Westbam Members of Mayday Rabbit in the Moon (saw them at UMF a bajillion times too) Ministry of Sound Chemical Brothers Crystal Method Orbital Infected Mushroom Happy Hardcore Front Line Assembly Aphrodite then all the various remixed fringe music like VNV nation, NIN, Type O Negative, Ramstein etc etc etc. Classics!

LoL This was how we used to drop the bass before Skrillex threw it on the ground. :-D

I have a "messenger bag" from when I went to Miami. Still one of the best bags I have ever purchased. Why is it so tough? That bad em effer was for hauling vinyls. Yeeeeeaaaahhhhhhh booooiiii.

^-------that one shows muh age too.

IT IS THE GUY FROM THE PHILLIP DEFRANCO SHOW! LMAO. I haven't heard that in a while.

Classic. Shows my age. I should have been a DJ. Or just born in the 90's. :-D

WTF am I doing wrong with the embed???

Good luck on the paper Lithium. I'm gonna crash I think. Relived my techno days tonight. I remember seeing underworld back at UMF in my early 20's. What a trip. Scaled a wall to get in as the area was cut off because so many people rushed that stage for their set. Wow. Thems were the days.

ucked again. WTH.

Imbeding never works for me...... Here is one showing my age. Aaron knows what this is all about.

I cannot get enough of the jam, Pop Culture by Madeon. Good jams in general by Madeon. Keith makes me joy puke though. One of the funniest guys on the net. Talkin Classics, and self defense FTMFW.

Thank you Scott Bayo

That is a big deal because I break a sweat working the remote control on the TV.

Going to the range, no problem. I'm prone and back up without breaking a sweat.

I doubt I would ever leave it. Unless I got to stairs.

Stefan did you ever get your Vortex back?

I really need to get my fi18 in the living room too. The martin Logan's are over worked. One of them goes into safety mode when the bass gets heavy and loud. Star wars is brutal with the ultra high dynamics. Forget the pod racing scene. I also think this damn Marantz doesn't put out enough volts via RCA.

I'm pushing them with a nice little QSC amp I got for a song. It's been 3 years or so these puppies have been sitting.

Better than a sex swing.

Look fuckin awesome. I'll check it out. I love XBL2. IMO nothing has ever come close. I will cry if my Adire gear ever shits the bed. 16 cubes sounds a bit big, but not terribly. I am basing this off the 15" Brahmas. I know the Tumults were HT drivers, with what one would would expect to be larger requirements then the 15" Brahmas. But they modled very well in ~25% smaller cabinets, and actually performed better in ~30% smaller cabinets. Granted, the FS was not as low (~22Hz IIRC), but the motor was a bit weaker. I'll take some time this weekend to do a bit of analysis for you. While I have only had my hands on the Exodus Shiva X2, it's behavior was very similar to the B12 MKIIs. It wanted a slightly larger cabinet if I were being anal about it, but it did very well in .8 feet sealed. I am assuming SQ is the goal. XBL2 is very transparent, and if crushing output is the goal you will be disappointed. While the subs move air and deliver solid output, their transparency seems to soften their perceived output. That is why I might suggest slightly smaller then recommended for them. It adds a bit of puch, but does not color them a lot. I also trust you have some good mains. They are true subwoofers, and tend to roll off rather quickly over 75Hz. The raw output from my velodyne 12" on 300 watts makes my house shake. Two 18's should do ok with about 8 times the total energy output. Thanks for the help. My mains are energy RC50's. They should do ok.

Seth!!!!! Thanks for the real world info. The boxes would be about 16 cubes..... Not quite enough to mimic IB I think.

....I know a guy with 2 thumbs who needs a headphone amp!
