    One of the fella's from next door came by and wanted me to take a look at his system. After inspection i noticed there was a lot of things wrong. From the power wire to the gains/bass boost turned all the way up it was just bad news. He is a hard worker and a cool guy so instead of just sending him on his way, i decided to fix it for him while he was working. This was just an hour and a half worth of work tops but i plan on making it even better for him soon.

    A few years ago when the HCCA sub first came out I was the only person I seen with that sub even till today, seen in person. I had 1 12" HCCA with a Rockford T1500 at 2ohm. Had O2 door speakers on a Kicker 350.4. It use to rock so hard people thought I had 2 15" and I would show them and they couldn't believe it. Perfect highs and perfect lows, and now seeing the SMD distortion kit I know it would have been even more crazy!!! I balanced it out manually but I know with this kit it would have been even more unbelievable. You are definitely the man in audio Steve wish I knew about your channel when I had my system. But Now I do so better late then never right.

    I know this is 4 years old. That being said I gotta say brother your one hell of a great person hook someone up like that and no charge were not so different I do things for ppl all the time that I don't know and don't ask or expect a thing and won't take a thing for it. All part of helping out ppl and paying it forward. Carma always comes back in the long run and the more good you do for those in need one day it will come back when you need it and don't expect it. That's the way we should all live and be. Mad props brother 👊. Like I said before this is one of the many reasons why your the best in the business 👊

      no not at all. It would probably be up to 38-40 without. Makes no difference. Idea is to detect distortion from the deck to the amp and it can be done by matching amp gains to deck output
      turning a knob a bit is better than frying electronics and having them put out shitty sound

Am an Auto Technician and I sometimes do the same with people I help them out and show pride in my work when doing so for free. Keep up the good work and thanks for feeding my BASS needs. You inspired me to start upgrading my set up. I started with an Orion HCCA 12D in a tuned ported box powered by a Hifonics Brutus Bxi2006 mono block. I am proud of it but still need to clean it up. Thank you again brother! Have a great year I know I will since my son was born yesterday 01/01/14.

Turning up the volume to where they would want it and setting the gains from there. Right at where i heard it started to distort i stop, it was about half way. of course because i have not gone to school and not certified but following you and Car Audio Fabrication and EXO, i learned how to do this. well of course they turned the gain all the way up, so i let them be. i tried. but i know once i am certified and had gone to school i know i will fight with who ever to make it right. again thanks for this great video.

Also the back seat is built like an armored car, you need to cut the rear deck to let some sound into the cabin =)

    Now that is all ready to listen to up loud and clean. I'd be listening to an internet radio station on the iTunes radio list which is situated in the Hip Hop/Rap (225 streams) genre called Under Ground Radio Music - Nonstop Rap 24/7. Thats where its at. If anyone knows of another internet radio station that hits hard all day shout it out.

    my previous car (99 lumina) was insane I am tone def now I was running all alpine the 2 type s 12 woofers had there on 1000 Watt amp running 2 ohms and 50x4 for fronts and rear
    it was loud and sounded very nice driving by stores the windows were worping all I seen in the rear view mirror was 4 times lol running 3 amplifiers was nice but it took a while to match the two amp subs well worth it in the end tho

    I kinda wish you had done an amp test on one of those crunch amps.
