    Welcome to the IHoP

    Settings for the MLI 6.5

    One set of the vifas and one set of the MLi's should be fine. I wouldn't bother with two tweeters........ Just for the record those XT25 tweeters are very nice. But make sure you have a play with whatever tweeter you get (different mounting locations, on axis/off axis etc...) Jono

    Ha! Nice Mate. My chrissy present from Mach 5 wasn't quite to your level but............ pretty cool! I'm thinking a 15" dust cap could look the goods on the IXL10 in the new year. Jono

    IXL 12" v.1 Recone???

    I don't know if Sam's got any IXL15's in stock in Aust I think its only 18" according to the website?? That may be an issue...... Don't suppose you want to off-load the dead one off really cheap do you?.............. Cause if you do I might have a go at doing a re-cone (BTW was that quote for Aust stock recones or from Mark @ Mach 5??) Jono

    Ouch! How did you do that?
  8. Bahahaha............. I take it your TL score may suffer a little at the moment?
  9. All the imprint I've heard has sounded clinical and boring when used in AUTO mode......... H701 is a great little device and combined with a nice touch screen headunit is VERY good to use (like the W505 above from memory). I'm half tempted to get one myself (although expensive over here in Aust). Jono
  10. Ipod on the eclipse is Meh..... Are you competing in SQ? if yes go the pioneer straight out, if no then continue considering the eclipse (which I own). Functionality of the Eclipse is good but menus can have quirks that will annoy you, overall I'm happy with it. Be careful of the Pioneer internal pico fuses and you should be fine. Jono

    Alpine Type X compnents???

    Please consider that ANY amplifier can kill a speaker (well.... within reason) I've got an ancient Coustic 4x20wrms (about the same as modern headunit power) that will kill speakers rated to 75wrms if it wanted too..... All I have to do is send it a clipped signal which isn't that hard. I know what your saying about matching power, I'm just saying being careful with what you are doing is a better way of protecting equipment IMHO. Learning good "ownership" if that doesn't sound too wanky. To the OP, go listen to some equipment if you can, and let us know what you like (obviously not Kenwood by the sound of it!!) some of the kicker stuff can sound alright for midbass etc but tweeters can leave a little to be desired. Again personal opinion. Jono

    Why? Not necessary.......... As long as your not doing stupid things it'll be fine (and things like HPF are in place so they aren't playing too low freq's etc but that is the same for ALL speakers no matter what the power rating...) Choosing speakers should be more a "what sounds good to you" thing to be honest.

    Its only going to send 2x the rated power if the volume is turned up enough (and the gain settings allow it). Remember the amplifier isn't a light switch it won't produce 150wrms instantly, its a gradual increase. "Normal" listening levels usually require very little power unless cranked while driving etc..... Plenty of people send more than rated power to speakers and are fine as long as you are logical about volume. jono
  14. Nightshades aren't in production anymore if your wanting a new one (and the V2's aren't due for a while). FYI. Might have to hunt for a 2nd hand one around the traps. Jono
