hi guys haven't been on in a while.
Anyway on thursday i made a subwoofer box for the car. much bettter bass now. its 1.78 cubic feet for one 12inch. anyway then on friday i bought an eclipse amp for the sub cos the pioneer one just wasn't doing it. so now i have the pioneer running all the speakers in the car. then i was going to take the rca signal out of the pioneer as it has an output jack. hooked it all up, broke my back running all the cabling and it didn't work. i then worked out that the pioneer amp rca output was not working. i took it to pioneer and they said five to ten days. that means for that time i have no radio as the speakers are running off the pioneer amplifier.
thats an update of my stuff. i'll post some pics cause my dad helped me mount the amp i i think where we put it completes the boot.
cheers |

Don't laugh, it's not as crazy as it sounds. I had a sick sub bro in my car...hehe.. anyway i had a really good soundsystem.. and i blew all my speakers.. i had a very good amp too, lol.. so anyway before i obtained more speakers i was driving around with just the sub pumping.... it's funny how you learn whole albums just by the doof doof.... crazy stuff. Now whenever a car drives by with the subs going, i can usually tell what song it is.  |

Exactly, and they will more than likely try and say you overpowered them even if you are not to blame..
Its not that easy to get speakers replaced under warrenty while claiming they wrentpushed beyond their publically published recomended power/usage limits.  |

thats what i am hoping for too. but the ideal situation would be "sorry sir we don't have anymore in stock, we will give you the new model."
but that a hole heap of s**t. knowing my luck they will fix it. |
