The Difference Between Copper and Copper Clad Aluminum Cable
Maddenkid2011 replied to Duran's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
It tells you in the description of the product if you read it. I knew it was the OFC but the strands on the ground wires look more like the CCA example picture than the copper example picture -

Some people don't mind paying a little more for better quality stuff. I pay very good money for my gear, because I expect it to perform at a very high rate, for a long time. I don't mind spending more money on my amps than you have in your whole system. In fact, the majority of my gear, in individual pieces, cost more then your whole system. The only thing by itself that didn't is my sub amp, which happens to be a Cadence ZRS amp. When you stop and think about it, that says a lot. I have $600 in subs, $900 in front stage amp, $1000 in front components, and a $150 Cadence sub amp. Did you catch that? If someone spends that kind of money in an SQ system and buys a $150 sub amp, that speaks volumes about the quality of that amp. Perhaps it isn't worth it to you, but to me it really is. I have exactly what I want, it sounds amazing, looks great, delivers a clean, pure sound, and it is extremely dependable. Perhaps people just want nicer things. Just because you can't afford it, doesn't mean that others can't, and it doesn't mean they shouldn't. Cheap isn't better... in fact, it is usually a sign of cost cutting measures... or a possible concern over long term dependability. Also, not a single amp listed will break the budget at all. Everybody's suggestions fell right within, or just a shade over the OP's set budget. Nobody is recommending anything based on a name, the above suggested amplifiers are all really solid performers at great prices. There is no stigma associated with any brand listed, they are all small company units. Nobody is recommending JL because of their big name status, they are recommending amplifiers they use, or have seen in use, that offer rated or better, very reliable, and dependable power. No offense, but I would never put an Audiopipe amp in my car. I have never seen any testing done on the amplifier at all, and as far as reliability, it hasn't been out long enough to prove that it is reliable and dependable, and frankly it is pretty dirty power. Besides, your sig says the gear is coming soon... so I have to ask, are you basing your suggestion on first hand knowledge, or just blindly suggesting gear? Finally, your opinion on the matter is not the only one that counts. In fact, seeing as how you recommend the same amp all the time, it is important that the OP realize this and consider the suggestion accordingly. This is a forum with varying opinions, and experiences. There is no "/thread" like you suggest. And as far as the dickhead comment; You might need to grow up a little. It is about that time. If you are old enough to have your driver's license, you should really act like it. Well said Mine would of been a tad more futile Audioque is a very quality brand, can't go wrong. The remote gain control and clipping indicator is definitely a plus. -
Thanks! Got our seats on E-bay. Leather you will have to search a little. LEDS from here http://www.oznium.com/prewired-leds The prewired are great to work with and draw very little power. LED modules are super nice Prewired superflux are very bright Check out their site, prices are very fair, shipping is cheap and quick, customer service is excellent! I'm interested in these LED's. How exactly do u wire them? The 5mm LEDS come prewired(+ & -) you just wire them parallel just like you would wire subs. When usind the 3 and 5mm prewired LEDS you can use a bunch, they draw 20mA each. Go to the site http://www.oznium.com/prewired-leds and check out the customer questions section on that page and it will answer most all questions you might have. They offer many different types of LEDS for all kinds of install spaces. Hope this helps. Ok, so i would just run it to my battery right? and would 18 gauge speaker wire work for all my wiring needs? (I have a shitload of that) And btw, i was checking out oznium for about an hour last night and their products look really solid. Glad i read ur post. Yes connect to battery + & - May want to think about a switch of some sort for on/off control. 18 gauge wire should be fine. We have about 25-30 leds on one circuit at this point off one of the switches in the center console. We have been very happy with Oznium for their products and service. Glad I could post something to help. Good Luck with your light mods!! Thanks for the help. Just bought 8 red LED's and the red rocker switch because of you. Awesome!!!!! Put up some pics when you get them in I'd like to see them. You will be happy with them and will want more they are addictive especially once you get the reactions people have! Will do! But im definitely not looking forward to wiring these lol

Maddenkid2011 replied to wafsman's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
You are aware that there are other amplifiers out there, right? You need to expend your horizons a bit. To the OP, I like the Cadence ZRS amp. I have been using their amps for a decade now, and they always do better than rated and are exceptionally reliable... I still run a ~ 10 year old Z7000HC (1500@1 class AB) on my Brahma in my hot rod. The ZRS amps are very solid amps, and I am actually using a ZRS6000D on my subs in my daily driver right now. It puts out rated, and then some, has a nice small footprint and doesn't even get warm. The output is quite clean too. I am aware there are other amps out there, thank you Mr. Obvious. Point is, I know for a fact that the AP series amps from Audiopipe are solid and reliable at a great price. The OP asked for suggestions on amps that would be in his price range and work with the Xcon which is rated at 1750 rms, hence I suggested the AP18001D. Being cheap (~$190 shipped), proven to do rated power, and proven to be reliable I concluded this was an acceptable solution to his dilemma. You are aware there are other things to do on the net besides troll and be a dick, right? You need to expand your horizons a bit. Who pissed in your cheerios? Calm down Mr. audiopipe nuthugger. Edit: P.S. you cant "OH NOES!!!1" yourself, that's just really gay. -

Mystery Prototype? Whats the bolt down ring?

So my friend bought a Lanzar MaxP1200 (for some reason) and he proceeded to changes his (3) 30A fuses to (3) 40A fuses because he said that the bigger the fuse the better. Now, in my head it seems like the amp was rated at 90A for a reason but i dont know shit about fuses. So, by changing the fuses, is he screwing things up?

Loud and low for less that $150.

Fuse Question
Maddenkid2011 replied to Maddenkid2011's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / Electrical
That's what I tried telling him, he's an idiot. He's one of those friends that act like they know everything and you just agree with them befcause you dont feel like arguing. -
I would suggest finding a way to make them. I guess i'll have to lol Figure you net volume and plug it into a calculator and see what it is.. If you want it to be tuned a little higher, take a inch or two off of the port then. Now recalculate the net volume (will be larger than before), and plug it into a calculator. If its tuned too high for your liking, do the same process, just take off less port length in the beginning Alright, now do u think (1) 48x96 sheet will suffice?
-
Would using the SSA Icon 15" small ported design work for my BL? Icon 15" small ported design How would i go about changing the tuning to 33-35 Hz?

South florida is probably the farthest you could be away from Fi lol Its definitely not gonna be no "next day" thats for sure

I'm thinking about buyin that FOCKIOROCKETGAT CAPASIDER, i've been in need of a "capasider". Once I get that i can finally run my 10,000 watt amp efficiently.

If 1 sheet of 3/4" MDF is 48x96, will I need more than 1 sheet? Just tryin to save a ridiculous $30

Help please, small rip on foam ring on fi sub
Maddenkid2011 replied to DeezyDee's topic in Fi Technical
Is the BL fully lodead? and yes it can handle the 2000d if your very careful with it. Btw, im pretty sure u can't recone to different models. That would include a different magnet and motor. -
