[QUOTE="wickedwitt, post: 8046431, member: 622908"] Super Start from O'Reilly. Die Hard from Sears. Deka from an East Penn distributer (a bit harder to locate but they will ship to your door). The big 3 I talked about earlier will show you that you upgrade the ground between the Alt neg/engine block, frame, and chassis. This in effect makes a clean ground in the rear of the truck on the chassis decent enough for what you are going to be running. That thread has pictures and a detailed explanation. You'll need about 10' or so of good OFC (Oxygen Free Copper) 1/0 wire. hz is short for Hertz, meaning the "note". A 20hz note is nearly inaudible, a 30hz note is fairly low, a 40hz note is right around a drum set kick drum, a 100-500hz note is most talking/singing. 300-1200hz most guitar, 8-16k whistles/cymbals etc. Our ear is most sensitive at 1000hz. Having a ported box "tuned" to 35hz means the port does the most work at 35hz and the subs hardly do any work. As you get away from the port frequency or tuning, the sub begins to see more power and works harder, while the port has less and less output. [/QUOTE]
