No it dont matter how far after the fuse , on your the right track .

I have a video uploading now , it may not be up until the morning its over 130MB , You Tube will convert it from a Mpeg1 to a .flv file , it loses alot of quality but easier for internet viewing , The video is me Removing the rear door skins replacing the Door Speakers , Setting up the new amp , Removing the radio to find a problem , then a test and tune , It includes clips , from over 50 Yards away and you can hear my system plain as day , also an MT Dasani Water Bottle Setting on my center console and vibrating off to the floor , its just under 10Mins of Footage Pretty Cool to me not sure how well it will be receaved , i feel like a Jack *** nararating it but for the sake of possibly helping someone out im willing to take the time to do it ,

I blew the 451S durring tuning with an Iasca Professional Audio CD , I quickly swaped in my Punch for the Polks and Moved the New RF Amp over to my Subs , its about 100 less watts then they was getting , but i could never run it full boar w/o going tone death so its still a nice system with about $2,000 Invested .

I made my own audio test cd with HZ swings up and down using a tone generator , My Tones capture all the FREQ ranges for highs Mids and lows , its a good thing to use when adjusting Crossovers Rather its the default Switch type of the ones with the fine tune ****

Ill upload a Car Audio Test CD with home made and Iasca Tracks, But Im not reliable for Blown Amps or Speakers or ear drums ,

Note when at Low HZ , your subs will be moving like Crazy and you will feal it but not hear it at all its below the human ears range

BTW your Fosgates should be on LP only , Meaning Low Pass , and it blocks the highs , You shouldnt hear any words out of 12" Speakers

I stopped by best buy and here the #'s for the subs-P3D412, and amp- P1000-1BD, I talked to the guy there and he said they should be a good combination.

I didn't buy it yet I'm going to wait a little while so i know if my employer will keep me or not. It's a three month trial period and ends on NOV 11. I shouldn't have any problem keeping the job though. Everyone I work with says i catch on quick. It will be a ported box. and I'm going to run an extra batterie in the tool box. The reason I'm putting another batterie in the tool box is b/c i have a 5 farad capacitor in it now and the lights dim and a noticeable rate and i can see my alternator gauge dance like nuts. An extra batterie should take care of that problemo.
