    setup wrong or upgrade to xcon?

    Are you smelling burning coil, or burning extra glue? It's normal to burn glue the first few times you push a subwoofer hard.

    raising my db's

    I THINK I GOT AROUND 3.54CU/FT YOU THINK THAT A BIGGER BOX WILL DO BETTER JOB OR MORE DB'S 1) Stop yelling or die. 2) A larger enclosure increases efficiency, making more pressure with less power input. You also take the risk of mechanical failure. question, if larger = less power require does MORE power = less cubics? sorry if that is a dumb question if it is i WILL DIE lol Generally with less air volume it will take more power input to achieve the same volume.

  10. Crossfire puts a nice little sticker on one of the screws you need to remove the amp cover, take if off and your warranty is void. The XP amplifiers have a 7 year warranty so take advantage of it.

    You should be tuning to 56 Hz then. i always though you tune LOWER then your cars RE (resonant frequency) and tune lower by about 4-6hz~~ good to knwo thanks for the heads up! It depends, there is no way to find out till you test.

    what screws

    It doesn't make a difference. It may be harder to put them in but it's still easy. I found the easiest way is to drill your pilot hol, put the T-nut in as far as you can ans put the bolt in with a washer in between it and the wood and tighten the bolt, put a dab of wood glue on the case of the -nut and it'll stay put pretty well.

    Worst Movie You've Ever Seen

    Saw is actually a great series if you understand it, and have an open mind. I thought Napoleon Dynamite was funny, but only because I'm actually FROM Idaho, and I've bene to Preston where the movie was filmed, they are all inbred goat fuckers. They are all actually like that in Southern Idaho.

    what screws

    Resin, epoxy, or glue the T-nut into the wood as well.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    AMEN. I am a Young Bull, Sean is an old Bull. Beside's I don't Know any other way, I guess it come's from upbringing. ie work ethic installed young. That's VERY true, I'm glad my mamma whooped me into shape! She'd kick my ass to this day if I didn't perform my best I assume you've seen Ferris Buellers' Day Off. Cameron's parents and mine are similar, except that I grew up somewhat poor or at least lower middle class. We had to work for everything. Parents owned a Drycleaners which is sort of like slave labor and I've put in more than 30hrs to work since I was 11. Tough love indeed. I somewhat feel sorry for my son, but then realize that might just be what it takes to turn out okay and hopefully to turn this country around. Its in a downward spiral right now which sucks. PLEASE don't make me move to Canada. That's what it takes if you want to be happy ans successful I guess.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Im pretty sure i can fix everything disconnected with some solder. I just didn't know where that one terminal looking thing went. Its a Sound Storm 1Fd2500. Are there only missing parts ? Weird... There's no missing parts that I'm aware of , the parts that are there are just broke and disconnected. From the heat i guess. Just going by parts visibly broken is a recipe for spending money on parts. Lost of things can go wrong and show no sign. Parts don't "disconnect" because of the heat. Yeah, solder won't just melt from normal operating temperatures in an amplifier. Adrian I think it's time for a basic amplifier repair thread!
