    97 Maxima Build Log

    Are those the 7" seas that are in your sig? How do they sound IB like that? I'm thinking about doing that with my rear Tang Bands and Sundown E8s. My front set will be E8's in the doors and tang bands and tweets in kickpods, sealed.

    How did you come up with the name "Sundown"?

    I'm only 42 so I still got a few years left H'mmm, 42 and I'm installing 4200 watts into my car, thats almost poetic.

    Adding a cu. ft. to my box

    You reminded me of my last system many years ago with 4 M&M Godfather 15's and a Linear Power 3002 at 2ohms stereo so about 150 watts per woofer. One morning I got into the car and turned it on and forgot I had Rush - Tom Sawyer in the CD Player at about 3/4 volume. It about made me chit my pants so I know what you mean about "impact"

    97 Maxima Build Log

    I started on the sub enclosure today. I only had a couple of hours to work on it so I got the bottom and back done. My other new saw. My work area with my dirty ass car in the background. Man I need to wash and wax that thing. The sun was really beating down today, freaking 85 degrees today. It was hard to get a good picture since the birch was really reflecting the light. Thats probably going to be it until Monday. My daughters 4th birthday is tomorrow and I have stuff to do all weekend, so I'll get back on it after the weekend.
  9. And its not true wattage. It puts out MORE !!!

    Yea, only 2 reasons I wanted it was 1: Time delay is supposed to be easier to setup with the C701, and 2: Bling Bling, love the display !!

    Hey, thanks for the vote of confidence. I gotta say i had butterflies when I started cutting since I have not done it in so long, but after I got started, I got that "now this is fun" feeling back.

    SAZ-3500D Pre-Order

    That is a good problem, right? In this economy, thats a damn good problem!!! If I find a job before the end of the month, I might get one !!
  13. Are you thinking of something like this: 1/0 to 4 gauge reducer

    SAX100.4 RCA outputs.... how do they work?

    So, whatever you have CH 1+2 crossed over at, that is what you will see on the outputs? Just want to make sure for my own good :-)
  16. Great EQ, just have fun finding one.

    Ported Box Question

    On Precision Ports website, their instructions link states that their 6" Precision Port can be 1" from the inside wall, but they recommend keeping it as far away as possible. Myself, I would try to keep it at least 3 to 6" away from it, but I'm no expert. I'm sure someone with more port experience will chime in.

    Got Laid Off

    So I buy all this stuff and bam, got laid off. Oh well, free time to BUILD !!!! As bad as it feels to have your job eliminated after being at the same place for 12 years, maybe its time for a change. I got a decent severance package (I'm paid until 9/30/09) WOO HOO. I'm going to fix some things around the house and try to get my chit installed/built into the car. As long as I get a job within the next month, I'll be real happy, because then I'll pretty much have a $32k check to deposit in the bank of extra cash, that would be sweet (wife says new kitchen). Anyway, hopefully I'll have some build pics up soon. The network engineer formally known as Bob.
  19. I can only comment on the customer service at www.dcpowerinc.com. Its pretty much like dealing with Jacob at Sundown. Rob is the owner and you can talk to him directly at the number on their website. He talked me through a couple of problems I was having installing my MLA module I bought with my 250a alt while he was driving his kids home from school, now thats customer service !!! I have no experience with the other vendors so I can't comment on their service. but you won't be sorry with DC Power.

    Got Laid Off

    I hope you fair better than I did. At least my severance is good, but I need to find something before it runs out.

    D*** FUSE!

    I'm soldering all my ring terminals on, them babys aren't coming off !!! Just go to home depot, get a bernzomatic torch with the thin flame and some solder. I hold the cable with some vice grips (not too tight) and just fit the terminal on the wire. Hit the back of the ring with the torch and once it heats up good, just start feeding the solder into the wire until it fills up.

    are u running active or passive

    The build I'm working on will be active all around. I'm using the crossovers on my SAX-100.4s.
  23. I finally got my DC Power Inc 250amp alternator and switchable MLA module installed. I now have 250amps (140 at idle) available at 15.6 volts sweeeeeeet. I just have to clean up the wires and I'll start a build log with pics. Now I need to run power wires to the trunk and start building the enclosure and kicks.
