the XXK siblings

got the 4150 hooked up, sending ~200 to the germs per side. they sound freakin awesome now. i crossed them around 65 or so and they take it like a champ with no distortion even at high volumes.

 

Lookin sexAy Gordo

 

Runnning bi-amped? Or 200 based on the gain settings?

Went to a SQ meet today. Rainbow and Arc well represented and impressed quite a few

 

so one of the Mille's xovers is shot. cracking bubbly sound is heard through the speakers. 'warranty' should be interesting...

 

Already? Yeesh.

 

yeah. one side of his front stage cut off suddenly after making that bubbly noise. we were demoing our stuff at the SQ meet....he think it got overheated or something. but then again my germs was still going. we're running about the same amount of power to our sets.

 

Would you like me to make a call?

 

BTW .. Germs FTW !

 

nah, not yet. curious on how they're gonna do the "warranty."

isn't that shop in trouble anyhow? or at least the companies have caught on...

 

Can't wait to see it installed.

 

Where did everyone go?

 

You people is bums !

 

watching the sox murder the indians

 

::::yawn:::

 

Wake up grumpy!!!

 

nah, Im bored in this thread...

 

He never sleeps.....maybe he needs a few ZZZZZzzzzzz's

 

how do you like the 9887 Juan?

 

I definately do.

 

I played with one at 6th ave the other day, I can't wait to get mine

 

you could have had it already if you just asked...

 

You play with one yet? Me likes alot.

 

I have. But I have no use for a new HU now. Staying OEM.

 

So ... new vehicle?

i'm itchin to get some processing now...

 

^ should've just gotten a freaking active HU and done it right.

 

Hell no, Id take external processing over built in anyday. Way too many limitations on HU ones. Unless your goin uber higher end .. ODR/F1/DRZ/etc.. Although with exception to the DRZ theyre all external, just proprietary to their respectable HU.

 

recommendations on a good RCA cable? i think the one going to the 4150 is bad, passenger side cuts out when i drive around.

 

ixos, stinger, streetwire.

 

I've only had it in the car since Friday evening, but already I can navigate through it very easily. Pretty much got it dialed in now. I really don't mind not having a motorized face. I liked my CD7000, but I really do not like the whole multi-directional thing with the volume ****. I've had the unit since July of 06, so I was very used to it. There were so many times when I would accidentally get into the balance/non-fader menu when trying to move up or down a track and vice versa. Having actual buttons to do this is something I really missed. This was probably the main reason why I decided to switch to this unit. I do wish the display was a little more how it was on my CDA-9835, and CDA-7998. One thing I do not get is, what happened to the whole green illumination thing.....there is no setting for making all of the buttons green. Something good that I noticed was that the noise floor on this thing is way better than on my CD7000. When I have the volume all the way down I don't hear a thing.

By the way, Parag was right when he commented on how solid the unit feels.

 

I was very impressed by the CDE-9881... If the fit is that good on a bottom end unit... I can only imagine how impressed I'll be with the 9887... I guess I already am with the time I've spent messing with them at 6th Ave..

 

Please dont tell me your gonna buy it from 6th ave though. I'd rather see you go Egay before them...

 

6th ave?

 

6th avenue electronics. Store.

 

Nah never. They are b!tches there, it's only fun to go there and school the car audio sales men

 

Don't let this thread die! Keep chatting, dammit!
