    Lower wattage vs. super high power setups

    Out of curiosity what constitutes high power? Over 1k watts...5k... I think a lot of the time people go for too loud. The louder a setup goes the more a single part starts to shine while the others falter. If you pump too much base into a system, you start to lose the highs and vice versa...

    Has anyone ever severly screwed up the big 3?

    My only 3 recommendations are: 1) Pull on the terminals hard after they are crimped. If you cant rip them off then they are solid. (This may seem like it would loosen it, but a perfect connection won't move ever(pending years of corrosion)) 2) Get 2 old or cheap, dry hand towels. When you...

    Anyone tried these cables?

    Fixed the link. While I have liked the rest of the Knu wire I have, my run is only 7 inches so trying to remove as much excess cable as possible.

    Honda needs to read this thread. Little to no insulation on the stock wires and the only metal to metal contact was 1-2 threads of the bolt. Thanks for the great thread.

    Heat Concerns for Amp Rack

    Contents of box: JL HD 600/4 JL HD 750/1 CarPC MS-8 So I am debating between 2 options: 1) False floor with 4 inch raise and a semi-complex door system to keep the spare accessible. Best possible heat dispersion, but consumes a good deal of trunk spare and if any spills occur, suseptable...

    False wall/loading wall?

    You could set it up normally facing the rear. The for the false wall, build a frame and use a mesh wire to fill the holes. Throw carpet over that. Should be strong if braced properly and provide the sub with more air space. I don't believe this would effect sub level waves and should solve...

    Double DIN Head Unit Recommendations (SQ w/ options)

    So I know sony isn't notorious for sound quality...But what do you all think of the Sony XAV-70BT and XNV-770BT? The other possible option I saw was Clarion VX401. As I said earlier, just need this to provide a clean source to a JBL MS-8, and the MS-8 can do its miracles.

    Banana Plugs (Speakers and Grounds)

    So I am planning on installing banana plugs between my wires and amp box for easy quick disconnects if I need more space. With that said does anyone have any they recommend (prefer tot solder for best connection)? Also, for power and ground wires, will banana plugs work or will it restrict the...
