Thanks for the link Natedog, lots of good info to take in.... Question... when you said you didn't check if the front cvd's were (in phase), what exactly did you mean?

The pins in the CVDs, you want both the L and R sides to be the same direction.

_ _ = phase

| | = phase


_ | = Not in phase.



Hope that makes sense..
