First off after 6 great years my wedding is in 18 days!! And I just found out i'm going to be a father!!!!!! That's the best wedding gift EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So I was at my local shop last weekend picking up some ring terminals for the big 3. I start tellin the owner what my new setup is going to be and wouldnt you know...hes talkin shit!!! Its not like I never bought stuff from him before. Hell the subs in my truck now are from him. So its like...Btl? Whats this? It looks like a spaceship. See look at those baskets. Thats an old style. People dont use those anymore...Sundown? Ya I think a guy came in here with that crap. 4500 watts? No, never man. Maybe 1875 at most...Yadda, yadda, yadda. I kept my cool and just let him run his mouth. I'll just let my system do the talkin for me. Cant wait to go back and blow that hairpiece …

i donno if i can do this.... or even what ihop means.... but i figured i pretty much messed up the texas heatwave topic with my banter. sooooo texas memebers can have open convo here??? WHOOOOP

Anybody care to take a stab at guessing what the shortest complete sentence is in the English language is? When I say shortest I mean least amount of letters/syllables.

I'm dying to order an Xcon 18 but my Mountaineer keeps begging for attention, differential, power steering, trans fluid needs to be flushed, egr is sheared, the list goes on >:[ I understand the subjective nature of the question, but I've never owned SQ oriented woofers before, except for my IDQ15's that is. Is that the same clean clear effortless bass I can look forward to with an Xcon, but with more oomph behind it? I love the ID's but they don't get loud at all. Exceptional for HT use though =] I've wanted an SSA woofer since the original blue cap icon, and by god the wait is killing me this year! Daydreaming helps the time pass. I'm not sure if I …

This is only to those few that have shown that they are of upstanding character and have in not contributed to the ignorance I witnessed today; I thank you for your help in car audio, I have learned a great deal in the past 7 months. Also and more importantly I apologize to you. I kinda went off at CA.com and said a few really messed up things. Wether you read or not or even give a crap I just wanna apologize. Please understand that I am just fed up with the anti-mexicanism that is so prevelant at every single website that I have ever been to and even more fed up at the fact that it is okay with everyone. But, this is beside the point; in my anger I resorted to the same s…

Cheers brother! Happy berfday.

I've been seeing alot of ages fly by the last couple weeks and have to wonder if there is anyone older than me hanging out here. I hit 41 in April. I competed in the late 80's early 90's but between kids and going back to college at 29 (1993 for you math junkies) I fell by the wayside and just kept a nice system for my own tastes. I am now thinking of jumping back in the lanes and have a dedicated partner in my son who will be 16 next month, and wonder if there are many of us old timers left still lurking :ph34r: about.

baiscly i got pulled over fo rmy music cuz i aint see the cop, no ticket given but he was an ass. But he said i needed a liscense to have an amplified vehicle, i looked up the ordinace rules for indianapolis, and it bascly says u need a liscense if ur a commercial driver, say for like an ice cream man or somethin, nothin about non commercial use. LMAO, he was like i could write you a 500$ ticket <--that was perfect but when it comes down to it i say racial profiling, i mean people drive around all day blastin there music around here, i mean serriously it could be 2am and people still cruise around, wt there music up loud, guess he was havin a bad day and didnt want…

If they have a very, very large budget ... I vote for Kent. I guarantee they'd have to replace axles, panels, etc after every race ... but hey, he'd give thr crowd a show.

I got scammed out of my amp by Bakedboy08 on here and I don't know what to do because this has never happened me before. Am I pretty much screwed over because it was a trade agreement and not a sale? I already made a feedback add for the whole transaction. Is that pretty much all I can do??

Take the step to freedom from the hell hole of walmart. Join me and my crusades to stop using walmart for anything. Anything you can get at walamart you can get elsewhere, usually for a dollar more and a hell of alot less hassle and retardation. Ive been hating walmart for a while now but today was the straw that broke the camles back. Today i went in to get a Multi Meter and some black satin paint and some masking tape. The only multi meter they had that was digital was $17...17 freaking dollars...only thing i use a MM for is measuing AC voltage and occasionally DC voltage...i paid $5 for my last one, which used internal batteries and could not be reserected once it…

I am sure this is all over the internet by now, but, let's see what people know here A plane is standing on a runway that can move (some sort of band conveyer). The plane moves in one direction, while the conveyer moves in the opposite direction. This conveyer has a control system that tracks the plane speed and tunes the speed of the conveyer to be exactly the same (but in opposite direction). The question is: Will the plane take off or not? Will it be able to run up and take off? I know the answer, do you?

I'm sure this will get deleted since some of you are JP fanboys

My official title is "Gatekeeper". I open and close gates remotely from an office and keep track of people going in and out of those gates (about 30-50 miles away) for a drilling company doing natural gas exploration on private property. I work 6AM-2PM, M-F. Most of the time I just sit here and surf the internet with not much else to do.

As it has started to gain more world wide attention and acceptance is growing, thought it would be an interested topic. I've been progressively going in little by little since 2017. Who else has been messing with it and what projects/coins are you big on?

so i orderd my alt from ireggi and i got it in about 4 days after placing my order, but when i open the box to install it i find out that its the wrong one i placed my order on the 5th of may and got it on the 9th, so the service at first was great but then after that it all went to chit, i have been trying to call him about 5 times a day every day since the 9th and its now june 3rd and i have yet to get him on the phone once. I have written about 50 emails and only have gotten like 4 responses. One of the responces was suppost to be a return shipping label that i could print out to send the wrong alt that i have now back so i can get the right one sent back. after he ema…

Has anyone started classes yet? I'm sure have, let me hear how they went...

Is great. I mean, I visit some other forums, deal with the crap, come here and learn, and of course bullshit. Realize that I'll never meet 99.5% of you guys, but you all are great. I was just thinking you know, this place is awesome. No bullshit, quality members, and a great staff. It's not often where you can find a forum such as this (SIN is similar), where guys go absolutely out of their way to find you deals on equipment. During this past week I've had the chance to deal with three different people merchandise wise. Flawless transactions as expected. All three of these people went out of their way to help me out, and I don't quite think just how much they know how…

You just have to love crown and coke, yes??????

Hey guys, We had a little meet-up today in San Marcos... just a few people including myself, Jon, Alex (inkfx) and Hugo (onebadmonte). Did a few TL runs, attracted the attention of a kid who drove by and tried to sell some Kicker subs to Jon (thanks btw I still have a slight headache haha). Scores (Correct me if I'm wrong): Hugo - 135.8 ? Alex - 139.6 Matt - 143.1 Jon - Umm.... technical difficulties?? lol! Loud as hell but the TermLab wasn't registering it for some reason

I am not sure if I mentioned it before, but something fun on the side I (well machines) have been doing is contributing to some distributed computing projects through BOINC. BOINC uses the unused CPU time on peoples personal machines, the most famous being SETI. SETI is based out of UC Berkley and is the most popular project. Some of the projects are very interesting and are quite important to science research and development, many dealing with protein folding, quantum mechanics, AI, bio-chem, deep space radio signals, and physics etc. The reason for this topic is a call for help for the team I am on > SETI.USA. For every work unit crunched by a team member, credi…
