Update on the theft situation...... my neighbor's garage got hit the same night that I did. He and his family were on spring break so nobody was home. He owns a carpentry business and his garage was STACKED with expensive woodworking tools. All in all, the thieves made out with around $10K in...

This can't be real...... Besides wiring the subs to the power/ground.....are those two 30A fuses and a 2A in the amp?? How long are those drywall screws that you used to secure the external fuse into the factory fuse box? I'm really hoping you didn't use anything over an inch.... If this is a...

edited: not confident in my recommendation so I removed it. I can't find anything for the 90's model on the Orion site :(  I found specs for the year 2000 xtr line but I am not sure if it's the same for the model you have. I'll keep digging and re-post if I find it.  

The firewall is literally the "wall" of metal between your engine and cabin compartments. From inside the car, it's going to be up underneath the dash. Are you saying that you have found a hole from the engine compartment into the cabin, but you can't find where it comes out inside the car? You...

What's your budget? That's going to be the biggest factor in what gets recommended to you. There's a lot of amps out there that will do 250rms @ 4ohms. Also, don't worry about getting an amp that's rated higher than the RMS of the sub. You can get a larger than necessary amp so you have some...

I pulled up your subs based on the BP1204 printed on the terminal, which leads me to assume you have the Dual brand 12's in a bandpass enclosure. To answer your question, the box is already wired to be run bridged since the 2 subwoofers only have 1 terminal on the enclosure. You could run wires...

I'm about 99% sure of who did it. We've only been in the house for a little over a year. The previous owners (as we found out after we bought it) were a bunch of criminals. Their kids are on a first name basis with the local sheriff because they are in and out of jail so much. Their oldest son...

Thieves are the worst, work for your own ****. Lo and behold, an APMI-2k popped up on a local FB sales group that I am on. I still have all the paperwork from my amp so I've got the serial number right here. I notified the cops so it'll be interesting to see if they attempt to make contact with...

Well, some ******* broke into my truck last night and stole my APMI-2K. The box must have been too heavy because they tried to pull it out and gave up. I also had a couple of budget amps back there that I was testing for the $150 challenge, they stole those too. This is particularly troubling...

lmao, I just got one of those emails from Wal-Mart that said something like "Shop More of the Stuff You Love!". It had a picture of a Sundown Audio Sub with a $15 price tag in the body of the email and I thought "wtf? how can they be selling for that cheap?!?!". I click the link and here is what...

Like you, I stepped away from car audio for quite a few years and just got back into it about 8 months ago. I was looking for a decent amp without breaking the bank since I wasn't sure how far down the rabbit hole I'd go this time around. Audiopipe was just gaining popularity when I exited the...

I swear that lately, people on FB marketplace are trying to get more than retail $$$ for their audio equipment. Came across this today....you can get two 8-month-old P3's in a "custom" enclosure for the low low price of $625. Too bad you can get those brand new for $200 a pop.... Not sure on the...

I've got the same truck, well, it's a '14 but the stupid molded cubby holes in the back are the same. When you go to spec out the space with cardboard, pull out the carpet under the seat and in that cargo area. The carpet has padding underneath and you will gain some space by removing it.  I've...

good to see you getting back into the swing of things. I wish I could have heard your green tahoe before you sold it. If I am not mistaken, I swear that I saw most of your gear getting posted on the Michigan Car Audio Classifieds facebook page, wish I could have scooped up those alts. You're up...

What I find impressive is how well this enclosure works across the spectrum. Check out the graph below.....I did a series of burps from 20hz to 60hz, volume was left the same for each burp, and the response is nearly the same from 20 to 60. Pretty crazy,
