Bronze Member Username: Matt_ukPost Number: 21 Registered: May-07 | A friend told me that my headlights and other lights in the car will dimn when the bass hits, i have a system in at the moment and the speedo and dash lights dimn - the jl's are way more power consuming.Is there anyway of getting round this? and is my 'friend' an unreliable source for information? |
