    Remote power switch

    thanks for the recommendation on the two fans in push pull. I like that better, hadn't thought of it.

    Remote power switch

    Hello, I am building sub box/amp rack combo for my daughter. Both the sub and the amp will be integrated into one box system. There will be an isolated sealed box for the sub and a separate amp rack but all will be incorporated into one unit. Basically the front of the box will be divided in...

    10" vs 12" sub

    Ok I am a newbie, well not really but its been to long. I am building a Sub/amp package for my daughters car. First the parameters. The car needs a complete upgrade of the entire sound system so money on this is a big issue. We are starting with a basic system that will sound good and if she...
