    (as in car stereo)

    or do you still do?

    what was your setup?


    I had 2 JL Audio 12W1s with a PPI amp back in high school. 3 cubic ft. sealed box (1.5 each chamber). I replaced that with a sealed 1.75 cu ft JL Audio 12W6 in college and a bigger PPI Pro series amp.

    shit was bumpin'

    Had some MB Quart's up front and in the rear.

    right now, I'm all stock though.

    Wow, I thought song was bad, now I see the music video is much worse.

    Everclears biggest problem was that when his songs were good they were all about Art's dad, and when he wasnt on heroine they all just sounded the same. Props from coming from Portland though.

    HA! I use to do that. Meet on broadway by the Chevron (on the southside... which is no longer there) and go drag racing down on the southwest waterfront. Which you can't do any more because of everything that is there now.

    As for a system... no never had one nor did I ever want one. Just a reason for someone to break into your car.

    Infinity separates on a 500/4 JL amp, and a JL Audio 10W7 on a 500/1. Used to have it in the back of the TrailBlazer.

    I grew up and moved on. Now I have a little Lexus convertible for the wife and an Avalanche for me.

    Yep, I had:

    Clarion HX-D10 headunit
    JBL GTi components running on an MTX 2300x
    JBL W10GTi suboofer running on a Phoenix Gold Titanium Ti1200.1

    I had 0-gauge cable running to the amps, and had taken all of the interior out of my Tahoe so that I could lay 2 layers of dampening and insulation underneath.

    It was a pretty good system. Now that I think about it, I kind of miss it. :wub:

    Yeah, on the last install, I had 1/0 guage running from the battery to the amps, that was insane....my friend did my wiring so I was able to spend a few bucks per foot on cables.

    Me too. Got dismissed because the cop didn't show up to court when I went to contest it.

    Always the same....go downtown, cruise for a while, then hit up UpFrontFX haha.

    I rolled a Turquoise Blue/Green 95 Accord. Usually rolled in my friend's Black Honda accord too, he had it souped up a bit and all rimmed out too....just depended, we had a few cars we rolled with.

    what did you roll in?
