FEATURED Hyundai Cilantro.. I mean Elantra!

True... Damn Rabbit Holes!!!! Could be worse, I could be dating and ignoring my car.
3 years ago I got back in by buying a used hu, amp, and sub with wiring for about $150ish thinking I wanted just something simple....a few grand later 🤣🤣🤣

I like the interface of the DM608. Should be the same as the DM-810 that I have. IfI was buyin right now, this


Snag this if you can.


Awesome basic autotune gets you pretty close 80% the way to where you want to be and Dirac Live installed.
 
I just ordered 8 feet of tinned OFC 1/0awg red cable. That Kolossus Flex. Friday I am ordering my H.O. alternator. I have been waiting to use my new battery terminals so this will be the perfect time to install those too. My temporary re-manufactured alternator is sitting at 12.4v in drive with my A/C running. I fear I have a lemon of a reman. Just a little gas pedal and it jumps to 13.6v. So, out with the junk and soon to be in with the funk? Well, you understand.
 
Everything seems to be in order. My 8 feet of 0awg OFC should be here tomorrow and my alternator should be here Jun. 27th. I did make sure what the lug size is on the alternator which is the same size as stock. It is 5/16". Once everything is here I can bust out these cool hydraulic cable crimpers and start all me new connections for the battery.

Also, because I am so damn indecisive, I am going to break out my soundstream rubicon nano 4 channel to bridge on my midbass in the doors. I will run the RF Punch 4 channel on the mids and tweets. FOR NOW. I still can't decide what amp of the three I want to get.

There is the all in 1 solution the D4S JP7
The Phoenix Gold Ti3 6 channel
The Symphony S6

It is going to be one of them dammit!!!! I love the Phoenix Gold because all the connections are on the leading edge just like my RF's and Soundstream.

UGHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Went out to take care of some things today... new tire, now all 4 are new, load test my AGM... it was bad so it got swapped out. Dig this, no Advance Auto Parts had the 124R AGM that I bought so the manager asked if I cared if we swapped it for a 24F AGM... both Die Hard batteries and I said as long as it fits and the terminal positions are the same then sure. The 24F is like 3mm taller, everything else but the mounting notches at the bottom of the case are the same. 10 more cold cranking amps and my 3 years warranty starts over. So, new battery in. This did not solve the alternator problem as I suspected it would not.

I also got my 8 feet of OFC cable in the mail for the new alternator. YAY ME!! 8 feet of OFC is heavy.

I'm getting excited again!!! Found all my battery terminal stuff, 2 more ground cables? Don't know where they came from cause my shitz be grounded. Heat shrink, ferrules, big arse ring terminals, battery terminals, braided sleeving for the alternator cable. I am hoping some of the red will show through the black sleeving.

Is there a BT, USB or other AUX option? May be time to convert your CDs to a solid sate option and use it until you replace the init altogether.
