I like how there are so many names being thrown about- Ash, crater, Abyss......these all drag me back to days of the power grid and cars on fire, not my idea of marketing. Solid feel/look, powerful, clean. That's it. Keep it simple, look to branding and model as well as a name. You already have M/MS...

ship all amps with a fuse holder. Even better, include a short piece of wire already connected to the fuse holder and to the amp terminal. Somebody read my mind......lol An included fuse holder would be nice, but it should have a big yellow one foot wide label on it which clearly states: "Inst...

To do list: 1) Create an official PG forum, or make this the official forum with a link from the PG web site (there are 1,000s of people who are into PG but don't know this forum exists, or any forum for that matter.)

I think they should do it like they did in the old days and rate it at 24 watts by 2............. Big amps with big power written all over the top are just too boring. MAke something underated as hell, with a big grin and a wink. I second that. CEA ratings are good and all by why play in with the r...

FYI windows 7 is Vista, but only what Vista should have been when it was introduced. I have been running it as my primary work machine for nearly 2 months now and after about 6 weeks I saw it hit the same wall Vista did. Slow boot time, things just randomly hang or lag. I really like the OS as a who...

If you replace the card it just gets past the security check then fails. They have found a way to nuke this too.


I am aware of 91 being up, just need to re-point, not really wanting to get back up there after I just go it dialed in.

Not tossing my box out yet.

coils are very common for noise, this is a good first step then. My FP went out on my 90CSi and it was horribly expensive being a rare beast in the US, I had to have the part shipped from europe. When it went it was perfect and then it wasn't, in your case if it is intermittent I would suspect a rel...

For your noise issue on the changer, run a 18 gauge wire through the car between the head unit and the changer chassis. You will likely hear the difference immediately, if not no loss but if so make it permanent.

The Bose enclosure is tuned/ported, so anything you do to it keep that in mind. I have abused a few in the past with good results but the RSd's play lower naturally than speakers I have adapted to the bose enclosure so you may want to play with it a bit. In your case DO NOT CUT the metal behind the ...

I fondled the sub briefly while it was in Portland, never heard it and sure haven't had the time to even get my daily driver bumping. Upon a brief but critical inspection I have to say at the price point it has good build. Spider, looked to be cotton, is this correct? Former, coil both appeared to b...

I run vista 64 at home, no real issues. The only bug I have run into is the signed driver problem mentioned earlier. If you're wanting more RAM you will need a 64 bit box.
