The stupid french said that things could get worse than Chernobyl. But most of the other voices say that is the absolute worst case scenario. Either way, seems like they are working to keep things under control...

Photoshop maybe ? I see no reason for a ute, unless they would want to get on the australian market and compete with Holden

That's my MO with stupid people

I kinda miss Ramos's stories

The moped is finally fixed. The reed block turned out to be at fault.

I thought all Cummins are 12 volt systems...

Was a chevy right? 02 silvy 6" lift For braided lines: http://www.goodridge.net/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/topcategories_-1_64_10551 For pads I'd check EBC's offerings. Not sure on rotors...

And flaring your own is an even more serious bitch. I've flared plenty of copper, never steel, but never had a problem with copper. I was about to suggest copper for that application.

Steel braided lines ? Or just the hardlines ? EDIT: sloooow...

Good weather = good productivity. Can't wait to start fiberglassing on the trunk install tomorrow

Maybe I should tell him an old romanian saying...when 2 people tell you you're drunk, go to sleep...

Not CB, that username has been around for some time, I remember thinking a long time ago that he has some knowledge...Too bad the discussions always sway in another direction.

That might just actually be true

As soon as I have a camera again...

1. The most abuse I can imagine are vertical shocks from when you hit a bump and you have a lot of mass suspended from the suspension. 2. That big mass will not allow a downfire or upfiring situation.

It's kinda crazy...and I want to go ported instead of sealed...more head scratching

Reactive loads is what makes it REAL power. Resistive loads don't prove anything, you don't listen to resistors, and it's called impedance because it changes. You don't have x ohms all the time. If it's rated for 1 ohm, you may never go below 1.6 during play, that 1 ohm power isn't what you're getting. Doesn't matter if the load is resistive or reactive as long as in testing I have the same impedance... Resistive loads are much better for repeatability. Please tell me you don't look at THD spec on an amp to compare them. There is no standard for THD measurement. Distortion could vary at a given frequency, voltage, anything. Beyond that, do you have any idea how distorted subs are to start with? I'd be willing to bet up to 10% distortion, the ear can't differentiate. Distortion will increase power on a meter, fully clipping however will show LESS power. Obviously it counts for measurement comparisons. We're not talking about differences in listening here, we are talking about measurements on 2 amps, don't try to sway the argument there with subwoofer distortion A simple oscilloscope and making sure the signal is perfect at the moment of measurement clears things up. Or at least gives a valid reference point. Fully clipped signal contains more power than a clean signal of the same amplitude... That signal in testing could have been clipped to all hell for all I know and if I measure with a clean signal I probably won't get the same result. The more distortion, the power...simple... Personally I've seen systems that kept gaining score as long as I could turn the gain knob. And it was serious clipping there... for me arguing that the score was a certainty the signal was clean is not going to work.

Happy Birthday J ! ! !

Almost done with my latest box build. Still have a couple trim pieces to wrap in vinyl but all is well. Turned out better than expected. Too bad I don't have a camera And I have to start working on a copy of this:

I don't want this to turn into a for sale topic...

I see your schwartz is as big as mine.... Yogurt has taught you well. May the schwartz be with the both of you... May your schwartz be in a warm, wet place. I wish that would be the truth right now

^^This. Very sad situation. It is horrible right now, very upsetting. The images on TV were horrible...I can't imagine being there. Aftershocks every 15-30 minutes supposedly.

I see your schwartz is as big as mine....

Mud drive today... Had to check a work site and ended up taking some dirt roads. Which in the spring are all thick mud.

...most of the DD crowd scares me...
