    What is your favorite breakfast?

    A pre-breakfast cappuccino, obviously, followed by: A pancetta, spinach, & scallop benedict (homemade Hollandaise, poached egg on a English Muffin.) I integrated Dylan's baked potato idea in my hasbrowns and made fresh potato pancakes with some loaded toppings integrated. Matt's Christmas Chile idea I turned into Kiwi slices topped with Pomegranate seeds. Super festive and pretty looking I made fresh Mimosa's with some Roederer and Clementines that I processed through the Vitamix for OJ. Blueberry, blackberry, mango, & banana smoothies. And for desert a Breve with some Panettone bread. Figured it rounded out the holiday meal. Thanks for the ideas guys! Aww...those smoothies sound delicious I see you went with the smoothies, the rest of the breakfast just sounds delicious

    Which Amp?

    Better customer service, does rated power at 12 volts unlike the Rockford and the Rockfords are current hogs (you will need a better electrical to supply one of those to the equivalent of that in a Sundown Amp).

    Big 3 upgrade?

    Naw it doesnt make it harder just have to get longer wire so your wire from battery positive terminal to alternator positive terminal. I didnt do mines because my car's factory wire was 4 gauge and my battery is in the trunk, when I get an HO Alternator then I will upgrade the wire.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Got a wal-mart gift card and cant think of what I want to get, I was thinking about buying Hangover since Im a movie buff. I mainly like Comedies, the stupid funny movies and was just wondering is it that funny and worth the newly released dvd price (dont mind paying for it if it is). Thanks for input

    Where do I buy Remote wire?

    Seriously, what model? I use Krystal RCA Kables, and didn't notice.. I use the KnuKonceptz Klarity kables, the blue ones and they have the remote wire in between them.

    New Setup, Starting from Zero. Tips Welcomed!

    When I look at knobs like those (dont take this as being accurate or the way to do it) but I just subtract the two numbers that the knob has on it, then divide the difference by two. For example Sundown Audio uses 35-300Hz for the LPF, so 35-300= 265 /2= 132.5 would be the halfway point and the quarter mark would be 66.25. So somewhere in between the 25% and 50% turn on the frequency knob should be the region, from there on down (play with it till you get to your liking.

    I love Sundown Audio!

    You can order a set of new screws from Jacob and choose either head design you want.

    saz 4500 pricing?

    If I was you I would just buy two SAZ-2000D used(maybe from Jacob or db-r with warranty). Around 900-1000$ and you safe money for batteries, alternator and cables! Smart man, its not like your gonna miss out on those extra 500 watts unless you just want to deal with one amp.

    saz 4500 pricing?

    Nobody knows what the price will be at the end of January except for Jacob, best bet is to email him. thanks jaycee man im hoping around 1500 thats all i got budgeted for the amp.. Shouldnt be no more than that, hopefully.

    nightshades rms?

    From my understanding the nightshades are being phased out for the new version that is coming out with that amount of power, if I was you I would just wait and get the rest of my system together. But if you want to get some version 1's now if Jacob has any to customize, you will have to talk to him and ask him he would be the only person to know the in depth details about it. [email protected] IMO they dont need that much power but if you insist then go ahead, they will be pass loud as shit on the 1500 rms that is recommended. Dont think that putting those extra features on there and getting a SAZ-4500D and thinking your gonna be balls out loud. Probably wouldnt notice the difference if someone had two nightshades on a SAZ-3000 or 3500D in the output but maybe the meter might catch it but that is all install dependent also.
  15. What test is that? Oh yeah I will definitely let you know about the Beyma's, what was the install issue in the one's you heard and what didnt you like about it and the sound?

    Batcap Issue

    Well a long time is any long sustainable time that you wont be driving your car such as season or something like a month. A week, day or couple or hours is no where considered a long time. Most batteries you are supposed to do this anyway but it doesnt have an effect like the Batcap will if stayed hooked up.

    nightshades rms?

    Yeah Jacob does do some customizing to them if you want one that can handle that for daily.

    Batcap Issue

    You can do it, it is not a problem (just dont leave it grounded to the chassis if you dont use the car for along time. I had mine for about 3 years grounded to the chassis with no problems.

    Where do I buy Remote wire?

    Yep the only use for that wire is to turn amps on/off. Why don't you use 1/0 for you Sundown? He is only running it at 2 ohms.

    Team DB Units Di-annaCricket/Team IA 39 bassracer build

    Cant wait till this is done. Whats going in there?
  24. Hifonics = overrated Is that the rms rating of thoes amp or the max power rating?? thats the RMS rating yeah i remember hearing they were overratted thats why i went with the 2600 one instead of the 2400 i figure they should at least do 2400 max.... but in the back of my head i believe if i can feed them enough power theyll do rated if not near...........because ive seen one of my 2608ds murder my 2 treo 15's with ease I would expect 2200-2300 watts out of them if your voltage isnt dropping.
