I think my biggest problem is that people are just stupid. That "peaceful and nonviolent" anarchist riot where the protesters threw glass bottles that somebody was talking about is the prime example. Nobody knows how to be civil anymore. People say one thing, then do another. So it's almost like I don't even care who is elected president because chances are they'll change their mind on half the things they said once they're in office. So how can we expect a predictable government? And don't even get me started on the media and all their crap. They are probably 1/2 our problem. They want things to be dramatic so that they get ratings, and people always believe the diarrhea that spews from their mouths.

This weekend was interesting. My gf and I went to one of my family's functions on saturday and the political talk in my family is all republican. Then last night we go to her family and they're all democrats. So we heard similar stories about how the other candidate is so bad and they just lost the election because of something they did recently in either camp. My gf wants me to be more political, because I've never been one to care much. Part of it is because of things some of you talked about yesterday. Politics are so controversial and nasty and all that, that it just depresses me. I know this sounds bad, but I'd kinda rather just say fudge it, pay my income taxes, and live without them causing me stress. This may be because I live in an area that doesn't get a lot of federal attention. And I know it's most likely the "easy way out," which I could be criticized for. arg, this country is messed up. The whole world is messed up. I'd move but I don't know where I'd go that's any better.

it is. Maybe she just got done having sex. Or it's some kind of inuendo, like she's offering the cigarette for after the sex she wants to have with you because of the stress she caused with the parked car.

I am glad that I like to succeed, I don't quite understand wanting to be below average. Nothing wrong with succeeding; taking a big ole poopie on people who aren't on your level is what I was refferrrring to So by stating the truth I am pooping on people? If as a society we are severely under cultured for our social economic situation as a country it is better to just flop along and say differently? There is also a huge difference between calling a spade a spade generally and specifically calling someone out. By specifically of course I mean letting them know you are doing it. I wouldn't consider that a question; more like a statement to the current social climate in our country. Amusing since I actually think our level of culture is growing why our economic situation is getting worse. Considering how well off we are as a country though the average person here is pathetic when it comes to realizing what is really important in life. DING DING DING. I'm a little late to the party, but I totally agree. People don't think to look more than 5 feet in front of their face, and what's worse is that even when it's pointed out, they just don't care.

oh jeez, 2.5 cubes for both 15s is cutting them off by a ton. So exactly how much space do you have to work with? If you have the room, a single ported 15 off all 600 watts would likely sound worlds better than what you have now. If you don't, a single sealed 15 in the proper airspace would still likely sound better.

You're welcome. wait, I don't think I did anything. haha. But I will do something now, and that is clear up your misconception about the gain. It's not a volume knob. Just because you only have it at 1/4 doesn't mean you have 3/4 more to get full power. You're probably already getting full power at 1/4 gain.

Maybe that's the cold front that's supposed to hit us wednesday. Today is about 93, Wednesday's high is 68 or 70. wow.

ya thats about how it is here plenty of traffic comin from the east My cousin and her fiancee live in southern louisiana and on their way out of town on saturday a lady ran a stop light and hit them and totaled the car. The lady didn't have insurance or even a driver's license. I'd be so pissed off.

I'd never buy Crunch no matter how much they're actually or just supposedly better than a few years ago. As Adrian said, budget and install goals?

wow, you're REALLY defensive. ha. don't you know about sports these days? nobody wants to wait 2-3 years. They want it all now. I watched the East Carolina-virginia tech game. That was pretty awesome. The ending was great, with east carolina turning it around on VT and blocking a kick and returning it for a TD for the win.

what is the rest of the system like? What speakers hooked to it? Might try taking the DMM to the speakers and make sure they aren't blown.

I would stay away from the ones with LEDs. I had them and it wasn't awesome. After about six months I took it out and threw it against the pavement several times, if that gives you any indication.

sounds like a guy who thinks he knows it all and doesn't know what marketing is yet apparently is a fanboi of all the mainstream brands like Rockford, kicker, JL, etc, who uses so much budget in marketing that their drivers increase in price a ton. That's the ironic part.

I was thinking all the same things. Those amps are crammed so close together and basically sealed in a tight spot. No way they WON'T run hot. The middle amp is losing about 1/2 of its heatsink because it's contacting the other amps. The two on the outside are losing 1/4 from the same thing. You need to put some fans in there.

See if it turns something on?

I don't, but you could probably make one in visual basic or the like fairly easily. You know VB well? I may have some questions later on haha um, no. I took a class in high school (7 years ago) where we worked on it for a few weeks. Basic stuff. I just remember you could do stuff like that.

If you want to cover the whole floor, sides, back wall, and trunk lid, you'll need closer to 30 sq. feet. The dips and rises of the spare tire well, wheel wells, etc., add on a bit.

yes, which is why the thought is retarded.

I'm familiar with the braxial speaker system from CDT, and that's what I want for some rear fill. Are the CDT's any good? Are there other brands that have models with the same format? I'd like to have the tweeter mountable on the mid so that it all fits in the factory door spot, but I want to be able to adjust the tweeter. I almost always have to dial the tweeters down to -3db for my preferences. Hence the reason I don't just want coaxials. There's a chance I could do regular components and just put the tweeter next to the mid, but I'd like to see about this first. I'd also preferrably not like to pay the $450 that they want for the CDT HD braxials.

I don't, but you could probably make one in visual basic or the like fairly easily.

you don't want my job then No, I don't think I do. I'll let you keep it.

we've got an amazing lightning storm going on here we finally got some lightning, but it was after I started going to sleep

it didn't rain/thunderstorm like it was supposed to, dammit.

i hate talking on the phone for a long time
