Afterall due to wire lengths I had to make the connectiions once the amps were mounted on the rack- being they are bottom wired with littler clearance between the connectors and trunk floor- well you can see, how I might've f'd that up.

I'll flip'm tomorrow...hehe...

Setting up 2 5chs like in my situation, behind an enclosure-working through the skihole , with no help is a PITA. I gotta admit, I kinda rushed it- i was getting sick of driving around with just my midranges playing for 2 weeks after I parted with my Arc's.

I gotta say, these babies are beauty pageant winners. They look even better in person

If you wanna check out some active Sq setups, I'd say so...Its only a day trip here and back. You can basically get constructive critique on your setup (or not)by people that have heard some good cars and do the same yourself.
Some of us have no probs giving you a hand tuning.

You get to hear some drivers you normally wouldnt- for instance some 3way setups, Platinum's , some Chu has a Seas Lotus drivers, ribbon tweeters
setup.Our buddy Frankie has a pretty sick DLS 3way front with a trio of 12's in his Mazda6, if Steve makes it you can hear some horns, IDQ8 in doors w/ some IB 12's...Depending on Danny's flavor of the month he could have horns or planar tweets and some sort of 15".PeteNYC has some serious high dollar Zapco setup in his Explorer done by Bill Acevedo's shop...3way active fronts as well with 4 IDMax 12's...I'm sure there will be quite a few more heads.

Its no car show, but a bunch of chill dudes getting a taste of different setups. Def a few comp grade cars that will be looking to compete soon.

Bring him back to noob status so he can't post new threads.

Wait, that won't do anything, he'll just PW back up.

Just policy in general..they need a hardcopy dealer agreement signed (not faxed). This means he comes down, I sign it, then he MAILS it into AC.

WTF is that **** ?!?!?!

I hate that numb feeling when you are really tired and lacking sleep. I have been doing night shifts here and there on top of my regular day shifts. Man that can get old fast.

By the way my little one really likes those owls .


Oh and here is 2K .

Was going to post in the 4th gen forum, but came back here .
