do the individual companies like rockford, pheonix gold, etc make their own? or does 1 big company like GE make them for RF, PG, etc?

correct blueledz, well i don't have a circuit city where i live (calgary, canada) but at soundsarround he kept feeding me SO MUCH BS! i couldn't beleive it!!! he said my system was gonan fry becuase i was putting too great a load on my speaker amp which is running at 2ohms, it says right on the box, "2OHM stable Stereo operation", that is the equiv. of 4ohm mono, like every amp can handle 4ohm mono.. what a dumb *** plus ive been running my system for about 2months no.. no problems. And to add to that he said ?" MDF was crap for sub enclosures (i only have 2 10's) becuase their was too much vibration, he said fiberglass was way better lmao FIBERGLASS IS WORSE! i believe he also mentioned something about 2v preouts have less sound quality than 5v and than i should just ditch my whole system and replace it with one that he made up.. WTF! its true you can have a better sounding system with 5v... if your in a competition!!!!! i only have my system to listen to when i go to work and i wanted SQ and i got it.

Right in the middle of asking him a question he just leaves and helps/talks to another customer.... so im like WTF, to make it worse he BS'd that chic too. He told her to run the most expensive alpine amp they had on display to power 1 10" Type S alpine sub.. omg.. talk about trying to rip her off, man i feel sorry for her because she actually fell for it, she didn't really know that much about car audio. LOL she admited that she didn't know how to install it so the guy said the shop could do it and quoted her like 300 dollars to install an amp and a sub!!!!!!

The little bastard also implied i was too stupid to install my stereo and alarm when i asked him for an estimate of how much it would cost to do the whole thing, i only asked him becuase i wanted to know how much i saved doing it myself (my system/alarm was already installed and working perfectly).

LOL he also said that if i add a Capacitor to my system it will make it so the sub amp will have its own powersource giving you better sound quality LOL!!!!!!!! sounds like he was implying that when i add a cap i make power from nothing!! i told him that if i have a weak alternator it won't help my stereo if i add a cap since the alternator has to charge both the battery and the cap. the cap only comes into play when their are large bass notes and the battery can't discharge fast nuff to supply the amp so the cap fills the gap since it can discharge faster. He then says im wrong and the cap makes its own power or some BS and it doesn't matter what kind of alternator i have as long as i have lots of caps, and "this is proven through ohms law" so i was like.. oh **** it and i leave. i don't think im ever going back to that retard again

It was Stewart, Hes a former BB employee. 2 weeks ago he wanted me to drop a year old X1001 into a guys car and pretend it was new.

Actualy left tweeter for a short time but I am soon to return.

 

The only cap tweeter carries is Monstercable which look the same as everything else. I know MOnster usualy has very high specs to build to. I have realy liked their connections and designs, as far as what they build themselves or how their better I don't know.

I didn't think you actualy came up here seeing is how we don't carry Blua and all

I'm not realy sure by what you mean by a solid state cap, If your refering to the alumipro caps then my only info is Xtant reccomended against it saying a second battery close to the amp produced higher in car results for them then a 15 farad Alumipro.
They mentioned the electrical properties of a good deep cycle battery is better then the caps.

Speaking of stroker their was a compeditor at the New England SLAP finals with a 15" stroker in an SQ car. He actualy did very well according to the judge aka my buddy Mike. Their was also a P5 from Rhode Island with 3 MA audio 12"s and a nice install. Didn't listen to it though.

 

I had a rep from BB try to tell me the same information. One he probably didn't understand the ohm's law...lol E=I*R...etc
He probably thought it was a law set by the state.....lol
It is funny how many reps don't know **** about anything. One guy told me that the California Bajas would wind up being the best in a bandpass box..lol BANDPASS?!?! I made my own sealed enclosure and it kicked the **** out of one of their bandpass setups..lol Not to mention he tried to tell me an Type E alpine sub would be the best sub I could ever buy. That was bullshit.
