CLIPPING!!
No thats a good point man. The O-scope is an AMAZING tool, and when used right is an invaluable piece of equipment. I kinda assumed he doesnt have one or a shop that has and knows how to use one. Hence the easy out. J

CLIPPING!!
Volume over half or so can clip the signal. Try keeping your volume knob down, and your bass knob down too. Turn up the gain a tiny bit (MAYBE 3/4) and then play with it but keep the bass knob out of it. Also what are your hu settings at? J

Welcome to the IHoP
I've always heard that much protein... I've heard that much as well, but I've also read that .6 to .9x body weight in protein is good enough also. Though I'm really not sure how much I intake. Let's see. Cereal- 5g 16 oz. milk in the cereal- 16g hard boiled egg- 6g 1/4 lb deli meat in lunch sandwich- ~22g cheese on sandwich- 5g Fruit & nut bar- 8g protein shake w. milk- 30g supper meat- ~40g miscellaneous protein in other supper ingredients- 5g That gets me to about 137g. I weigh 190, so that's a multiple of 0.72. Not bad. Could probably get a bit more. Let me preface everything that I say here is that it's under the assumption that someone is a pretty active person who does a moderate amount of resistance training. By that I'm saying you lift-to-failure(or extremely cose) your muscles with concentric and eccentric resistance several times a week. Well, I say 1 gram per pound of "desired" body weight is the optimal starting point. so if you want to be 200 lbs, then 200 grams of protein per day. That would only be 800 kcal. Then thing is unless you're staving yourself from carbs to some degree the protein will be used for muscle building and maintenance. So.... the kcal don't really equate to energy or actual kcal the way you would normally count them. If you want to be 250 then 250 grams of protein or 1000 kcal. Again though, it's not like it will be burned for energy unless you put yourself into a a state where you're body needs it through some form of specific starvation. Best bet is to consume no more than 50 grams of protein in one sitting, and then wait ~2.5 hours to eat more. So if you're eating to be 250 then I would suggest 6 meals of 41.xxx grams spaced evenly over the day. Lost of guys I know need less, most guys I have helped are at 1 gram or more. I also don't know too many guys who could be 250 pounds lean. Just make sure you drink lots of water. You'd have to be fairly tall or fairly bulky for 250 lean; I'm 6'0" 243 (no, that is not bulk, unfortunately; BF%++) and I'm barely fitting into my 36 pants and XL t-shirts Right now I've just started mixing a pint of milk with two scoops of protein powder...stuff...following each lifting session, ~65g all told. I only lift 3 times a week so I probably won't see much in the way of results for a while...we'll see Eh 5'10 210 and 20% BF...........38 jeans and xl shirts (when I left AZ)............Goal is to be back down around 33" jeans and about 10% bf or so when I redeploy. I think with good diet, exercise and sleep I can do it. Plus I walk damn near everywhere, and 110* or higher in long sleeves, pants, boos and t-shirt is no joke. Also, if you really, REALLY wanna sweat, go take a shit at about 2 pm in a porta shitter in this heat. Talk about sweat ur fuckin ass off. Feels like u just got done showering. J

I LOVE MY NEW LAPTOP!!!!!!!

In about a year
They do survive alot, and are built to last, but I have never liked their style or their comfort level. This new car is all about what I want. Speed, looks, and handling are the name of the game. IF and I stress that again IF I go anything outside of this, its another SUV so I can build a HUGE system, but I doubt that one. J

Welcome to the IHoP
I just ordered a new HP. Both the wife and I had their laptops. Both are bad due to us. One the cord got broken off in the power supply (drunken night in vegas) other one I rolled over and it fell off the bed while I was asleep and fucked up the power supply. It was either 300-600 for new power supply for one or under 800 for a brand new one with 4GB RAM and 500 GB HDD and blue ray. To me it was a no brainer. I just gotta get enough charge on mine to power it up, pull all my old shit off of there and get it going. J

Welcome to the IHoP
Time to order a new laptop.............Looking at an hp with blu ray, 17.1 (maybe 17.3) screen lcd display, 4gb or 6gb of ram and a 500 or 1 tb hdd. Considering the 6 gb and 1 tb version at 500 more is it worth it? 789.00- 4gb and 500 gig hdd 1249.00- 6bd and 1 tb hdd Any opinions? Both are made by HP.
