I wasn't looking for a heavy-htting system, just a nice clean install with some bump to gain those extra points at car shows.

He got exactly what he wanted:

1. nice clean install
2. some bump without being an SPL monster
3. extra points at shows for install

seems like a winning combination.

^ agreed.

like i said, i though it was a very original install idea, dont see very many of them. hes not competing for sound but more for looks. hell i would vote his way with that install ^_^

I guess your the only one, get the f*ck out of my thread If your not going to read my first post and then turn-around and re-post useless shi*t like VR pointed out. Were you born retarded or did it evolve over time?
2sidesoftodd

i read your first post, hence i was able to quote from it. furthermore, u said to post whether we were positive or negative about it. u should have just said to only post if we were gonna compliment, because criticism made u get your panties in a bunch.

[violentrapture]

Thoughtful criticism is always welcome ("I think it's gay" hardly qualifies)

Whether or not it was due to not reading the full post, misunderstanding what he was after or whatever the reason, your criticism didn't faithfully represent what he did with his install - you knocked it because you thought he did it merely for a judge/trophy, which he clearly didn't.

Can't wait to see pics with the sub ring on johny!

i really like this idea. i may have to quit my previous project. this looks a lot better.

[johny_boy32]

thanks for all the compliments and CONSTRUCTIVE critisism guys.

[firstson]

Thats looks really awesome man, i wish i had the know how and the money to do somethin like that. and on the know how part, i know its a newb question but i'm not totally stereo savy, what does a distrubution block do?

[violentrapture]

Splits up your power/ground wires to multiple amps. Basically lets you run multiple amps off of a battery without having to do multiple runs of wire to the batter. Battery -> wire -> distro block -> amps

[2fst4u]

it distributes power.

[violentrapture]

Not necessarily just power - there are dedicated ground distro blocks, power/ground blocks, etc. - I'm sure you're aware 2fst4u, just clarifying a bit.

[johny_boy32]

its a seg-way into my next project...I just thought I would add it in there now since I wanted a volt meter back there anyway.

[2fst4u]

lol, yeah. good work violent.

Quoted post

Power is the term used for the product of voltage and current measured in watts. Meaning that power results from 12 volts positive and ground. The correct terminology would be a 12 volt distribution, ground, or common distribution. Just thought I would clarify you a bit there violent. Oh heahhhhhh.
Johnyboy, I like your approach to the design and look forward to seeing the finishd product with the grill.

oooh,

:P

That's what I get for not learning about the more technical side of things - good to know though!

[Mischief007]

Nice and clean install. If I have some extra money, I'm doing a custom setup as well for a clean sound and some bump .

Again, I like it and freaking cheap too .

[Coldfire]

Nice job Johnyboy! I take it you'll be hauling your grocerys in the backseat now? :P

Quoted post

I will haul my groceries in my chevy but I have ran into one problem so far since this has been finished. My cooler for my "POP" no longer fits in my trunk and when I have passengers it would be impossible to have it in the backseat. So I have to come up with a backup plan...maybe a custom cooler or something. It has to be long and skinny...and ideas? Thanks for all the feedback everyone.

Liquid cooling setup for a computer case

That would be a killer mod!
