    Huh? Oscopes aren't for ears...

    not to mention there rules are very strict and they don't get to live like an actual college student. Not sure that they even get to bring a car and there set of dorms have gates and locks so that they can't leave after kerfew and such... We call them the cage kids Funny, I grew up across the street from where I took college classes. Most of my classmates actually thought I was an upper classman since they hadn't seen me much before.

    I went to three proms my senior year
  5. "Getting attention" is ANNOYING. If you really to compensate that much I feel sorry for you.
  6. Depending on the padding it may be a well placed absorber.

    Bowling is more about how many pitchers you can go through than your score
  8. Your story changes as much as your attitude. Neither are acceptable, cut it out right now.

    And MN even pays for it. Post secondary option. Allows high school students to get both college and high school credit for taking classes at a local University/College...and it's free. I went right after my sophomore year
  10. What level is no audible distortion in sub frequencies? What order distortion? What frequency? At what dB? In what alignment? What level above the background are you actually concerned with? .... there are more If you are judging a driver based on a single parameter it is a joke. If you asked the right question you'd ask what sounded better in my install, but you already didn't like that answer.
  11. You want as good of contact as possible, make sure to take the frame down to bare metal and have the terminal make contact as best as it can. Having a washer on top to rotate for the nut can help. I locktite my connections as well as things tend to shake loose.
  12. I bet more than 80% of the votes on CA are from those who haven't heard the sets they voted for

    No. I quit high school and went to college, had no time for sports.
  14. I go to the site, and then I find this

    Neither will really work

    You just made me feel like building a box for my SS RLp. It deserves to be in my family room anyways.
  17. ///M5 replied to mrray13's topic in Off Topic
    "not too pricey" isn't very specific. Going to be cheapest to build your own box and just buy a driver and amplifier. Do you have any subs laying around?
  18. ///M5 replied to mrray13's topic in Off Topic
    Sell it and put the money towards something else. I'd sure bet it is fairly close to maxed out and while you could surely get a little more in a new box, you'll probably kill the driver as well.
  19. You can't "underpower" a sub. The difference between your list will depend more and more on your box. I'd nail that down before deciding.
  20. 1st bold) If your gain was set "low" you would NOT have blown your sub /story 2nd bold) "A little attention" is SUPER annoying and exactly as described. This "little attention" that you want is NOT something we support on this forum. In fact talking about a goal like that is not allowed here. Please read on Fi's site. There is no sealed recommendation for the 15 so I wouldn't include that as an option. If you want an Fi woofer sealed and a 15, get a Q.

    Really, why 175? Why at the heatsink? I am just asking questions because I really don't understand what useful information this will give you. No more detail than, holy crap its hot maybe I shouldn't wang. Spending money, albeit only a measly $35 isn't worthwhile unless it does something for you. I just want to make sure you realize what it will and what it won't do.
  22. ///M5 replied to mrray13's topic in Off Topic
    That was a much more concise description
  23. ///M5 replied to mrray13's topic in Off Topic
    Where do you work or what company do you work for? Just wondering. Not really public information. Generically speaking I manage the worldwide sales team for a very specialized set of measurement equipment. Our focus in is the Frequency domain and making measurements that no one else can do. I do a ton of government research, medical research, electronic technology, microstructure, and other forms of research. We also consult with all of the high end speaker/driver manufacturers to make sure that their parts will do what they expect. Audio is just a side hobby for me, but I have a major in Physics aminor in Acoustics and 12 years of experience working in the frequency domain so I understand that aspect rather well.
  24. There is no recommendation on the 15 for a sealed. You claimed the yellow top aided, I am only commenting to let you know that it is 100% unrelated so that you don't go through the same fate again. I don't want you to come back on the site with another blown driver because we didn't help you.

    Normally I have to lead them...sort of comes with the Director title. Ish. if the coresponding pay, and it's an interesting position though it's worth it many times over. Could be me answering calls about why someones pay is all effed up. Not inspiring. I only call it hell since I'd rather be doing something else, but I do refuse to hold meetings that don't further us along towards our goals.
