Re: Black MQ430?

If it was the one on eBay it was actually dark green. It went to the guy that has the matching 275. It has finally been reunited with its long lost brother after all these years. It is posted with its match on the pg classifieds to show it off. Well, just goes to show that some take crappy pictures...

Re: Black MQ430?

Not the one off fb. Mine totally looked black.

What's the fb page I keep you guys mentioning? I think I might be missing out on buying goodies off there.

Black MQ430?

Anyone ever seen or heard of one? I think I read somewhere, that a black one of these, was a test subject for PG.. any truth to this? Total OEM looking silk screening. Did not look like a back yard homemade job. The MQ slipped out of my hands.. seller sold it out from under me. Karma for him. I was ...

Re: PG Rare & Limited Edition Registry

AHHHHHHHH! The abuse! My eyes, my eyes! Wow, that sucks.. someone shorted something! I should post my beat up Route 66. I think I'll do a nice paint job vs powder coating it. Getting the graphics on it is the hard/tricky part. I got a quote of 325$US to redo the powder coat and graphics.. it's not a...

Re: PG Rare & Limited Edition Registry

Still drives me insane seeing limited run amps getting abused... they made like 120 ZX950s in white and black.. that's just sinful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Argh.

How bad a shape is it in? The Route66 I got was put through the ringer too.. lol.

Re: Acquired a few goodies, got few questions, need suggesti

I thought I read the RMS power on those tweeters at around 70wrms. The power handling is actually 50wrms. So I think the Mps amp might be perfect. If the spec sheets puts the 14.4v Mps output at 36..what will it really end up being? Say I did do the ms/Mps combo, I could sandwich them together - if ...

Re: Acquired a few goodies, got few questions, need suggesti

I don't have an M25. They don't come up very often around the used market. I totally missed out on that one auction on Ebay for a BNIB one with a mint paired on to it. Auction didn't sell first crack at 250us.. second crack, it swelled to $520US - I was MAD. What's comparable to the M25 in my stash?

Re: Acquired a few goodies, got few questions, need suggesti

Another tweeter to check out is the LPG 26NA. That is the same company that makes the drivers for the JL ZR components. YOu can get them from Madisound for like $45 each. They should go with the ZR mids well. Also one of my personal favorites is the Seas Prestige H1396. They are also around the sam...

Re: pg sd1300.5

Yeah, you had mentioned that in the past. But the price I paid for the RSD... it's in great shape too. I thought I had sifted through enough on the SDs and RSDs.. but yesterday, after coming across this thread, and asking about the RSD, I learned a bit more. Making me want to keep it really.

Re: pg sd1300.5

Ok.. I was kind a getting that the rsd was a radial version of the SD.. I think.

I was only asking because I scored an rsd500.4. Debating in keeping or flipping.

Would repainting that be sinful? Should it be powder coated, or plain old paint? The wife is pretty amazing at painting stuff... lord knows she's repainted half my shiat since we've been together!

White? Ad decent or better than my MQ? If so, pm me details.. I'm from Canada so the $ exchange automatically sucks.

Re: Acquired a few goodies, got few questions, need suggesti

Cost? It would be easier for me to acquire a precise cut plexi sheet for the bottom of it. I'd just need to drill the holes and dremel the notches for the mounting screws. Sheet metal wouldn't be as easy for me to do.. that's all. Just want to button it up. The amp has been open, in that smoke fille...

Got a bass cube, and yes I did note the 4 in, 5 out outputs. I still like the sapphire better. And I never got the XS6600 .. but I felt like asking.

Lol. No LEDs. All components are going to be out of sight, out of mind. No freaking thieves are getting their mitts on my stash. Not going for looks or show. Goes with the rest of the car - total sleeper. Cops leave me alone, it's great.

Re: Acquired a few goodies, got few questions, need suggesti

I know I lucked on on the RCAs. The kicker tho is this: the seller didn't realize that he had 2 sets in the pile.. as I unravel them to scan them, he's like:"hey, there's 2 sets in there?!?". "Yup, it's what was in your ad picture.". I paid 50$ CDN for them. 4.5meters each. Sick....

Re: Spring build question - regarding capacitors

What those numbers show me, as the the caps do make a difference. Not a night and day, but subtle, every little bit counts. As mentioned.. having caps on hand, that were acquired for free, or dirt cheap, makes the addition worth it. The debate on caps, the debate on RCAs, the debate on Amps, the deb...

Re: Spring build question - regarding capacitors

Since I have a few caps, I will use at least one on the sub amp. And for pooh and giggles, I will run one on the front end amp too. The one thing I have read, is that it just flattens the voltage curve ripples. I figure if I was an amplifier, I would prefer a steady voltage number feeding me. For mo...

Re: Acquired a few goodies, got few questions, need suggesti

If I said I was going to use an Audison Bit One, would that change your suggestion on amp choices? The Bit One wouldn't be "better" than using the passive crossovers on the front speakers? My choice in using the Audison, is for it's crossover capabilities, and time alignment feature. Part ...
