  1. oh so "Getting Crunk" all night "niggah" while grabbing your crotch and sipping on "day hinney wd duh dro dawg" isnt retarded? Or maybe "My Nam iz juhan lopaz, ah wok at taco bell, i know 2 engla saying, 'Would you like Taco?' and 'Drive around to first whindow, that will be 5.95'" isnt anoying/retarded? Or maybe "Chie like chikan, chikan goood, let me make good grades and steal your jobs and wreck my car" isnt anoying? or maybe you'd like to live in india so when our (my dads) business customers dont get warranty service from us because they thought "hey let me save a few dollars and buy a dell" your next door neightbor will be answearing the phone with a book infront of them titled "everything you need to say to piss off stupid assed computer illeterate americans with horrible serivce even though you dont know a hard drive from your ass" or maybe you'd like to go up to canada and not know when to speak french or say 'eh all the time (canadian chcks are hot though...or at least the ones ive meet) or maybe it isnt retarded to go on an islamic gehad and blow up some trians or some buildings? but then we do have thoes who'es homes are mobile and cars are not, who have a boat which cannot float which stays in their front yard. (all rhymey) who married his cousin which he met at a family reunion. thing is all races have their retarded people...so lets send them to the moutians of south america with some blankets and firewood or to columbia and get on with our lives ok maybe some of that was a "little" over the top...but who gives a flying ****

    purdy...but id rather not advertise that i have audio in my truck...it've made it a rule to turn it way down when i get withing a mile or so of where im going just for security while i dont have a security system installed yet. however im looking for a white lettered or outlined clear/black inside one (to ocntrast the dark tint) to go in the middle of my back windsheild. maybe SSA.com needs to have a logo competition?? i would get an ascendant sticker made but i just dont like that deisgn enough to put it on my truck. and if i had gotten an XXX i would have had no problem with "RE" and hte nipple or the XXX symbol on my window (no one around here knows what it means). maybe a sticker with just "Team SSA," oval if possible...if you ever make more
  4. my BX1205D is giving good power, and its quite clean (considering its source) and i have yet to have any problems. The new "superclass D's" are sapposed to be doing rated power at 14.4v asumeing the BX1205D has a high dampening factor ( cant remember) i would call this true
  5. +1 but still, even thoes dealer who sell, kicker, RF, excetera STILL say JL is the best...they will tell you a w1v2 will always be louder than a Comp VR when we all know this to be untrue. maybe the day will come when the audio buyer will be just as educated as the car buyer... the problem with the modern car buyer is that a lot of them think the dealer needs to make no proffit, led along the salesman who's main income is comission.
  6. my avalanche 18 uses.... lol though i beleive its a single soft...
  7. Mainstream dealers that know what they are doing. They shouldnt be allowed to call them selves a good dealer/installer just because they took some reterded certification class that says they can cut wood and run a wire. One can learn more than your average local dealer simply by reading around on the internet and exparementing on their own with cheap speakers and helping with as many DIY projects as possible. Much as i did. I did work for a short time at the better of the 3 installers localy and did learn quite a bit. However even after leaving there i learned A LOT more. There should be a standardized test in which they can display saying they are true able to do such and such. This test should consist of taking an old beater and a given budget (they pay for it at least) or given supplies, then making 1.) an SPL system to a certian standard, 2.) an SQ system to a certian standard, and 3.) making a good SQl daily system to a certian standard. Even the Dealer i worked at thought "oh ill just throw som componets willy nilly into the doors, with out proper aiming of the tweeters or anything and call it the best in the business." Companies like JL also need to whip up on what their dealers are allowed to say about their prodicts. I know it isnt JL the company but EVERY single dealer i have met and spoke about stereo's with for any given ammount of time says that the w713 is byfar the greatest driver avalable today. The standard has yet to be broken. Even thoes who know full well about companies liek RE, Adire, Sound Splinter, and others. I would respect JL 100% more if they did with their product like Dan Wiggins is saying he is going to do with his new linup though a delaer network, the dealer MUST be educated though adire to sell adires product. if the same happened with JL a lot of the "JLw7 13 in a power wedge box kills all" would go far far away also, the price per hour of install needs to come down greatly. $71 is the going rate localy if i remmeber correctly. $71!!! for just the cost of a complicated install where they charge you 15hrs + i could have EASILY done the same quality enclosure AND paid for my own drivers. $1000 of equpitment can easily become a $2500 instalation.
  8. also, spyware and adware is no longer blatantly place on your cumputer as porn...they are now being disguised as windows *.dll files among others. another program you MAY need is one called end it all...however...you shall cross that bidge if you come to it. End it all is a VERY dangerous program if you dont know what you are doing...basically it ends all processes (including explorer.exe) except for thoes few vital to keeping windows stable. you have a command promt...which you will have to find specific files with and delete them. however there are few spyware programs which need this type of thorogh removal
  9. woah woah woah... before you go deleting ANYTHING!!! download Adaware SE personal edition. there are no longer updates for 6.0 also it may be time to upgrade your norton to the newest version, i dont know if 2005 does it, but Symantec SAV10 (and 9 too i think) not only scan in the backround for viruses all the time but also adware and spyware. Do you have your DSL running through a router? if not id suggest on getting more than just windows firewall. and why where you expecting to have pop ups just from a switch to DSL???? also, spybot sucks ass, waste of harddrive space. Adaware will catch EVERYTHING spybot will plus more and will more thourghly destroy it. IF you find somehting which adaware cannot destroy THEN look up how to on the net, i may be bale to help you. these PITA programs usually require things such as starting in safe mode and deleting specific "windows" files and regestry keys. Cleaning peoples computers of this crap is a large portion of my dads business when i work in full time during the summer
  10. i used 2 1/2" that i had lying around but i had to get a longer bit, normal dril bits wont reach 2 1/2" back when we had a working air gun i would ise 1 1/4" brad nails it dies in the flood (storage cylender got full of water)
  11. MECA i know has window regs, i dont know about dB drag or ISCA or w/e it is.
  12. ptshhh....drop a penny in nitric acid and have fun (stay away from it though)
  13. if your going over the window line may as well wall it so 4cuft, if results are undesirable try the other enclosure...MDF is like 20 bucks a sheet screw maybe 10bucks for 2 lbs and a $7 thing of wood glue... so if you use 2 sheets thats $57 unless you think you have to make it purdy the window line is what will keep me from compeating any further than local with my current enclosure. but me thinks in a year + senior project...hmmmmm wall or S-2??
  14. i dont havem uch TL experence but this is what i can gather... TermLab mics are vastly more accurate, a lot siffer (harder to get "loud" on them) and they dont wear out and have to be constantly recalibrated everytime someone who is really loud gets on it (wears out the suspension). Also, TermLab takes a lothargic average so you may peak at say 147 but your two closest highs at that frequincy are 143 and 145. there for you will hit a 145 "legal" on the termlab. where has if you can hold a steady peak long enough to register on the AC it is "legal." also ther are stories of hitting outrageous numbers on the AC...like 157.1 with 4 JL w1v2's and a 500w amp in an extended cab truck and some of hitting say 151 and then 15min later going back and only getting 145 with nothing changed... same volume, same atmospheric pressure, same temperature, same vehicle...everything. some say that the 170+ setups that used to be hit on the old AC's are only 160's on Term Lab.
  15. the weird thing is after it warms back up to near room temperature it goes back to its original shape. i was just sitting in the shop searching in internet and then i saw an old backup DVD with a new pack of air cans sitting next to it. so i get one of the aircans out and start fewwzing paper and cardboard and then i was like "hey, plastic gets brittle when it gets cold desnt it?" only in my head. so i spray in one spot and it gets kinda warped but as soon as the frost goes away it goes back...so i decided to drench the whole thing... when i picked it up i could bend it back and forth really easily. then i drenched it agian and threw it agianst the floor really hard...it didnt shadder or brake or anything it just kinda got more distorted...but when it warmed back up it went back to normal... so i tried it on an unburnt CD-R and the same thing happened... now i have to go find my dremel tool
  16. funky thing i just discovered at 1:00am...when you get plastic REALLY cold (like frost bite cold) its gets REALLY plyable....kinda wierd...try it yoruself. get one of thoes air dusting cans and a CD, then spray the airdusting can on the CD upside down so the liquid comes out...drench it, once there is enough room to pick it up w/o getting frost bite you will find it distorted and easy to bend...
  17. because i wasnt paying for it that was part of my b-day presents...and since they where forcing me to take it off the least they could do was get some new stuff back on. besides it would have only saved me $30 and the stuff to remove the glue is like $10 for a bottle
  18. well it wouldnt be a problem if you could see out hte window with out cracking it at night it was 15% on there i beleive...like whats legal for rear side windows where you cant see in at all unless you get right up on it and block glare...and that is what is on the back side and the rear but this had to go on the font/side windows. mine was $100 because they had to srip the tint off and they wernt the ones to install it originally. otherwise it would be $65. the tint isnt what is expensive, its ths skill and time... my dads astro was $155 for legal all around.
  19. AS2 me thinks...but my enclsorue doesnt meet requirements by like 2" with the height. id be in AS1 if the BX1205D was rated to 1000w.
  20. in 2 ways http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...470entry92470 and the old stuff it was illegal and starting to get bubbles just form being old...and my parents said before i can drive at night i had to get legal on there so here it is. "dont roll down your windows and dont tought hte film for 2-3days and come back monday for a recheck" glad my AC works good.
  21. we are in a different MECA class arent we? but i want to hear 153 on the AC...not that fake ::cough:: 157...lol
  22. depends, the vapors may or may not be harmful depending on the rubber used most rubbers today used on drivers are no longer harmed by silicone vapors and the foam ones are treated with certian chemicals that make them resistant to deterioration. but to be safe light the fumeso n fire...lol oh i mean to have fun...
  23. 144.3 in the middle of hte dash on the AC and i forgot to turn my bass knob all the way up, it was set to 3/4 it was on track 19...whic his 38Hz...wow. [email protected] also, the both doors and windows where closed, which isnt MECA style. my nuts where vibrating agianst the seat and my nose tickled really bad. so windows open and mic on the floor and bass knob al lthe way...145 on the AC shoundnt be a problem. and it was a new mic, or so says the owner, so it was still a little stiff, the highest hit on it so far was 149.5 and he geussed mine to be 140dB and hte pansy guy that sat i nthe passenger seat started plugging his ears at 141dB...i tried to talk to him and ask him why...i couldnt hear myself..afterwards he said it was starting to hurt...pansy. so now if i get my 4.5cuft ill tune to 35Hz with the ability to shorten and i should dominate these local MECA comps since im tuned to 27Hz right now
  24. wish my roof flexed like that but my windows are moving a good 1/4 of and inch when rolled down. but i have 1/5 your wattage and im in a truck...lol nice radar movement...id love to hear it some time in person.
  25. rule of thumb is to never mix drivers with any ammount of t/s parameter differences
