Don't let the opinions of the average man sway you. Dream, and he thinks you're crazy. Succeed, and he thinks you're lucky. Acquire wealth, and he thinks you're greedy. Pay no attention. He simply doesn't understand.

ok after some quick google work i can gather that a car amp rack is just a sheet of wood that your amps are mounted to, some people all add in crossovers for spits to make it more fancy.
some can be panels that have hinges to swing down in order to change wiring etc. other racks can be hidden behind false panels so no one will know they are there.

it means nothing to what it sounds really, just something to mount amps to

The best engine in the world is the vagina, it takes any size piston, its self lubricating, starts with 1 finger, and every 4 weeks does its own oil change. It's just a pity the management system is so f**king temperamental.

that sounds very profitable you know. sell people amp racks for lots of money when really its just a sheet of mdf.

The old USSR had a single time zone. They had a hammer and sickle in the ground near the Kremlin much like a sundial.
Arguments raged for years as to what to call the timezone
Moscow Time?
Comrade Time?
In the end they all agreed.
Hammer Time.
