help with enclosure
The box is smaller than I'd do, but it'll make noise.

If any on that list are listenable, the Eagles' GH is probably it. Because let's face it, other than HFO I don't know of many of their albums that work cohesively as an album... I like Def Leppard's "Vault" a lot. But maybe that's just me. I'm not really into anything much older than 80's so most of that list doesn't concern me.

well, no trout. But we saw one in the water when we were walking in. The wind was in our face at that point though so couldn't really fish from there. we did catch about 10 bluegill, though, so it wasn't a total waste of time. even if they were all as small as your hand . The gf caught her first fish in probably 15 years, so she was happy. I really wanted a trout, though.

they use precision lasers to skim across the vehicle surface and vaporize the dirt off. I would actually guesstimate that it's just another word for powerwashing or something, to make it sound more powerful and better to get dirt off. one of those marketing things.- how should i set up a surround sound in my room?
oh yeah, and then you can build or buy some little like 3' stands to set them on. Maybe one just to the right of your bathroom door there and the other just to the left of the tv.- Welcome to the IHoP
I'm doing pretty darn well. Feel good. Which is in stark contrast to the bad mood I was in last night. I find that happens a lot, things seem to even themselves out. My 16 year old sister and her 3 friends stayed at my house last night. They got up this morning, ate my cereal and bagels, then left without saying anything to me the whole morning. punks.- how should i set up a surround sound in my room?
I'd just build some MT speakers. Maybe just a simple 6.5" and tweeter like Jim suggested. I really like the Dayton References, which can be had on Partsexpress for I think 35-40. Or upper level Vifa's, but I don't know if they sell them on PE anymore (I have Vifa MG's and a peerless soft dome tweet in my surrounds and I love them. I like the tweet better than the Dayton classics I have on my fronts. Wish I'da spent the extra few bucks and upgraded). Then just get a basic receiver with enough inputs to handle your TV, PC, dvd player, VHS, beta player, atari, ps3, whatever. You could probably find a 2 channel on ebay or at a used electronics store or something for 100, and spend only about 200 on the whole deal.- From: 3000 Watt boss amp powering my 18" Bl

so.....I'm playing basketball today. and a dude drives the lane, where I'm playing defense. I go up to defend the shot and he shoves his non-shooting elbow into my face. I fall to the ground with a huge lump on my lip, feeling my front two teeth to make sure they're still there because they're totally numb and I come back out with two fingers covered in blood. and he CALLS A FOUL ON ME. I didn't even touch him. You ram your non-shooting elbow into my face and it's a foul on ME? "It doesn't matter what part of the body fouls me." YOU rammed YOUR elbow into MY face. He's lucky I had a headache and am not a vengeful person because I certainly could have thrown all 5'6" 120 lbs of him across the entire pucking gym and into the opposite wall with enough force to break all his vertebrae. now I probably can't even do it with my gf when she comes over tomorrow because my lip could touch her from 5 feet away.- Wet cell vs. Dry cell
but with a wet cell you don't have to use lube, you know? you know what I'm saying? *wink wink* oh, oops. this isn't off topic. i'm dirty.- Welcome to the IHoP
It's the same way here at KU. If you get under 2.0 for a semester you're on probation, under 2.0 for two in a row get kicked out. But still, even if you get all C's and get a 2.0, that would be better than whatever your cumulative is since it's below 2.0, right? So that's improvement. Should count to me anyways.- Daz & Kurupt song title
well youtube says it failed to convert video file. It's just an .avi though so I don't know what its problem is.- Daz & Kurupt song title
boy, you'd think I would have thought of that? haha. apparently not. It's "processing" on youtube right now. I'll get the link in a bit.- xxx recone to 10"??????
Yeah I was just wondering, not sure if Nick picked up on that when he answered you. It would require shipping you a new basket as well and you'll have to swap that out too. So just a bit more work than just gluing the soft parts in place. That and I just wanted to make sure because I didn't know if the XXX has any major differences between the 10 and 15.- xxx recone to 10"??????
is yours not a 10" sub now?- Stupid question about setting gains.
sometimes there's a bit of a tapping sound, sometimes it starts sounding flat, it usually stops getting louder. you can also watch the excursion. when it stops increasing, that's as much as it'll go. But if you sit in front of the sub and start turning up the gain you'll be able to tell the difference in sound when it starts distorting.- 2 ohm components
those efficiency ratings are kinda worthless. Usually they're only at one frequency, like 1000 hz.- Weird Noise in Honda
does your exhaust run down that side? it could be loose somewhere and the amount/speed of air flowing through at that specific rpm gets it to juggle. also, does it do it at all gears at that rpm? if it does then it's probably something powertrain-related. if it only does it at highway speed, like 5th gear or something, then it may be speed-related and may be chassis/suspension/etc.- Welcome to the IHoP
man today is going by sooooo slowly. Maybe it's because I got in at 8 today instead of 8:15-8:30 like usual. that extra few minutes must just do it for me.- 2 ohm components
I think just finding the right speakers is the best thing, instead of starting from impedence. That's kinda backwards IMO. Not only are there far fewer 2 ohm components, but having less power to better sounding speakers is far more important than more power to something you had to choose based on impedence. IMO. Even if you "only" get 75 watts to your fronts that's more than enough to be loud enough. but those are just 6" mids, right? Why do you want a full component set on top of that and not just a tweeter to match?- Stupid question about setting gains.
I just do it by ear. Sure my ear isn't quite as precise about getting max power before clipping like an o-scope, but...... Haven't had any problems.- 35 hz too high for daily BL?
yeah may as well try it out first, why not? If you don't like it, just make the port a little longer. it's not hard to do.- Budget Setup Suggestions
oh I glanced right over that sentence. um, yeah, don't do that. - Welcome to the IHoP
