Denver is a happening place, as I'm sure that's where you will end up. I would probably suggest staying around the Cherry Creek area. As that is where all the best restaurants and dankest things are located.

Help choosing tweeters and with installation please.
I had planned on just trimming a dash mat out of enclosure carpet and Velcro'ing it down. Can't say any of the prefab ones look any more appealing than what I plan, but we will see how it comes out . Lol This car will be tuned to my tastes only. I don't compete and do not do demos. I will pull out the evils and start testing with the HDS's at the end of this week. At this point in the game I Am taking a step back and working on training my ears. So back to studying music and studio techniques.

Welcome to the IHoP v.2
And just so you guys know my intentions are not to come across as super intelligent . I am just plagued with a very good memory and it is all for entertainment purposes only. I am super grateful to have such a level headed group of guys to talk to. The last thing I want to do is wear out my welcome or alienate anyone. I've been high strung AF lately. And In all honesty these are the times I usually come to visit the most.

Yes. I actually live at the base of where the Rocky Mountains start on the west side. More of a high desert environment, probably not what people imagine for Colorado. Exactly where I am Is truly the gateway to the west. The farthest mountain in the last picture above is not part of the Rocky Mountains. Any further west and you might as will be in Utah as far as landscape is concerned.

Missed this one. Good to hear from you Randy. Hope all is well with you. Yes I am using time alignment. Also have the right mid playing 3-4 dB higher and I believe the right tweeter 2 or 3dbs iirc. Getting ready to install an h701, so will make more headway rapidly once i can eq separately.

THank you kind sir. Is on the list of to do's, atleast for testing. From what my ear can tell the reflections are not to bad in this car. I did move the tweeter around until I could create audible reflections though, just for reference.. I did some aiming with the Evils and eliminated the rainbow effect. Was jamming the Grand Ole Opry Live last night and sounded like I was in a huge room. I can tell this stuff is only going to get better!! YEAH!!!!!

Subwoofer recommendations (detailed criteria available)
A 15" would be a good start for more efficiency. A larger enclosure will also reward you in efficiency and most likely sound smoother. Tune to 35hz with the largest port allowed will gain you efficiency and be more sq if set up right. As far as sub choices its really personal preference based on what trade off's you are willing to make. If cost and sound quality are the deciding factors then you've answered your own question! Seriously though, I have heard rumors of a new Dcon and Gcon in the works. Don't know when they are being released or how soon your buying, but hey now its out there.

Some pics from my space cruise yesterday, for you flatlanders. Mt. Sopris^ The top is only around 9500 feet iirc. Is an extinct volcano...The crater is the bowl between the far left and middle peak. The far left peak partly covered with clouds in the inside face. Cool thing with this pic is the largest herd of elk in the area cross the foremost field on their migratory route. They migrate in a big oval their whole life, crossing the same place approximately every three days. Where I am standing is the other edge of the oval at its skinniest point. (hunters everywhere lol) The closest ski resort^. Fun fact. Aspen was the first ski slope in the area, after being a mining town. The Olympics choose to train here in 1940 and the rest is history. Was a hippy town until the 80's, Would be hard pressed to afford to live there now a days. lol LOts of hott bitches though. THis^ mountian is not Aspen. More Sopris! The Indian legend is once you see this mountain in person you will not be able to leave the area. A pic into the canyon that's the other direction.^ (east)And the third direction. ^I live between the last set of mountains in the distance. (west) Hope ya'all enjoy now.

There was a hydroponics tomato farm in the town I grew up in. I was fascinated from day one. They had an oyster plant next door, for the feed. was to cool for skool.

Welcome to the IHoP v.2
Is fun to super charge a plant. Considering they are only growing at about 10-20% of their genetic ceiling, in most uncontrolled environments.

Thats really funny when I think about first life forming at the bottom of the sea as protein and amino, in one of the most inhospitable environments on Earth. lol Pantera is breakfast of champions, better than a bowl of outmeal for all them there minerals and nutrients!

A sulfur burner is whats used in a grow environment, to drop surface Ph.

< Is hyper-sensitive and/or allergic to most antibacterials. Which sucks as I work around them all day.

Welcome to the IHoP v.2
Is a product of low Ph that causes the inhospitable environment for microbes ... as is almost all antimicrobial products. The metal toxicity with plants also works by locking up its ability to uptake other nutrients. Although microbes must be present at the root system to uptake nutrients also... as it is the carbon atom the microbe releases that the plant needs to transport all other nutrients. One nutrient can not be implemented by the plant without its counterbalance in check. As seen on Mulders chart, to much copper will lock up the ability to uptake iron and phosphorus. Funn facts lol

Welcome to the IHoP v.2
The old copper toxicity trick. Learned that from the old loggers who would tell stories of pounding copper nails Into trees they wanted to mine in future years.

I'm assuming you already know all the prep. This is my formula for efficiency. First, loosely place as many jumpers (*big stones... that jump a lot of square feet at one time) as possible first. Then worry about filling in the small spaces, and trimming corners of the jumpers to cinch everything together. Work on a fairly large area at one time, will help you from getting stone blind. ( * getting stuck looking for the right stone lol) Take a break or move on to another spot if get stone blind. Have a decent pile of smaller stones laid flat on the ground near you to pick from... easiest to see the general shapes this way when picking. Avoid putting in any crumbs (smaller than 10x10 in this case) even if it requires trimming more off of a big piece. The other thing to make it look clean and professional is keep all the joints 1 inch. Again even if it requires trimming more than you would like. Get a diamond blade for the grinder, to score cuts that are more than just nibbles with chisel. Get a piece of thick angle iron, to place under the stone when chiseling. You will NEED to place the angle iron on a solid workbench or at least wood if on the ground. Place iron in a "^" orientation, so the top edge creates the bottom part of a guillotine. Lots of light taps with the chisel, all the way across the stone. Put your guns on safety, don't just go all Paul Bunyan on it.

Quite a few roasters up here too. Can usually find stuff that's not too stagnant.
