Autotuba for collegebound sister

When I install them I drill a hole smaller than the tnut, and tap it in. This is with arauco.

Same for me, except I use Leland's hurricane nuts and slather the bottom of the flange in epoxy, then gently tap it in with a small mallet.

I used a screw clamp to slowly squeeze it in

the gto along with installment stuff will be coming in the mail around wednesday. what is the voltage limit for the gto? it has similar xmax to the tb, so shouldn't it have the same limit?

yes

I pulled the mcm out today, and it was interesting. When it met xlim the accordion ripped of the vc, and the cone smashed into the brace. I'm thinking of scraping it to get some money back, but while I'm at it I'm gonna do a dissection and learn about the anatomy of speakers. I will put up some pics

[DJ Higgumz]

the leds, carpet and gto804 came in today! I will finish up the cab and then I will be ready to install. I need to talk to her bf and tell him to take her out for a day!

[DJ Higgumz]

oh and whats the voltage limit for the tb and gto? is it still 20v?

[Tom Smit]

Yes,

or even 21v !

[DJ Higgumz]

ooh I needed that extra volt! heres a pic all completed and ready to go!

[Gregory East]

50 odd watts?

[DJ Higgumz]

not much of a video but heres the LEDs in action (the sub isn't hooked up)

[Gauss]

That carpet just keeps coming.

[DJ Higgumz]

haha if it was pro audio I would do duratex, but everything else in a car is carpet so why not? don't worry my t60s are duratexed, I learned my lesson!

[DJ Higgumz]

has anyone dealt with the led strip lighting? I can't figure out how to solder jumpers to each strip, it is soo frustrating

[Tom Smit]

Apply a dab of solder to each point/wire/strip/whatever. This is called "tinning". Once you have everything "tinned', then hold the wire to the strip, and heat. Remove heat immediately when solder melts.

thanks I got them all ready for installment! I plan to put it in tomorrow!
