[QUOTE="Frraksurred, post: 84076, member: 544871"] Ok, I have picked up quite a few things I was clueless about since I started reading this Forum... thanks to all of you! Now I have some more questions. I hear line drivers will make for much cleaner and louder sound from amps. I want to keep THD to a minimum so I'm assuming these would help? What exactly would an "epicenter" do for me? I have 2 12's in a sealed box now, but they're old and I want to eventually update and build a ported box (most of my musical taste is rock / rap)... just FYI. Also I've read about people "braiding" their signal wires (RCA's) to cut down on "cross talk". I don't understand that completely, somebody want to fill me in? One of the mags I read showed an install where the guy ran his signal wires thru a copper tupe to block interferance and then wraped his power wires in thick rubber inside a stainless steel channel all the way to his amps. I understand these are extreme measures, but they are also fairly cheap to do if they make a difference. Any comments on that? If you can't tell I'm trying to fit the best quality music in my car I can on my meger budget. I drive A LOT, and I go thru a car about every 2 yrs. Consequently I spend a lot of time uninstalling and installing, LOL! BTW I already SDed the trunk, doors and floor with eDead v.1 and some Dynamat Extreme I got early on. Any answers or additional tips you could provide would be much appreciated! I'm still soaking it all in.
