[QUOTE="CRD, post: 4693227, member: 592657"] Here is a pic of the mess I have on the trunk, I'm deciding if I will go with (1) DVC subwoofer or (2) SVC subs. 10" or 12" I only have 220wRMS x 2. I need to test this first before start fabricating the amp rack and sub box. The amps are staying we're they are, with a second floor and a good cooling system. PS:The amps are screwed in and are not crocked [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG] , they look crocked on the picture because of the camera lens :P [IMG]http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/8893/1003687mediumej3.jpg[/IMG] I'm going to use in the mean time this scosche 500k capacitor, to help a little the dimming on the cabin lights, until I save for 2 new kinetik batts. The rockford 1 farad was confiscated by my cousin [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG] [IMG]http://img300.imageshack.us/img300/536/1003689mediumib4.jpg[/IMG] Calibrating the system is a real PAIN in the behind, every gain setting is different for each set of speakers, plus I have to play with the DXS gain settings too to maintain even sound on all the speakers at all volume levels. Because the midranges are 8ohm I have problems matching the sound to the other speakers on diffent volumes. They sound louder at one point and they totally die in lower lower volume, they're GREAT but the amplifier reacts different on 8ohms. With the JL Slash series I won't have this problem. I ordered some 4" full range speakers 4ohm to make a test. And I will replace the VC100 tweeters for the Daytons RS28A's that I have here.

New updates on the CARPUTER is that the motherboard I have now is big and I really don't whant to put it in the trunk, longer cables give me loss in video quality and can pick up more noise, so I bought on ebay a small motherboard used for car pc and I can fitted behind the 8" Touchscreen LCD.
