not pissed or anything but by continuing to post without any interest in the device is a bit against the classified rules. But I do thank you since it has kept it coming to the top...lol either way you've not posted where you see that price because if that is readily available at that price and you can send me the link then I'll adjust mine so I can sell it already... thanks!

Despite all the shit im going through im turning into something much better than I was. I lost >200 pounds and people would comment, "Have you lost some weight?". The last 10 pounds or so changed everything. I can't power lift heavy with the calorie reduction I am at now, so I have started working my gymnastics and martial arts. Also I have been getting some spine straightening at my massage place. The small posture changes have been intense. I havent had this much attention since I was 21. My ego is starting to take up entire rooms.

Thought you had it already...was wondering where the test shots were

Of my last 10k shots i bet 8k were of people/living things that are moving.

...but that wouldn't be any babys

Out of my last 3000 shots I bet more than 500 of them are at 100.

I started to work on my port. Trunk builds are the most difficult IMO. I want to keep the port external. The more I sink the port into the enclosure the less net airspace I have and the longer the port gets. I have to make the port longer (externally) but here's how it goes...

Thanks for checking out my build log! The stock air intake goes over the top of the stock battery. I am going to use a XS Power S3400 battery and large battery terminals. To get more space I installed a INJEN cold air intake. I had to retrofit this to my car. Stock INJEN installed

Would it be safe to assume, that this new product would also help keep a car cool, with the air on in the hot summer months?

worldwide ! Same prices in Martinique or in France too !

Apple controls the price nationwide btw.

People ask me this alot... the short answer is that they make the speaker better. The long answer can be shown on some graphs. This graph shows inductance over excursion for a basic motor design. The center is at rest, left is rear stroke, and right is forward stroke. Why is the graph shaped this way ? Have you ever looked at inductors for a crossover ? You can get a high value in a small package with an iron core. So... what is a speaker motor ? A partially iron core inductor! As the coil moves back it gets more iron in the core! So the inductance rises. As it moves forward it gets more air in the core so it drops. Pretty cool, huh ? Now... the field can be absorbed by a conductive material in or around the coil -- so shorting rings come into play. One approach, which we use on the SA series and NS v.2 series, is a pole cap shorting ring -- note how it reduces forward inductance and at rest inductance. But not much in the way of rearward... Well the NS v.2 and Z v.2 both have a large magnet ID ring -- notice the huge effect on rearward inductance and at-rest inductance ? As a note... the SA will also have this ring shortly too. Now... having BOTH rings like the NS v.2 has now and the SA will have soon... huge effect across the board! Not only is the inductance more linear but it is much much lower. Why is this good ? 1) More power delivery to the coil as inductance causes "rise" 2) Less distortion -- inductive distortion is odd order and unpleasant; although a fairly small part of total distortion. 3) More high-end extension as inductance is a 6dB per octave low-pass crossover. 4) These rings also act as heat-sinks; although this effect is not a large reason to use them in and of itself. Can a speaker sound good without them ? Sure! Many great sounding speakers don't use them and they are pretty expensive too so don't always represent a good price to performance ratio. I do not plan to use magnet ID rings on lines less expensive than the SA series, for example, as the ring represents such a high % of the total cost of the speaker at that point (large chunk of aluminum, copper, or brass). But they do have benefits and I figured some of you might like to know what those are.
