    SQ competitions are very political. I've heard some pretty eye opening stories, but I won't elaborate much as the people involved would prefer the info not to get out. Needless to say, the best car does not always win.

    I also think the install/appearance judging for SQ is bullshit. If I can drive up a $700 hoopty that can lay the smack down in sound quality on a $100k+ car, the hoopty should win hands down. It is a sound quality contest right, not a "what car looks best competition". I've always gotten the impression that SQ competitions have to do a large part with appearance.

    I love my Mag, and the new Mags look awesome, but for some reason, I'm going have to pass on those and get me a few (2 or 3)of the BMs. I'm really interested in those.

    Speaking of the BMs, can we get a picture of them showing the inverted surround that was mentioned in other threads? I'm picturing something in my head, but it looks weird.

    I'm not sure if Nick has a picture of the BM yet, but here is a link to one of the MB Quart subs that uses the inverted surround so you can get an idea of what it looks like...

    A friend of mine used a bunch of different devices and said he preferred a steamer for a good deep cleaning. I think you can get small ones at most big stores (Target, Wal Mart, etc) for about $20. He had one of those $500 vacuum based cleaners like the one above as well for normal cleaning.

    Give me a hammer and 5 min.

    Id have more fun smashing the crap out of them than actually finding a few keepers.

    Hahaha, I would love to rip into a few Barry Bonds style with bat.

    For amplifiers, take a peak at Adcom GFA-555's (versions I and II). I've got one and love it to death. They can be picked up in great condition for about $300-$400 on ebay and audiogon all the time. They are bulletproof solid state amps that can put out gobs of power.

    For the original design you posted up, I would seriously consider separating the subwoofers from the line arrays. You are going to want some flexibility with subwoofer placement and having them attached to the arrays will severely limit that.

    Looks like a fun project! :lildevil:

    We are working out the details now, we hope to have them up very soon.

    Son of a bitch, I went through that whole damn list of smilies and there isn't a boobies smilie.

    I'll put the code down anyways and pretend there is a boobie smilie.

    Did he forget to renew?

    Actually, some domain scalper jumped on it and the host did not protect it like they are supposed to. I believe he is still trying to get it back.

    Shit, that sucks. I hate those damn scalpers, they buy thousands of domains and do absolutely nothing with them.

    That reminds me, I've got a few I need to buy. :ehh:

    Hi guyz,

    Would like to know other websites such as www.audiojunkies.com or www.enjoythemusic.com/news/ to keep up with the news.

    I am more interested in car audio news.

    I also what to know more about overseas news such as other car audio companies (Brax, Ground Zero, HSS Fidelity, etc...), not many might know that Helix (Brax sistership company) have new amplifiers (hybrid tube and SPL), subwoofers (thin line and SPL), and speakers.

    I know about the new Helix and Brax stuff, but their US distributor is taking forever to get me pricing info. To be honest their aren't a lot of audio news sites out there, you can still find a lot of stuff in different forums though.
