Been a while, these still for sale?

I used to have a 78' ***** Am and it had a single speaker in the center of the dash as well. If I remember right, there was a set up that included a plate and two separate sets of drivers that mounted into it so you would have stereo sound from the single speaker location. That's all I can...

The MS8 is kinda tricky. Definitely not for everyone. I am glad I stuck with it. Now I am going to have to get another one for my Mustang build.....lol.

Find yourself a JBL MS8 and call it a day. The thing practically sets up itself and you will have a great sounding system in no time.

When I was getting back into the game I had gotten a Kenwood XR-5S. Solid little amp and decently clean. It was my first class D amp and I thought it sounded pretty good. It had 350rms @ 4 ohms going to the sub channel and 80wrms x 4 @ 4ohms.

Official AVIC NEX Bypass (AVIC Units Only) - NEX Series - AVIC411.com This is the dvd bypass. My 6000nex didn't require a hardware bypass. May help you out.

I was only 18 when I got my stuff jacked the first time. I was showin off my system to this one guy at work and fell for the dummest line ever. "Hey man, I need some help with my system, can I get your address and I'll come by after work." He came by all right. In the middle of the night...

Good times.... I wanna go to Thailand.

if you have those subs wired in parallel then that amp is seeing a 2ohm load when it should only be seeing 4ohms bridged. You are lucky you haven't fried it yet.

I never had that kinda coin wrapped up in my gear before but back in the 90's I had my **** stolen twice. I did have a rider on my auto insurance tho but insurance or not, its still a sinking, nasty feeling when you go outside in the morning and all your shits gone. I feel for him just the same...

be nice if you could also link up your OBD2 so you can see all your engine info and whatnot.

thats really not a good thing. Means you have a bad ground. DC pops can destroy tweeters Already handled. I isolated the tweeters with a dpdt relay so they don't get the pop on shut down. The relay coil is de-energized by the remote from the headunit and I have the ms8 set for a 5 sec delay for...

I have a lot of live music dvd's and they sound much better since I'm running the ms8. That is about the only time the rears are doing anything noticeable. I am really afraid to hear a seriously setup SQ ride. Right now my **** sounds the best it has ever sounded and if I were to hear some...

Thanks for the reply. I finally have a bit of time tonight after work so I'll pull those passives and set the tweets per your recommendations and see how it sounds.
