each picture is encoded with a detailed info regarding camera body, focal length used, ISO, etc etc. i knew right away from the first pic that you didn't use a typical point-and-shoot camera, and probably used a SLR of some type.

I just saved an image onto my desktop, and just right-click the picture and go to properties, and then click the details tab.

sorry, i do photography on the side, so i can be a photography nut at times.

How many rms watts did u have on your cvr? I got a 12 and just for a test threw about 150-200watts on it and it sounded pretty loud. After I got my new amp which puts out 360rms it sounded really about the same? It does sound a little cleaner though but doesnt really hit much harder.

here is an update




Also yesterday i bought brand new Kicker ZX300.1 for $70 shipped to power this thing
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWNX:IT

there is only 1 problem, there is very limited space behind the seats for any amps, i hope Kicker will fit in there somehow. Ohh and right now its being powered by the stock sub amp as you can see, LOL
