  1. Aww, look at the little fella.
  2. You tell him to go clean the weeds out of a field using a corn knife, and once the blisters heal up he'll be thinking differently.
  3. Anyone know anything about a Dynaco Pat-4 preamp?? Theres on in the classfieds in le chithole for 20bucks shipped and I'm thinking of picking it up. I found some stuff while doing a google search that it seems like it was a pretty good one back in the 60-70's but now its really passed up by modern solid state elctronics. Anyone know of them?
  4. My brother left his Sprinfield XD (9mm) at home with some rounds for me to play with
  5. When you lean to drive a manual on the chittiest transmssion ever (my old truck) and then hone your skills in 2 ton trucks and a semi, you can drive basically anything.
  6. It took me a little bit to discover where the fudge neutral was. Going from heavy duty truck transmissions to a short throw 5spd took a second or two to get my bearings straight. After I figured out how short the throw actually was, smooth as silk grabbin the next gear.
  7. Drove a friends 02 mustang GT, they sure as hell aren't kidding about the "Short Throw" when you install a short throw shifter, goll damn. I loved it though.

    CB, you have an extreme wealth of knowlege right at your fingertips with this forum and others, that people would have LOVED to have a couple years ago, 'tis best to listen (actually listen) to Everything.
  9. Sad to hear man.
  10. alot?? lol, i'm sure it's been measured before, i'm certian of it...time for google...lol.. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee 180db = 20000Pascal = 2.9PSI But it isn't the pressure that causes problems but the dynamic pressure changing. To give you an idea, Boeing uses 180-185db to mechanically stress metal to failure. This is the reason HT guys really build the piss out of their enclosures so that the energy built in the box causes no coloration or resonant energy to be added to the signal. Thanks! When I finally get around to building my little home speakers I will do a resonant measurement and post a video for you all. It will be a while though since I might move first. Ohh, sweet. I'm very interested in this. Excuse me for forgetting, but you are going to KSU in Manhattan no? I might have to do a measurement on some pistachio's there sometime this fall, if so maybe we can even measure your speakers. I can't promise anything yet as my job title could change drastically in the next couple of weeks but eh, wtf? Yep, I'm at KSU in manhattan. That would be sweet as hell, I would even build some other test models as well that we could play with. If you do come down sometime, give me a week or three notice if thats possible. Of course. If I can make it happen we will try. That is awsome Very true, my dad graduated from KSU with a BS in Mechanical Engineering, he worked at a machine shop up in Detroit for awhile, his boss liked his education so much and his knowledge that he hired another person sight unseen JUST BECAUSE THEY GRADUATED FROM KSU.

  19. Pressure top
  20. I've been wondering, exactly how much pressure can be generated in a subwoofer box (in PSI please).
  21. Thinking outside the box is what got this hobby where it is today.
  22. Just glued the front baffle on one of my towers, I discovered we need more clamps also.
  23. I love them big machines.
  24. What kind of powerplant did that dozer have, detroit?
  25. You'd be surprised what lurks around that people have. You can have multiple vehicles pulling on something though to get it out ya know... They could rent two D-8 Cats for a couple days...
