What is your favorite breakfast?
The only lame thing about your answer was the medium. Yolks shouldn't be cooked. Definitely interested in the sour dough starter pancakes. Interesting. I love sour dough. And indeed, applewood bacon >> any other bacon *who said a couple perc's in the morning isn't a good breakfast

Fi versus Kicker (i know which is better :P)
BTW, your poll doesn't make a whole lot of sense as the extra qualifiers forced me to change my vote a notch higher. Adding things like "for the price" and "entry level" soften it. Just going Crap, Ok, Good, Great, Fucking Awesome would net you better results. Either way, I bet half the people OR MORE that voted have never used a Kicker anyways. Take it with a grain of salt. Crap. Total crap (5 votes [22.73%] - View) OK for entry level systems or low budget setups (7 votes [31.82%] - View) Amazing---for the price (4 votes [18.18%] - View) Absolutely awesome. Not the best, but amazing nonetheless (4 votes [18.18%] - View) Incredible. None better. (2 votes [9.09%] - View)

Fi versus Kicker (i know which is better :P)
I'd change your box and that boss amp before swapping out the Kickers. Somewhat non-amusingly Kicker gets a bad rap on forums since they are not an internet company and are mainstream. Some of their products really kick ass though, including for playing loud and not being "muddy" on double bass notes. I chose to use a Kicker L7 on my sister's boat for a variety of reasons. It is definitely loud and sounds really good, but it is in an ideal box and everything is setup right. It really is 90% in the install. It is really easy to make a great woofer sound like crap, at the same time you can make a mediocre woofer sound decent as long as it is playing within its parameters. As for your questions on the Q, you and your friend are not Q buyers. This is exactly why in the T&C we request you don't use the term SQ as your definition is FAR from reality. Sure it is subjective so it can be yours, but for the sake of making so we can all talk about it using the one that is closer to competition is much better. If you were truly into SQ you'd be worried about your fronts and wouldn't be that concerned with a sub, but when you chose one it would be to just play the last octave and BLEND well with the rest. BTW, in general that doesn't mean loud, in fact the opposite. Build a box first, get some real power on those and then play some songs and let us know which ones don't play well and we can help you pick a better driver for the application. Until then you might just be changing one problem for another.

It always amuses me that consulting firms hire people without experience to consult. Common practice, but strange IMO. No, not as a consultant, the job is for data entry and other mindless crap A lot of my college buddies were hired as consultants right out of school...

IMO when you buy a camera you either buy a Canon, Nikon or an Olympus. Sure Sony bought Minolta, but they can suck my cock with their proprietary memory and other bullshit. Digital sensors are easy, optics is not. Buy something from an optics company not an imaging company. Personally I am not even interested in Olympus but that is for different reasons. I learned to shoot on an old Nikon SLR, they have always been my favorite cameras for SLR, but I'm not looking for SLR. My step dad is a photographer, he shoots with a D300, but I don't feel like dropping $2K. I'm not looking for ulra-compact either, I'm a man I could care less how much the thing weighs. I want function. And on the cheaper cameras in particular optics win out. I'd personally still only buy from a camera/optics company. Not saying that across the board all the stuff they build is good, but if I were to take a chance it is what I would with. Again I hate the Sony bullshit proprietary shit

I think they should just give me that boat with a lifetime supply of petrol. I'd LOVE to live on the water and be a transient.

Which Speakers ??
If you don't want to lose detail then you need to scrap the rears, but conveniently that raises your budget for the fronts

That happens to me regularly. Something about showing confidence and sorting through produce makes people either want you or want advice.

WTF! Yep, really worth filling out the fraud form. The crazy thing is that the credit card company called me about it less than an hour after it happened.

4ohm vs 1 ohm ?
Same judgement as before. Sell the Epicenter while you still can and buy a reasonable quality amp that makes power at 1ohm.

Wow, SQ even. Going to be sort of cold for that.

Someone bought 10 songs from Itunes on my credit card that wasn't me. If you are going to steal a number, spend more than $5 idiot...

Crap, Aidan won't eat if we feed him but he'll feed himself. Amusingly his first true meal was Indian food as he won't touch rice cereal or other baby food at all. Hates it. Wants what dad eats

No. If you truly want to listen to bassless music and have output you should be looking at beefing up your front stage and not your sub/s. More SQ oriented my ass, just flat out wrong. No way, no how are you going to hear ANY difference on your sub. On top of that in a SQ oriented forum there really shouldn't be a discussion on subs hardly at all as they have hardly any influence on the system. Sure they can ruin the setup, but it doesn't take much to fill in the bottom octave when the rest is right. Site of posers if they truly think it makes a difference. And I am completely SQ oriented and could care less about bass output.
