Yes. Order all of your audio needs from crutchfield, although a couple of things may be priced a little bit more than some other places, everything they have is quality and you cannot beat their customer service.

My Infinity Basslink stopped working one day, and for the life of me I couldn't figure out why it worked one day and then stopped. Called them, and they told me to send it back, and I received a brand new one in a couple days, no questions asked. Turned out all it was was the ground had come loose some how and there was nothing wrong with the sub. Oh well.

Even with a 5.0F capacitor and a volvo stock 100 amp alternator, having my sysytem all the way up dims the lights on a bass drop.

Quick story... My friends and I have a tradition on July 5th. We do it the 5th because fireworks are like half off...anyway... when we want music, we back my Volvo up into the rock-pit field where we set off dozens of fireworks. I'll pop the trunk and roll down the windows and blast the subs full power. What sucks is I have to run the car the whole time to avoid killing the battery comletely. The bass can be heard from a couple 100 yards away but we sit right next to it. lol.

The guys enjoy the bass and the music while the girls just drunkenly dance and light each others skirts on fire.

All this is the Volvo's big moment to have the spotlight for a few hours. Other than that I don't showcase the car much.

Default Click and rev down...

Any info would be much appreciated

Cheers
Sounds to me like the A/C is kicking on and off.
