    HU turning on and then cutting off right away...

    I had it grounded temporarily to a really loose bolt near where the amplifiers are... while moving the seat to see what equipment was hidden back there, the guys at the shop knocked the ground loose a little... honestly, I can't blame 'em for looking, I would do the same... just a message that I...

    HU turning on and then cutting off right away...

    Just got my car back from getting inspected at the shop and getting a couple minor things fixed... now my HU will turn on right when my car does and only has enough time to scroll the word "Alpine" before it cuts off again. Turn the car off, then back on... same thing... Any idea what's wrong?

    Question about amp draw and wire size...

    I'm wondering if, all else equal, an amp putting 75w to 4ohms is drawing the same amount of current as if it were putting 75w to 8ohms... In particular, I'm about to put in a bigger amp, but it will be powering 2 8ohm drivers instead of the present amp pushing 2 4ohm drivers... and I'm...

    High quality Drum solos?

    "Do What You Like" by Blind Faith... not the best song on the album, but the drums will give your speakers a good workout... drums begin at about 8:30-9:00 and last a good few minutes. The bass solo in this song is also great

    Well..it WAS a nice car...

    What ever happened to the mailboxes that just flew over your car when you hit em?? My brother just totaled his first car on a mailbox too... People are going to go off the road from time to time, no sense littering the roadside with random metal and stone structures

    nitrous oxide/laughing gas

    I meant you lose a lot of brain cells relative to other highs... which is saying a great deal about the damage it does.

    nitrous oxide/laughing gas

    Just as an aside... huffing anything does little more than rob you of mass amounts of brain cells for a really short-lived high.

    nitrous oxide/laughing gas

    They add something to the nitrous oxide used in cars to make it very harmful... sulphuric something or other is what keeps popping up in my head There's ways around it... but I doubt you'll get that far. Short of finding a friend with a tank, your best bet is whipped cream cans.

    Aww man... you're giving me all kinds of dangerous ideas I take it this same concept would translate pretty well to a wagon? Basically make an MDF baffle to cover the whole rear cargo area... make sure you have a good seal along the sides, the rear gate, and the back seats and you're good to...

    Any way to retrieve email records from a hard drive?

    He used yahoo mail... and I seriously doubt she has the password. Is retrieving the records something that I could do with a little research, or is it just not worth worrying about?

    Any way to retrieve email records from a hard drive?

    Alright, that's what I was thinking... some woman approached me today and offered me a good bit of cash to retrieve her (soon to be ex)husband's email off of their shared computer... real messy story, told her I'd try to help her out... guess that's a no then Thanks
