How about all you smart asses post your sarcastic remarks...that way i can print them and wipe my butt with them, because seriously i dont give a damn Like i said its a write up...not a debate.

OP: No one is trying to be sarcastic to you. You did a write up, that is what it is. You turned it into a pissing match about Memphis is better than JL crap.

I did not ass fuck you when you posted the write up and i was nice to give you pointers on how to do it better. pointers on how to be cautious about power and shorts.

When i posted up a car i had almost 8 years ago you started with JL sucks ball and crap like Memphis is awesome. You started to compare cheap JL's to mid grade Memphis.

Again, I live and breathe 12 volt, I know what i am talking about, I know good stuff and bad stuff. Memphis is not bad stuff, its just not a great as you think it is.

We can debate your write up though if you want?

dude I never said they suck balls...as a matter of fact I said they sounded great...they just didnt work for me because of my experiences with them (after going through 2 in a year,you can understand im sure...i mean 2 of their most bad ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD subs) like you said maybe mine were defects...but after 2 in a row... i cant help but blame engineering. I guess I was came off too strong on the whole JL vs Memphis thing...my bad. I also do 12v for a living (actually 300v). I work at Energy Control Systems in monrovia and we design 300v 2000amp battery packs for hybris and electric vehicles(we did the prius, the leaf, CODA,electric trains,tesla and the crz) so I do know my way around a battery...

Thats F**cked up dude.....really? So this is why my brother doesnt like volvo speed....

Just like your attitude towards Ghost... that's what karma is for. He and I may have our differences, but I don't try to call him out on his car audio knowledge... especially when one google search would tell me I'm dead wrong.

Eh, most people here are pretty reasonable. Sure, some people like to play games with the rep system. But the best advice I can give you is to not worry about it, as complaining about it will get you neg'd to death Click me

[Deimos]

I don't play games with it, I just have the habit of -1ing all of the OP's posts if he gets rude to people trying to provide good info.

[Bah]

Pioneer comps ftw, people are so against them cause lower end pioneer is sold at walmart lol...



And JL makes quality subs. Not hating on any brands, but, JL W7's are awesome. And i gotta agree, the OP was complaining about JL's with foam surrounds....most all high end subs use Butyl rubber or w/e the fave material of the week. The only subs these days that should use foam is the low end cheapo subs, and 100% competition subs that are meant to last for only a few competitions.

But aside the point; I think i read him say his voltage went up after installing new wires. Was it at that # at load or at beat hits? Having larger wires is not going to change the voltage, since voltage is potential. You can have 120v,500v,1000v running on the wire, who cares, its current that matters. You ideally should have measured the maximum current before and after. But the fact your voltage jumped up after installing new wires, kinda begs the idea you had some serious wiring issues, likely the alternator cable or a ground. Larger wires means more current when you need it, which should only be under heavy hits. Again, i'm not hating your install, but, just explaining why you might be noticing such a large improvement.

and to GS...so if i gave you a 6V system you would be lost? Come on man, at least claim your a master of DC not just 12V ;P

I don't give a fuck what you guys are arguing about. I just want to know what wheels are on that Jeep. Those are tits.

Steve...do you know?

[Ghost Shadow]

20 x 10 +18 offset, kmc xd series monster wheels with nitto trail grapplers. Or are we talking about the escalade?

[Matty Moo]

I was talking about the Jeep. I've seen those before in 18's and want a set but never figured out what they were.

Can't do 20's though....too baller for me and not good enough in the sand. I'm doing 18's when I get around to lifting it.

[Bah]

Best pow pow power wheels EVER!

Wow, Audiophiles are vicious. I am going to stick the the For Sale forum.

What ever peeps....just read the freakin write up and thumbs up if you like it or found it useful ;-)

That's the rub, you posted the exact writeup on TB and didn't like the constructive criticism there, and you then posted it here and are doing the same thing.

Have fun with your car, but everyone has something to learn

[Q-Ship]

and volvospeed will learn you good!

And to think I'm running with a home theater sub LOL I totally went off the deep end this time. I took all the specs I could find did some math, looked at the curves. Most Automotive sub manufactures hardley display thier frequency curves.
Needed small displacement with high horse power. Decided to go with a Dayton Audio sub. No major brand name just someone that made sense acording to specs. http://www.parts-exp...tnumber=295-414 This has got more punch than my 2 old MTX blue thunder subs. With the same wattage on half the space.

I totally agree with 95-850, upgrade your wiring and you'll notice that your electrical system will thank you. I did mine with welding cable because it was free for me. All connections are soldered.


Hey GS props on your Hadley system. I recommend upgrading the air compressor and tank.
Air tools are fun on the side of the road LOL
