you need to just come down here for the weekend-----maybe even help with some FINE tuning.

When are you going to Demo the Magnum?----I really want your feedback.

Aaron---you arn't gonna make it this weekend?That sucks

Kyle----glad to have you here.

I know I will be at the State Finals(WV) on the 16th----Jim----you coming?

none---just a plain ol' amplifier----nothing fancy----think of something like a Sinfoni amp.

not if they are hand made by me----I know I can keep my costs low.

Class D by far is the cheapest to build----Class AB for durability and overall power to sound. I have never tried a common ohm power amp---I'm sure that I can find out about them though. I am checking into semi-switching PS----IE---runs Class AB until current is needed and switches then to a Class D----kind of like a hybrid amp. I have desided to make only about 3 or 4 amps----keeping the Beta version for myself of course-----NOW---I am going to be doing this in my spare time and if anyone here knows me knows I don't have much---but I will try.

the first few will be free demos---just to get my name out there.

I am seriously thinking of building just a few amps and see how people like them.

I demo Dire Straits---greatest hits----Romeo & Juliet one of my favorites. Eyna---of course and even the Red Hot Chili Peppers----"Higher Ground" anyone that listened to the Magnum up @ Princeton hear a bunch of differant music in it.

let's say----someone here was to make a limited batch of handmade amps that were very easy on the pocketbook----I have a few questions--- 1----what options would you want---power wise and such 2----what size would be the best 3----what class would you want 4---and finally would you buy from someone here building amps? just wondering

I also agree 1 watt = 1 watt no matter who makes it (Kicker/PPI/PG/whoever) now saying that----when you buy most amps now a days you are paying for filters and eqs and crossovers(stuff I really don't like in an amp by the way) so the power goes by the wayside and you get an over EQed sound(un-natural) but to some people it sounds good---Jim has a good point with Class A amps----not many people run them because-----1=they are too much $$$ and 2= not enough power for "the kids" that are coming into car audio. I will say this in closing-----give me a Class AB amp that can do good power and leave all the EQs and stuff off---please---the SQ in all of us would come out. like I always say----just my 2 cents---take it for what it is worth.

I know I am always looking for better sound----always----be it in home or car-----car audio to me seems to take more talent. in home----buy sub cabinet---install to a good home reciever----buy good sounding speakers and install---then boom----done-----it car there are so many more variatons and it takes skill to get a car to sound as good as a HT. just my 2cents.

I am more than happy with the Brahma. thanks though---lol

Thanks splblazer98----I got home and did some more tuning---the soundstage is now hovering above the dash and alittle further away. thanks again to Jim and all that listened to the Magnum. 137.1 @40hz and proud of it.

Jim---for you van and the air space you have to pressurize---you did VERY well today. PS----for your size van vs my car----you are louder than me!

don't worry------I will be taking pics------and I will be doing demos of the Magnum getting some other peoples opinion it.

I will be there-----can't wait for you to hear the Magnum Jack.

Hell that would be killer if I could make it--------hmmmm-----have to talk to the wife about it.

cough----cough

my next venture will be putting a pair of Extremis 6.8's in the doors of the Magnum

never mind found it-------nero ultra 6

link for DL please

ok---i will be quick about this---I have a few tracks I wanna burn---I put a blank CD in the CD writer----and I am using Music Match----and it says "put a blank disk in"------I do and it keeps saying that-------it is really annoying.-----------HELP!!! I am using all new disks also. PS----i never said I was the CPU Guru
