My last unit (Eclipse) was limited to 2 levels and it ******! edit: wow, can't type ******

Does that mean folders within folders? (like a taco within another taco, inside of a burrito, inside of a Taco Bell, inside of a KFC? SP )

anyone? thanks

Just curious what the menu structure is like on this unit. Are the multiple layers (or subfolders) just like on a PC? Curious about USB, not ipod.

What does it do weird?

I've been told that this unit doesn't offer very good support for multiple folders on a thumb drive and that the unit will automatically skip from the first song in one folder to the first song in the next. Can someone please confirm this?

If I touch the test leads together so that they form a cross, the internal resistance varies wildly. Is that normal? If I touch ends the of the pointed tips of the two leads together, I get a constant reading of ~.9 (the dial is on the "200" setting). Any thoughts?

Is it true this unit doesn't recognize folders on USB?

Anyone? Thanks

I was considering doing that but I decided to get a 4ch amp instead and run 2 for the front stage (coaxes) and the other two bridged to a sub. Rear speaks will be off the HU. Has anyone else heard of any issues with TA in this type of setup?

Do any fairly current H/Us have problems doing DTA when the front channels are amped (through RCA) and the rear channels are playing off of the head unit?

I appreciate the advice to do it "the right way", but it aint gonna happen! Just looking for a quick something. Thanks though.

Thanks, I'll look into the closed-cell option since I've already mentioned the plexi route is not going to happen. What about material used in recording booths? I'm sure there are closed-cell products from that application that might work well.

I'd like to steer clear of anything toxic. Maybe just some thinner, sound blocking foam glued over the holes would help prevent road noise from entering in through larger holes. Not sure if it's worth the trouble at this point.

I plan on covering the inner door frames (the layer the speaker mounts to) with deadener but there will be some sizable holes left over. I'm not going to do a sheet metal/mdf/plexi cover for the holes but I was thinking maybe a bit of closed-cell foam could help seal out a some road noise...
