Well, here is the deal: Ikesound is out of DEI 1100D5's, so when I returned mine because it wouldn't power up, they said that I can have store credit (haha), so I emailed them back and told them I want a refund. I am probably going to go with a pair of the US Amps IS series amps (IS 2200 and IS 4065). I will be splitting up the crossover on my 3 way rainbows to run the midrange and tweeter off of 2 channels and the midbass off of the other 2 channels of my amp. I have 2 long runs of rca's and 4 short pairs for what I previously planned on doing, so that is a factor. I also heard that it is bad for sq to have multiple processing devices, so that is why I am kind of weary of getting an external crossover. If I manage to sell my eqt's for $125, I would probably have ended up paying another $125 for an external crossover, so $50 more for a used dqx would be a pretty good deal. That is all of my thoughts on the topic.

Anyone get the hook up on audiocontrol stuff? I am looking into the DQX's

Awesome. I may have some US Amps gear in my car in the near future.

Wow thats pretty cheap. My insurance is like $1750 every 6 months. I am also under 21 and driving a sports car though. I also have full coverage.

Well that sucks. Looks like I will be running my pair of RE 8s on 300w for the time being.

It had a side of pineapple, some crackers with cheese spread, a chocolate chip brownie, some grape kool aid for a 12 oz thing of water, some coffee, a mini tabasco bottle, and a few other random things.

Those things are pretty cool, you mix some water with this package and it heats up the main course. They have some good food in them too. I had beef ravioli tonight.

I got me some free canned drinking water and a case of MRE's from FEMA though.

Well, no going out for me this weekend, stuck cleaning up after this damn hurricaine.

He got a new optispark and waterpump so that takes care of the 2 things that go out together and end up costing lots of money. I would check the vin and make sure it is a clean title, also see how well maintained it is. Sounds like a pretty good deal though. Everything that usually goes out on the car has been replaced.

Awesome, go to www.putfile.com for the video uploading.

News for you chipitole fanboys: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050921/ap_on_..._s_chipotle_ipo I don't know whether that is good or bad. The food will be more mass produced, but there will be more places to get it.

Hooray for 8's! Kind of sucks about the 4 more weeks though, but I guess that will give me plenty of time to make a box or 2 for when they arrive.

Does anyone know how to burn dvds with a lot of video on them? I have a few seasons of family guy and nero only wants me to burn 3-4 episodes at a time.

Just because you have never seen it doesn't mean it hasn't happened. In Panama, my friends were hanging out of the back of the truck I was driving and yelling at girls to jump in (pretty much what everybody does in panama) and we got pulled over by a bike cop and he handcuffed them and made them sit on the side of the road and then he made us pour out 1 1/2 cases of beer. He also wrote them tickets for MIP's. I got off clean though, because I wasn't drinking. We were just a bunch of white boys so I don't think they singled anybody out in this case.

For me at least.

Did anybody see this? http://forum.soundillusions.net/showthread.php?t=54413 The new z06 is going to be crazy. I might get a used one when I get out of college and start making money.

I still haven't tested out my DEI 1100D5, I need to make sure it works before the warranty period is up.

I need to work on an amp rack for my car so I can still use the t-tops. Is there anything wrong with mounting an amp straight up? I am probably going to put it along the back and make it look like it is built into the rear section of the car from the inside.

Baton Rouge is now the largest city in Louisiana and the roads don't support all of the extra traffic, especially around campus.

Traffic is freaking horrible over here.

Well I enjoyed my week off due to the hurricaine but we have an extra week of school at the end. It kind of sucks.

My car should have this stance tomorrow: This guy's car sold me on the springs that I bought.

The infinity or another speaker?
