yo anyone know if theres someone i can go to or something i can do to unlock my eclipse deck..? IT locked itself because my pops was working on my car and he disconnected the battery.. and whenever you do that to an eclipse deck (the newer ones) it will automatically activate the security anti theft feature. I put in my key cd but it rejected it. And now it says in the manual that i need to send it back to eclipse so they can reset it, fuck that shit.

^^yes...yes that shit is. Trips me out cause the JL subs are tricky. They will claim 500 watts RMS but when you put 1000 to them they will do fine. I red your specs on there site awhile back and they give actual ratings but its like a green up to red level. they will not warranty the subs past there recommended watts.

I thought I should share my recent www.sonicelectronix.com problems. This site used to be good but I dont think I am recommending them to anyone else after all the shit they have put me through trying to return my products cause of my child on the way. Here is the actual posts I made on there support site. Yes i had to do it online cause there RMA department works from 9am to 1:30pm. I later found out they actually work till 5p but 1:30p is when the phones turn off. Also 9am open is a crock of shit cause I called and got a busy signal till about 10:15AM. There busy signal means the phones are off. Anyhow here ya go.

It shows you guys received this item this morning. I am wondering when a
check is mailed out to me for my refund? I was also told I would be getting
a refund for RMA-8318 which was originally a replacement issue until I
decided for a refund. Please let me know.



Thanks



Cory Cisneros

on?

12. From adiem on May 8, 2007, 6:11 pm (time for this reply: 4 hours, 8 minutes)
We have received your rma. We weren't able to get to it until now. We
have processed your return and applied the appropriate credit to your
account. You will be issued a check shortly and it will be sent as soon
as possible. Thank you.

13. From user on May 9, 2007, 2:11 pm
where can i view the credit on my account online? and how will i know
when the check has been issued?

14. From user on May 9, 2007, 2:21 pm
nevermind I found it but I am a little confused. I see a credit of
$519.87 but with everything returned it should be more like $723.29.
You guys are leaving off the other amp that got moved to a seperate
order I think. Although I requested two RMAs and this one was given for
both requests. order 210737 and order 208878 should both be credited
back to me as you have all of the products back. The sub box was sent
first as an exchange but then was requested a refund. Then i send back
the cap, the two amps and the dynamat. which brings the total up to
723.29.

i heard this too...im gonna go cop me some and see what tha deal is....
if the fuses is fucked up, can the amp light still come on from certain shit???

cause i have the lightbulb tester and the shit came up w/ power....so who knows....seems like just a shitty connection but that would be too simple cuz we already re-did that shit.....
also my cd deck aint working either....

thanx tho!

I'm finally installing my second amp to power my components and have a few questions.

Do I need to run another remote wire from the deck to the second amp? Can I run a wire from one amp's remote input to the other instead?

Should I get bass blockers or just use the crossovers that came with my Infinitys?

let's see if you can answer this one.... i bought 2 rockford fosgates 15" T1's and i wasnt really thinking about if they were gonna be too big for my car or none of that shit cause i just wanted my system to bump loud & burn almost anyone with it, but when i took my car to a shop where they install systems they said they cant make a ported box for me because the size of my trunk wouldnt allow the box to be big enough for the air space that it needs. What do you think, were they being lazy & didnt want to do it? or is that shit true?
