Its been one of those days.
Got up early, dropped my GF off to work. On the way home, a pothole in the road decides to try and take my car out and shocked my headunit. So i had to strip my headunit right down to bear components, clean it all up and then reclamp it all (theres a stupid plug right in the middle thats totally inaccesable and needs a good push as it dislodges going over bumps). Put it back fine, and it worked (thank god).
Had plenty of time so i started to wire up my second amp and my 6x9s. NOt just a simple job as i had no room for them and the parcel shelf needed reinforcing. Best part of the afternoon and evening gone and i've managed to rig up a block which my subs and amps are all screwed to so i can take them in and out if need be. All was going fine..
Cut out the holes for my new 6x9s (Vibe QB69) in the parcel shelf, reinforced it with plywood and trimmed it all out. Mounted the speakers and crossovers all nice and neatly, clipped the wires in and tidied it all up. It even fit! (being jammy i had about 5mm clearance from the 6x9 magnets and the sub boxes).
Still was going fine...
Turned the stereo on
I've never heard such a crappy noise from the speakers in my life I sat and twiddled the amp, removed half the wiring a re-routed it as i thought the distortion was due to a nearby power line - still no luck. Found that it was only 1 speaker that was actually doing it, so had set the amp up as it should be, then changed up the crossovers (ruining all my wiring) and still made no difference.
Finally took the faulty one out, and found the cone was bent up at one corner . So now gotta rip all my wiring out, package the speakers up and send them back to get a replacement.
So now im left with naff all rear speakers as my old ones no longer fit, 2 gaping holes into the parcel shelf which show off my pair of subs to potential thieves, im freezing cold, and i cut my finger.
All in all, i should have staying in bed
