Put it on the inside of the port as well. The bass will slip out louder.

I had an older version for a year. I just bought the newer version 2 months ago and it was better. The touchscreen works very good for a cheap head unit. 4 volt preouts and a 10 band EQ. Also some type of technology that makes the radio stations sound better. I have not studied into that one yet...

the immigrants coming through the border here have money to pay the cartels 5000$ per head just to travel through Mexico. No one rides for free. The cartels are the ones profiting big on our immigration policies. We also don’t really get the immigrants that just want a better life and a good...

I’m pleasantly surprised with my Atoto head unit. I bought it as a quick temporary head unit after a car accident, but there’s no reason to replace it after using it for awhile. It’s actually decent. 4 volt rca outs, good working touchscreen, lots of expansion options, Apple CarPlay/android auto.

I use bedliner quite often. Works well and is more durable than paint for sure. If you want a different option with texture, the “Stone Creations” paint works well and covers a lot of blemishes. You can also paint over it with any color. I used some on my little portable Bluetooth build...

I take care of my schizophrenic brother and blind wife. By Robs new healthcare standard I should be first in line for any health related care. I love it.

I’ve kinda just moved on and financed another vehicle. One day I will get 70% of some kind of settlement I’m sure. Might be 10k, might be 50. It’s in the blood suckers hands now and they want their 30% to be significant. Blue book value on my lost Jeep was 8k I think.

Uggh. Nothing worse than going to an audio show with an obnoxious stunt wall blaring terrible sounding music at 152 DB.

I’d like to try Daytons kraken 21 inch. I wish they weren’t only available in single 4 ohm coils. The 18 inch ultimax was a great sounding sub.

Nothing yet. Apparently it can take months just to get a police report in a case like this.

A bandpass crossover is not the same thing as a bandpass enclosure. A bandpass crossover is just a combination of a low pass and high pass crossover. I use a bandpass crossover on my midbass speakers from 80-300 HZ and another bandpass crossover on my midrange speakers from 300-6000 HZ.

Both of those boxes will lose air space once the subs go in. Probably lose .25 cubes and raise port tuning by 1-2 HZ. The GP box is going to be far superior over a prefab.

Round flared aeroports would give you some extra air space. I did a 4 cube enclosure for a 15 not long ago and the aeroport saved around .5 cubes over the slot port with the same air space. You’d almost need to go custom to squeeze everything you can out of your space.

Advertising net volume always bothered me. When you put subs in a box advertised at 2 cubes and lose .25 cubes of air space you not only lose the air space, it also raises port tuning. What you thought was 2 cubes @ 32 HZ is now 1.75 @ 35 HZ.
