    The Towncar (with updates)

    The finish doesnt look blotchy in person. I dont know why it shows up like that on camera. My hands got dirty because the adheasive is so runny. The paper is piss poor and continued to tear so I would have to start it agian. Second Skin is just a superior product.

    How to make 1 1/2 din opening a Double Din

    I might be blind, but that looks like a single din. There looks like there is room for expansion but it will be tight. However that may be to your advantage.

    How to determine amplifier output

    In your case and osciliscope, and the two RMS meters is the route to go. If you just want to know aparent power (what 90% of these RMS tests you see on the web are) then skip the osciliscope except for gain setting.

    How to make 1 1/2 din opening a Double Din

    Be really good with fiberglass and body work and you can make it look stock. It could just be a simple cut depending on the vehicles. If you could get us a pictuer or at least tell us what car it is we might be able to hlep you more.

    I'm hopeing it does. But the adheasive is very liquidy and it just doesnt justify the extra $0.20 per square foot in my opinion. I finally heard some music from it today. The battery was really low though. The current battery just isnt holding a charge. He is getting a new one once I finish.

    Well I will not be purchaseing from RAAMatt agian. Extremely inferior to Second Skin IMO, much more dirty, and as liquidy as the adheasive is at 70 degrees am praying it will stay on at 110+. I do not reccomend it at all.

    How to determine amplifier output

    An LS1 is an LS1, no point in putting the car on a chassis dyno. Car weight, rotating inertia, and driver skill will all affect it's straight line perfomrance.

    How to determine amplifier output

    Good point sean.
  12. That Hifonics is A/B... 500/1 is D...their efficency is probably right about the same, Hifonics may have the upper hand. For a class D amp the 500/1 has piss poor efficency.

    port question...

    Aero outside = better flow. It also allows you to put the port output furter away from the speaker which can help to better put front and back waves in phase. It also allows for easy tuning changes with out removeing the port ends. There is really no point in putting a slot port outside of the box. IMO.
  14. I'm a Hifonics guy for budget amps. But if your electrical can handle the piss poor efficency of the 500/1 and you can get a working 500/1 for that price I'd go JL. You might be able to dump it for a little extra cash in the end.

    welding wire?

    2 1/0 > 1 2/0 if your extra connections are low resistance.

    How to determine amplifier output

    Osciliscope True RMS Amp meter True RMS volt meter or True RMS amp meter True RMS volte meter Stable load that doesnt induce current phase change. Osciliscopes range in price. Osciliscope cards for computers run for about $150 and a little more for good software. Stand alone units can be had for $200-500 used and new they can be several thousand. True RMS amp meters run around $100 and I reccomend Fluke Highly. True RMS volt meters can be had in almost any decent DMM. Good DMM's usually cost over $50. Agian I reccomend Fluke. For a stable load you can purchase them, or get a bunch non inductive 25w cremic resistors (like $1.50 each), wire them to the load you need, then submerge them in a bucket of distilled watter after cleaning them with acetone so the water doesnt get contaminated with electrolytes.

    Must-see Movies

    Same here. Really liked Gladiator, so I'm hoping this will be as endearing. I liked Troy, well any movie about Greek and Roman Mythology or that era of empires and wars. It is part of the reason I took Latin instead of spanish or french. I'm going to be in J-Ville weekend after this comming. They have a pretty good iMax...I hope they are playing it.

    Weldingsupply.com vs Ebay chitty Pic of a home made Y cable Working on getting the tweeters flushed I hate dash boards Pre-CB specialty molding clay. Instead of non hardening modleing clay I got something else. I will clue you in on that later. Beleive it or not there is almost 3sqft right on and around the baffle there. Thoes doors are flimsy like aluminum foil.
