Even at 100$ an hour, shops aren't making a huge profit

I like it a lot. I'm more of a dark wood person but it works.

I'm not sure if the prices you are referring to are including shipping or not. But of course it is cheaper to build your own box. First you aren't paying labor which often includes overhead. Electricity insurance payroll and property taxes for example. Next you aren't building to make a living, to put food on the table. I have tried the Lowes and home depot but often the cuts aren't straight. I find it is easier to just cut them myself. I understand that you aren't happy about the prices someone sets. Therefore you don't buy that product, but it's far from someone trying to rip you off

Assuming a bathroom, and I agree, not a place for carpet.

So as many of you know I have built several car systems, but I have never had the pleasure of using decent speakers for my front sound stage. So I am looking for suggestions. The vehicle is a 2003 Honda Element, Speaker locations as of this point will be factory. (6.5" door, tweeters in a-pillar). The car does have the integrated amps and sub, but I will be removing all of that eventually. The build will not take place for a while, I'm just starting to plan my build. I will be looking at running an active set up. I am also willing to take advice on amps. I currently have no equipment that I will be re-using. This will be a fresh build. Any thoughts on: TAngband underhung http://www.parts-express.com/tang-band-w6-1721-6-1-2-underhung-midbass-driver--264-874 vs Fountek fw168 http://www.parts-express.com/fountek-fw168-6-1-2-aluminum-midwoofer-speaker--296-729 vs Dayton pm180 http://www.parts-express.com/dayton-audio-pm180-8-6-1-2-wideband-midbass-neo-driver--295-343 I am thinking something like this for tweeter: Tangband shielded neo tweeter http://www.parts-express.com/tang-band-25-302sh-1-shielded-neodymium-dome-tweeter--264-804 Budget is undecided, however I would like to stay around 300$ for two midbass/tweeters. I am also open to suggestions for pods/installation, and I understand there are probably better locations for the speakers, but as of this point I don't see kicks being practical due to the usage of the vehicle.

I loved my sundown amps. Probably the best company to date that I have bought something from.

I see the ia 20.1 is out of the budget range.

You can always ask questions. Welcome to ssa

Nah. I'm here.

All depends on the usage. If it were for use with just a computer with the available jacks I understand. But I use mine for both console and pic so the mic had to be USB and software compatible.

Headphones or headset (with mic). Also corded or wireless. I love my turtle beach p11 s.

I got rid of my 19" monitor because 1080 is small.

If you ever consider buying it. PM me and I'll let you in on the details. I'm not asking for any crazy amount of money, I just got invested in it and feel bad that I don't have enough time or free cash to do what I want.

Thank you Chill And to Mkader, I was surprised to find that your requirements were so hard to meet. When I got my laptop last year, it seemed as if everything met those criteria. Here is one I found so far. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/hp-14-probook-notebook-4-gb-memory-500-gb-hard-drive/1309147878.p?id=mp1309147878&skuId=1309147878

Any brand preferences?

I apologize for the crappy compressed image. The size restrictions on the gallery are bleh.

suv looking thing? I have traction issues in my vehicle also. Planning on selling it for something with even less traction thoughNot an suv at all, 1965 Buick wildcat is akin to a full size Chevy impala, in all reality different soft parts and a more potent power train, but the frame and underpinnings are virtually the same.that's definately not a car you hear about everyday. The previous owner with the car the day I bought it.

What are you looking for? and budget. Any hardware preferences?

The Wildcat is for sale by the way, if anyone is interested. Easy restoration, and the brake issue would be fixed before sale. I just haven't taken the time to finish checking wheel cylinders before just dropping the 40$ for a new master cylinder.

I like where this is going.

Add to that the fact that I still have to fix the brakes to get them to function correctly. :whee:

My wildcat doesn't handle, at all. But the 400+ lb/ft of torque makes for some interesting traction issues.
