boss load alternator. I would dip into the low 12s with stock alternator and an extra deka in the trunk with just a 3k amp, idle or 2k rpm. I don't even get below 13.5 with all lights and accessories on with the 3k amp at IDLE. These are all read from the battery in the trunk.

Don't get a smaller pulley without contacting DC Power, they design and put the alternator together for your vehicle to work with your vehicle. My car couldn't get a smaller pulley or the engine would bog down too much at idle even with low loads. Make sure you have a belt with good grip and make sure you have it tight. I had this problem too and I just had to tighten the belt. Some belts will loosen after the first month or so and you need to tighten it again to be tight for sure. Talk to Rob and he will help you out.

looks like chrome for marketing.

why is that? why is it so special?

more than likely bottoming out. it doesn't take a lot of power to bottom out a sub free aired.

what sub, amp power, and box size and tuning? You may be bottoming it out. Do you hear this pop when the sub is extended really far inward?

really doubt your score goes up any with different speaker wires.
