NP: Hammerfall - At the End of the Rainbow Winamp shuffle is taking me to strange places today...

Not set up for SPL at all.

this guy is a fruit cake. I pwn him by 10dB in a vehicle terrible for SPL, with only 3.5 times as much cone area, with a non SPL driver, and half the power in a more daily tuned box. 137 is TERRIBLE with 1kw...he has 2kw. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I did a 137.1 outlaw with slightly under 1.5 times the cone area, with 250 watts, at nine ohms

Tell that to Loyd Haven't any issues with mine either...

drunkenededness woooo

Reading the "Banned Users" list was pretty funny...

The remote thing, not having Flaming-Cheeto induced assburn.

I know exactly what you mean by that...and I thought I was the only one with that peeve

I need food. Still pissed off.

What'd he do that number with? The number's only half the story...well, a third of the story

the words "trade secret" just scream at me. Maybe you can contact US Amps and find and authorized repair shop on your side of the pond, but I find it hard to believe they'd just let schematics out there to anybody who asked. But I could be wrong, it wouldn't be the first time. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Trade secret, blah Only in car audio would a company feel this paranoid

Note - This is BULLSHIT. Anyway, I'm stuck here for today.

New soundcard? I have a pretty pimp one here...Creative Audigy 2NX... Not sure if I want to sell it though.

I had a brain fart...

Flat dust caps, whatever... the gray ones, you know which ones I'm talking about

Boob-cone Solo's? Man, if those were in good condition...would be very cool drivers

Had another friend with an A'bahn AWT12X running off a JBL BP1200.1, which is about the worst amp to adjust if you're upside down in a trunk and trying to adjust the gains. That thing got decently loud, though...sounded like absolute ass, but was alright for a fart machine.

When I was going to HS, the common thing was JL W0's. A friend of mine had the loudest system with three 10W0's in a sealed enclosure, powered by a PG Tantrum 500.2 - in a Subaru wagon. I think he felt bad when I came back my senior year with the same amp he had running his subwoofers, powering my front stage I was really the only serious competition he had as far as subs go. Man...those were the days when I didn't think sound deadening was worth it, and the install didn't matter as much

pretty much.

I need to: Take a shower Clean out the van for tomorrow Find out how to get to where I'm going Maybe do a late night burger run in Durham, maybe get shot at, who knows

You don't really "tune" a TL to Fs, if you did that, you'd just have a bass reflex enclosure tuned to the Fs of the driver... What the TL does is reverse the phase of the rear wave, which gets you the same effect, pretty much I assume you've read Martin King's website on this, he's the pimp when it comes to ML-TL's and their design...also hangs out on DIYAudio.

Every time a piece of Mac gear comes up on Audiogon or Ebay, all the vultures move in and end up jacking the price beyond the realm of affordability (sp). It could have no tubes, a rusting chassis, missing an output transformer and catch fire and a MC 275 amp would still sell for $400. Just because of the name. You can't tell me they sound that much better vs. something home built, using a superior output topology (because Mac's aren't single ended), that was constructed for a fraction of the price? Doesn't have the name that makes people go "Ahhhhhh", though.
