  1. What a way to make a first impression eh !!
  2. Denim I'm gonna take a stab in the dark here and go with purple....
  3. Steve how is the Escalade handling the weight thus far ?
  4. No one stock battery and an extra in the trunk won't "tax" the stock alternator... The isolator has nothing to do with the alternator, in fact in simplest terms the isolator is off when the engine is running and on when the engine is off... Some argument can be made that the only "effect" the isolator will have in regards to the alternator is resistance between the alt and the batteries.... In short if you like to play the stereo with the car off get an isolator with the engine on... no isolator If you plan on running more then 2K watts upgrade the Alternator to a HO Alternator based on the amps amperage draw rated through it's efficiency...
  5. I can post SEVERal links that makes this persons post very very wrong... I can point out a few places where he contradicts himself in his very own post that proves he himself is saying MDF is better then particle wood... for example look up Particle wood density look up MDF density MDF is denser then particle wood then look at his posts Ok does that NOT just say MDF is BETTER then Particle wood ??Much more flaws i can point out where he contradicts himself.... here lets look at this one then in the next line he says So he admits that not being airtight causes distortion BUT is baffled why some people are obsessed with making an enclosure airtight... I can point out much more flaws... I am not the all knowing person I am just pointing out he flips flops back and forth.. And i would've thought you caddyon would've picked up on that since you strike me as someone who is on a quest for knowledge... Caddy it comes down to this my friend... MDF cost just a little bit more then PArticle wood a few bucks (2-5 dollars more a sheet).. the benefits are many..... Better sound, better construction, better material, better overall quality for just a few bucks more.. Nobody is saying you CAN NOT build a box out of particle wood, hell you could build a box out cardboard for that matter.. What everyone is telling you is that for a few dollars more you can construct a box with a material that will yield much more positive results then another type of material... So why not use it ?? You keep asking people why MDF, whats so good about it, why is it beter then particle wood and there are so many post that PROVE why it is better... that should lead you to ask yourself this question... WHY NOT MDF ?? Why settle for average when you can get better for only a fraction of the costs...? it's like someone offering you condom with a 90% chance of protecting you from an STD for a $1.00 or a condom that offers a 99.9% chance of protecting you from a STD for a $1.75... Go cheap and hope your not the 10% or just go a little extra for that much more assurance...
  6. Lawl at that long ass copy ~n~ paste
  7. Wow that is a pretty good raw test crunch... I mean your right not scientific but it sure does add to the MDF is better then Particle wood Theory..
  8. Best buy also recommend there 8ga kits for amps that can push 1k watts... just cause they have it doesn't make it right.. Particle wood is cheap and the retail business is all about making money... they can build it cheap sell it expensive and make money.... sure it will work, but is it the best... no same with the 8ga kit.... will it work... yes.. is it good the best thing for your system...NO Flexing can not be seen with the naked eye unless its a large system... I do know this though as an installer A person came in with a box made of 3/4 particle wood.... ONE 12" MTX on a 1501 MTX amp Said he was upset cause it sounded like chit... wanted his money back on the sub... sounded rubber band like... The owner was able to negotiate that we make the EXACT same enclosure (since he made his to specs) with no charge and if it sounded the same we would refund the price of the sub... We made the EXACT same box with MDF, same port length, same everything... needless to say it sounded richer deeper and louder.... this could be a rare instance but i do know that boxes made with MDF have a different "sound" then those made with particle wood... I don't know the science behind it as i'm not a physicists but i do know that there is a reason why competitors, manufacturers, High End install shops all use MDF... Cause if there was no significant difference to particle wood I am certain they would use it....
  9. I was talking about the Fi Q vs Fi BL ..... NOT the Tc
  10. theabunai replied to vice24's topic in Fi Products

  14. Yeah that says a lot about Meades character... real classy guy.. even though he got some monsters in the rear, he's careful where he lets them out LOL
  15. OH chit this is gonna get better at the MMAtracker I am at now.... Can i post that link Visitor ? The thread on MMAtracker is going on he says lives in Africa and he messes with lions and chit and he is all cocky.... Oh man he is gonna get flamed now...
  16. thats odd the kid posted it on MMA tracker 2 days ago... Where is this post that shows it was posted a year now
  17. Ok so i thought i would share this with you all... Bare in mind this is a serious post not messing around or joking.. the guy was dead serious.... I take Gracie Jiujitus and frequent a martial arts forum.... In a topic about the International Fight League this guy "Audio" posted that IFL is for idiots... and some other member said he was a retarded dumb kid and this is audios post firing back ... bare in mind brotha was serious... What the fudge? Retarded comments from dumb kids? You had better watch how you talk to me. I not only train in MMA, but I've seen a lion. Not some pucking pussy cat either, I'm talking a real live lion with fangs when I was in a jeep which had no roof and it was just about 4 feet away from me. I could of reached out and touched it if I wanted to and I wasn't scared then, and I'm not scared of you. So next time, watch how you talk to me because I don't know who you think you are, or where you're from, but around here we don't talk like that. ROTFLMFAO So i was wondering if you guys came across some funny post (that usually makes it into peoples sigs)..

  19. hmmm they both hit the lows better just that the BL will take more watts (with a few upgrades) thus giving it output advantage...
