    Got wires? :eek:


    While I was there I started her up and checked my voltage (music off). I was getting 14.26 volts at the alternator, 14.22 volts at the front battery, and 14.20 volts at the rear batteries. It was too dark to make a vid. I'll see if I can get around to it tomorrow.

    I've gotta give it up for Jacob at Sundown. My SAX-100.4 that wasn't working reached Sundown yesterday, today I got an email from UPS tracking saying my shipment from Sundown has shipped... so I emailed Jacob and asked what was wrong with my amp. He said he hadn't tested it yet, he just sent me a new one. :cool: Try getting customer service like that with a mainstream company.

    I made a video today, but I got cut short because my camera batteries died. It's "white girl" by U.S.D.A. I had the volume at 30/40 and the bass at 0. It still looks like from the video that the 1000D doesn't do the Q15 any justice though.

    Yeah, I mean I upgraded it with the BP Power option, which allows it to take 1800 watts, and I'm giving it 1000, so I guess that's kind of expected... but I do wish I had a 1500D instead. I went with the BP Power option because it gives it better cooling and my trunk gets smoking hot in a Florida summer.

    Oh I guess I did get 1 more video of it...

    The guys on the lowrider site are convinced it's my box.

    What do you think I should do? Build a sealed box for comparison?

    what do you mean they are convinced it is your box???

    My JL 15W4 would barely have any excursion in this box yet it was super loud. At full tilt with 600 watts it didn't even look like the sub was even working hard. Excursion was less than half of Xmax. In a sealed box the sub moved A LOT more than then I snapped a tinsel lead...then the sub died. I wouldn't worry about it if it is loud and sounds good.
