Welcome to my page! This webpage has been my little baby for four or five years. It does not say member since on my profile, so I just do not know anymore. For most of that time my page 5 was home to a plethora of car audio links. Having so many links on one page was not only intimidating to some n00bz, but also just very unappealing visually. Being in college for so long (dont laugh!), it kinda taxes your ability to do much installing or having the nice equipment that youve learned all about. I take all that passion and hours of reading up on car audio and put it all into the successor of my old link page:

Tight budgets can leave you with nice equipment uninstalled. I purchased a Resonant Engineering HC 15 in July, 2003. The JBL BP1200.1 that I bought used came dead on arrival. My insurance claim with the USPS was finally honored the following December, but budget forced me to use that money to pay off bills. FINALLY in July, 2005 I purchased a Hifonics BX1500D amplifier to power my new baby. Waiting two years for that sub was well worth it!

Taking a step back to November, 2004, I picked up a set of the Resonant Engineering RE series component set. Not long after that they were installed in the doors in modified and partially deadened stock locations. If you are in the budget for some entry-level SQ drivers that really perform, I suggest you give these a serious look!

My project from May, 2004 to May, 2005 was my girlfriend Janes old 1994 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. The installation had been a complete pain in the behind. First the head units wiring harness went bad. I had to wait for a replacement from an online parts store. Running the power cable and getting to the battery was a project to itself. I also somehow got some 5.25 coaxials in the stock 4 locations in the dash. I was battling an alternator whine problem. I finally bypassed the preouts and used a Walmart LOC on the speaker wires :) I think I was able to manage a 132 or 133 on the Termlab with that setup.

Enough of this history of me. On to the pages of sonic bliss!!!

So keep posted to see what I do! Please feel free to EMAIL ME with any comments or suggestions at any time!
