What you said Dennis about the wire being on the wrong terminal was light bulb city for me I would almost bet I will find I put the wire on the wrong side of of the rectifier and when I swap the wire to the other side power it up the relay will click and I will have output... I kind of figured it would turn out to be something stupid simple.... as homer simpson would say.. doh

edit... have to apologize calling Perry woplsniffer Dennis navlinear I guess I got names cross wired in my brain like my wiring I need to go get some sleep been a long day I'll let you all know how it goes and I do have pics (out on shop pute) just did not get a chance to up load them and I'll get a couple pics of finished amp to post as well

Amp is done and all hooked up got to hear it for first time through my big speakers all I can say is.... WOW I knew it would sound good and like everyone said the bass will be much tighter and it is but the biggest surprise to me are the highs and depth I am getting from my speakers it's like when I built these speakers 20+ years ago I built them for this set up everything gels together real nice.. here are some pics for your all enjoyment :happy3:

lol Ron not sure what I will do next for a project.. I need another riding lawn mower I had a 1969 Toro I hot rodded a bit I put a straight pipe on it a bigger carb, high flow air cleaner and got rid of all the governor crap.. that thing used to go like hell could mow my 2 acres in under an hour but I guess the old bottom end in the motor could not take it, it through a rod last summer.. so maybe take my electronics hat off and put my wrenching hat on and look around for a new one that needs some TLC.... but then I got that guy up the road with the chevell that wants to get in here....

Drummergrl has two WOPL's now???

Shit - you guys better keep track of where these things are in the country....if they all go on at once it'll really eff up the grid. Worse yet, multiples playing Shpongle and redlining may release California or Florida from the mainland.

First off ... don't coordinate sh!t regarding launching Cali into the Pacific abyss until I've had a chance to move the f&ck out. (soon I hope)

Secondly, I've heard that 'greenies' hate WOPL's because they undermine the whole 'save the planet' thing. So in that regard, sell more ! :laughing8:

California is not going to drop into the Pacific. Maybe the reclaimed lands from water bodies.

The San Andreas is a slip-strike? fault and is pushing sideways as well as forward and besides that, it will take thousands or even millions of years to plow over your house with the earth's crust, Tony.

Now VOLCANIC ERUPTIONS...

that would be cooler on live TV.
