[j-roadtatts 1,129]

the no equipmet thing is always a set back. Hurry up and wait.

I shall be tuned in any who's.

[j-roadtatts 1,129]

I just removed my SPR-17S's today, I have had them for over a year. They will sound P-u-u-r-r-r-fect on 100 watts each. You will like them, Where are you mounting the tweeters?

I was thinking in the doors next to the 6.5s but then it might sound muffled from being so low, so i'm thinking my A pillars

[j-roadtatts 1,129]

I had the tweeters in the a-pillars for about 6 months, they would work BEST up there if you can get them on axis. Otherwise I recommend high in the doors.

I only say this because at extremly high volumes they get lost off axis.

Then the doors it is! i'm thinking the arm rest part, as far forward as i can go. Thank you for the heads up

[BanginGMC 23]

Found this on Craigslist for 70.00 bucks, but i got it for 40.00 boo yah!

Would it be worth having it in the install with my PDX 4.100? hmmm...

Shes a little dirty

With some scratches

[j-roadtatts 1,129]

Sweet score! are you going to mount it somewhere you can see it? That would be cool.

As far as your adding a second batt for your highs, you will want the second batt as close to the amp as possible, like 18" or less. Any time you add a battery you are making your alternator work harder, SO make sure to watch your voltage when you first hook it up. IF this is a frame and body vehichle you will want to ground the second batt to the floor and ALSO put a short wire under the body hooked to the same bolt and the frame. SO sandwich the body with the ground bolt, make sense? Your big3 should ALSO include a forth wire grounded to the frame from the engine block/alternator mount.

Keep up the good work.

I am planning on working it into my amp rack somehow, for the time being i have the whole ext cab to work out a amp rack, so space shouldn't be an issue.

I am going to ge getting a Stinger Volt Meter one of these days, i have the spot to mount it as well.

Thank you for the tips on grounding!

[j-roadtatts 1,129]

You can NEVER have to many grounds.

As far as voltage meter if you like having one glaring at you at all times the Stinger one is cool, of wise I just have on I stick in the cig lighter when I want to check my voltage.

Do work Son.
