    Frankenwoofer - TCON style

    From past experience, they need a fair amount of break in to get them loose. They feel like cardboard

    Amp rack question

    What car? Maybe you can re-route a couple of A/C vents. Some vans and SUV's have rear A/C units too. That would be the cheapest/easiest imo.

    Jacob (New Amps)

    I just figured why not ask since you're looking into the SAE-1500D It'd be nice to have a Z version of the 1000D

    Looking for a few bass racers

    I was kind of thinking the same thing. It would be more impressive to throw a shit ton of power at the ICON and achieve HUGE results from a single driver than multiple imo. I've been mulling over the idea of competing. With Mark in the same state as me I bet I could get my act together and make a pretty big splash in the dB water.

    Install: Line Out Converter

    If you disconnect the RCA's from the amp and the subs still hum.. then you already found your second problem. It's obviously a bad ground (could also be a bad amp, but that's pretty unlikely). You want to find a grounding point that is as close to 0 ohms as possible (you can check with a DMM). As far as the LOC getting a poor signal, whenever I used one I always tapped off of one speaker and then used little wire jumpers to get signal to the other channel of the LOC. Just always worked better that way. I can't really explain why. If I had to guess I would say some sort of electrical cancellation.

    A little question

    Moved to computers On another note, if the amplifier in the logitech system is only rated at 8 ohms, you can be pretty sure you're going to cook it no matter how you wire that sub up. And if iirc that logitech sub is an 8", not a 10". So you would need to build a new box as well and transfer all the components.

    Upgrading alternator

    Wasn't talking about you bud. I was referring to the people at the shop. Take a chill pill.

    End of 0.5 ohm coverage

    Well, one I never argue with Jacob, two, i don't wanna risk my integrity. So with that said, to run 2 amps at .5 ohm or even 2 amps at 1 ohm. What kinda of electrical should I have, Im lookign to upgrade next car to more then one 2400 and more then one 15"... HO Alt, and 2 runs of 1/0 and 2 2400s should be plenty right? Thats a lot of weight looks like im getting an SUV =) Jacob mentioned that the 1500D can pull 220A at full bore (I think at 1ohm.. maybe it was .5). You need a 2400 for each amp and yeah two runs of 1/0awg (two for EACH battery) from a minumum 200A alt.

    Upgrading alternator

    wow, they just let any one work in car repair shops these days don't they. Some people are completely clueless as to what really happens with an alternator. You're right about the regulator, besides.. amps won't fry the car's electrical (the car only uses what it needs). If the Regulator goes haywire and sends 18+ volts through the system.. that can cause problems.

    Frankenwoofer - TCON style

    Technically that's wrong too.. I think we can safely call this the T-CON.

    Looking for a New Vehicle

    Not to brag my own truck any.. but the 05-08 Tacomas can take up to an 8" mid in the door plus a 2" tweet. You could easily go three-way with the cavities that are in the panel. Another nice thing is the Access Cab (extended essentially) and the Double cab. The double cab can fit subs and amps behind the back seats while the access cab can take a massive ported box in the rear section if you don't care about passengers (hey, its a truck). There are pics of my truck here
