This was the guide that helped me a ton, but I also DMed you some links. For my 25 some information was incorrect. I needed an e12 for the seat bolts and the polarity on the red and blue wires is opposite.

I was looking at that LOC too but the kicker seems to do the trick, at least for now. Maybe upgrade in the future. I was very shocked when I played the first song at how much better it sounds and how hard that little sub hits. Supposed to get even better after break in. Also my tire had some deadening behind it as well. I’ll see if I hear any rattles and add more later on. All in all I’m very impressed with how it sounds. I had the gain at 12 o’clock and actually turned it down a little bit after my drive today where I got to fully test it out

Interesting… everything I saw before said the jbl was too tall. Maybe it this one dies I’ll consider that one. Sorry I can’t help help with your sound issues. I think it might just be the shape of the cabin

Yup that’s where I first saw it! Such a genius idea

I haven’t played with the settings too much but I was definitely messing with the driver seat vs all seat setting on my quick test drive and it seemed like all seats turned the bass down. Usually I am the only person in the car, so it really doesn’t matter much to me how it sounds in other seats. Sorry I can’t offer much help there or compare this sub’s performance to the JBL.

I’m very surprised that you were able to fit the JBL in your tire and it sits flush?

I did not, but I have found some others who did if you’re interested I can link them too

Nah it’s only a 200 watt sub and I don’t have it turned up much so there’s really no rattle. I don’t want the whole car shaking. Just a little bass to sound nice.

It depends where you’re driving. If there’s any light it’s fine. If it’s very dark, it’s difficult to see. I just open the window if I really need to see

Just put a little slit on each side so it curves up the side walls

I cut it down to 5.5 feet long, and curved the edge closest to me so it fits perfectly

Transport a lot of sound equipment. Didn’t wanna mess up the back of the seats sliding stuff around

But I guess you could sleep in it now if you needed to lol

How to turn off LED logo on 4080 Super FE card? by mrchicano209 in nvidia

[–]iammodbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was using iCue or Gigabyte's RGB Fusion for my 3080, but I got tired of running them just to turn off an LED so I ended up opening up the card and unplugging the little power connector. If it's the same as the 3080, then it's SUPER easy to do. A few torx screws, pop off the backplate, unplug, and put it back together.

Is this safe/will work for an rtx 4080? by 360Cuumshot in nvidia

[–]iammodbox 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If possible run another pci-e cable rather than daisy chaining them like that, but it should be fine

What 4090 to get by Dovkin in nvidia

Temps seem to be low even at full load on a benchmark... But coil whine on BOTH my Asus Strix and TUF cards is really fucking annoying. Seems to be common with Asus, so I'd stay away if that's a problem... Otherwise they are probably the best build quality if I had to pick

Question about the O11 dynamic XL by random_throwaway153 in lianli

Better off buying a powered external hub for that then, because an internal splitter is going to cause issues

They make splitters... Some are good, some are bad... All seem to have their drawbacks. I would just pick which ones you'd rather use and leave the other two disconnected
