Alan Palmer

i've been attempting to get a puppy for the last few weeks... everything seems to have fallen through. had a new born cockapoo that was rescued, and 3 days before i was picking him up for good, the lady decided she couldnt give him up, and the few i've found at the human society have been on hold and picked up by others... heres to hoping though! gorgeous dogs. mans best friend.

the way i look at it is, everyone on here is a person. every person has an attitude, a set of beliefs, and a certain amount of knowledge. and on top of that, everyone has an opinion. on everything. never fails. the sharing of said opinion should never be frowned upon. picked apart, torn down, changed... fine. but not made fun of, or "bashed". many of you run a business. speak on here as you would speak to a customer in your shop. telling people they're stupid and wrong wont make them want to listen. yes, there are too many variables to have a specific answer. therefore, list possibilities.. the BL "could" end up louder. its a high quality sub, and many have seen fantastic results out of it. the type Rs could get loud too. there are quite a few people that have put up some amazing numbers with type Rs. in my "opinion" they sound like a goat getting screwed by a wild boar, but hey.. to each their own.

crumbles ftw. although i remember my toyota pick up.. thing was a block of steel. i would back in to the concrete poles at circuit city as a park assist. i took chunks out.. bumper never even had a scratch. had to roll it to do damage.. anyways, get it straight, and build this box! haha. second one.

idk. he makes sense. you guys are trying to bash the crap out of him, but he gave an honest "opinion"... you know.. those things that people apparently arent allowed to have..

i would angle it backwards by lifting the sides. maybe an inch in the front, and 3 inches in the back. that should be enough room to keep the subs off the floor. i wish i could draw pictures in a quick response. like with my fingers or something. how cool would that be?

more important than the volume and port placement... PICSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

i heard a set up with 2 DD 1508's on 1k.. was freaking nuts. sounded amazing, played everything. id say they easily compete, if not beat the sa 8s.

too many variables

no personal experience with the gear, but navid is an awesome guy. he's been taking a lot of steps in the right direction, and will hopefully provide you with the service that he's promised. solid choice. post up updates!

best bet would be upgrading your alternator, and perhaps adding an extra battery. as for the sub choice, the 4xls or mayhems would be my top choices

gorgeous car. hopefully it gets its self reliable quick for you. looks like you know what you're doing. i look forward to watching it continue to come together. the lights look great, the alarm work is clean, gear choice is great.. hard to find anything bad about it. ) those xxx's can sound pretty sweet. i had a buddy with ~10 pairs of them in his truck. ish jammed.

if you're looking to amp them in the future, theres an ignorant amount of options in your price point. if you want something built to perform at full capacity off head unit power, look into the hertz diecis. DSK-165 is most likely what you will want. great price point, great company to work with if you run into problems, and they'll sound better than 99% of comparable speakers.

still the most impressive car i've ever heard.

if you've got the wood and the ability, try it. wardens can perform amazingly in a bandpass. i personally would talk to these guys about a design. http://www.facebook.com/BassheadsENT

my buddy is 6'7" and prefers porche. just a heads up tall man. ;p personally, i love the exterior. looks like someone took the car and made it unique. you can tell its a specific persons, and not just a random car. install is fantastic!

Real name: Alan Palmer Organization in which you are or will be competing in: DB Drag/Iasca Comp vehicle: 2000 Nissan Maxima GLE Current setup: h/u - pioneer 3100 dvd front doors - 2 sets Hertz hsk xl 165's. 1 set spl show 8". mids/highs power - Hertz ep4-x subs - 4 Hertz spl show 15"s sub amp - DD z-se #22 deadener - stinger roadkill Why you should be part of the team: I am a competitor through and through. I'm constantly working/updating/planning bigger and better things. i love to show off my ride, and am currently the go to guy in my city for all things audio. In the past 2 years I have gone from a single 15" in the trunk, to placing second in the world in my bass race class. Last year I won Florida state finals/southeastern regionals. I've proven my abilities, and am hungry for more. I have a lot of plans, and would be more than happy to put second skin in, and on my car. Below are my competitor stats, and some videos/pics. Thanks for looking! http://www.termpro.com/asp/competitorstats.asp?Competitor_ID=79589&Season=2011&Method=202 http://www.termpro.com/asp/competitorstats.asp?Competitor_ID=79589&Season=2011&Method=212

i've seen some impressive results with death rows. i put up a 136.8 @ 26 hrtz on music with a single 12" off ~800 rms out of the trunk of my maxima. 3.5 cubes, 30 inches of port area, tuned to 28. thing jammmmmed down low. subs are meant to be played low.

did i hear supra? mmmm supra...

throw them in a 4th order, and no one will be able to tell how many subs you have.

looks sick though

They blend VERY well. Also the st25's are VERY musical compression tweeters and no where near as harsh as people may think. Honestly, they arent really "harsh" at all. Vey smooth and accurate i thought as much. i have a team mate that is running the 35s with his spl show 10"s and 8"s, and they sound great in that setting, but i was wary of including them in a set up practically devoid of pro audio equipment. its good to hear that they are as musical as hertz made them out to be. thanks for the input. )

i wish i was able to get my hands on some of those space series speakers... how do the xls blend with the st25s?

as said on another forum.. Just because it seemed she was guilty doesnt mean that she was. That is why the saying goes "innocent until proven guilty"... not "guilty until proven innocent". the prosecution has to prove WITHOUT ANY DOUBT that she was guilty and they failed to do that. If our justice system has failed it is because they couldnt put together a case... 12 jurors 12 not guiltys regardless of what she did or did not do, it had to be proven 100%. it wasnt.

yes please
