Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 3541 Registered: Jul-05 | I sincerely hope this never happens to any1 u know -lol =========================== There were two high school sweethearts who went out together for four years in high school. When they graduated, they wanted to both go to the same college but the girl was accepted to a college on the east coast, and the guy went to the west coast. They agreed to be faithful to each other and spend anytime they could together. As time went on, the guy would call the girl but she was never home and when he wrote, she would take weeks to return any letters. Even when he e-mailed her, she took days to return his messages. Finally, she confessed to him that she wanted to date around. He didn't take this very well and increased his calls and letters and e-mails trying to win back her love. Because she became annoyed, and now had a new boyfriend, she wanted to get him off her back. So what she did was this: She took a polaroid picture of her sucking her new boyfriend's unmentionables and sent it to her old boyfriend with a note reading, "I found a new boyfriend, leave me alone." Well needless to say, this guy was heartbroken, but even more so, he was pissed. So what he did next was awesome: He wrote on the back of the photo the following: "Dear Mom and Dad, having a great time at college, please send more money!" and then mailed the picture to her parents... |

Post Number: 3542 Registered: Jul-05 | Ok - i'm feeling generous 2day & all - so i'm giving u all 2 jokes 2day !!!! ===================================================== A man had been drinking at the bar for hours when he mentioned something about his girlfriend being out in the car. The bartender, concerned because it was so cold, went to check on her. When he looked inside the car, he saw the man's friend, Dave, and his girlfriend kissing one another. The bartender shook his head and walked back inside. He told the drunk that he thought it might be a good idea to check on his girlfriend. The fellow staggered outside to the car, saw his buddy and his girlfriend kissing, then walked back into the bar laughing. "What's so funny?" the bartender asked. "That stupid Dave!" the fellow chortled, "He's so drunk, he thinks he's me!"........ |

Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 1251 Registered: Oct-05 | thanks rovin for the fun stories. yesterday i received my jl 1000/1 so i installed it with my se xxx sub in the box i made. i can't tell you how awesome it sounds. i am not kidding. that one sub with that amp has better sq and spl than the two type Rs. i think it has a lot to do with the amp though. i never tried the jl amp with the Rs so i wouldn't know. anyways, i love my car audio even more. |

Three doctors and one nurse were in the operating room to remedy the situation. The first doctor said, "We'll just take a big hunk off the end." They discussed it and decided that would affect his sensitivity. The second doctor said, "We'll just take a big hunk out of the middle of it." They discussed it and decided it would change the texture and feel of it. The third doctor said, "We'll just take a big hunk off the base of it." They discussed it and said that would give him erection problems. The doctors looked at the nurse who had tears running down her cheeks. The nurse cried, "Can't we just make his legs longer?"...... |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 3578 Registered: Jul-05 | A big Texan cowboy stopped at a local restaurant following a day of drinking and roaming around in Mexico. While sipping his tequila, he noticed a sizzling, scrumptious looking platter being served at the next table. Not only did it look good, the smell was wonderful. He asked the waiter, "What is that you just served?" The waiter replied, "Ah senor, you have excellent taste! Those are bull's t/esticles from the bull fight this morning. A delicacy!" The cowboy, though momentarily daunted, said, "What the heck, I'm on vacation down here! Bring me an order!" The waiter replied, "I am so sorry senor. There is only one serving per day because there is only one bull fight each morning. If you come early tomorrow and place your order, we will be sure to save you this delicacy"! The next morning, the cowboy returned, placed his order, and then that evening he was served the one and only special delicacy of the day. After a few bites, and inspecting the contents of his platter, he called to the waiter and said, "These are delicious, but they are much, much smaller than the ones I saw you serve yesterday!" The waiter shrugged his shoulders and replied, "Si, Senor. Sometimes the bull wins."..... |

Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 1266 Registered: Oct-05 | wtf is up with people on ebay sometimes. why place a bid at the last minute to win and don't pay fast. people just don't think about other people. it just pisses me off when i see people like that. damn idiots. you know the guy that sold me the jl 1000/1, well his account has been suspended from ebay. even my amp was taken off of ebay. i also got an email from ebay saying stop any payment towards him and cancel any other transaction with the seller if there are any. that is weird. i already received my amp and it was brand new. i am sure he used it a little bit but there is not a single scratch or any form of wear and tear on it. yeah he did take like 3 weeks to ship but i did get it so i don't think he is trying to rip anyone off. |

Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 1268 Registered: Oct-05 | btw rovin....if i didn't have to mount the amp on the back of my sub box then i could have tried out the Rs with the jl amp. my space is limited so i have my jl450/4 mounted on the back of my backseat and the jl 1000/1 on the back of the sub box facing the front of the car. |

She goes downstairs to look for him. She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee in front of him. He appears to be in deep thought, just staring at the wall. She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip of his coffee. "What's the matter, dear?" she asks. "Why are you down here at this time of night?" The husband looks up from his coffee, "Do you remember 20 years ago when we were dating, and you were only 16?" he asks solemnly. "Yes, I do," she replies. "Do you remember when your father caught us in the back seat of my car making love?" "Yes, I remember," says the wife, lowering herself into a chair beside him. The husband continues, "Do you remember when he shoved the shotgun in my face and said, 'Either you marry my daughter, or I'll send you to jail for 20 years?'" "I remember that, too," she replies softly. He wipes another tear from his cheek and says, "I would have gotten out today." ......... |

John says, "Well, give me some examples." Jill proceeds to tell him, "Well, the first way is, if a guy shoves his key into the lock, and opens the door hard, then that means he is a rough lover and that isn't for me." "The second way is if a man fumbles around and can't seem to find the hole, then that means he is inexperienced and that isn't for me either." Then Jill said, "Honey, how do you unlock your door?"

He quits his job and buys 50 acres of land in Vermont as far from humanity as possible. Sam sees the postman once a week and gets groceries once a month. Otherwise it's total peace and quiet. After six months or so of almost total isolation, he's finishing dinner when someone knocks on his door. He opens it and there is a big, bearded Vermonter standing there. "Name's Enoch... Your neighbor from four miles over the ridge... Having a party Saturday... Thought you'd like to come." "Great," says Sam, "after six months of this I'm ready to meet some local folks. Thank you." As Enoch is leaving he stops, "Gotta warn you there's gonna be some drinkin'." "Not a problem... After 25 years in the computer business, I can drink with the best of 'em." Again, as he starts to leave Enoch stops. "More 'n' likely gonna be some fightin' too." "Damn", Sam thinks... "Tough crowd." "Well, I get along with people. I'll be there. Thanks again." Once again Enoch turns from the door. "I've seen some wild sex at these parties, too." "Now that's not a problem" says Sam, "Remember I've been alone for six months! I'll definitely be there... By the way, what should I wear?" Enoch stops in the door again and says, "Whatever you want, just gonna be the two of us." |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 3683 Registered: Jul-05 | Chad - READ THIS !!!!!!!! lol from bcae1 no 23 about 1/4 way down .......... Amplifier mounting: DO NOT mount an amplifier on your subwoofer box. I know that there has been a great deal of discussion over mounting an amplifier to an enclosure and many people do it all of the time with no problems but those people probably build good enclosures from 3/4" (or thicker) MDF with extensive bracing. Most people (especially young impatient people) are too lazy to do that and build unbraced enclosures from 5/8 MDF. These enclosures will flex considerably more than a proper enclosure and will likely cause amplifier failure if the amp is mounted to the enclosure. REASON: When the woofer(s) moves in or out, the box flexes and therefore causes the sides of the box to vibrate. This vibration is transferred to the amplifier mounted to the box. All of the electrical components in the amplifier have mass. Inertia (an object in motion tends to stay in motion, an object at rest tends to stay at rest) tells them to stay at rest, the box vibration is trying to make them move. The energy from the box's vibration is transferred to the components through the electrical leads which are soldered into the circuit board. All of this will cause the components to break loose and therefore cause the amplifier to fail prematurely. Basically, the amplifier will commit suicide! :-) I'm not telling you this because someone told me it was bad. I've been repairing amplifiers since ~1985. Virtually every amplifier that's come into my shop with parts rattling around inside them have been mounted on the speaker box. It causes the legs of the semiconductors to break (which causes amplifier failure). It causes the capacitors to break off of the board (which can cause catastrophic amplifier failure). It causes solder joints to break on the semiconductors mounted to the heat sink. It causes transformer windings to grind into one another (which causes lots of smoke to pour out of your amplifier). People who repeatedly tell others to mount their amps on the speaker box because they've never had a problem remind me of people who drink and drive and say there's nothing wrong with it because they've never crashed their vehicle. Eventually, in both cases, problems will arise. NOTE: Mounting the amplifier on the enclosure also allows someone to steal BOTH your amps and speakers at the same time with no extra effort. It's bad enough to have one or the other stolen but losing amps and speakers (and anything else mounted to your speaker box) is really gonna suck. |

Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 1303 Registered: Oct-05 | hey guys see if you can help me. i didn't want to post this in the car audio section cause i only want intelligent answers, which you guys are very capable of doing cause you guys are the best. lol. here is what happened. yesterday at high volume the bass shut off. i tunned off my stereo and turned it back on and it was fine. later it did it again. when the bass shuts off the amp light is still green. today i checked all the connections. the ground wire was a little loose so i tighten it good. took out the sub and checked the wiring inside and that was fine. so i turned on the stereo again and it was fine. later at high volume it shut off again. now it isn't coming back on period. what can be causing this. i am so frustrated right now. my opinions to my problem right now..... maybe i over powered the sub. re se is rated at 600wrms. just because it had the softparts changed i don't think it increases the rms. but i got no distortion from the sub. i wish i still had my type Rs so i can try it out on those. i wish it is the sub cause i am planning on changing the sub anyways. i just hope it isn't the amp. |

Silver Member Username: Young_jamesCanada Post Number: 460 Registered: Sep-05 | I would of said it was an alternator problem until you said it won't come on period anymore.......I wouldn't know what's causing that.

Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 1304 Registered: Oct-05 | the amp turns on. the green light is steady. just the sub won't make a sound. i think maybe something is wrong with the sub. i read from crutchfield saying that if there is something wrong with the sub then the amp goes into protection also to prevent any damage to the amp. |

Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 3046 Registered: Jul-05 | thats true^^, ur amp will go into protection mode to prevent damage.

|
Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 1309 Registered: Oct-05 | okay i just realized it is the sub cause i just took the sub and to check again and put it back inside. but before i took the sub out i turned my stereo on again just incase it was the amp. i thought maybe if i let it rest a little it might work again. but no it didn't. still no sound from the sub. so i took it out and tested it with a aa battery to see if there were any movement. there was so i put it back in my car and now there is sound. |

Post Number: 3696 Registered: Jul-05 | isn't that hard fishing it through d hose , simplest way is 2 uninstall d rubber grummet that goes both d door & door post , then kinda pull it straight & send a stiff solid wire (that u form a hook @ d end) through d tube/hose & tape ur wires 2 d tip of d hook & pull it through . Same principle used household wiring . Making d plate is what took d time cause u gotta keep trimming here/there till u get it right so d door upholstery can fit on like original . Did find a nice 1" gap between d door upholstery & door metal so my xover is going 2 b hidden very nicely just under d door upholstery . Was kinda thinking u had a slack wire somewhere but i thought u said above u already checked it .... |
