I have been out of the car electronic scene for a long time (got into home and commercial electrical things instead). I just bought a 1990 Chevy 1500 that I feel confident in owning for another 5 years because it has all the features I want, and I have no problem working on it mechanically. The...

Good advice. The Motorcycle Safety Foundation puts on a local safety course here that only takes a few days, but everyone I have heard take it says they learned something. This includes people who have been riding for decades. It costs anywhere from $55 for an experienced rider to $250 for an...

Well, if the crate that RE ships in is a 20"x20"x14" cardbard box with an internal structure of OSB and 2x4s then yes. Oh, and UPS really does break **** all the time if the package has any size or weight to it. Figure that millions of packages have to go through series of conveyer belts where...

I am sellng it. I am thinking I can just JB Weld it since JB Weld has a tinsel strength of 3960 PSI. That bidding better get up to $200.

I have a funny question... I am selling a RE XXX on ebay and just noticed that UPS cracked the basket in transit. Now, this just pisses me off to no end because nopt only is UPS a shitty shipping company, but I didn't thoroughly check the sub when I got it. Anyway, the damage is a pretty clean...

Recently my Blaupunkt MP3000's internal amplifier died. I need something to replace it that won't cost me too much and will last a few years until I sell my car. I have gone all out before with seperate amplifiers and all that fun stuff; now, I just want something will get me by and be reliable...

The really funny thing is that we used to call those pyramid schemes and not matrices.

It is a decent box. I just made those brushed aluminum corners for it last month and tried the subs this week. Overall, it wouldn't have been too bad if I was back in high school with my Suburban, but college means there is no time for car audio. Plus, my apartment is way too small to hold all...

I have been cleaning up house and am trying to get rid of these PG subs and the box I made for them. I have a listing one Craigslist with the full description: http://phoenix.craigslist.org/ele/79611681.html. You can also look at my gallery since I uploaded the same two pictures there. It was...

You do know that petrol rates are about that price in the UK...

Compare a single bolt to a strip of industrial velcro. By using industrial velcro, the force of an accident is distributed over a greater area where with a bolt, the area is greatly reduced. I'm saying that a bolt is more likely to just rip out of the box in an accident. You can still bolt your...

The only way to know how it will sound is to test it out. There are way too many variables to accurately say whether it will sound great or like crap. I also agree with lombardo that in any type of moderate speed accident, that sub will injure or kill you. Use industrial velcro to secure it if...
